Four or Dead Leo

"Shit." I hear Jayden yell suddenly while we sit around the living room eating some takeout from a nearby burger joint. 7

When I stopped by to pick up our stuff the owner was surprised to see me again. Emma had been making it her mission to try and cook all our meals, so it had been a while since we had to resort to our usual fast-food spots..')

"What?" I ask him pulling my attention away from my tablet

"Emma's tracker signal, It's gone," Jayden growls out slamming a bit too

hard on the keys of his laptop

"What the hell do you mean it's gone, Jay?" Asher asks angrily standing and looking about ready to kill our friend

"It's gone offline. Which should not be possible." Jayden explains

"What could cause it?" I ask him

"The tracker works by satellite communication instead of radio signals which are detectable. Which means something has scrambled the signal or her tracker is destroyed." Jayden continues

"What do we do? Can we restart the program and try to sync with the

satellite again?" I ask

"Tm trying but the signal is gone," Jayden says before standing and clutching his laptop tightly

We all stop moving and watch him. He can be scary and unpredictable when he loses his temper and this is one of those times when we have no idea how he will react. He loves Emma and if the one thing he hoped would keep us connected to her is gone, he is going to blow. As if summoning the darkness in him, I watch him lift his laptop and throw it full force at the nearest wall. His expression doesn't shift once even at the sight of his laptop breaking into pieces and falling to the floor. \*

Then he turns and walks out of the room without a word

"This isn't good," Logan says turning back to us after watching Jayden leave. "He is going to do something stupid."

"We need to find him an outlet before he starts hurting people," Asher says jumping to his feet and pulling out his phone

There is silence while we wait to see what he has in mind

"Hey Tony, do you have one?" Asher asks one of Devaro's trusted men

"Good, don't touch them. We will handle it. Okay, see you soon." I?

"They have someone for Jay?" Logan asks with a smirk on his face

He gets too much pleasure from watching people be beaten to an inch

of their life, but he hardly ever gets his hands dirty. He is a pretty boy and hates to get blood on his hands unless it's for a good enough reason. There is only one person he will willingly break skin for now,

and we are all willing to get our hands dirty for that guy

Zane Dalton

Even I would be willing to throw a few blows at him when we finally get our girl back. I usually prefer a bullet to a fist, but I would be willing to make an exception for that bastard

"What do they got?" Logan asks standing and leisurely stretching his arms above his head

"Apparently they finally captured one of the men from the latest attack on our stash house. Unlike the others, he doesn't seem to be in a rush to die. They have him strung up at one of the safe houses, so I told them Jay will do the interrogation." Asher tells us while typing something on his phone, no doubt sending a text to Jay about our new plans for tonight

"Let's gear up," Asher says leaving the room with Logan and me on his heels. CJ

We all head toward the stairs and split up to our rooms to get changed

We all have a set look when it comes to crew business. We aren't just any thugs, we are four of the most deadly members of our crew, and we dress like it

With Emma gone, we're all on edge and this was the perfect chance to get some of that anger and frustration out

'When I open my closet I spot my gear right away

Black t-shirt, black cargo pants, a bulletproof vest with about a dozen pockets, and my black combat boots

Jayden and I are not as bulky as Asher and Logan but with our gear, we look every bit as deadly as our brothers

I strap my vest tight to my chest and open the box I keep in the safe at the back of my closet. My weapons safe. Inside I have a variety of handguns, knives, the random granade, and a slew of bullets. I pick out my favorite gun, the Smith and Wesson M&P 9. It's new and angry looking but so far it's done well, so it's been my go-to recently

As a precaution, I also add a few knives to my vest as well along with a couple of clips, ready and waiting. Who knows, maybe we can check up on a few of our suppliers when we finish with the rat. \*)

As I said, we all have a lot of anger to get out now that Emma is away

We pulled back a lot when she came, trying to be better men, but we needed this, or we would go crazy sitting around waiting to hear if she is okay

"Leo let's go!" Asher yells through my door after banging on it hard and loud

"T'm coming!" I yell back, my voice nearly a growl

Yeah tensions between us were already starting, we need to get out of here and find a release. God help the man who will be under our care

tonight, he will beg for death before we're done with him

Jayden

Ihave a talent for keeping my emotions in check mostly because not much gets me riled up. That is unless it involves Emma. She is my everything now and only she can pull out any real emotion from me. I smile around her and only her more than I have with anyone in a long time. She is the love of my life and not knowing where she is or what is happening has me so wound up that keeping my anger tapped down feels impossible

