“Arson is what does it for her,” Jag says in awe. His eyes are as big as a kid’s in a candy store. He loves fire, and he certainly loves Kiki. Put the two together and his dreams have come true. “Have I mentioned she’s perfect?”
Knox’s eyes track her every movement. “You don’t have to tell me twice.”
Jag sets off after her. “Don’t keep the lady waiting.”
And suddenly I’m seventeen all over again, eagerly waiting for the spark of an omega to light up my world.
CHAPTERTWENTY-NINE
KIKI
The guys and I take my dad’s older SUV to the outskirts of town. Knox is driving and the windows are down to keep the smell of gasoline down. We filled up two gas cans in the city and even with the caps on, it reeks. The guys haven’t told me where we’re going or who we’re punishing, but at the moment, I don’t care. The little thrill of being back with them and getting ready to do something illegal is enough for me.
Crow is busy on his laptop and Jag is reminding Knox how much he hates spoilers. I roll my eyes and gaze out the open window. There isn’t much light this far from town. A thousand stars stretch across the sky. I try to make out a constellation but quickly give up. All I can see are scattered stars. Knox is humming along to the rock song playing. Strands of hair whip at my face. Not even that bothers me.
Knox turns down the music. “What are you thinking about?”
“How it feels like we’re teenagers again.” I stick my hand out of the window and make waves, moving my fingers through the current the car generates.
“It’s crazy how much time has passed and how much hasn’t really changed between us, huh?”
I scoff. “A lot has changed.”
“I thought we were past that,” he says. “I’m sorry—”
“I’m not talking about that. Wearepast that, I only meant that this is totally different. Back then you guys didn’t want me the way you do now.” I shrug. “We were only kids.”
“We were teenagers,” Crow corrects. “And we always wanted you. Only now we can have you every which way we want.”
My core throbs. I shouldn’t be so affected by those words, but I am. I should be satiated after my heat, but I’m not.
Jag tugs on my hair from the back seat. “Let’s do the job first, Kiks.”
“We could turn around,” Knox offers.
“No.” I can’t let my sex drive get in the way of what we’re doing. There’s plenty of time for both. “We need to finish what we started.”
“Whatever you want, Angel.” Knox slows and takes a right, turning down a bumpy road. We drive for a few minutes, over a hill and around a bend, before we pass a familiar sycamore tree.
“I know this place.” I scan the night, searching for the worn storage building. The headlights flash over the steel structure. A flood light turns on and Knox screeches to a stop. “There are cameras.”
“Not for long.” Crow’s fingers fly over the keyboard. His phone is sitting on the seat beside him, the screen lit up and showing the hotspot connection.
“Is this smart?” I look between Jag and Knox. “Axel will know you did it.”
“He hit us first.” Knox grips the steering wheel a little tighter. “The drugs in there almost killed Nova.”
“Sneaky was cutting it with fentanyl though.”
He shrugs. “Heroin is dangerous regardless of what it’s cut with. Axel and…” He stops short of saying my dad’s name. “Wrecker is responsible for more than half the supply of drugs in Dolin. He hit us to hurt us.”
“He tried to claim you when he had no right.” Crow types a little faster. “He made you scared of an alpha command.”
“And he’s all around a piece of shit.” Jag leans forward and runs his finger up my arm. “I’ll never forget that day I smelled him on you and how scared you were.”
That was the same night I thought the guys betrayed me.
“This will hurt more than him.” I don’t know why I’m trying to talk them out of this. I hated that Dad was mixed up in this side of the business, but this is what gave us money. This is what helps the other club members eat.
