Page 73 of Hell's Claim

“I said who!” Sunny roared, his temper igniting.

“What the hell is going on?” Tiny asked, approaching. “People are staring.”

“Chance, I need a name,” Lio pushed.

Tiny looked down at Lio’s hand. “Wow, that’s a blast from the past.”

“You recognise it?” Sunny turned to Tiny.

“Yeah. It’s mine.”

The words had no sooner left Tiny’s mouth when Sunny launched at him. Before anyone knew what was happening,Sunny had knocked Tiny into a wall and had an arm to his throat.

“Thought you’d hurt my woman and get away with it?” Sunny snarled.

Tiny choked, but Sunny was too irate to listen. He was seeing red and drew back his fist to pummel the cunt who’d harmed Callie.

Hands pulled at him, and suddenly, Sunny’s feet were kicked out from under him. He struggled against whoever pinned him and discovered himself in cuffs.

“Carry him out,” Lio said, panting.

Sunny was picked up even as he kicked out and fought to get free.

“Dump his ass there,” Chance ordered, and Sunny was carried outside the hospital. He was placed on his feet and automatically headed for Tiny.

“You fucker! I’m going to kill you, you fuckin’ traitor,” Sunny seethed.

Tiny was rubbing his throat, but his own temper was also up. “Come on, I’ll beat the shit out of you. I ain’t no rat!”

“Liar, you just admitted that was yours! It was found on Callie’s body. You attacked her!” Sunny hollered.

“It was lost years ago! Banshee, Chatter, and I bought them as gag gifts, and mine went missing. I recognised it because mine had the red stone, Chatter’s had blue and Shee’s had green. I’ve got no idea how it ended up on Callie!” Tiny shouted back.

Sunny was beyond reasoning. “You would say that! You’ve been caught. That’s our damn rat!”

“Sunny, we need to ask—”

Sunny turned to Chance in hate and fury, and Chance stepped away in surprise.

“We need to ask Shee and Chatter to confirm his story. I always fuckin’ knew you didn’t believe me, and when confrontedwith the truth, you’d falter. Take my cut because I am nothing to do with Hellfire anymore. You are a traitor, too, Chance, to Enigma, Bullet, and Slash. That cunt there is the man who set me up to be shot, and you’re automatically protecting him,” Sunny raged.

“Tiny, I’m going to have to ask you to come to the station. You’ve identified this as belonging to you,” Lio said.

“You arresting him?” Chance demanded protectively.

Sunny snorted in disgust.

“Not yet, but I will if Tiny doesn’t make his way there. This was found on an assault victim. Tiny needs to answer some questions,” Lio replied.

“Bullshit. Uncuff me, Lio. My woman’s unprotected. And as her fiancé, Hellfire is not allowed near her. Am I clear? That includes your bitches too,” Sunny stormed. His gaze swapped between Chance and Tiny. There was no denying the hate and anger he felt.

“You calm now?” Lio demanded.

“Let me out of the bracelets, Lio. Callie needs someone watching over her. One of these cunts might decide to shut her up permanently if she fingers Tiny,” Sunny snarled.

Lio studied him for a bit and nodded. No sooner than the cuffs were off, Sunny spun on his heel and ignored everyone. As he walked away, Clio called out to him.

“I’m her sister, you can’t stop me seeing her!”
