"Get Down!" The Boy Threw Himself Over The Girl ,But He Didn't Know Her Dad Was The Hells Angels VP — Transcript
Full transcript
- 0:00Gunfire erupted, shattering the diner
- 0:02window before anyone could blink. A
- 0:0519-year-old kid instantly threw his body
- 0:08over his first date, taking a bullet to
- 0:11shield her. He thought he was saving an
- 0:13ordinary college girl, completely
- 0:16unaware he was bleeding for the daughter
- 0:18of a ruthless Hell's Angels boss. Calb
- 0:21Wyatt was just a normal guy. He was a
- 0:2419-year-old mechanical engineering
- 0:26student at San Jose State, spending his
- 0:30weekends up to his elbows in Greece at a
- 0:32local auto repair shop to pay for his
- 0:35tuition. He was quiet, hardworking, and
- 0:38deeply ordinary. His biggest source of
- 0:41anxiety wasn't gang violence or criminal
- 0:44syndicates. It was figuring out how to
- 0:47ask out the girl who sat two rows ahead
- 0:49of him in his morning chemistry lecture.
- 0:52Her name was Khloe Bennett. She was an
- 0:54art history major with a pension for
- 0:57oversized vintage sweaters and acquired
- 1:00almost guarded demeanor. She never
- 1:02raised her hand, never lingered after
- 1:05class to chat with the other students,
- 1:07and always had a black SUV waiting for
- 1:10her two blocks away from campus. Calb
- 1:13just assumed she came from money. He
- 1:16didn't know that the SUV was armored or
- 1:18that the driver carried a legally
- 1:20registered concealed Glock 19. After 3
- 1:24months of stolen glances and awkward
- 1:26hallway smiles, Caleb finally worked up
- 1:29the nerve. To his absolute shock, Khloe
- 1:33said yes. They agreed to meet at
- 1:35Carson's Grill, an old school neon lit
- 1:38diner tucked away on the border of
- 1:40Oakland and San Leandro. It was neutral
- 1:42territory, a place known for burnt
- 1:44coffee, excellent cherry pie, and an
- 1:47unspoken rule that trouble stayed
- 1:49outside its doors. It was a Tuesday
- 1:51evening. The diner was half empty, the
- 1:54air smelling of fried onions and stale
- 1:57bleach. Calb sat across from Khloe in a
- 2:00faded red vinyl booth near the back
- 2:02window. The date was going better than
- 2:04he could have ever hoped. Chloe was
- 2:07laughing at his terrible jokes about his
- 2:09rusted out Ford pickup. And for a
- 2:12moment, the guarded wall she always kept
- 2:15up seemed to completely vanish. "I don't
- 2:18usually do this," Khloe admitted,
- 2:20stirring her coffee with a plastic
- 2:22spoon. "Her eyes flicked toward the
- 2:24front door, a subtle unconscious habit
- 2:28hadn't yet learned to recognize. Go out
- 2:31with people from class, I mean. My
- 2:34family is complicated. Complicated like
- 2:37we argue over Thanksgiving dinner.
- 2:39Complicated or complicated like my dad
- 2:42is a super villain. Complicated. Caleb
- 2:45joked, flashing an easy smile. Khloe's
- 2:48smile faltered for a fraction of a
- 2:50second. Something like that. Before
- 2:53Caleb could ask what she meant, the
- 2:55heavy glass doors of Carson's grill
- 2:58swung open with a violent crash. The
- 3:01bell above the door didn't just jingle.
- 3:03It ripped off its hinges as two men
- 3:06stormed inside. They didn't wear masks,
- 3:09which was the first terrifying sign. Men
- 3:12who don't hide their faces don't plan on
- 3:15leaving witnesses. They wore heavy dark
- 3:18coats, their eyes scanning the room with
- 3:20cold predatory efficiency. One of them,
- 3:24a tall, heavily tattooed man with a
- 3:26jagged scar running down his jawline,
- 3:29pulled a sword off shotgun from beneath
- 3:32his coat. The other drew a modified
- 3:34automatic pistol. They didn't look at
- 3:36the cash register. They didn't look at
- 3:38the terrified waitress behind the
- 3:40counter. Their eyes locked directly onto
- 3:43the back booth. They locked onto Chloe.
