“Is that your jizz?” Volcano asked.

“Brother, I didn’t touch the cunt, but nobody said we couldn’t look.” Tonka smirked. That smirk disappeared in a mist of blood as Volcano drew his weapon and shot Tonka straight in the face.

A scream rose and died as Volcano turned dead eyes on me. “Who else hit you?”

Fear had swallowed me whole, and I couldn’t reply. Badger took a step back, and his actions gave him away. A second bullet took his head, and Shannon squeaked.

“If I give orders, I expect them to be followed. That’s what will happen when you assholes think you know better than me,” Volcano said. “Take her in, and don’t harm her. She’s Fury’s property.”

Two guys grabbed and dragged me inside, not even caring I held Sadie and Shannon. As we entered, I was surrounded by rough men who all began howling and calling out shit. Petrified, I curled around the kids to protect them as best as possible. Men shoved me, and hands groped my ass and pussy. I caught sight of a man moving towards me, who looked worried. Somebody snatched Shannon from my arms and threw her to the ground.

A cry left my mouth as Shannon started crying and curled into a ball. Someone kicked her as my top was torn open, and rough hands groped my breasts. They didn’t care that I still held Sadie.

“Enough!” Volcano roared, and I jumped in fear. Scared stiff, I wondered if he would help me, but Volcano’s next words sent chills down my spine. “Shut that brat up.”

I grabbed my blouse and picked Shannon up, murmuring soothing words in her ear.

“Let me go, please,” I begged Volcano. He’d shot two men for touching me, and that man had just groped me. Would Volcano shoot him, too?

“Ain’t happening, bitch. Carmelle, ain’t it? Couldn’t your fuckin’ mother pick a normal name?” a voice demanded.

I faced an older man who had disgust etched onto his features. Desperately, I tried to get away from himand the menace that wafted off him, but he trapped me.

“Who are you?” I screamed.

He reached out and grabbed me by my throat and began squeezing. I wanted to claw his hands, but I’d drop the kids. Surely, he wasn’t going to kill me in front of my babies?

“Those girl or boy children?” he demanded. His cut displayed Wrath on his name badge.

“Girls,” I choked out.

“Fuckin’ useless to me,” Wrath snapped. He punched me straight in the face, and I felt something crack.

Everyone around Wrath began laughing and howling again as I fell backwards. I couldn’t get my hands out to brace me and took the impact full on. Shannon was now completely silent, and Sadie seemed to be sensing the fear because she was so quiet it was unnatural.

“Volcano! Take this useless cunt to a room. And keep those fuckin’ kids quiet,” Wrath yelled. “Drake Michaelson can go fuck himself!” Wrath crowed.

Who the hell was Drake Michaelson? I didn’t know anyone of that name. Was this a case of mistaken identity?

“Move before Wrath decides to do worse, and he’s capable of it,” Volcano murmured.

I began walking, and with Volcano with me, not a single person touched me. Volcano shoved me towards some stairs, and I started climbing them. With his hand on my shoulder, he steered me towardsa room at the end.

“Nobody is opposite you, but I’m next to you, and I do not like being disturbed,” he hissed at me. “Keep those kids quiet and out of sight of Wrath. He’ll kill them and not care. Make a list of what you need, and I’ll get a whore to get you shit. Be grateful, and don’t ask for crap. You’re alive on Wrath’s whim. Draw attention to yourself or cause trouble, and Wrath will punish you. And you won’t like that punishment,” Volcano warned, shoving me into the room.

“Those men shot Beau.”

“Huh?”

“Beau’s my husband, is he alive?”

Volcano briefly showed empathy, then it disappeared.

“There’s some shit for the kids to keep them quiet. Meant what I said, bitch. Ignore my warning and suffer,” Volcano replied.

Volcano stomped out, and the key turned in the lock.

I sank down onto the bed and, gathering my babies, I began crying softly. What the hell was going on?
