“You can’t say no! Myka’s confused and needs help,” Wanda-Faye replied. She glanced at me and jeered.
“I said no. You deaf?”
“Ain’t no need to be rude. We’re gonna take Myka home, correct her lies and behaviour,” Billy-Ray slurred.
“Think Myka’s had enough of your correction. No man should beat women,” Calamity sneered. “There are better ways of handling women.”
“Look here—”
“Mr President,” Calamity interrupted Wanda-Faye. Her eyes narrowed, and Calamity smiled nastily.
“Myka has to pull the statement; she’s gonna get my boys into trouble,” Wanda-Faye snapped.
“Mr President,” Calamity repeated.
“Mr President,” Wanda-Faye ground out. Oh, hell, this was becoming funny. Wanda-Faye had met someone she couldn’t make cower.
“Yeah. Ain’t happening. One of my men has taken a liking to her. Now, I’m not gonna disappoint them. And your three sons beat the shit out of a defenceless woman.”
“My boys were correcting Myka’s deviant behaviour,” Wanda-Faye retorted.
Calamity cocked an eyebrow.
“Mr President,” Wanda-Faye ground out. Her eyes flicked over the bare chests on display, and Wanda-Faye inadvertently licked her lips. Oh gross.
“Which was?”
“What?”
“What was Myka’s deviant behaviour?” Calamity demanded.
“I…” Wanda-Faye stumbled. “Myka can talk for herself!”
“Not without my permission. Now I want to know what Myka did that led to three grown men, twice her size, nearly beating her to death.” Calamity folded her arms.
Wanda-Faye glanced at Billy-Rae, who was staring at me with lust in his eyes.
“Jesus Christ,” Falcon whispered in disgust. He’d caught it.
“Bitch back chatted her man and didn’t show enough respect. Look at her, enticing my husband,” Wanda-Faye said.
“Like you, then. You keep dropping my title and making demands; that’s disrespectful. And Myka’s sitting in a chair beaten black and blue, and you think she’s flirting with your trash husband? Get real. Why would Myka want him when she can have one of my brothers?” Calamity nodded to Rodrigo. The gates opened, and they all stepped back.
“Grab her,” Calamity ordered.
“What?” Wanda-Faye shrieked.
“You showed disrespect; three of mine are gonna beat the crap out of you.”
“But I’m female!” Wanda-Faye yelled.
“So is Myka. Take her!” Ghost, Hunter, and Steel moved quickly and grabbed Wanda-Faye. Her family didn’t even react. The rest of the brothers stood in front of them as she was dragged towards us. Wanda-Faye began mouthing off, and casually Ghost slapped her face. She gaped in shock. I barely held my emotions in.
“Ghost pulled the blow, Myka. Trust me, he hasn’t hurt her, just surprised her,” Falcon muttered. I was tense as I stared at the ground.
“Women should be seen and not heard. Now, which of you spineless cunts are gonna deal with my President?” Ghost rumbled.
“Let my woman go,” Billy-Ray finally spoke up.