- 3:47"There," the scarred man shouted,
- 3:49racking the shotgun. Calb didn't think.
- 3:52There was no time for higher brain
- 3:54function, no time to weigh the odds or
- 3:57assess the situation. It was pure primal
- 4:00instinct. "Get down!" Caleb roared. He
- 4:04lunged across the table, his full body
- 4:07weight slamming into Khloe just as the
- 4:09first deafening blast erupted. The world
- 4:13dissolved into chaos. The thick plate
- 4:16glass window beside them exploded
- 4:18inward, raining down razor sharp shards.
- 4:22The ceramic coffee mugs shattered,
- 4:24sending scalding liquid flying. Calb
- 4:27pressed Khloe to the sticky lenolium
- 4:29floor beneath the table, wrapping his
- 4:31arms around her head to shield her.
- 4:34Bullets tore through the vinyl booth
- 4:36where they had been sitting a
- 4:38millisecond prior. The sound was
- 4:40agonizing a rapid concussive booming
- 4:43that rattled Calb's teeth and filled the
- 4:46diner with the acrid choking stench of
- 4:49gunpowder and pulverized plaster. Stay
- 4:52down. Don't move. Caleb yelled over the
- 4:56gunfire, his voice cracking with terror.
- 5:00He could feel Chloe trembling beneath
- 5:02him, her hands gripping his shirt with
- 5:04desperate strength. He felt a sudden
- 5:07searing heat rip across his left
- 5:09shoulder like a hot iron pressing
- 5:12directly into his skin. He gasped, his
- 5:15vision swimming for a second, but he
- 5:18refused to loosen his grip on her. He
- 5:20clamped his eyes shut, waiting for the
- 5:22final shot, waiting for the footsteps to
- 5:25approach their ruined booth. But then a
- 5:28different sound echoed through the
- 5:30diner. Bang! Bang! Bang! Sullivan! The
- 5:35grizzled old marine who owned Carson's
- 5:38Grill had kicked open the kitchen doors
- 5:40with a 38 revolver in his hands, firing
- 5:43blindly toward the attackers. It was
- 5:46enough to break their momentum. The
- 5:48hitmen, realizing they had lost the
- 5:51element of surprise and not wanting a
- 5:53drawn out firefight, backed out the
- 5:56shattered front doors, laying down a
- 5:58final wave of suppressive fire before
- 6:01peeling out in a screeching sedan. Then
- 6:05there was silence. Just the hiss of a
- 6:07ruptured coffee machine and the
- 6:09whimpering of a patron hiding behind the
- 6:12counter. "Chloe, Chloe, are you hit?"
- 6:15Caleb gasped, slowly rolling off her.
- 6:18His ears were ringing so loudly he could
- 6:21barely hear his own voice. He pulled
- 6:24himself up, wincing as a sharp,
- 6:26agonizing pain flared in his left
- 6:29shoulder. He reached up and his hand
- 6:31came away wet and crimson. A bullet had
- 6:34grazed him, a deep, ugly trench torn
- 6:37through the flesh of his upper arm.
- 6:40Khloe scrambled up from the debris. She
- 6:42wasn't crying. That was the first thing
- 6:45Caleb noticed. Any normal college girl
- 6:48would be in hysterics, screaming, or in
- 6:50a state of catatonic shock. But Khloe's
- 6:54face was set in a mask of terrifying,
- 6:56icy composure. She looked at Calb's
- 6:59bleeding arm, then at the bullet holes
- 7:02shredding the wall behind them. "I'm
- 7:04fine," she breathed out, her hand
- 7:07shaking slightly as she brushed glass
- 7:09from her sweater. "You're bleeding. It's
- 7:12just a graze," Carp said, his adrenaline
- 7:15masking the worst of the pain. He
- 7:18reached into his pocket with his good
- 7:20arm. And calling 911, Khloe's hand shot
- 7:24out, ribbing his wrist with surprising
- 7:27force.
- 7:28No, put the phone away. Calb stared at
- 7:31her, utterly confused. Chloe, people
- 7:34just tried to murder us with a shotgun.
