“Yeah, you do. If you want it.”
I nodded. Oh, hell yes, I wanted. We were going home. To our home. Our bed.
And I couldn’t fucking wait.
He stubbed out his cigarette. “Then it’s a plan.”
As I slipped off his lap, the door opened, and another one of the Cobras rushed in. He stood in the doorway, fidgeting with his helmet in his hands, looking like he’d just seen a ghost.
Cullen dragged on his cigarette. “What is it, Zain? Is it Jet?”
He nodded. “Yeah. Nix is at the hospital with him right now,” he said, looking directly at Drake. “They were taking him into surgery when I left. But it’s bad. The doctor said it’s really bad. He’s lost too much blood. They don’t think he’s gonna make it.”
Drake’s arm tensed around me. He looked down at me, in apology, and said, “I’ve got to get over there.”
I nodded. “I know.” After all, he was his best friend. Jet may have been loyal, but Drake was the same. All the Cobras were. They were his family, and I wanted them to be my family, too. I wanted it desperately.
He grabbed his bloody jacket and threw it on over his chest. I followed him as he rushed for the door, but he stopped short and turned. “Where are you going? Stay here. I can have Zain drive you—”
“No,” I said, in my most commanding voice. I grabbed his hand. “You can’t get rid of me. Wherever you go, I want to be with you, Drake. It’s just like you said. We’re a team now, right?”
His mouth twisted up into a smile. He wrapped an arm around me and kissed the top of my head. “All right. Then let’s go.”
I smiled. “Let me just check on my mom.”
I went to the sofa, where she was fast asleep. She’d had quite the night. We all had. “She’ll be fine here,” Drake said. “My brothers will watch after her.”
I knew they would. I took a blanket off the back of the sofa and laid it over her, tucking her in the way she’d tucked me in so many nights before.
Then Drake and I rushed outside, and I climbed onto his bike, wrapping my arms around his stomach and squeezing him tightly. His muscles were coiled tight as springs, his body rigid with tension. “It’ll be okay,” I whispered to him, kissing the Cobra on the back of his leather jacket. “Everything will be okay.”
And for the first time in a long time, I actually believed it was true. Nothing, and no amount of Hell’s Fury, could stop us now.
He turned the ignition and revved the engine, driving us toward the hospital and into the first light of morning.
It would take some time to get over all the hate and anger I felt. But I knew with Drake, we could conquer anything.
