Alex’s response was immediate. “No! No! Don’t hurt him.”
I took the stairs three at a time, bursting into her apartment. It took a second for my eyes to make sense of what I was seeing.
Shadows danced across the living room floor, the soft bedroom light interrupted by moving bodies. Beside me, the door to the bathroom rattled violently. Lucifer’s snarls echoed but before I could let him out, the bastardbrokethrough the flimsy hollow door, tearing out of there. His mind so focused on getting to Alex that he didn’t even stop to acknowledge my presence.
Pulling out my gun, I followed on Lucifer’s tail, not knowing what I was running into. Not knowing what I would find when I rounded that corner.
As I stepped into the doorway, time slowed as I took in the scene.
Lucifer was mid-jump, his sole focus on the man dressed in an expensive suit straddling Alex on the bed. She was half naked, her breasts and neck covered in what I could only assume was his cum. I committed that man’s face to memory. He had touched what was mine, and I would take my pound of flesh. Another man with a thick neck and broad shoulders was standing off to one side, swinging his gun to point at Lucifer.
The man straddling Alex saw that Lucifer had him in his sights and rolled off Alex’s body and the bed. Knowing thatbastard would get what was coming to him, I brought up my gun, took aim at the other man, and pulled the trigger.
Bang!
Bang!
My bullet lodged into the big fucker’s shoulder, but he didn’t even flinch.
His burrowed into the mattress where Lucifer had been a split second earlier.
Alex screamed, shuffling backward on the bed, clutching the sheet to her chest. Lucifer landed on the mattress and stood guard over her, muscular legs planted, boxy head bowed, deep growls filling the room.
The first man got to his feet, pulling at the ends of his suit jacket, and gesturing for his bodyguard to stand down. Flicking me an irritated look, he sneered, “I shouldn’t be surprised that she’s spreading her legs for another man already.”
Keeping my gun up and pointed at the other man, I demanded, “Who the fuck are you?”
“I’m the man who French fucked your woman and gave her a pretty pearl necklace.” The smirk that tugged up his mouth made me want to shove my gun down his throat and pull the fucking trigger until the clip was empty.
Fighting hard to keep my rage in check, I asked her. “What’s he doing here, Alex?”
“Yeah, Alex,” he taunted, his dark eyes fixed on her.. “Tell him why I’m here.”
That possessive side of me didn’t want his eyes on her.
I didn’t want him to breathe in her direction.
I wanted him to be a bloody, beaten corpse at my feet.
Alex shifted her tear-stained eyes to me. “He’s nobody,” she replied on a shaking breath. “Nick, you have to believe me.”
The other man’s brows shot up. “Nick, is it?” His eyes tracked down to my cut. “Sergeant at arms. I can only assume you’re a Savage.”
In more fucking ways than one,I thought, already thinking of the ways I was going to hurt this man.
“You must also be the Savage that was released from prison only seven days ago.”
I felt Alex’s eyes go wide, but I ignored her questioning look.
“What business is it of yours?” I asked him.
He gave a dark chuckle. “Oh, it’s my business to know all about you and your little club.”
My hackles were instantly up. “Who the fuck are you?”
He looked to Alex. “I can see now isn’t the time. I’ll be seeing you again soon, Alex,” he told her.
“You will never come near her again, or?—”