- 7:37We need the police. I need an ambulance.
- 7:40If the police get here, this gets a 100
- 7:43times worse, Chloe said, her voice
- 7:46dropping to an urgent, frantic whisper.
- 7:48She reached into her own pocket and
- 7:50pulled out a heavy blocky burner phone,
- 7:52not the sleek smartphone Caleb saw her
- 7:55use in class. She dialed a single digit
- 7:58and held it to her ear. It's me, she
- 8:01said into the receiver. Carson's grill
- 8:04on East 14th. Two hitters. I'm okay, but
- 8:08it's public. Hurry. Um, she hung up,
- 8:12dropping the phone back into her pocket,
- 8:15and turned to Caleb. You need to leave.
- 8:18Go out the back door through the
- 8:19kitchen. Run down the alley and don't
- 8:22stop until you're back at your dorm. If
- 8:25anyone asks, you were never here. Are
- 8:27you insane? Calb demanded, pressing a
- 8:31napkin against his bleeding shoulder.
- 8:34And not leaving you here in the middle
- 8:36of a war zone. What if they come back?
- 8:39Who did you just call? Before Chloe
- 8:42could answer, a sound began to build in
- 8:45the distance. It didn't sound like
- 8:47police sirens. It sounded like thunder
- 8:50rolling down the asphalt. The low
- 8:53guttural vibration shook the remaining
- 8:55glass in the diner's window frames. It
- 8:58grew louder, more aggressive until the
- 9:00roar of a dozen heavy V twin motorcycle
- 9:03engines filled the air, completely
- 9:06drowning out the ambient noise of the
- 9:08city. Calb watched in stunned silence as
- 9:11a pack of massive custombuilt
- 9:13motorcycles swarmed the parking lot of
- 9:16the diner, blocking off the entrances
- 9:18and exits. The riders cut their engines
- 9:21in unison, leaving an eerie, heavy
- 9:24silence in their wake. They were massive
- 9:26men, clad in heavy leather cuts and
- 9:29thick denim. On their backs, the
- 9:32unmistakable terrifying emblem of the
- 9:34Hell's Angels Motorcycle Club was
- 9:37stitched in blood red and stark white.
- 9:40The bottom rocker on their vests, read
- 9:43California. The doors to the diner
- 9:46didn't just open, they were shoved
- 9:47aside. At the head of the pack was a man
- 9:50who seemed to suck all the air out of
- 9:53the room. He was easily 6'4, built like
- 9:57a freight train with a thick silver
- 9:59streaked beard and cold dead blue eyes.
- 10:03Tattoos crept up his neck, disappearing
- 10:06into his hairline. A leather cut hung
- 10:09over his broad shoulders bearing the
- 10:11patch of Vice President Oakland. This
- 10:15was Declan Reaper Bennett. Dad," Khloe
- 10:18said softly. Calb's stomach plummeted.
- 10:21The room started to spin, and it wasn't
- 10:24from the blood loss. To add, Declan
- 10:27Bennett didn't look at the terrified
- 10:29diner owner, nor at the bullet holes. He
- 10:32marched straight to the back booth, his
- 10:34heavy boots crunching over the broken
- 10:36glass. He grabbed Khloe by the
- 10:38shoulders, his massive, calloused hands
- 10:41turning her left and right, checking her
- 10:44for bullet holes. When he was satisfied
- 10:46she was unheard, his posture relaxed,
- 10:48but only by a millimeter. "Your sloppy,
- 10:52Chloe," Declan growled, his voice like
- 10:55gravel grinding in a cement mixer. "I
- 10:58told you to take the armored car. I
- 11:01wanted to be normal for one night," she
- 11:04shot back, her tone defensive, but laced
- 11:07with guilt. Declan's cold eyes finally
- 11:10snapped off his daughter and landed on
- 11:13Caleb. He took in the kid's pale face,
- 11:16the terrified posture, and the blood
- 11:18soaked napkin pressed against his
- 11:20shoulder. Two of the club's enforcers
- 11:23stepped up behind Declan, their hands
- 11:26resting entirely too close to the heavy
- 11:28bulges under their leather jackets. "Who
- 11:30the hell is this?" Declan demanded,
- 11:33pointing a massive finger at Carb. His
- 11:36name is Calibb, Khloe said quickly,
- 11:39stepping between them. "He's from my
- 11:41university, Dad." They had a shotgun.
