Chapter 137 Alyssa When we return to the living room , King and Gray stop their conversation mid sentence .
The air feels heavier than when we left , and Grays sharp eyes cut straight to me , suspicion flickering across his face ..
Whats going on , babe ! he asks his tone clipped as his gaze shifts to Christine .
His arched brow screams hes not in the mood for bullshit I wonder what he and King were discussing while we were gone thats got him so tense .
I know King wouldnt tell him about Christine without me present Christine , the fake bitch that she is flashes him a sugary smile that makes my stomach churn .
Nothing , baby , I was just telling Alyssa I wanted to go shopping with her .
You know , have us a girls day ! A girls day ? Thats hilarious .
Since when does breaking into dead guys houses to retrieve sex tapes qualify as retail therapy ? Grays eyes snap to mine , his gaze probing , dissecting .
Hes looking for cracks , for any sign I might be hiding something , Jokes on him- his wifes the real snake .
I nod , stiff and robotic , like a hostage with a gun pointed to my head .
Yeah , I thought it was a great idea , I manage , my voice just as fake as her smile Kings star witches , his dark eyes narrowing as his expression hardens .
Hes been silent , watching the exchange , his presence a looming storm ready to break .
Hes trying to piece together what the hell is going on , and I doubt hell be able to guess what it is Ill be growing out of all my clothes soon anyway .
I add quickly , trying to steer the conversation elsewhere .
Might as well upgrade my wardrobe , right ? Gray hums , skeptical .
Oh , right .
Hows your pregnancy going anyway ! I smile , sweet enough to compete with Christines earlier performance .
Great actually .
King didnt tell you ? I let the words hang in the air as I walk over to King , threading my fingers through his .
Were having twins Is this petty ! Absolutely .
Satisfying ! Even more so .
But after the shit Christine just pulled .
I dont give two fucks if it stings .
Good .
She deserves it Grays eyes widen , his shock palpable .
Holy shit ! Twins ! Christines mask slips for the briefest second , a flicker of something unreadable crossing her face before she schools it with a convincing smile .
Wow , thats amazing .
One more baby for us to shop for tomorrow .
Kings hand tightens slightly in mine , his body coiled like a spring .
I can feel his restraint , his desire to call her out on her bullshit barely contained .
exposing her right now would expose us too .
And we havent agreed as a unit that were ready for that .
But -Congratulations , man Gray says with a grin , clapping him on the back .
That means Ill definitely have extra security measures put in place No need , babe , Christine chirps , waving a dismissive hand .
Im sure King .
Niko , and Mason are enough to protect both of us .
You do trust your best friends , right ? The way she emphasizes best friends makes my blood boil .
Shes subtly trying to make me see that she can blurt our business out right now if she wanted to .
I guess thats what I get for rubbing my babies in her face , though Of course I do , Gray says , his jaw tightening .
But Alyssas at risk right now .
You both need protection , especially in public .
And I need Niko for club business tomorrow , and King and Mason arent enough .
What ab about Logan and War ? 1 suggest , cuning in Gray rolls his eyes .
Theyre not part of the club , Alyssa .
We cant keep asking them for shit like they are .
Besides , I have plenty of men for the job But you know theyll do it , I counter .
As much as I hate War , I have a feeling hell be useful tomorrow with the very illegal break in were going to do .
Cray grunts , finally nodding .
Fine .
Ill call them , see if theyre available .
That alright with you .
King ! I squeeze Kings hand .
Sure , he grumbles , brushing his thumb across my palm .
But I want Falcon and Luther on standby .
Done I look up at King .
Well , now that thats settled , Im ready to go home .
Im sleepy I tell him as I bury my face in his chest .
14 716 PM Chapter 137 up I know , kitten , he murmurs , brushing his lips against the back of my hair .
Gray , keep me updated on the clean up .
I guess well be here to pick u Christine in the morning .
Not looking forward to it .
1 dont even know how 111 ger through this without wanting to punch her in the face .
Alyssa Grays voice cuts through my thoughts Yeah ? I glance at him .
Should I even ask what you did in there that made you have to wash your hair ? It still looks wet , by the way I cant help the mischievous grin that spreads across my face .
No , you really shouldnt .
It might traumatize you , big brother .
His expression twists with disgust as Kings lips twitch into a smirk .
Without another word , King grabs my hand and leads us out the front door .
When we get into the car , Kings expression hardens once again .
He doesnt even wait until were fully out of the driveway before growling , Spill it .
I do .
I tell him every single word of what went down in the laundry room .
How shes blackmailing me us into helping her .
By the time Im finished , Kings jaw is clenched so tightly , Im half worried hell crack a molar .
His knuckles strain against the steering wheel like hes imagining its Christines neck .
Kinen , just say the word and flip this fucking truck around , he says , his voice low and menacing .
We can tell Gray everything right now .
Im not gonna let that bitch blackmail us We can still tell Gray if were all ready , but I think I want to help her , I admit quietly .
His head snaps towards me like Ive lost my mind .
You want to what ? Shes a victim too .
King .
I say , forcing myself to meet his piercing gaze .
And itll be one more big fuck you to Phillips .
I dont just want to find her tape- want all of them .
And then , when we find the female officer who helped me , we can hand over everything anonymously , Really expose him for the monster he was .
Kings jaw works , the muscle jumping as he grinds his teeth .
I can see the war waging in his head , his protective instincts battling with his need for vengeance .
* Plus , I add my voice gaining confidence .

Ill Il explain why he just disappeared out of nowhere .
No one will suspect he was killed ; theyll think hes in hiding His car is gone , righ He nods stiffly .
Its in the bottom of a lake right now .
So , do you think this is a good idea ? He exhales heavily , his grip on the wheel loosening slightly .
Yeah , it is … if shes telling the truth .
My lips press into a thin line .
You think she could be lying I mean , of course she could be .
But what could she possibly gain from doing that this time ! King hums , a low , thoughtful sound that vibrates through the truck .
I dont know .
I dont trust anything she fucking says , but well discuss this with Niko and Mace .
See what they think .
Okay I reply softly , relaxing into the seat , trying to find some measure of calm in the chaos swirling around us tonight With one hand on the wheel , he reaches over and laces his fingers with mine .
The heat of his touch grounds me , even as his voice dips into a teasing drawl .
Whod have thought an asshole like me would end up with a woman with a savior complex ? Its really fucking ironic 1 scoff , rolling my eyes even as my lips twitch .
I dont have a savior complex King .
I just hate Phillips enough to help Christine And , like I said , its not really even about her its about all the other videos well find .
Hes probably taken advantage of tons of women in his career I just cant help but think that if luac had never come for me , would he have propositioned me for sex in my vulnerable state , too ? Recorded it , adding it to his sick , perverted collection ? Thats why we need to do this .
To expose his corruption .
To take down any y other sick fuck that was working with him .
Chapter 137 To create our own justice .
Kings jaw lightriss , a muscle ticking as he absorbs my words .
For a moment , the only sound in the truck is the low hum of the engine and the faint whüre of tires against asphalt .
When he finally speaks again , his voace is low and rough , barely above a growl .
That fucker shouldve suffered more .
I let him the too ravily I squeeze his hand , looking at how perfectly mine fits in his .
Well continue to get our revenge , Daddy , I say, my voice steady and sharp with purpose .
Even as he burns in hell for everything hes done .
A flicker of something dark and satisfied flickers across his face as he lifts my hand to his lips , his mouth warm and gentle on my skin .
The gesture makes me melt into a goory mess inside .
Youre right , kinen , he murmurs , his voice softer now but no less resolute .
We will 3/3
