Forever - Book 3 (Star Crossed MC Lovers) (15 page)

I turned and let my eyes run across the crazy bastard’s expression. I didn’t know what to believe, nor did I care at the moment.

“It’s the Wolves, Uncle. Let’s go!” Elec motioned again, and Rafael started to move toward him, muscling my beautiful girl as he did.

“Daddy, let me say goodbye to Grandma,” she begged. “Take that away from me and I’ll never talk to you again.”

“This place is going to be filled with Stone Wolves,” he said.

“They won’t hurt me.”

“I know they won’t. Not when you’re fucking their golden boy. You know where to find me,” he said. “Veer off course and I will kill you, Selene.”

“I’ll be home soon,” she said.  

The threat worked. Her father let her go and she ran to her grandma. The Black Hearts started to flood out the back door. I had my moment of opportunity, so I seized it. I moved out of their way, and jogged to the front of the church. I didn’t need to watch the king pin get away; I needed to try and save the beautiful older woman who had so kindly welcomed me into her home and her life.

I knelt before her, reaching out and touching her chilly skin. Her eyes opened a little and she gave me a weak smile as best she could.

“This is going to hurt like hell. Forgive me, Grandma.” I pulled the tape quickly, but she didn’t even flinch. She was too far gone to feel simply pain like the tape being removed.

“Tell my baby that I love her. You protect her,” she wheezed out a moment before Selene hit the ground next to me.

“Grandma,” she whispered. “I called 911. Help’s coming. Stay strong. Hang on! Don’t you dare die on me!”

“I love you, Selene. You were always the apple of my eye.”

“I love you too. And we’re going to leave this town. You, me, and Lucky. We’re gonna run away as far as possible.”

“I’ve always wanted to see the red rocks in Sedona,” she said. “And the stars.”

Selene applied pressure on the wound with a towel one of the guys fetched for her. It turned red in no time. “Then it’s settled. We’ll move to Sedona, Arizona. And we’ll see the biggest, glittering stars in the sky. We’ll enjoy the big, red rocks, clean air, and desert. I’ve been wanting a change of scenery for a while now.”

“Then I better pack. Will you help me?”

Selene wiped the tears rolling down her face. “Yes, Grandma. I will.”

“Don’t cry,” he grandma said. “We’re going to love moving there. You and Lucky can…get married and have kids.”

“Lots of kids,” I said.

“Pretty like you…”

Her eyes fluttered shut and she took her very last breath.

Selene pulled her grandma into her lap and leaned over her, wailing loudly. I wrapped my arms around her and let the tears that burned my gaze fall onto my cheeks. She’d lost something precious that night, but I couldn’t have imagined how much worse it would be if it was me screaming and her gone.

My heart ached. I was so furious that I kicked the pew with all my might as I screamed.

“Why, God?” I shouted up at the ceiling. “Why her? You could’ve taken me instead!”

Grief poured through me as realization struck. Even I didn’t want to believe that he could kill Selene’s grandmother like that. How could he be such a monster?

Rafael would have to pay for what he’d done, and Elec would have to come clean. There were a lot of Delgados who died that night, but the one that should have been lying bloody and lifeless on the floor was headed out of town to safety.

“What the fuck happened in here?” Viper’s voice filled up the small church, but I didn’t move.

I continued to hold my girl as tightly as my arms would let me and concentrated on breathing as she lost her shit over and over again. I’d never seen someone more torn up, more broken than Lena was that night.

Viper moved in beside me and touched my shoulder. “Where is he?”

“He’s gone.” I shook my head and glanced down at Selene. “He played his cards perfectly, and for that, he got a ticket out of here. I’m going to kill him, though. He has to pay the reaper for his actions.”

Lena’s head jerked up, and all the loving kindness I’d seen in her sweet face over the years was gone. She stared down at her bloody hands. A hardened look sat upon her that was terrifying to me.

“No. You’re not going to kill him. I am.”

Rebecca is an aspiring actress. While at a fancy cocktail party, the socialites begin to pick on her. And that’s when she claims she’s dating the billionaire host of the party. When he goes along with it, Rebecca is in shock. And when this billionaire offers her a proposition she can’t say no to, she dives straight in. 

Jenna Harks left Goldman Sachs. Left the two hundred thousand starting salary on the table. She left to make her name with something bigger, better. Even if it did mean starting out as a low-level assistant without recognition or the chance of dental. But when mistaken identity gives Jenna the job of her dreams, she isn’t sure what to make of it. She knows she has the skills and determination, that’s for sure. So she rises to the challenge. 
There is Michael Larchwood, younger son of the legendary Abe Larchwood. Second heir to the keys of the castle. He was also a notorious playboy who flirts with Jenna. The thing is, not only does the company have a zero tolerance policy toward inter-office fraternization, but Michael was well known for flouting those rules. At least four women in the last two years were fired after being seen leaving his apartment, and Jenna was in no way interested in making that list. 
And then there’s the serious brother, Thomas Larchwood, who is a brilliant financial tactician and the youngest person ever to be named on Forbes most influential people’s list. All that and he was only a few years older than Jenna. 
The more Michael flirts with Jenna, the more Thomas takes notice. Both brothers are off limits. But during this Christmas season, one of them steals her heart.
