Doing as he asks, I watch as he pulls the door up slowly, groaning as he does. Moving to help him, Abbott and I help to lay the door on the other side of the ground. It’s amazing how camouflaging grass can be.
“I’ll be goddamned,” Abbott sighs as various vehicles surround us.
Henri gets out of the SUV, his jaw falling as he sees what we found.
“Load up the equipment to keep it out of the rain, we’re going in,” I say softly, not knowing how much my voice will travel underground.
The stairs go down into the darkness, and Abbott begins to bark out quiet instructions as we move to the back of the vehicle that Greig drove in.
“Grab jackets, even if it’s hot,” I grunt, yanking one on. “With the auction, I doubt we’ll find Bellamy and our girls clothed.”
Nodding, Abbott also strips out of his tank top to pull on a t-shirt and windbreaker. There are built in holsters in our pants and jackets, and we load up on firearms, ammunition, and other weapons.
A gun isn’t always the best option.
“Let’s go,” Abbott says, looking at the two of us to make sure we’re ready.
“Don’t get cold feet on us now boss,” I mutter. “I don’t want the job, I just wanted you to get your head out of your ass.”
“Fair,” he says, his hand fisting in my shirt to pull me into a fast kiss. “I love you too. Let’s go get our people.”
“Ready,” Shi says, his bag holding a lightweight laptop just in case.
After having been without because we’d been taken by surprise when our pack members were taken, it’s better to be safe than sorry.
“What do we want to do with Jake?” I ask as I sling my bag of toys over my head. “Other than murder?”
“Oi!” Abbott says, getting everyone’s attention as we walk around the vehicle to join them. “Jake, as you probably know, helped to kidnap members of my pack. I want him alive so Cassidy can murder him slowly and to her liking. You all know how brutal she can be, and something tells me she’ll need this. We all trusted the fucker. But, if he can’t be taken alive, dead is dead.”
“Yes, boss,” everyone says with a nod.
Abbott makes sure several people stay back to guard the door and our vehicles, and then we’re going down the steps as the first raindrops begin to fall.
“Close it up behind us,” I say over my shoulder. “You’ll know it’s us coming back out.”
Our men nod and close the door with the help of each other as flashlights get turned on around us. We’ll turn them off as soon as we know we won’t tumble to our deaths. I can’t see a damn thing as it is.
Hold on, loves. I promise we’re coming. It just took us longer than we planned.
Chapter
Thirty-Four
CASSIDY
My body joltsas cold water is sprayed at a vicious speed all over my face. My hands are tied behind my back, and the huge ball gag is already making it difficult to breathe because I’m drooling so goddamned much. Now, to add insult to injury, I’m also being drowned.
Fucking perfect.
“Wakey, wakey, hands off snakey!” Avery says brightly, moving the hose away from me. Mucus and water pours from my nose as I choke and shudder on the ground and Avery rolls her eyes as she hoses me off again with disgust.
This time, she doesn’t keep the water on for as long, so I’m able to hold my breath briefly. I have no idea how Bellamy was able to hold his breath for as long as he did to avoid being speared and poked with holes by this bitch.
Blowing out a breath, Avery shrugs. “Well, you don’t have a dick, so we’ll just pretend. You look like a person now! Your bush is cleaned up, hair and body aren’t filthy, and you’re as ready to be fucked to death as possible.”
This cunt is going to die as soon as I can manage it. I groom, dammit, and I don’t have a fucking bush. Avery is baiting me. Too bad for her, I don’t care about her opinions. She’s called me a cow and mooed at me while I was being raped.
I fucking hate her.
