“Now, what a bonus! I’ll take Warden’s old lady and legacy,” McKay sneered.
“Let Iona go, McKay, and walk away,” I warned, gearing up. The air crackled as I began accessing my telekinesis.
Iona was the priority; it would be difficult saving both women. Losing Lindy would gut the club, but Iona carried a baby. Decision made, I raised my hands.
McKay cackled. “Sure look different with clothes on, Dynamo. I did like spanking that birthmark on your ass,” he sneered.
My power faltered as McKay’s words hit me. Beyond stunned, I absorbed their meaning and flinched.
“Damn, girl, you forgot I was there. Ain’t sure that’s a good thing. We had such a good time; your cunt was nice and tight,” McKay stated. “Wasn’t it, boys?”
Duster grinned and held up a dart gun. Chills ran down my spine as I was catapulted back into that nightmare.
“Kill the bitches and take Dynamo!” McKay ordered.
Rattle’s hand twitched and reached out.
I hauled Iona backwards and away from the bullet that was fired several seconds later. Simultaneously, I yanked the knife from Lindy’s throat, ignoring the crythat came from her, and shoved it deep into Rattle’s shoulder. The dart hit me in the mid-chest, and the coldness of a strong sedative washed over me.
“Romeo!” I screamed instantly. Our connection snapped into place and opened. Romeo was moving before he even registered what was happening. This was what we’d practised for. Romeo slammed into my mind, corralling the drug as it seeped through my veins. The encroaching fog cleared, and I straightened and grinned at Duster.
Fear crossed McKay’s face, and he stepped back.
“Should have kept quiet,” I snarled as the air came alive. My hair began floating around me as static electricity sparked. With a scream, I tossed a heavy blast at the Screaming Barons.
They fell like skittles as I noticed movement from the side. Spinning, I turned and launched two members of the Bloody Scorpion MC against the others. Shit! Had McKay teamed up with them?
I grabbed all of them with my ability and smashed their heads against a wall.
“Dynamo! Lindy’s bleeding!” Iona yelled, panic in her voice.
As much as I wanted to stay and fight, to tear Duster and McKay apart, I was a Royal Bastard sister.
“Move,” I ordered. Reluctantly leaving McKay behind, I protected Iona and Lindy.
“Dynamo, I’ll be seeing you,” McKay threatened weakly, standing up.
“Yeah, make no mistake, McKay, you fuckin’ will,and you’ll regret everything,” I promised. “Iona, the Royal Ink, now.”
Iona didn’t argue, but scurried away with Lindy. I didn’t turn my back on those snakes. Releasing another blast, I knocked them flying, then raced towards the tattoo shop. Soar was coming out as I exited the alley.
Iona and Lindy had arrived safely.
Soar’s gun was out as he watched me close on him. He was alert and ready to shoot in an instant.
I reached him and nodded. “McKay, Duster, Knife, Rattle and Crazed are alive. They’re working with the Bloody Scorpions. Need to phone Warden.”
“Lindy’s inside with Iona. They’re both a bit shaken up. Lindy’s hurt, but not that bad, luckily enough. Spice would have gone Rambo on us,” Soar said.
I glanced over his shoulder and saw the shop had clients. “Can’t discuss this here. Warden will call church tonight. I’ll phone him now,” I stated and turned away.
“Where are you going?” Soar asked.
“Got a meeting with Rook at Illuminate.”
“Iona mentioned what McKay claimed. You okay?”
Damn it, I hoped Iona hadn’t been listening. “Peachy. Just another fucker to kill, right?”
