Reed
I watched as my new Ol’ Lady walked up to my asshole evil twin and slapped him hard across the face. I couldn’t help but smirk. She was so hot when she was in a bad mood like that, and Kyle knew damn well he deserved it. “If I were you I’d watch your damn mouth around my Ol’ Lady,” I warned him, nodding to the fiery look on Elena’s face.
Kyle looked at her more closely, finally noticing the cut now. “What the hell kind of cut is that?” he asked, surveying the unique patch I had specially made for my beautiful Siren. She was my Ol’ Lady and the Prez of another powerful MC she inherited from her dirtbag father.
“I’m his Ol’ Lady, but I’m also the Prez of the Vipers. Pretty sure that’s why he said to watch your damn mouth and listen to me. Like I said, you need to fix your shit with Daisy. I’ve never seen her like this, and I have half a mind to punch you in the damn balls right now for being such a piece of shit. But you’re Reed’s brother, so I’m going to give you one more fucking chance to act the right way.” Damn, Siren was pissed good today. It was going to be a great day to wipe Jimmy off the face of the earth, then. And then they could take it back to the bedroom and celebrate.
I felt myself getting hard just thinking about it and shifted in my seat. “Do what she says if you wanna stay here, bro. I don’t know why the hell you’re here, and I have more important things to do right now than care. But you dropped this MC in my lap and disappeared, so you have no say any longer. And if you’re going to be here, you’re not going to be making my members cry or pissing off my Ol’ Lady, is that clear?” I glared daggers at him, hoping I got through to the guy.
Brother or not, I never had understood him. But he had been my father’s right-hand man and the natural go to lead the Skulls Renegade MC. Kyle dropped it in my lap a year after getting it and walked the fuck out if our lives.
Kyle nodded and got up, getting in Elena’s face. I stood up with my fists balled up, ready to rearrange his fuckin’ face, but all he said to her was, “Sure thing, Irish,” before walking out into the bar, calling for Daisy.
I gave a one-sided smirk before coming out from behind my desk and heading straight for my Ol’ Lady. Man, I never thought I was going to say that about any woman. Sure, I had been with plenty of chicks looking to get some from a Prez, but there had never been any woman that I thought could stand by my side. But my siren was damn tough as nails, and I knew it from the moment she walked into that bar like she owned the place that she was bound to be mine.
I pushed Elena against the wall and planted one on her, letting my hand enjoy her thick thigh for a moment before pulling away. We couldn’t get lost in each other just yet. There was some business to take care of. “Good morning, Siren. I see you’re in a mood. Are you ready to put that to use on Jimmy?”
Instead of anger, I saw her face visibly droop and knew that she was still haunted by that motherfucker’s existence. And she was no killer, but I was sure that the death of this asshole was going to turn her life around more than she could even imagine. And it was going to satisfy my burning hatred for a man I should have never had dealings with. It made me fuckin sick that this man tortured the woman I loved when she was just a child and dared to kill her own mother in front of her. There was a special place in hell for bastards like that, and he was going to figure that out real soon.
“I don’t see any reason to wait any longer. Where are they keeping him?” she asked. Little did she know he had been holed up in the basement with 24/7 guard this whole time. That place was a padded-up torture chamber. Not even one of us above ground could hear him scream.
“Grab your Glock and follow me,” I told her, leading her past the bedroom to grab the gun she’d kept hidden since she got there. I’d had my slight suspicions about her before; I wasn’t as stupid as people sometimes took me for. But it did take me by fuckin’ surprise when she used a badge to get us out of a ticket. She was something else.
She tucked it away in the pocket of her cut, and I held my hand out to her. We were going to do this together, just the way we would do everything from now on. We were going to be unstoppable as the Prez and Ol’ Lady of Skulls Renegade MC.
There was a little-known entrance into the basement through the laundry area; just a small little hole in the floor with some stairs leading down into the dark. But as we descended this time, it was lit up by the dim lightbulb swinging free in the very center of the room.
The basement wasn’t much to speak of; just concrete and a water heater. We had a few pieces of junk down there. Otherwise, it was meant for exactly the purpose we were using it for now; holding prisoners. Seamus, Enzo, and Dmitri were all down there, taking a couple of lame shots at the old man who looked worse for the wear. Other than the shit eating grin he shot through his bloodied mouth at Elena, there was nothing recognizable about him. I had made sure he had been fed nothing but gruel and that he was being kept quiet and weak down there until Elena was ready.
“Well, well, well. If it isn’t my little bitch of a daughter. Have you come to bust out my knee caps again, or are you here to be the little weakling you always were and set me free?” he asked, spitting up blood the whole time. I noticed his teeth had recently been kicked in.
I went straight to the corner for a baseball bat and pulled out my own gun to train on him. “Leave the three of us the fuck alone now, guys. He’s all ours. Thanks. Oh, and Enzo, Seamus, keep a close, damn eye on Kyle, would ya?” The two men nodded, keeping their weapons trained on Jimmy until they were halfway up the stairs.
“I’m here to watch the light go out of your fuckin eyes for what you did to Mom,” she told him point blank with gritted teeth. “I’m here to watch you pay.”
Jimmy spit more blood and pus out at Elena, and I went at him with the bat. I cracked it only lightly against his shoulder. “I didn’t hit you any fuckin harder because I am pissed off, asshole. This is not going to be a fast job today, Jimmy. You see, it takes the worst sort of coward to shoot his own wife in front of their children and even more so to beat the shit out of an innocent little girl.
Well, that little girl grew up to be my Ol’ Lady, and I’ll be damned if anyone hurts my Ol’ Lady and lives to tell the tale.” I was drooling with anger at this point, staring down evil incarnate as I swung the bat again, going for his already banged up knees.
“Get the fuck up!” I screamed at him as he let himself fall over, looking more like an injured Santa Claus than the beast he had pretended to be for so long. But I knew his rep well enough to know that he was just a shithead hiding behind his MC.
He followed my directions, but he did so, laughing maniacally through the pain.
“Stop fuckin’ laughin’.”
He was driving me insane, and it took all my willpower not just to end him right there. Instead, a cracked one across his other shoulder, snapping the bone. Jimmy faltered and screamed in agony for a moment, and I glanced at Elena, making sure she saw his pain. She deserved that.
But then the motherfucker got back up to his knees like the sick cockroach he was and spoke his last. “I see how my little whore worked her way into your bed. You talk too damn much, Reed. Your father or brother would never have let an FBI agent in their midst.” Reed glanced back at Elena for a moment as her eyes went wide. “That’s right little baby, I’ve known for years that you’re a fuckin government snitch. I should’ve popped one right in your skull when I had the chance.”
Elena didn’t hesitate, pulling out her Glock and getting him point blank between the eyes. He fell over with a thud, bleeding out onto the concrete. Elena dropped her piece as she sank to the ground shaking.
Obviously, we had some shit to clear up, but first, she needed me. I wrapped my arms around her and rocked her back and forth until the shaking turned to tears. “He’s fuckin dead, Reed. He’s gone.”
“I know, babe. It’s all over. He only has the devil to torture now.”
