“I won’t do that to Gun,” I sigh.

Fine, but after tomorrow I take the reins for a bit.

“Deal.”

I smash the cherry of my cigarette on the decaying brick and start heading back. I need a strong drink and sleep. Tomorrow is going to be a long day without the Little Minx. Much like Baron, I do now understand why Gunner had an attraction to her and his pet name for her is more than fitting.

Before I get a chance to get past the burnt remains of the house of horrors, my phone starts to buzz. It’s odd for anyone to be texting me this late, which means it can only be one person. He only reaches out if it’s serious or it’s getting close to our quarterly meet ups. Taking a deep sigh, I reluctantly pull out my phone, unlocking the screen.

Dipshit K: I was told I needed to check on you. Are you okay?

Me: You care?

Dipshit K: Knock off the attitude, you know I do.

Me: I’m fine

Dipshit K: What did she do?

Me: Who?

Dipshit K: Seriously Nik, not tonight

Me: She threw a rock at my head, bit me, told me to do my worst, and licked my bottom lip.

Dipshit K: Fucking ballsy lol. Is she still alive?

Me: For now. We’ll see after tomorrow

Dipshit K: Don’t go overboard like you did with Michelle. Nik you had a hard enough time getting over that

Me: Drop it! I don’t need a fucking reminder. I won’t hurt the little minx completely.

Dipshit K: Completely? So he is back?

Me: Ah now I know who told you to check on me. She is Baron and Gunner’s claim.

Dipshit K: They’re sharing her?

Me: Apparently so.

Dipshit K: Baron doesn’t share and last time I checked neither does Gunner.

Me: You would know

Dipshit K: Fuck off Nikolas!

I have to laugh because the fucker knows I’m right. He and his little bitch boy are the reason Baron doesn’t like to share with anyone. Well, also after seeing what his dad went through and his mom as well. Gunner never minded sharing, well if he was sharing with another girl.

I’ve known Baron and Gunner for all my life and neither one of them have crossed that line. So why now? And why with her? Unless…

Nikolas, I need to take the reins now!

Caine starts to rip apart my carefully built wall between us. I can feel his anger surging through me and there is no stopping him when he is like this. Either I let him take control or he rips through me and throws me in the lock box. I have no choice. I switch to my other text chain, closing my eyes I let him bleed through.

Me: I’m back.

Baron: We have a lot to discuss.
