CHAPTER 23
GLITTER
“If you ever step foot in Boulder City again, we’ll make you disappear permanently. Consider this your only warning. ”
I lift my chin in acknowledgment but don’t respond to Malice’s threat. Mark sneers at me as he tosses my things at my feet. They stand side by side with their arms crossed, watching my every movement. Wrapping my arm around my waist, I wince as I bend over to grab my purse and the small bag of my belongings.
I hobble to my car, groaning as I climb inside and start the engine. I pull out of my spot and leave the clubhouse behind. The garage door closes with finality as I exit the side of the mountain.
Glancing in the rearview mirror, I’m not surprised at the face looking back at me. One eye is completely swollen shut, blood drips from my nose, and bruises mar the side of my face. It hurts to take a deep breath. Luckily for them, I don’t think anything is broken.
They fucking beat me!
They could’ve killed my baby. Spike only agreed with Soul and the others because he was afraid they’d kick him out of the club. He loves me, I know he does. This is all that stupid bitch’s fault. Ivory’s a fucking liar who turned the entire club against me.
They have no idea what I’m capable of.
“I’ll fucking show them.” I cradle my stomach as I drive. “Don’t worry, Daddy will see how much we love him. That homewrecking cunt will be on the receiving end next time. I’ll be welcomed back with open arms, and everyone will be so consumed with guilt for the pain they caused me.”
I should go to the police and have them tear apart the clubhouse.
But I can’t. This is just a test. It has to be. It’s a test of loyalty. They want me to prove that I’m tough enough to handle being a biker’s old lady.
Spike knows Ivory’s too soft for this life. I’ll show them how tough I can be.
I hit the highway with a plan formulating.
“I’ll fucking show them all.”
