Fuck up and it was over.
Finito.
No do-overs.
I didn’t relish the idea of deceiving her any more than I already had but it was the only thing I could think of and when I started talking and explaining what I wanted to do, they all stayed silent. When I was done, Phantom looked pissed, Ghost was silently shaking his head and Reaper looked ready to reap my soul.
“You all know I’m right. There isn’t any other way.”
“You do this Savage and she finds out, she will kill you.” Ghost stated clearly.
“And I will help her,” Phantom threatened.
“Look, I know it’s a shit idea. I know that anything can go wrong but if we’re right and she does know something, this is the only way to get the information. Besides, I don’t see any of you coming up with something better.”
“Are you sure about this Savage? Because when the time comes and it will, I won’t hold back. She is under my protection. You know what that means and what I will do to you.” Reaper stated, worry marring his face. I was worried too because he was right. Reaper would need to play his part fully. Deviating even an inch would alert the rest of the club that he was going soft.
That was something none of us could allow.
I knew what Reaper was capable of. Seen him in action many times. Trust me, I didn’t like knowing what he was going to do but I couldn’t live with myself if Jess knew something that could help this club catch my sister’s killer and I did nothing to find out what that was. For Kitty, I would do the unthinkable.
“This is so fucking wrong,” Phantom seethed, getting to her feet as she walked out of church slamming the door behind her.
“One wrong move and it’s game over Savage. You know that right?” Ghost asked.
I nodded.
“It’s your call Savage,” Reaper finally said.
“We go with my plan.”
