Tonight was the night she ended this. She wasn’t afraid of him this time. She fought a little to distract him at the same time, keeping the wrench out of his sight.
“Let her go, fucker,” Rage said.
She almost whimpered when she saw him. All the men were pointing their guns at Eric.
“You’re going to Hell tonight, you fucker,” she said. She almost smiled when Eric jerked in shock.
“You fucking cunt.”
She cringed when he pulled her hair.
“How about I take out lover boy there before I shoot you? That way, you can see him die.”
Harley screamed when he started to raise his arm. She swung her arm as hard as possible with the wrench and hit him in the forehead.
She screamed again when he went down, taking her with him. She knelt the best she could and saw the gun in his hand.
“You fucking cunt. You’ll pay for that.”
“Go to Hell.” She lifted the wrench again, and it came down on his head, knocking him out.
She raised it again when the tool was pulled from her grip, and she was lifted off Eric.
“Goddamn, woman. Are you fucking crazy? Why the hell didn’t you let us take care of it?”
She turned in his arms. “He was going to shoot you, and I couldn’t let that happen.”
“Babe, if his gun had gone up another inch, we would have shot him.”
She really wanted him to hold her, but instead, he had her by the shoulders, yelling at her and it pissed her off.
“You know what?” she yelled back. It shut him up because she never yelled. “He was my problem to take care of…”
“Fuck that. You’re my woman. I take care of shit like this.”
“I know, but I let him abuse me for years, and this time I needed to fight and stand up for myself. The fact I could protect you guys made it even sweeter.”
She could tell by the muscle tick in his jaw that he wasn’t going for it. She crossed her arms over her chest. Well, too fucking bad.
His eyes widened when she narrowed her eyes and lifted her chin.
“Babe, you are already in big trouble and digging yourself deeper.”
She shrugged, which made him madder. “I’ll take any punishment, but I won’t apologize for something I needed to do.”
Harley saw one of the guys get in the van and start it, another few threw Eric in the back, and a few others went with Eric to watch him.
“Where are they taking him?” she asked.
“Away. You’ll never have to see him again.”
“I’d like another chance at him,” Harley said.
Rage grunted. “No fucking way. Now it’s my turn to give him some pain. You’ll go back to the compound.”
“Fine.”
“Yo, Crush, can you take her back for me?” Rage asked.
