Smacking him, I tell him, "Stop!”
He puts me back on my feet. with a hand at my back to steady me.
“I’m free, Fiasca.” Razor beams.
I tell him the situation, and he kisses me thoroughly, following the others.
Frost saunters over. He has a woman next to him holding his arm for dear life.
“Is this your mother?” I ask Frost, giving her a kind smile.
“It is. Mother, this is my girlfriend, Phoenyxx.”
She pulls away, wrapping me in a hug. “I’m so glad you’re alive and well, Caterina. I've worried so over all these years. Your parents must be overjoyed.”
I pull back in surprise, which is mirrored on Frost’s face.
“You knew my parents?”
She smiles softly. “I did, yes.”
I clear my throat. “We are all happy.” I say warmly, not bothering to correct the name.
Frost’s mother nods, her eyes sparkling. “Good. You deserve a good life. My son does also.”
I whisper the deal to Frost, also.
My eyes get misty as he leads his mother inside.
The last car carrying my guys comes through, and I sprint toward it. I didn’t hear the last cars come in, but I’ve been impatiently waiting for this one.
A very shaky Trikk steps out, his eyes red and swollen from crying. I jump into his arms, smothering him with kisses.
“Bambi, my God. My beautiful girl. I did it. You helped me. I love you so much,” Trikk sobs openly into my hair.
My heart hurts for him. “I want some time with you alone, once we get back in, okay? I need you,” I tell him, need bleeding through my words.
Trikk doesn’t answer, just carries me to the door, kicking it to let us inside.
God, I don’t want to freak him out more by telling him about Synn and Purge. He would be hurt worse if I didn’t, though.
“Trikk? Synn and Purge were hurt, but they’re fine. I promise.” My eyes shine with tears.
He doesn’t say a word, his jaw ticking the only sign he even heard me. He is in a really bad way.
The rest of my family waits inside. Hunter, Sam, Valley, and Cynthia all wait, along with Jax and Thor—who’s holding Cynthia’s hand.
They just watch us go, understanding how much my sweet guy needs me after watching everything.
Bryan
My throat is dry as I step from the SUV I was in, full of respect for The Six after witnessing everything. I may not have done much to help, but at least I was there in case they needed me.
I am full of relief that Purge and Synn aren’t more injured than they are. I care for all The Six.
Now, I need my girl.
I hasten my stride to get to the door and inside. I barely get it open when Valley shouts my name and throws herself at me.
