He let go of the string, letting it slap down against my crease. I puffed out a breath of air from the slight pain and the sensation. I turned back and shot him a dirty look. What the hell did he think I was going to do? Go out and find someone to sleep with?

He grinned and winked at me. I felt the wink all the way down to my clit.

Fingers ran along my ribs, and I turned to find Maverick standing close to me, a dark look on his face. “This is new.” His blue eyes found Killian from behind as he traced the tattoo over and over again. “Your doing, I’m guessing.”

“You’re welcome,” Killian answered him. I resisted the urge to turn back around and kick him in the shin. Maverick chuckled. I resisted the urge to kickMavericktoo.

I looked over at Silas, who was grinning at me. He promised to help me take revenge on Killian, and I had already decided what I wanted to do about it. And I knew Silas could see that from my face. His grin widened, and a devilish glint entered his eyes. My lips twitched.

Maverick brought my attention back to him when he placed two fingers beneath my chin and turned my face to him. His gaze roamed over my features, and I worked hard to keep mythoughts from showing. I probably didn’t do such a good job because he turned back, looked at Silas, then at me.

He let out a small laugh and shook his head, bending his face down until his lips grazed the side of my face. “Oh, you are just trouble, aren’t you, sweetheart?”

“I don’t know what you’re talking about, and if you guys have had enough, I would like to get dressed and leave.”

His chuckle deepened, causing his chest to rumble against me. I closed my eyes briefly and took in the sensation, my hands coming up and gripping his shoulders. He moved in closer to me.

“Let’s go, little monster.”

I felt Killian shift behind me before the dress was pulled up around my body once more. Maverick stepped back as Killian draped the straps over my shoulders, his lips following behind as he zipped me up. I took a deep breath as Killian joined his brothers until all three stood before me.

“How do I look?” I asked, my fingers running through my hair. They hadn’t touched it, but there was a part of me that couldn’t help but fidget.

“Beautiful,” Maverick said possessively.

“Ravishing,” Killian answered darkly.

“Fucking hot,” Silas said, a wicked smirk curving around his lips before he stepped forward and wrapped his arm around me. “I can’t fucking wait to show you off, angel.”

Before I could respond to that, he was already leading me out the front door, Maverick and Killian following close behind.

I barely heard the door closing behind us. I was too giddy taking in the expensive, sleek black car parked out in front. It stood out among all the crappy cars around the motel and had already garnered attention from some of the motel’s guests. A familiar man stood by the car. I remembered him as the one who usually drove Maverick around. His name escaped me now.

It wasn’t like I was really focused on him. My attention was on the group of men standing a small distance away, whispering among themselves as they took in the car. In the middle of the men was Billy. He was still at the motel. I had thought he left when I didn’t see him in my comings and goings.

He was still here. My heart rate sped at the sight of him as I thought back to when he had me cornered.

“Angel?”

I turned to Silas. He frowned down at me before turning his gaze to the group of men I had my eyes on.

When he turned back to look at me, there was something dark on his face.

“Which one?” he asked quietly.

I shook my head, not knowing how to answer him. If I did, there was no guarantee he wouldn’t kill Billy, but was what Billy had done really something he deserved to die for?

I didn’t know, and I didn’t want to play the role of judge, jury, and executioner. I wasn’t like the brothers. Even if being more like them would help me better adapt to the world.

I shook my head.

Frustration tinged around Silas’ eyes. “Mila.”

“I—”

Billy laughed then, causing me to tense. A reaction Silas didn’t miss. He nodded, almost to himself. I grabbed his wrist with both hands. “Just let it go.”

“Did the fucker touch you?”