When Asher sent the messaging saying we had plans for tonight, I felt thrilled. I needed this. To feel blood in my hands. To hurt someone the way I am hurting right now. I know that makes me a monster, but I am way past caring..*

All the anger I keep pent up goes toward doing my job, being one of the deadliest Angel in our crew. My lack of emotion makes killing and torturing come easy to me. The guys know shit is about to go down when I get as angry as I had earlier. They are the only ones I allow to see even the smallest amount of my real emotions. They know when to get out of my way when I get like this._'

"We're ready Jay," Asher says meeting me next to the kitchen island

Leo and Logan trail after him in their all-black gear. We always wor all black when we did crew work. The look was ideal for a lot of reasons. To keep us hidden at night, to intimidate in the daylight, and to hide blood. We didn't need to get all dressed up for an interrogation, but I hoped that any intel we get from this guy will lead us to something good and this night can get more interesting. \')

Zane Dalton is in my crosshairs and I am ready to take a shot at his organization. Maybe one or two at the man himself. I can't kill him, not yet but soon

Very soon

He will feel the full extent of the beast inside me when the time comes and not just mine but everyone who cares for Emma. Which now includes Devaro and four of his top men. That guy doesn't stand a chance, and he will know it real soonNôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.

"Let's get this done," I say walking around the island and past my brothers, leading them to our front door. I'

**#

It takes us thirty minutes to reach just outside of the city to the edge of the surrounding woods and toward one of our closest safe houses. We have ten that lead further north but this is the one we currently use for these special conversations

We pull up to the unassuming cabin and park our car around back. Two

of our guys are standing guard in front of the house and two more around the back door. When we step out and head for the back door they nod to us before letting us pass

When we step inside I hear muffled screams. One of our men was getting our guest ready for us, perfect

We pass through the kitchen and through the swinging door leading to the living room. There is nothing in the room besides one chair which currently had a sweaty sobbing rat strapped to it

Just a heads up: is the only place to read the complete version of this book for free. Don't miss out on the next chapter-visit us now and continue your journey! "Tony! What are you doing here man?" Logan asks throwing an arm around Tony's shoulder. [?)

"Just warming things up for you guys. Plus things are too quiet for me and I needed to get my blood pumping. I hate waiting around, it's the worst part of this job." Tony mumbles in annoyance

"Dad doesn't have you on recon?" Asher asks

"Nah, he wanted to make sure we get something out of this guy as soon as possible. He hopes he'll spill enough that we can hit Dalton hard. I think he wants to quicken things along so Miss Emma isn't there longer than she needs to be. I don't like it. I mean I trained her and she picked things up like a pro but I don't like her there either. I don't like her unprotected." Tony says with a snarl..°

Emma has easily drawn a crowd of protectors to her and even though I should be jealous, I know these guys well enough that I have no reason

to be. They see Emma as one of us, the mo important one f us and I am glad of it. I could probably go so far as to say they would protect her from any of us or even Devaro if need be. Tony was one of those loyal kinds and when he ars his loyalty, he holds to it. He would die to protect Emma and that gives me peace of mind. I"

The other crew members haven't had a chance to get to know Emma, but I know when they do they will all be glad to swear to protect her

She has this way about her that brings everyone to her side, and she doesn't even have to try. Actually, she would make a great leader of the Angels if we didn't have plans to leave this life once this is all over.')

"We don't like it either but Emma is stubborn when she wants to be and there is nothing we can do now that won't blow her cover

Unfortunately, that means we are stuck twiddling our thumbs until we get the green light to go in." Logan says moving away from Tony and stepping in front of the man strapped to the chair. I!

He leans down and smiles widely. "Hello there. We are going to have some fun together." *)

Logan removes the man's gag and the guy gives him a cocky smirk like he thinks he won the lottery to have Logan interrogate him. Logan has that charm that makes people misjudge him and think they are safe around him, even with his size

Logan knows this so he says, "Oh you won't be talking to me, you'll be talking to him." Logan turns to me and steps away

I step forward with my arms crossed and my cold expressionless face on tight. My expressionless face is always enough to get people sweating, everyone except Emma. She just cocks her head at me with one eyebrow raised and I melt. She isn't put off by my cold exterior and she doesn't let it push her away

This guy, however, his cocky face falls the moment his eyes meet mine

He knows he's in trouble and that is what makes me smile. A smile that

promises pain and blood

Two of my favorite things

Time to go to work