- 11:43They had me dead to rights. Caleb
- 11:46tackled me. He threw himself over me. He
- 11:49took a bullet for me. Declan slowly
- 11:52stepped around his daughter towering
- 11:54over Caleb. The biker smelled of motor
- 11:57oil, stale tobacco, and violence. He
- 12:00looked at the shattered booth, tracing
- 12:02the trajectory of the bullet holes with
- 12:04his eyes, and then looked back at the
- 12:06bloody groove torn through Caleb's arm.
- 12:10You saved my daughter? Declan asked. It
- 12:13wasn't a thank you. It sounded like an
- 12:15interrogation. I I just reacted, sir.
- 12:19Calb stammered, his heart hammering
- 12:21against his ribs. I didn't know who she
- 12:24was. I just didn't want her to die.
- 12:28Declan stared at him for a long,
- 12:30agonizing moment. Did you see their
- 12:33faces? Caleb hesitated. His mind flashed
- 12:36back to the chaotic seconds before the
- 12:38gunfire. Yes, no masks. The guy with a
- 12:42shotgun had a jagged scar on his jawline
- 12:45and a teardrop tattoo under his left
- 12:47eye. One of the enforcers behind Declan,
- 12:51hissed through his teeth. The Santos
- 12:53brothers, the cartel's new debt
- 12:56collectors. They're making a play.
- 12:58Declan didn't flinch, but his eyes
- 13:01darkened. He looked at Caleb, really
- 13:04looking at him. this time, a civilian, a
- 13:07witness, a college kid who just got an
- 13:10unauthorized look at the men trying to
- 13:12spark a cartel war with the Hell's
- 13:14Angels. Sir, if it's all the same to
- 13:18you, I'm just going to go to the
- 13:20hospital, Calip said, taking a cautious
- 13:23step backward. I won't say a word to the
- 13:25cops. I swear.
- 13:28>> [clears throat]
- 13:28>> Declan reached out with lightning speed,
- 13:30his massive hand clamping down on
- 13:32Caleb's uninjured shoulder with the
- 13:35force of a vise. Calb gasped in pain.
- 13:38"You're not going to a hospital, kid,"
- 13:41Declan said, his voice dangerously calm.
- 13:44"Hoss ask questions. Hospitals call the
- 13:47police." "And right now, you're the only
- 13:50person who can positively ID the men who
- 13:53just tried to put my little girl in a
- 13:55body bag." Dad, no! Chloe shouted, panic
- 14:00finally breaking through her icy facade.
- 14:03Let him go. He has nothing to do with
- 14:05this. Declan ignored her. He looked at
- 14:09his sergeant at arms. Patch up his arm
- 14:12at the clubhouse. We're taking him with
- 14:14us. Wait, what? No. Calb struggled, but
- 14:19two massive bikers grabbed him by the
- 14:22arms, practically lifting him off the
- 14:24floor. You saved her life, kid. I owe
- 14:27you for that, Declan said, leaning in so
- 14:30close. Calb could see the scars on his
- 14:33cheeks. But you're in the game now. And
- 14:36you don't leave until I say you leave.
- 14:39The ride to the clubhouse was a
- 14:41masterclass in psychological terror.
