Ivy digs her nails into my thighs, causing my balls to draw as I get close to blowing my load down her throat.I cum down her throat, nearly seeing stars.Standing, I pull my pants up, pat her on the head turning to go to my office to do some work.I make it to the hallway when Hermes bursts out of his office, distress written all over his face as he rushes in my direction.

“It’s on fire, Prez,” he calls before he ever reaches me.

We both turn to run back out to the common room.“What is on fire?”I question him.

“The farm,” he says almost in a whisper.

“Goddamn it!What part?”I snap.

“That’s what makes this so strange.It’s the house,” he states flatly, a small trace of fear written in his eyes.

We make it back to the great room.“Load up,” I call out to anyone in the room.“We have problems at the farm.”

Rhino, Blender, and Anvil immediately head for the door.Mercy slides Ansley off his lap and, using his hold on her throat, tilts her head up so he can capture her lips in a kiss that leaves her breathy and bright red.

“What of the product?”Terro asks from behind me.

“As far as I can see from the cameras, it’s just the house,” Hermes mumbles, scanning the iPad in his hand.

Terro and I look at each other.“Fuck!Aunt Lynn.Mercy, we've gotta move now,”

I call, rushing across the room and out the door to find everyone already mounted with bikes running.I climb on, turning it over as I pull my helmet on.The Prospect has the gate open, and we’re pulling out onto the road in a flash.My heart is in my throat with thoughts I refuse to acknowledge.I’ve been avoiding Petty Cleaning to make sure I did not run into Anastasia.Now, the thought that something could have happened to her or Lynn has me pushing my motorcycle harder as we race across town.

We pull down the drive, slowing so as not to lay the bikes down on the gravel.Coming around the last corner, we’re met with the flashing lights of fire trucks, police cars, and two ambulances.My heart is in my throat, and my vision blurs.The house is burning brightly and hot, unnaturally so.I kick down the kickstand of my bike, killing it as I stand and pull my helmet off.Terro comes over, placing a hand on my shoulder as the rest of the brothers make their way over to me.

“This is not an accident,” Anvil observes, watching the flames dance.

That statement is what I need to get my ass in gear and to stop acting like a lost child.“Rhino, Mercy, and Blender, go check all the product.Anvil and Terro, you’re with me.Let’s go see if we can find someone to tell us what the hell is going on.”

I get a round of “yes, Prez” as they move.Striding towards the ambulance, I take in the chaos of men moving around.I circle the first ambulance to find Remedy standing at the back talking quietly to what looks like a teenager.I place my hand on his back to let him know we’re here when, in the darkness, a scream like a wounded animal breaks the night.Spinning around, I search the yard to find Anastasia being held by a cop as she tries to fight her way back into the house.Without another thought to anyone around me, I rush across the yard until I’m standing in front of her.Her eyes meet mine and go wide for a second before her fight with the cop’s hold on her intensifies.

“No, you can’t fucking be here.This can’t be happening to me,” she screams, fighting with everything in her.“I can’t do this.I can’t lose her and deal with the past.”

I don’t think—I just act.

Reaching out, I fist a handful of her hair with one hand and wrap the other gently around her throat, the way I had so many times before.I’m not hurting her—that’s not the purpose—but it’s just enough to shock her still.I step in close until we’re chest-to-chest.The officer who had been holding on, lets her go and quickly steps away.

We stand there just staring at each other as the tears carve rivers through the soot on her face.

“Tasia, stop,” I drawl, my face inches from hers.“I know this is hard and you’re struggling, but you will stop fighting the officer and let my brother check you out.Then when that’s done, we’ll figure out the rest of this shit.Do you understand?”

Her eyes are wide with emotions flickering across her face so fast that I can’t even start to read them.Tasia doesn’t move or seem to breathe for a moment before she nods.

“Oh no, Tasia.The rules have not changed,” I murmur, letting old emotions seep into my voice.

“I understand,” she answers softly, placing her hands on my chest.

As I ease my grip on her, she uses her hands to push me away.

“You have no fucking right to touch me like that,” she snaps, turning away from me and rushing to the ambulance.

I follow behind her, taking in the sight of her.She is in nothing but a long t-shirt that sits just below her ass.Her legs are as thick and curvy as they’ve always been, only now instead of a girl, she is all woman.

We make it to the back of the ambulance, and she nearly knocks Remedy away from the boy sitting on the back of it cupping his face.Tasia checks him over, talking quietly to him.Remedy turns to me looking as if he has seen a ghost.Confused, I step up to his shoulder so I can speak quietly.

“Why do you look as if you have seen a ghost?”

Remedy looks back at Tasia and the boy and then back to me.“Did you know?”
