“Ohhh, you two made Daddy mad.” I grin.
“Enough from you,” Aiden bites.
Emmett and Lexi cautiously make their way down the stairs and over to us.
Luke sits in his chair, breathing heavily through his nose. He doesn’t scream, doesn’t try to beg them for help. He knows they’re the last people who would.
Lexi eyes up Luke, a spark of fear in her expression. I step in front of her view of him, denying him that power over her.
She looks up at Aiden. “You think you can just leave a text message that you’re taking off to do a job? Where’s the discussion? If we’re going to be a pack, shit like this needs to be talked about beforehand. I understand you have a job that involves a lot of classified information, but that doesn't mean you can just take off without letting us know. If we’re going to be a pack, that means no secrets.”
“I agree, and we’re sorry. We should have sat down with you and talked about it. But we didn’t know how you would feel aboutthisjob, and with your pregnancy, we didn’t want to stress you out or for you to see us differently because of what we do. Also, it was Sloane who texted you, not me.”
Lexi pushes Emmett towards Aiden. “What was that for?” Emmett mutters.
“Waiting to see if you two will throw us under the bus again.” Lexi crosses her arms, glaring at the two.
“Yeah.” I wrap my arm around her shoulder. “Narcs.”
She shrugs me off. “Don’t act like you’re not in trouble too. What thefuckis going on?”
“Would you believe me if I said I got you a present?" I ask, stepping to the side. “Ta-da! I present to you, your rapist foster brother. Wanna help us kill him?”
“Sloane!” Aiden growls.
“What? She knows we kill people for a living.” I look at Lexi. “Shit. Does this freak you out or something? Did we fuck up?”
“Oh, you fucked up. But not because you have that sack of shit tied to a chair. It’s because you lied to us.”
“Soooo, you’re not gonna run for the hills if we kill him?”
“No.” Lexi looks at Luke. “And I’m not going to help you kill him. But...” She looks at us. “Iwillsit back and watch.”
“I’ll help,” Emmett growls. “I’d love nothing more than to see this fucker dead.”
“Sugar tits, can we calm down the murdery Omega vibes? It’s giving me a boner, and I don’t want to give poor Luke here a complex because his cock is the size of a baby carrot.”
Lexi snorts. I shoot her a grin, but my girl glares back at me. Fuck. I’m in the dog house. It will be worth it once this fucker is dead, though.
“Remember me?” Emmett asks, stepping in front of Luke. “Yeah, you do,” he laughs. “How does it feel to be helpless? To be held against your will and have people do things to you that you don’t want? Isn’t very nice, is it? Maybe you should have thought of that before you raped my Omega,” he growls. “Or before you thought it would be fun to make me your little sex bitch. Being an Alpha doesn’t give you the right to abuse your power. Now my Alphas get to give you a little taste of your own medicine."
“Wait. You know Luke, too?” Aiden asks.
“Yeah,” Emmett murmurs. “He was a frequent flyer at the strip club I worked at.Lovedto get private lap dances. Only dancing wasn’t what he wanted. He used the place as his own personal sex club. And because I was forced to do what my boss wanted, I had to take every fucked up thing he’d like to do. You wanna know why I had a hard time feeling sexually attracted to men? He’s the reason.”
A new wave of outrage fills me. I turn my murderous glare to Luke. “Oh, you motherfucking bastard.”
I raise my fist and punch him in the face. He screams against the gag. I hit him again and again. Blood pours from his nose, his eye is starting to swell.
But I don’t stop, not until Lexi grabs my arm. “You’re going to kill him.”
“That’s the point,” I pant heavily, giving her a wild-eyed look.
“Not until Emmett has a go at him.”
My eyes flick to the Omega in question.
“You want a crack at him?”