- 14:44Wyatt was shoved roughly into the back
- 14:46of a blacked out Chevrolet Suburban,
- 14:48wedged between two men who smelled of
- 14:50stale cigarette smoke, damp leather, and
- 14:53gun oil. Khloe was seated in the front
- 14:56passenger seat, arguing in low, furious
- 14:59whispers with her father, Declan, who
- 15:02was driving. The heavy steel partition
- 15:05separating the front from the back made
- 15:07their words muffled, but the tension
- 15:10radiating through the vehicle was
- 15:12suffocating. Wyatt sat shivering,
- 15:15pressing the blood soaked napkin against
- 15:17his shoulder. The adrenaline that had
- 15:19fueled his heroic dive in the diner was
- 15:21rapidly evaporating, replaced by a deep,
- 15:25throbbing agony that radiated down his
- 15:27arm and up into his neck. He was a
- 15:3019-year-old engineering student. His
- 15:33biggest worry that morning had been
- 15:34passing a thermodynamics quiz. Now he
- 15:38was bleeding in the back of an armored
- 15:40SUV owned by an outlaw motorcycle
- 15:42syndicate, having just survived an
- 15:44assassination attempt by a cartel hit
- 15:47squad. The convoy of heavy motorcycles
- 15:50roared around the SUV, a moving
- 15:53barricade of steel and muscle that
- 15:55ignored red lights and stop signs. They
- 15:58tore through the industrial sprawl of
- 16:00East Oakland, finally slowing as they
- 16:02approached a massive razor wire topped
- 16:04gate surrounding a sprawling salvage
- 16:06yard. The gate groaned open, revealing a
- 16:08fortified compound. [clears throat]
- 16:10Inside, stripped down car chassis and
- 16:14stacks of shipping containers formed an
- 16:16artificial maze leading to a massive
- 16:19corrugated metal warehouse. This was the
- 16:22Oakland Charter's central harbor
- 16:24fortress, hidden in plain sight. Out!"
- 16:28grunted one of the enforcers, hauling
- 16:30Wyatt by his uninjured arm as soon as
- 16:33the vehicle stalked. Wyatt stumbled onto
- 16:36the cracked concrete, his knees buckling
- 16:39slightly. Chloe was instantly at his
- 16:42side, wrapping her arm around his waist
- 16:44to steady him. "I've got him," she
- 16:47snapped to the enforcer, her voice
- 16:49carrying a sharp, commanding edge that
- 16:52Wyatt had never heard in the classroom.
- 16:54She looked up at him, her eyes
- 16:56softening. Hang in there, Wyatt. We're
- 16:59going to get you fixed up. They led him
- 17:02inside the warehouse. The interior was
- 17:04cavernous, part chop shop, part heavily
- 17:07armed dive bar. A massive oak bar
- 17:10dominated one wall, lined with bottles
- 17:13of topshelf whiskey. Heavy leather
- 17:15couches sat on stained concrete floors,
- 17:18and a massive pool table sat under a
- 17:21hanging smoky light fixture. Dozens of
- 17:24men in leather cuts stared at Wyatt with
- 17:27hard, suspicious eyes as he was guided
- 17:29into a brightly lit back room. The back
- 17:32room was a makeshift infirmary.
- 17:35Stainless steel tables, cabinets full of
- 17:38medical supplies, and the harsh glare of
- 17:41surgical lights stood in stark contrast
- 17:44to the gritty exterior of the club. Put
- 17:47him on the table, barked a thin, wiry
- 17:50man with a graying ponytail and a faded
- 17:52military tattoo on his forearm. He wore
- 17:55a blood stained canvas apron over his
- 17:58clothes. The club called him Stitch, a
- 18:01former army field medic who had lost his
- 18:04license decades ago, but remained the
- 18:07angel's most vital asset. Wyatt hissed
- 18:10in pain. and a stitch unceremoniously
- 18:12cut the ruined shirt away from his
- 18:15shoulder with medical shears. "You're
- 18:17lucky, kid," Stitch muttered, swabbing
- 18:20the deep, raw groove with a heavy dose
- 18:22of iodine. Wyatt bit back a scream, his
- 18:25vision whitel lining. "It's a clean
- 18:28graze." Tore the muscle, but missed the
- 18:31bone in the artery. Going to sting like
- 18:34hell, though. Declan stepped into the
- 18:36medical bay, his massive frame filling
- 18:39the doorway. He crossed his arms, his
- 18:42cold blue eyes locking onto Wyatt.
- 18:44"Patch him up, Stitch," Declan ordered
- 18:47before pulling a heavy steel chair to
- 18:50the edge of the examination table. He
- 18:52sat down backwards, resting his chin on
- 18:54his crossed arms. "All right, college
- 18:57boy, let's talk about Carson's grill."
