Blood shook his head.“We can’t try to guess how these assholes think – it’s a waste of time.Lark do you have cameras working?”

“Yeah, and Adam’s putting in another to catch the adjacent parking lot, since that’s where they parked yesterday.”

“Do you need a couple brothers outside for the next few nights?”Volt asked.

“Wouldn’t hurt, even if my gut says no.”

Blood glanced around the room.“Who’s in for tonight?”

“I am,” Tundra said, his voice firmer than I’d ever heard it.

Volt frowned.“You sure?You’re at Platinum’s tonight.”

Tundra gave a slight head shake.“Dayside.I’m off at five-thirty.Plus, I’m used to dealing with assholes like them.”

“Your call,” Volt muttered.

Cal, Beast, Razor, and Liar were all-in to patrol the parking lot.It felt like overkill, but I sure as hell didn’t want my siblings, or anyone else, to go through that shit either.

Lark leaned forward to get Volt’s attention.“I’m giving Nickel the night off.”

I looked at Lark with questioning eyes.

“Don’t argue,” he muttered.

It flew in the face of what Lark had told us – no days off – but for once I wouldn’t argue.The ache in my groin was killing me, and I knew just the woman to help me with that.

“Think that’s the most sympathy I’ve ever seen from Lark,” Blood said.

Lark glared at Blood.“He’ll make it up at Thanksgiving.”

Great.Though, that might work out in the long run because Mom wanted all three of us back in Biloxi for Christmas.It was too soon to talk to Lark about those plans.

Ricochet cleared his throat.“I have a question.”

Volt nodded for him to speak.

“How about I let them take me?”

“They aren’t going to come back that soon,” Patch, our treasurer, said.

“They’re dumb enough, they might,” Lark said.

“No.I don’t want you doing that,” Volt said.

“Standing offer,” my triplet said.

“Same,” I added immediately after.

“They gave you a concussion,” Lark said.

“Yeah, and I want the mastermind behind it shut down.”

“You two earned your patches, but remember, we don’t do shit solo,” Volt said.

“Or duo,” Blood added.

“Got it,” Ricochet said.
