Never in a million years did I think I’d have the courage to kill my parents. They've had me by the balls my whole life. I figured I’d be their whore until I died.
But Bambi got me through it. Now, I can only hope she can get me through the aftermath.
Chapter 35
Phoenyxx
Hands behind my back,I pace the parking garage, waiting for my six loves to return. The need to hold them is overwhelming.
Watching them kill awoke my own bloodlust. I want to hurt and maim someone, but there’s no one take it out on. So, I stuff it down as much as I can and keep pacing.
Two of my men were hurt during this escapade. Synn was fucking shot, and Purge was beaten to a pulp. Needless to say, my anxiety is through the roof.
The sound of the door rumbling has me racing over. The SUV’s come back in, one by one. Synn’s in the first one to park.
His door flies open, and he’s slowly helped out by Maverick. As soon as he sees me, he limps over faster.
“Wife, were you watching? I did it. They're gone. Dead as fuck,” Synn laughs in glee.
I frown. “Synn, you were fucking shot! I almost died watching that!” I look over to Maverick. “Is he going to be okay?”
Maverick heaves out a breath. “I believe so, yes. It missed anything vital. The bullet went in but came back out clean. But he needs to see the Doctor right away.”
I go to say something, and Synn steps forward, shushing me with his lips, kissing me thoroughly.
I need to go with him, but I also need to see how my other guys are doing. I watch as the Doctor appears in the doorway, helping Synn walk from his other side; M
Another door slams, bringing my attention back to the garage entrance. Purge’s voice reaches my ears.
“Iskra, did you watch it? My father is no longer a threat.” He grins, making me sigh. His face is battered with bruises. His left eye is swollen, and his lip is split. His arms are full of bruises, too.
“Purge, you’re black and blue, and you could have a concussion. I was terrified watching that fight. Please, go find where the Doctor took Synn!”
“Wait, what? What happened to Synn?”
“He was shot in the chest. He's okay, though. Maverick said it was a clean shot or something. He was walking and alert.”
Purge pales. He leans in to give me a peck on the lips, then rushes inside the Compound.
More doors open and close, and my other guys come over to us.
Ghost grabs me, making me shiver when he skates his lips over my neck. “Malishka, my father is gone. But my mother...”
He extends a hand to the car, and a shaky woman emerges. She moves to him, eyes darting about in fear.
“Mother, this is the love of my life, Phoenyxx. You're safe now. All the fathers are dead,” Ghost says.
Her eyes go wide, and tears slip out of her eyes as she lunges forward to hug me.
“Thank you, Phoenyxx. Thank you for loving my son,” Ghost’s mother rasps.
I start crying myself, seeing the emotion all over this woman’s face.
“Let’s get you inside.” Ghost puts an arm around her to get her in the compound.
I lean in to whisper in Ghost’s ear, to alert him on Synn and Purge. His eyes widen, and he nods, hurrying inside.
I get tackled by a hug from behind, Razor whooping it up and spinning me around in a circle, making me dizzy.