- 19:00"Dad, leave him alone. He's in shock,"
- 19:03Khloe protested from the corner of the
- 19:05room. Quiet, Chloe," Declan said, not
- 19:08raising his voice, but the absolute
- 19:11authority in his tone silenced her
- 19:13instantly. He looked back at Wyatt. The
- 19:16Santos brothers are a Mexican cartel
- 19:19faction trying to muscle into the
- 19:21Oakland port roots. They don't do
- 19:24sloppy. They don't do random drivebys.
- 19:27They are surgical. Wyatt swallowed hard,
- 19:31gripping the edge of the steel table as
- 19:33Ditch prepared a local anesthetic
- 19:35needle. "Okay, what does that have to do
- 19:38with me?" "Uh, it has to do with the
- 19:41fact that Chloe wasn't supposed to be at
- 19:43Carson's grill," Declan said, his voice
- 19:47dropping to a dangerous low rumble. "She
- 19:50changed her schedule. She ditched her
- 19:52security detail. She took an unarmored
- 19:55Uber to a diner on neutral territory to
- 19:57meet you." The only way the Santos
- 20:00hitmen knew she was going to be in that
- 20:02specific booth at that specific time is
- 20:05if someone told them. The implication
- 20:08hung in the air like a live grenade.
- 20:11"You think I set her up?" Wyatt asked
- 20:13incredul, temporarily overpowering his
- 20:16pain. "I jumped in front of a shotgun
- 20:18blast for her. If I was working with the
- 20:21cartel, why would I take a bullet?"
- 20:24That's the only reason you're currently
- 20:26breathing air," Declan admitted coldly.
- 20:29"But it doesn't change the facts." It
- 20:31was a setup. And if it wasn't you,
- 20:34Declan's eyes drifted toward the open
- 20:36doorway, staring out at the dozens of
- 20:39patched members drinking and talking in
- 20:42the main warehouse. "Then I have a rat
- 20:45inside my own house," Declan finished.
- 20:48Stitch began threading a curved surgical
- 20:50needle. "Hold still, kid. This is going
- 20:53to bite. As Stitch began to sew the
- 20:56wound closed, Wyatt squeezed his eyes
- 20:58shut, trying to block out the searing
- 21:01pain. To distract himself, he forced his
- 21:04brain to replay the chaotic events in
- 21:06the diner. He remembered the smell of
- 21:09the fried onions. He remembered Khloe's
- 21:12laugh. He remembered the explosive crash
- 21:15of the front door. He remembered the
- 21:17hitman with the scarred jaw racking the
- 21:20shotgun. Wait, Wyatt thought, his eyes
- 21:24snapping open. The shooter, Wyatt gasped
- 21:27out, his chest heaving as Stitch pulled
- 21:29a suture tight. The one with the
- 21:32shotgun. When he racked the pump,
- 21:35something fell out of his coat pocket.
- 21:38It bounced on the table and rolled off
- 21:40before he started firing. Declan leaned
- 21:43forward, his eyes narrowing. What fell
- 21:46out? I I I picked it up. Wyatt
- 21:49stammered. When we were hiding under the
- 21:52table, it rolled right next to my hand.
- 21:55I shoved it in my pocket without
- 21:57thinking. Declan stood up abruptly. He
- 22:00reached into the pockets of Wyatt's
- 22:02shredded, bloody jeans, which had been
- 22:04tossed onto a nearby chair. He dug his
- 22:08massive hand inside and pulled out a
- 22:10heavy, dull brass coin. The temperature
- 22:13in the room seemed to plummet. Dean
- 22:16stared at the object in his palm. It
- 22:18wasn't a standard coin. It was a heavy
- 22:21custom minted challenge coin. On one
- 22:25side was the club's winged death head
- 22:27logo. On the other was a stamped series
- 22:30of numbers and a Latin motto. Chloe
- 22:34gasped, covering her mouth. "Dad, is
- 22:37that it's a president's token?" Declan
- 22:40whispered, his voice trembling with a
- 22:42terrifying barely contained rage. given
- 22:45only to the top five officers in this
- 22:48charter. A mark of absolute brotherhood.
