He parks behind Violet and it pisses me off how unhurried he acts Emily’s inside Emily’s inside with the Riot and what really makes me mad is that Eli won’t tell et in the truck and we took off

Eli didn’t tell anyone else He didn’t call for backup We drove for an hour and a half and until a fewin?" I bite

"Because Eht be Even Violet isn’t in the clear, but they won’t harm Emily Thirty bucks says she’s in there with ures that, but there areto handle this?" The gun’s strapped to my back and I eye the one that’s on Eli’s hip He’s a felon and legally he can’t carry, but that hasn’t stopped him

Eli waves to the two men in Riot cuts that exit the house and watch the two of us "We’re going to give theure out that we aren’t co in fast and hard Then we’ll walk up and knock on the front door"

"You’re kidding ? You and Emily watch too much TV"

There’s no way this is real "How did she end up on the Riot’s doorstep?"

Eli circles the keys on his finger "Meg’s father is the head of the Riot"

It’s like so with h that I’ parts, but here’s the short of it The Riot deals with soot hurt by the to live with a grandh school and to heal from so touch to the s to form on his lips "Motorcycle clubs hat she’d known Grown up with It was natural that she gravitated to us, but then she figured out that ere different That eren’t like the Riot, and Meg’s life began to change Her parents were pissed when they found out aboutand then they went radioactive when they found out she was pregnant"

With E and insisted she move in with us e told the, we pro and Emily from her parents and from her parents’ club and that was the day battle lines were drawn"

"Did the Riot know that the Terror existed before then?"

"Maybe, who the fuck knows," answers Eli "We were starting to branch out into other states, but ere still flying under the radar When the club backed Meg, the Riot became very aware of us The Riot was pissed we never asked their permission to form, never asked for their permission to ride, and we sure as hell didn’t have their perhter"

"How did they react to that?" I ask

"For two years it never stopped Our guys would be hanging out at bars and the Riot would hunt theame to the on their walls They’d try to run our guys off the road Cause probleer one on Meg Twice she toldto leave She packed her and Eht she got a phone call fro if he couldit was a peace offering"

I lower ood would have co ht before and I was at the hospital watching his back Meg thought she could fix everything"

Eli trails off and htens into a fist I’ve never heard this I’ve never heard that my father was taken down by the Riot so badly he was hospitalized "What happened?"

"The bastard tried to take E brother hit herin front ofscreaot away, but then Meg came home and I saw the bruises on her body and I saw the terror on Eht before when I saw that guy grabbing Eer flashes from Eli’s dark eyes "Fuck yeah, I did That bastard hurt the woman I loved and my child His club had sent my best friend to the hospital Cyrus and the Terror wanted to wait a few days for me to calm down and then vote on how to handle this in Church I wanted retaliation because every single tiot a slap on the hand because the police couldn’t or wouldn’t prove shit"

This is what I was raised to believe: that Eone after him They left out the part where this was linked to the Riot They left out that Eet I was also raised to believe that "Meg snitched Dad said that Meg was the one that ratted you out"

"She did She told me that if I went after her family in retaliation then I was no better than them She told me up front that she’d call the police onknew me She kne oing to end up dead and she couldn’t live witha killer so when I left to meet her brother, she called the police"
