I have no doubt that I’ll soon have to come up with an alternative punishment for Susie, as soon as I plant one in her, or two. And after last night I think that time might come sooner than later.

She was ripe for a good hard fuck, no doubt about that, but it was her mind I’d been more concerned about than her pussy. I’ll make sure her pussy can take the pounding I need to give it in order for me to get off. But I’m not willing to take chances with her heart and mind. She’d done so well the night before that it gave me hope that we were making great strides there, much sooner than I’d expected for someone with her penchant for rebellion.

“Well what is it this time? What can they possibly be up to over there? They haven’t been off the grounds, and no one has been here except the little Chinese lady who did their nails before we left, so what now?” Connor glared across the yard in frustration.

I felt his pain. As much as Susie minds me, when she gets with her sisters she can still be the same hardheaded pain in the ass she was the first day we met. It’s a wonder she doesn’t stay tied to my bed twenty-four seven as much shit as she and her sisters get up to. I guess we have to cut them some slack, it can’t be easy having their wings clipped, having to stay behind the compound walls all the time. But regrettably there was no other choice.

“Are you serious Con? They have a black Ops officer in their ranks now, and with the shit they pull we’re damn near outnumbered.” Devon finds great joy in the fact that the women keep us on our toes.

“Vanessa’s ass better be watching my kid and not getting into shit over there. I’ve told her a thousand fucking times.” Ty snorted at Zak’s rant. We all knew Nessa was gonna do what she wanted, as long as there was no danger, or she perceived there to be none. We also knew that Gabriella was more often than not the ringleader. Logan knows it too and it makes him nuts.

“They called Lyon’s place, probably to pump his woman for info. Good luck with that.” Lo walked away from the window still diddling with his little spying device. I’m not sure if the women knew we had them under twenty-four hour surveillance and that all the houses and whatever technology was inside, were tapped in some way or the other, including their asses. Vanessa might suspect, but I’m not sure if she knew for sure.

The lock on Susie’s new waist chain had a nice little chip in it and we were seeing about getting some stuff down to Law and Creed’s places for their women. Those men have been so caught up in other bullshit that they hadn’t even had time to think about such things, except for Lyon. Him, I’d like to know who his connection was, because that boy had some Grade-A shit. Fucker needed it. He got himself a battalion over there with all those kids. Shit makes me break out in a sweat.

“Didn’t we tell them to stay the fuck away from this shit?”

“Chill Zak, they could’ve been catching up.” Quinn is damn near clueless when it comes to these women, could be because they see him as their little patsy since he lets them get away with shit when it’s his turn to ride herd.

“My ass, they wouldn’t need a lookout if it was anything that innocent. Isn’t the kid supposed to be keeping an eye on them, keeping them out of trouble?”

“Sure Ty, he can control them about as much as the rest of you can.” Which would be not at all. “Now can we get back to work?” I’ll have the truth out of Susie in five seconds flat. Since no one was bleeding and nothing was being blown to shit it could wait, this couldn’t. The shit was fucking with my program. It had to stop.

Everyone took their places again spread out around the first floor room we’d turned into a command center for now. Until two days ago the old man’s home was still the way he’d left it; no one wanted to touch a thing. I think though none of us would admit it, we each believed that leaving this place the way we’d found it kind of kept his memory alive. Sort of like his presence was still here in some small way, looking over us the way he’d done when he was alive.

But since this whole mess had started, since we realized how deeply involved the CO was, we knew that we’d have to tear the place apart if we wanted answers. Now we had Candy set up in the trailer on site doing office work because we couldn’t risk having anyone else here but us.

“We’ve got to do something. This thing has snowballed way beyond anything we were expecting. We’re catching at our own asses looking for answers, but we’re getting nowhere. I don’t know about the rest of you, but I don’t like playing catch up with these fucks and I’m tired of feeling like we’re under siege here.”

