“Shut your goddamned mouth,” he snarled.

“Do not speak to me that way!” I snapped back, then threw my hands in the air. “I should never have come. There’s obviously a reason my sister kept him from you. I should have let sleeping dogs... no, I should have left you to howl at the moon all by yourself.”

I hit the key fob, unlocking my car and attempting to make a run for it. But Stoney was too fast for me.

“Stoney, seriously,” Wyatt warned. “Let her go.”

“Stoney,” the big man warned.

He released me with a hiss, and I rushed to my car, getting the fuck outta Dodge before anyone could stop me.

Stoney

Iwatched her go, mymind racing. Pulling my phone out, I searched her name and got nothing but a business profile, which pissed me off. My rage on ten, I stalked back inside and bellowed, “Sierra!”

“Stoneman, you need to take it down a notch before you talk to Sierra,” Sundance warned. “Wrath’s not as patient as I am.”

I dragged my hands through my hair and nodded. He was right.

But first, I needed to apologize to Wyatt because I’d been an ass. I saw her talking to Orion’s woman, Raquel, in the kitchen and headed that way. Despite my treatment of her, she smiled as I approached which made me feel even worse.

She smiled again. “You don’t need to apologize. I get it.”

“Shoulda treated you gentler just the same.”

She gave my arm a squeeze. “Well, thank you, honey. I’m good.”

“Appreciate that. You know where Sierra is?”

“She’s in Sundance’s office,” Raquel answered. “She wants to make it more feng shui.”

I raised an eyebrow. “Does he know that?”

“What he doesn’t know won’t hurt him,” Wyatt said, and I shook my head.

“Fuckin’ nut.”

“Eccentric,” Raquel countered. Sierra was her best friend and Raquel would defend her to the death.

“Same thing,” I retorted, and made my way down the hall.

Wrath stood in the hall, peering into Sundance’s office, his hands on his head, glaring into the room. “No.”

“Come on,” Sierra said. “It’ll work much better for him.”

“We’re not touchin’ anything in this office, Sierra. Get it out of your mind.”

“His chi is blocked, Wrath. It’s why he’s so stressed out.”

“Or he could be stressed because his woman’s pregnant and he’s the president of an MC.”

“Wrath—”
