I put my fork down, looking at his uncertain eyes. “What?”
“Who’s Dom’s girl?”
I roll my eyes, picking my fork back up. “Stacey Gorden, she’s a twat. She thinks she’s the fucking Queen of the Kings. He’s been with her for years, on and off.”
My hatred for her is valid. She helped Dom several times make sure I was ready to make payments for my father. She wants to have power and be feared.
“Do you know where she lives?” he asks.
“Yep. You know that dirt road off County Road?”
“She lives in the trailer park?” he asks.
I finish my breakfast, taking another sip of my coffee. “Yeah. I don’t exactly know which one is hers, but I know that’s where she lives.” I realize what he’s asking and snap my head up. “Holy fuck! That’s where they both are,” I whisper.
“You think your father is there, too?” he rushes out.
“I don’t know for sure. I mean, it would be the perfect place to hide, but I’m not sure my father would give up his luxuries. But I’d bet my tit on it that Dom is there.”
He laughs and leans over the table to kiss me. “Don’t bet those perfect tits away.” He clears our plates and grabs me, pulling me into his arms. He slams his power lips to mine and fucks my mouth. I run my hands up his solid back and pull at his hair when I reach it. He groans and digs his fingers into my ass.
“Seriously?” Ivy yells.
We break the kiss, laughing. He doesn’t let me go though, he gently bites my ear, his warm breath fanning on my skin. “Thank you, babe. You have no idea how much I needed that information, but don’t tell anyone you gave it to me.”
“Okay, baby, don’t worry,” I whisper.
“Oh, fuck yeah, free show,” Kace jokes.
The three of us laugh, but Ivy doesn’t even crack a smile while she pours more coffee. I tell them there’s breakfast and sit down on Zane’s lap.
“Damn, thanks Harper,” Kace says.
He makes a plate and sits across from us. “When you’re done, we have to get to Souls,” Zane tells him.
“What are we supposed to do today?” Ivy snaps. “I’m tired of being stuck here and not working. I have bills that are due to be paid and my savings is running dry.”
“It’s too dangerous for you to be working without any of us there,” Kace states. He doesn’t look at her, just continues eating.
She growls with frustration. “I’m a grown ass woman! This has gone from being taken against my will to now being a hostage!” she screams.
I look at Z and his eyes are wide. Kace drops his fork, letting it clatter against the plate. He slowly turns his head, pinning her with his dark angry eyes. “Are you fucking serious?” he asks. His voice is low, controlled, and full of rage.
I just up and grab her arm. “No, she’s just tired,” I say, pulling her out of the kitchen. I drag her down the hallway, pushing her into the spare room she’s been staying in. “What the fuck, Ivy?”
She spins around, pulling at her own hair. Her eyes are wild as she is pacing in front of the bed. “I can’t do this anymore, Harper. I need my life back. I need to feel normal again. I can’t even shower without letting someone know!”
I instantly feel regret for putting her in this situation. She’s here because of me. This isn’t the life she’s used to. She’s used to being her own person, playing by her own rules, making her own decisions. I took advantage of the fact she was here. I liked having another woman around, but I should’ve been fighting for her to get her life back. Now she’s about to explode and I can’t say I blame her.
I reach out to touch her arm, but she pulls away. I slowly shake my head and step back. “I’m sorry, Ivy. You know I didn’t put you in harm's way on purpose. It all happened so quickly, and I guess, I selfishly liked having you around. I’ll talk with Zane.”
I reach for the door handle, expecting her to stop me, but she doesn’t. I sigh, closing the door and head back to the kitchen. Zane and Kace are still sitting there, drinking their coffee.
“She alright?” Zane asks.
“No babe, she’s not. This isn’t her life; she needs to get back to what she knows. I mean, this is the shitty world I’m used to, and I miss working. I miss making my own money and feeling like I have a purpose. It’s not exactly the same, but I get where she’s coming from. You guys can’t keep her here any longer,” My lips turn down as I shrug.
Zane gets up and wraps his arms around me. “Soon, just give us today to figure this out.”