We’ve been going through everything the old man had left behind looking for any evidence of whatever it was that Mancini had hinted at. After getting back and doing our own search on the guy we’d decided as a whole that he could be trusted, though what information could be found on him still left a lot of unanswered questions. It just meant that whatever he was into, whatever organization, had to be top secret like we once were.

That should probably scare us into heading in the opposite direction, since it was looking more and more like the people we once trusted were hip deep in this shit. But it was the man himself more so than what we’d found that had convinced us to take a chance. Having lived in the shadows ourselves for so long, we well understood the need for that kind of secrecy. And we’re not fools, we know when someone is on the safe list.

“We’ve gone over every inch of this place in the last couple days since we came back from Lyon’s and found nothing. We’ve got to get into the old man’s head. If he had something that hot to hide where would he keep it?” Logan popped the cap on his water bottle and took it to the head for a long draw.

“We know the place was bugged, but there were no eyes on it. Why if they thought he had something would they put ears but no eyes on him?” Connor prowled the room back and forth while Devon and Quinn booted up the old man’s computer.

“Was he dictating something maybe? There was no hacking device on his comps, no one was ghosting him so what exactly were they looking for? Unless; someone else was here. Who visited the old man before he died?” As much training as we have it’s not that easy putting a puzzle together when you’re missing half the fucking pieces.

“You’re thinking he was sharing information with someone and they were listening in? I want those bugs out of here.” We’d left them in to fuck with whoever was on the receiving end of that shit, but now that we were on their trail I saw no need for it. Whoever we were dealing with had to know that we were good enough to have found the devices by now unless we were dense. That only opened the door to more questions. Why hadn’t the old man suspected, or had he?

“There’s no way to know that since the CO was such a private person. Davey hadn’t seen anyone around except the locals. And we know if the old man was dealing with something he’d have taken steps to keep it contained. If there were any secret meetings between him and anyone they would’ve been done under cover of night.”

“That’s true Con unless he was handling it himself. We all know he had the habit of talking shit out loud to himself. What if whoever planted the bugs knew that? What if that was the reason for them all along?” It had always been a running joke among us that one of the men most trusted with world secrets couldn’t beat the habit of talking to himself. He’d once told us that he’d come up with his best strategies that way.

Lo nodded the okay for the bugs to be taken out and Zak and Ty headed up the stairs to take care of it. I looked out the window into the yard where our homes were, where our women were going about their not so normal day. It figures that I would find my forever in the middle of a shit storm. Nothing in life had ever come easy for me, why should this be any different?

We’d worked for it the seven of us, protected our country, even going above and beyond in our fervor to keep our borders safe. Was it too much to ask to be left the fuck alone to live what was left of our lives in peace?

My brothers had started dropping like flies the second we moved here, no, more like dominoes. Me, I hadn’t been expecting it for myself. I had long accepted that that shit wasn’t for me. I’d been sure that there wouldn’t be anyone out there who could fulfill the raging need I had inside, not for longer than a few encounters anyway.

But then she blew into my life out of nowhere, totally unexpected and turned everything on its head. I didn’t care what it took I knew from day one that I wanted her. She was the first woman who’d made me say ‘fuck it’, I don’t care if she can handle it or not, I will have her.

Because I’m only too aware of the rarity of what I am, I knew it would be selfish of me to ask anyone to sign on for the long haul. With her, I wasn’t giving her a choice I’d made it for her. It may not be fair, and add the fact that she was so young it seemed like a fucked up thing to do, but none of that mattered.

If it had only been my lust that she’d awakened I could’ve fucked her ten ways from Sunday and moved on already. But, there was so much more going on between us, even from the very beginning. The fact that I needed a little bit more out of my wife than my brothers did from theirs is the only reason I haven’t taken her to my bed as yet. Funny, it’s because I’m gonna make her my wife that I’ve had to hold off.

It wouldn’t be fair to her to take her before I showed her what she was getting into. The kind of life she could look forward to once she gave herself over to me completely.
