I love my sister, but she’s so damn stubborn. I love her for it, though.
Now that I know my sister is safe, I it’s time we end this.
Their bodies are hung up in front of us. The very people who played the biggest part in the hell we went through in this mansion.
y attention, however, is on my sister. There’s a bruise forming on her cheek, and I can’t help but feel guilty. I know she chose to go off and do her own thing, she's her own person, but she’s my sister and I hate seeing her hurt. Meanwhile, not a hair on my head was harmed.
I know I had to play it safe, I have the baby to think about but I wish I could have done more to help. I wish she didn’t feel like she had to take on so much of this herself.
“Anyone want to help?” Harlan asks, picking up a mallet.
“Lexi and I can have a go at it,” Aries says, pulling me along.
Staring up at Gideon, I wrinkle my nose. Someone stripped him of his clothes. I could have gone my whole life without seeing him naked. Hishumiliation is worth it, though.
“Here,” Briar says, handing me a forked pick. “Have at it.” She nods toward Beth who is strung up beside Gideon.
Holding the forked pick in my hands, I grin, aybe a little too devilishly, and take a wack. The sound of iron hitting her flesh feels powerful.
I hit her again and again, the others eventually joining me.
I go until I’m out of breath and my arms hurt before I take a step back.
“Man, I needed that,” I laugh, feeling exhilarated.
“Should we wake this asshole up?” Isidro asks, setting a car battery on the ground.
“What is he going to do with that?” I whisper to Aries.
“Watch and see.” She grins.
I have a feeling things are about to get a lot more fucked up than they were when the guys went after Luke.
I’m part nervous, part excited.
They attach the car battery to Gideon’s toe, and his body starts to convulse. I can’t help but grin in satisfaction, finding this a lot more healing than I should.
e’re all wracked with trauma here, we deserve a pass.
His eyes snap wide open, and his mouth drops to release a scream.
“Rise and shine,” Briar murmurs.
I like it better when his eyes are closed. Seeing them now makes my stomach drop.
“Hey, G,” Silva says. “How ya doing, ole buddy, ole pal?”
“You should have been put down like dogs!” Gideon yells, breathing hard as he looks around the room.
“Yeah, yeah.” Silva shrugs, digging the weapon into his chest. I had no idea my sister had something like this in her. Maybe I don’t know my sister as well as I thought I did. I’m going to have to rectify that soon. We’ve had too much time apart, soonce we’re settled into our new lives and all the girls we saved tonight are situated, I’m adding a dose of Silva to my daily life again. I miss her so damn much. “We aren’t going to lie on our backs, submit, or accept anything less than our freedom. Not ever.”
“You’ll do what you’re—”
“No Alpha barks!” Harlan yells. “Bad puppy. Behave for the nice, psycho Omegas.”
That makes me snort a laugh. I mean, he’s not wrong, we’re all a little crazy tonight. But it’s warranted, considering who’s before us right now.
I’m happy to take a step back from everything to watch my girls get their pound of flesh.
