He’s worried. I understand that and I can’t blame him for it.

“Aiden.” I step up to him, taking his face between my hands. “Please understand that I need this. I’ve spentyears, sick with myself for knowing we had no power to take him down. That he was still out there doing to other girls what he did to us. Selling poor girls who don’t deserve it! We’re ending that. After all these years, it ends. No more girls will be hurt because of him and Iwillbe part of that. t would mean the world to me if you would support me on this.”

He looks gutted. “I can’t lose you,” he whispers.

“You won’t.” I smile. “Not when we have a team of people. They won’t even see us coming.”

Sloane walks through the door. “Ready? Everyone is at Silva’s place.”

Aiden sighs. “Yeah.” He nods. “We’re ready.”

“Thank you.” I lean up on my tiptoes and kiss him roughly.

An hour later, everything the Alphas have planned is in place. I know what I need to know, and that's it. Aiden will be going with his brother to handle things somewhere else.

“We’re really doing this?” Emmett asks as we head back to our house.

“Yeah, we are.” I’m filled with nerves, a sick feeling in my stomach, but also on a high knowing that tomorrow night, Gideon and his operation will be obliterated. Erased from this world.

I know it doesn’t put an end to all Omega trafficking, but it’s one less monster we have to worry about.

Hope you enjoy the next twenty-four hours, Gideon. t’s going to be your last.

We’re sitting in the living room of the house the guys rented, not far from Gideon’s property.

I feel sick. I can’t believe we’re actually doing this. What is wrong with me? We coulddie!

“Peaches, breathe.” Emmett’s hand rubs up and down my back. “It’s not too late to back out. You don’t have to go. No one is making you and no one would blame you if you chose to stay behind.”

“I’m not staying,” I tell him, my eyes glancing around the room. It’s packed, everyone here is ready to play their part in this operation.

And I’m going to be right by their side just like I have been for the last thirteen years. Just because we don’t spend every day together doesn’t mean I don’t have a bond with these women. They’re my friends, my chosen family. We have been through so much together and came out on the other side. And we’re going to do the same tonight.

“You good?” Silva asks, searching my eyes.

I give her my best smile. “I’m perfect. Are you ready?”

“Yeah.” She nods. “It’s going to be over, Lexi, finally. After all these years, he’s going to be put down like the dog he is.”

“I can’t fucking wait.”

The guy’s plan is get us in, let us girls have our chance to take the lump of flesh we’re owed, and then Aiden and Harlan’s contacts in the government will come in and clean up the mess. The guys will do all the grunt work, and we’re reaping the rewards. I’m not the first choiceto plan these kinds of things, but if you tell me what to do, I’ll get it done.

“We’re going to sneak in just like we talked about,” Harlan, Aiden’s older brother, addresses the room.

I’ve been around him a few times, but haven’t had a conversation with the man. He looks a lot like his brother; handsome, only more scary? Guess we’re both lucky to end up with some good looking Alphas. Leave it to Silva and me to find ourselves brothers to pack up with.

We plan to break into two teams once we’re inside the mansion. Lark will be on one team, doing what she does best with her hacking skills. Kyren, one of Silva’s new men, who happens to be the hacker of the guys’ team, will go with the other group

We will go in, search each section for the different age groups of girls, grab them, and help them escape. We will all be in the lookout for that son of a bitch Gideon.

Sloane and Emmett will be by my side the whole time, so I know I’ll be safe.

I can’t believe he’s doing it. I can’t believe Gideon is having another party.Theparty.

Actually, of course I can believe it, who am I kidding? This monster will do anything for money and power.

Now not only do we get to take down Gideon, but all his slimy friends who came to buy a damn Omega, too.Buy! Like we’re fucking cattle or something. Fucking sick pigs.
