“Any news.”

No one answered me and honestly I didn’t expect any one to answer because I already knew the answer. There was no news.

There was never any news.

It had been a week since I had left them and Killian was shot and Lottie was taken but it might as well have been a year or more because every minute

like an age.

I’d made a mistake. An innocent one. One where I thought I’d made the right decision but you know what they say right-

The road to hell is paved with good intentions and I was most definitely in hell.

The two people I loved most in the world were gone. Killian hadn’t woken up yet, even if the surgery had gone well, the doctors had placed him in a medically induced coma so his body could heal, he seemed no closer to waking up than he had a week ago.

And then there was Lottie.

Everyone kept saying that no news was good news but those were just words. Deep in my heart I knew she was going through hell.

Again.

“Is there at least any news about the,” my eyes swept across the stony faced men sitting around the table. Everyone had been called in, there were even some of the local nomads for this church.

There were only two people missing. Killian and Rancher.

One was in the hospital and the other god knows where, doing god knows what with a rival clubs princess.

“The boss?” I finished. I refused to say his name.

A ripple of unease spread across the table, so it was clear that they were hiding something from me. I stammed my hands down on the worn wood of the

1 table. Hard enough to make it shake and still no one looked at me.

“Has anyone even bothered to check on him?” I growled out The frustration in my voice was clear to anyone who listened ‘Nihan sand

Ravens eyes swept over me. “Irish.” He stressed Killian’s road name with a snarl Was delirious”

I rolled my eyes. What was it with this saan that he just couldn t listen’ I’d spent the last few years telling Kithan to back down and respect tavens authority but I was beginning to think he was right

Raven was useless.

And so were the gormless sheep around the table that followed him blindly

“This is typical.”

All eye swung towards me. The lines around Ravens eyes deepened as he frowned. “And what exactly do you mean by that?” He asked in a low even that promised more violence than any shouting would have done.

I was treading on thin ice now and wasn’t sure I cared.

“Exactly what I said.” I spat. “You have never liked Lottie and you’ve made it clear that my relationship our relationship is not something you agree

An uneasy silence fell.

“Actually. Slowly he rose. “I like Lottie a lot. She’s a strong woman and respect that.”

I swallowed hard in surprise.

“But you’re right I don’t understand this three, way thing you have going on. But not for the reasons you think.” His eyes narrowed. “I don’t care who stick your dick into X. What I don’t understand is the willingness to share a woman you claim to love. Because if that was me then I’d never share.”

rappve.

I stared at him in shock. My throat working.

“And just because I am not doing things your way. Doesn’t mean things aren’t getting done. I was made president for a reason X, and it’s because I don in all guns blazing and fuck things up. Now sit your ass down and I’ll explain.”

Reluctantly I took my seat, my fingers clenching and unclenching under the table as I waited for him to explain.

“Did you know,” his eye flicked towards me. “That her parents got her the job in the shelter?”

I blinked at him in surprise. “What?”

He shrugged. “Yeah. Any job she has lost. Any she has then got. Has all been their doing. They have been manipulating her for years. Positioning her inte

place for-”

“Holy fucking shit.” My hands clenched so tightly that my short nails cut into my palm. “You mean to say that wanted this to happen?”

Raven shrugged. “They definitely wanted her to meet the upstanding gentleman that is Wesley.” He said dryly. “I’m not sure if they realised he was a fucki psychopath. Charlotte isn’t even the first woman-”

My head snapped up. “There’s been others?”

“An ex girlfriend has a restraining order on him. We’ve been looking for her but she’s in the wind. My bet is on her having changed her name There’s also been quite a turn over at the shelter and his practice. He just can’t seen to keep the staff. Especially if they are young pretty situd leinate.”

It felt like my blood turned to ice. He’d done this before. At least partly. The others had gotten away

Lottie hadn’t been so lucky and that was partly down to me

If I hadn’t left them I shook the thought away as the door to the meeting room was pushed open and Kithan appeared. He looked haggard Park smudge – made the hollows under los eyes look more pronounced. His cheeks were gaunt and he looked like he was an his test by will power alone

“What are you doing out of the hospital? You’re meant to be in a coma

Killians lips twisted. “I woke up. Now fill me in ”

Raven lid quickly and the entire time I watched Killians face.

“Ok work on finding out where this ex girlfriend is.” With difficulty he pushed himself off the wall.