- 22:51Wyatt watched as the massive biker's
- 22:53knuckles turned white around the brass
- 22:55coin. The hitman dropped it, Wyatt said
- 22:59quietly. It must have been his payment
- 23:01or his proof of the deal. Declan slowly
- 23:05turned the coin over, looking at the
- 23:08stamped number on the back. It was a
- 23:10number four. Number four, Declan said
- 23:13softly. He looked up, his eyes entirely
- 23:16devoid of humanity. They were the eyes
- 23:18of a reaper. Garrett. The transition
- 23:21from a quiet medical room to a war zone
- 23:24happened in the blink of an eye. Declan
- 23:27didn't shout. He didn't run. He walked
- 23:30out of the infirmary with a heavy
- 23:32deliberate strides of an executioner.
- 23:35Wyatt, despite his agonizing shoulder,
- 23:37pushed himself off the medical table. He
- 23:40couldn't stay in the back room. An
- 23:42overwhelming morbid curiosity pulled him
- 23:45to the doorway. Khloe stood beside him,
- 23:48her face pale, watching her father.
- 23:51Garrett was the charter's road captain.
- 23:54He was a lean, muscular man with a
- 23:56shaved head and a long braided goatee,
- 23:59currently laughing and drinking a beer
- 24:01by the pool table. He had been a patched
- 24:04member for 15 years. He was family. The
- 24:07music in the warehouse abruptly cut off.
- 24:10One of the enforcers had unplugged the
- 24:12jukebox at a subtle hand signal from
- 24:15Declan. The sudden silence was
- 24:18deafening. 50 bikers turned their heads,
- 24:21sensing the shift in the atmosphere.
- 24:24Declan stopped 5 ft away from Garrett.
- 24:27He didn't raise his hands. He just
- 24:30opened his palm, revealing the blood
- 24:32smeared brass challenge coin. "You lose
- 24:35something, brother?" Declan asked, his
- 24:38voice echoing in the silent cavernous
- 24:40room. Garris laughter died in his
- 24:43throat, his eyes dropped to the coin,
- 24:46and for a fraction of a second, raw,
- 24:48unfiltered panic flashed across his
- 24:51face. He instinctively patted the left
- 24:53pocket of his leather cut a fatal,
- 24:55unconscious admission of guilt. I uh I
- 24:59don't know what you're talking about,
- 25:01boss. Minds at home, Garrett lied,
- 25:04taking a half step backward. The Santos
- 25:06hitter dropped it at the diner, Declan
- 25:09said, his voice rising, filling the room
- 25:11with terrifying authority. Right before
- 25:14he tried to blow my daughter's head off.
- 25:17You sold out my blood to the cartel,
- 25:19Garrett. For what? Root money? A
- 25:22percentage of the palt? It's a setup,
- 25:25Garrett shouted, panic fully taking
- 25:27over. He looked around wildly at the
- 25:30surrounding brothers, but they were
- 25:32already stepping back, forming a wide,
- 25:35inescapable circle around him. Hands
- 25:38rested casually on the grips of heavy
- 25:40pistols tucked into waistbands. The
- 25:43college kid planted it. He's the rat.
- 25:47The college kid took a bullet for her.
- 25:50Declan roared, the sound vibrating in
- 25:52Wyatt's chest from 30 ft away. You gave
- 25:56them the location. You stripped her
- 25:58security. Uh Garrett realized he was out
- 26:02of place. Desperation makes men foolish.
- 26:06He lunged for the 1911 pistol holstered
- 26:09at his hip. He never even cleared
- 26:11leather. Three deafening gunshots
- 26:14shattered the quiet of the warehouse.
- 26:17Wyatt fledged violently, throwing an arm
- 26:19over Chloe Instinct, taking over once
- 26:22again. When he opened his eyes, Garrett
- 26:25was on the concrete floor. Motionless,
- 26:28Declan stood over him, a smoking point45
- 26:31caliber pistol in his right hand. The
- 26:34room was perfectly still. No one panic.
- 26:37No one yelled. It was business. The
- 26:40ultimate betrayal had been met with the
- 26:42ultimate penalty. Declan holstered his
- 26:45weapon, his face and emotionless mask.
