Mason a measure. “William asked Kerrie
for help.”
    Mason’s tongue clicked loudly as he fought hard to
restrain his fury. “This is too big for Kerrie,” he barked at Greg but he
shrugged.
    “Maybe, but anyway Kerrie sent out the guys to return the
warning. She was jumped at home, Mason, whilst the fucking babies were asleep
upstairs. The bastards need to realise they don’t do that to this family!”
    Greg was fuming and I noticed the familiar glint of anger
glaze his eyes, much the same way as Mason’s did when he was overcome by the
wrath that lived in all Mason’s team.
     
    I lifted from the chair and climbed into Mason’s lap. He
needed my presence to soothe him and he gave me a soft smile before nuzzling
into my neck, his demeanour calming immediately as his body sighed with the
contact and he relaxed slightly.
    “Has William been moved?” Mason asked without removing
his nose from my skin. His deep inhalations were making me aware of just how
angry he was and of his inner battle to control it.
    Greg nodded and shot him a glance, “Yeah, and a crew has
been secured on Tristan and the twins, two currently with Kerrie as you will
have seen. It’s gonna be hard Mase, I’m not sure how we get round this with Ric
being in custody.”
    The sinister grin that lifted Mason’s lips caused a
shiver to ripple through my body and he turned to me. “You had many dealings
with Yvette, Ric’s wife?”
    I pursed my lips and wobbled my head, “A little. She
reminds me of Rebecca, rather full of herself and a bit of a whore. Ric’s head
over with her though, can’t see why.”
    “Yeah, I know he’s a bit under the thumb where she’s
concerned. Fancy a bit of playtime, baby, I don’t like hitting women.”
    I gave him a wide smile and nodded eagerly, “Can I
pretend she’s Rebecca?”
    His head whipped back against the chair as he laughed
loudly, “You can play any way you like, my little warrior.”
    “And Ric?” Greg asked as he lifted Courtney and planted
her on his lap, his own need for her solace made me smile. I was so happy they
had fought through their rough period and now seemed stronger than ever.
    “Don’t worry about Ric, after we dangle Yvette in front
of him I have a feeling he won’t be a problem. But if he is,” his lips twisted
wryly and I felt my core clench at the sight of my glorious bastard’s criminal
authority, the maliciousness that shrouded him lighting my arousal and by the
look on Courtney’s face, hers too. “Then I have contacts that will deal with
it,” he finished with a smirk.

    Ava laughed on my knee and I glanced at her. “You have
contacts everywhere Mason, I’m sure Ric will have taken this into account.”
    “I’m positive he will have, he will have currently upped
his protection inside. I am counting on his knowledge that I don’t hit women.”
    She frowned at me and I kissed the tip of her nose and
lifted her off my knee so I could refill my glass, “The thing with Ric is he
doesn’t take all scenarios into consideration, he never has. Plus he’s a selfish
bastard and I know he won’t have even thought about his wife other than knowing
I won’t drag her into it.”
    “And…” she pressed with a slight mocking and I narrowed
my eyes on her. Was she baiting me? Her sarcastic tone rebounded off the
central part of my brain and pulled at my gut in slight anger.
    “And, he doesn’t know you, does he?”
    She scoffed and made her way to the stereo to select a
different playlist on the iPod. “Mason, whilst I agree in a way and I would
love a go at Yvette, wouldn’t it just be easier to call your contact on the
inside and just finish the bastard?”
    I lifted an eyebrow at her reservation and lack of trust.
She lifted her own eyebrow back at me and quickly lowered it when a faint growl
rumbled through my chest. “Don’t doubt me, Ava; you should know that by now.”
    She rolled her lips, as though trying to hold back her
laughter
