Chapter 145 Alyssal I wake up to an empty bed , but the sheets are still warm , evidence that they havent been gone long Guys ! I squeak , my voice barely breaking the silence as I slowly sit up , glancing around the dimly lit room .
But theres no sign of King .
Niko , or Mason The clock reads 3 am .
I can see King waking up this early , but that doesnt explain where Niko and Mason are After a quick stop in the bathroom , I tiptoe down the stairs .
Halfway down .
I hear their muffled voices .
I pause , crouching slightly as I strain to listen .
Somethings off about this Vince guy Niko says , his voice low but laced with suspicion .
But I cant find anything too out of the ordinary in his records .
Just regular mobs shit , Theres a reason youre vice president , Niko , Mason replies , his tone measured .
We trust your intuition .
That means we need to keep an eye on him and also continue to keep Alyssa and the babies away from the clubhouse until we know for sure .
Agreed , King rumbles A beat of silence passes before Niko smoothly changes the subject .
You deleted Christines video , right ? Mason exhales sharply .
Yeah .
But I watched the entire thing to make sure she wasnt hiding anything Disgust laces his voice .
Lets just say I wanna bleach my fucking eyes now .
Niko groans .
Jesus , I cant even imagine .
You might actually need therapy now Kitten , why dont you come join us , King suddenly commands , his voice cutting through the air .
I freeze .
Damn , how did he know ? The burn in my knees tells me I havent moved in a long time .
Have they known this entire time and just let me crouch on the stairs looking stupid Youve been listening for a while .
Niko calls out , amusement in his tone .
Youre not exactly sneaky , baby I stomp the rest of the way down , glaring at him .
Whats that supposed to meant You saying Im heavy now ? Like a damn hippo Niko smirks , his blue eyes sparkling mischievously .
Not yet .
But I cant wait for the day youre waddling around , cant see over your belly , and we have to shave your legs and your pussy 1 blink at him , my mouth dropping open .
Those are ..
weird things to look forward to He shrugs , unapologetic .
You love that Im weird .
Before I can respond , he strides over , scoops me up effortlessly , and drops back onto the couch with me in his lap .
Dont you ? he murmurs , licking a wet trail along the curve of my neck , making me shiver .
Maybe , I admit , trying not to smile .
But what I dont love is waking up alone .
Niko chuckles , brushing his thumb across my bottom lip .
Are you actually pouting right now , sweet girl ? he teases .
Kings dark eyes flick to me , his gaze heating as he leans back in his chair .
Yeah , she is .
Next time , kitten , Ill make sure to bring you downstairs with sis.
You can sleep in my lap with my cock buried deep inside you .
Would you like that ? My breath hatches Inod , my voice barely above a whisper .
Yes , Daddy rasps , his smirk sending a rush of heat through me .
Mason clears his throat , his tone softer as he speaks .
We didnt mean to worry you , lule warrior .
None of us could sleep after seeing those pictures .
My stomach clinches .
Of course , they couldnt just forget , but seeing them this upset bothers me more than anything .
Mason shifts closer , his green eyes locking with air .
I need your consent for something I found Mia Willow .
After she was fired from the police department , she went back to work at her fathers hardware store .
Phillips really made sure she lost everything when she threatened to expose him .
I havent contacted her yet , but if you agree , I can anonymously send her everything on the hard drives .
But I need to know if youre okay with these photos being released .
Theyll surface in die media eventually , but this way , we can use them against Isaac .
4:12 PM c Chapter 145 He steps forward , cupping my face gently.
What do you want to I swallow hard , my heart pounding as I melt into his steady , unwavering gaze .
LI need to see them first .
Mason studies me for a moment before nodding .
He retrieves the laptop and hands it to me .
The room falls silent as I click through the images .
Each one is worse than the last , my bruised and battered body staring back at me from the screen .

Damn , Isase really fucked me up .
I look broken shattered .
A far cry from the woman I am now .
The woman they helped me become .
Nikos hands rub soothing circles over my arms , his lips pressing soft kisses along my shoulder .
I can feel his anger simmering , but he stays composed for me .
They all do .
Youre so fucking strong , Niko murmurs , his voice thick with admiration .
Not only did you survive that , but youve risen above it .
Youre our queen , Alyssa our beautiful , fierce queen Emotion swells in my chest , pressing tight against my ribcage .
I swear , you guys make me feel way stronger than I am sometimes , I whisper .
Niko snorts .
From what King told us old us you did to Phillips , I think youre stronger than you give yourself credit for .
But youre getting there , and well continue to build you up , baby A small smile twitches on my lips as I glance up at Mason .
I want you to do it .
Give her everything so justice can be served Mason nods .
Ill do it as soon as possible Suddenly , the sharp , collective busz of their phones cuts through the moment .
Niko glances at his phone first , his expression darkening .
What the fuck ? Why did Gray d Gray just make a group chat with the four of ust My stomach plummets , What ? I realize too late that I left my phone upstairs on the nightstand .
Apprehension knots in my gut .
What the hell did Christine tell him ? And why do I already have the feeling that whatever it was wasnt the truth ? Shes already shown that all she cares about is herself .
I have no doubt that even after risking our freedom and lives to help her yesterday , nothing about that has changed .
King and Mason check their phones next .
King grunts , Fuck , while Mason shakes his head , his face unreadable .
This isnt good , Mason mutters My throat goes dry .
What does it say ! Niko looks up , his blue eyes hard .
Gray wants us at the clubhouse in an hour .
Says to bring you and make sure Zuri has a babysitter because he pauses , his jaw clenching .
Because what ? I whisper .
His hand settles protectively over my belly .
Because , in his words , were gonna have a long fucking chat about loyalty ! .
A sick wave of nausea rolls over me , the weight of those words sinking deep .
Loyalty , I already know this isnt going to be just a talk .
This is a warning .
And if it comes down to blood bring spilled , it sure as hell wont be any of my mens awa tham da danner the better ber for the chitginem heulina har usią E