- 26:48He looked down at the body for a long
- 26:50moment, then turned to his sergeant at
- 26:53arms. Clean is up. sweep his house, find
- 26:56the cartel contact on his burner phones,
- 26:59and set a meeting. The Sento's brothers
- 27:02die tonight. Yes, boss, the sergeant
- 27:05replied quietly. Declan walked back
- 27:08toward the infirmary. The sea of
- 27:10leatherclad men parted for him
- 27:12instantly. He stopped in front of Wyatt,
- 27:15who was leaning heavily against the
- 27:17doorframe, his arms securely wrapped in
- 27:20white bandages. For a long minute, the
- 27:23president of the Hell's Angels just
- 27:25stared at the mechanical engineering
- 27:27student. The air was heavy with a smell
- 27:30of gunpowder and blood. "You have
- 27:32courage, Wyatt," Declan finally said,
- 27:35his voice returning to its normal grally
- 27:38register. "Stupid, reckless courage, but
- 27:41courage nonetheless. You kept my
- 27:44daughter breathing today, and you rooted
- 27:46out a cancer in my club that could have
- 27:48destroyed us all." Uh, Wyatt swallowed
- 27:52hard. I just I just wanted to go on a
- 27:55date, sir. A tiny, almost imperceptible
- 27:58smirk tugged at the corner of Declan's
- 28:01scarred mouth. He reached into his
- 28:04leather cut and pulled out a thick,
- 28:06tightly rubber banded stack of $100
- 28:09bills. It had to be at least $20,000.
- 28:13He shoved it into the pocket of Wyatt's
- 28:15uninjured sigh. Pay your tuition, Declan
- 28:19ordered. Get your truck fixed. And if
- 28:23anyone ever gives you trouble in this
- 28:25city, you tell them you have the
- 28:27Reaper's blessing. They'll back off.
- 28:29"Thank you, sir," Wyatt whispered, his
- 28:32legs feeling like jelly, Declan looked
- 28:35at Chloe, his stern expression softening
- 28:37into something resembling paternal
- 28:39relief. "Take him home, Khloe. Use the
- 28:43armored car. And take two men with you."
- 28:46Chloe nodded. She gently took Wyatt's
- 28:48good hand, lacing her fingers through
- 28:51his. Come on, let's get you out of here.
- 28:55The ride back to Wyatt's dorm was
- 28:57drastically different from the ride to
- 28:59the compound. The silence in the back of
- 29:02the SUV wasn't suffocating. It was
- 29:04exhausted, heavy with the weight of
- 29:07survival. The adrenaline had completely
- 29:10faded, leaving Wyatt feeling hollowed
- 29:12out and completely drained. When the
- 29:15armored vehicle finally pulled up to his
- 29:17dilapidated dormatory building, Wyatt
- 29:20slowly opened the heavy door. He stepped
- 29:23out into the cool, quiet Oakland night
- 29:26air. The street lights flickered. It
- 29:29felt like he had been gone for a
- 29:31lifetime, yet it had only been 4 hours
- 29:34since they sat down for coffee. "Watt!"
- 29:37Khloe called out softly. He turned back.
- 29:40She was leaning out of the heavy door of
- 29:42the SUV, her eyes searching his face.
- 29:45"For the record," she said, a small,
- 29:48genuine smile finally breaking through
- 29:50her guarded exterior. "I thought your
- 29:53jokes about the Ford pickup were
- 29:55actually pretty funny." Wyatt managed a
- 29:58weak, exhausted smile. "Does that mean I
- 30:01get a second date?" Khloe's smile
- 30:03widened. "Next time, let's just order
- 30:06takeout." As the black SUV pulled away
- 30:09into the night, heavily guarded by the
- 30:12roar of Vwin engines, Wyatt stood on the
- 30:16sidewalk. He touched the thick stack of
- 30:18cash in his pocket, felt the throbbing
- 30:21pain of the bullet graze on his shoulder
- 30:23and realized his ordinary life was gone
- 30:26forever. And as he watched the
- 30:28taillights disappear, he found he didn't
- 30:31mind at all. Did you expect that
- 30:33explosive twist? The criminal underworld
- 30:36is full of shadows, but sometimes the
- 30:39brightest courage comes from an ordinary
