  1. 0:00Gunfire erupted, shattering the diner
  2. 0:02window before anyone could blink. A
  3. 0:0519-year-old kid instantly threw his body
  4. 0:08over his first date, taking a bullet to
  5. 0:11shield her. He thought he was saving an
  6. 0:13ordinary college girl, completely
  7. 0:16unaware he was bleeding for the daughter
  8. 0:18of a ruthless Hell's Angels boss. Calb
  9. 0:21Wyatt was just a normal guy. He was a
  10. 0:2419-year-old mechanical engineering
  11. 0:26student at San Jose State, spending his
  12. 0:30weekends up to his elbows in Greece at a
  13. 0:32local auto repair shop to pay for his
  14. 0:35tuition. He was quiet, hardworking, and
  15. 0:38deeply ordinary. His biggest source of
  16. 0:41anxiety wasn't gang violence or criminal
  17. 0:44syndicates. It was figuring out how to
  18. 0:47ask out the girl who sat two rows ahead
  19. 0:49of him in his morning chemistry lecture.
  20. 0:52Her name was Khloe Bennett. She was an
  21. 0:54art history major with a pension for
  22. 0:57oversized vintage sweaters and acquired
  23. 1:00almost guarded demeanor. She never
  24. 1:02raised her hand, never lingered after
  25. 1:05class to chat with the other students,
  26. 1:07and always had a black SUV waiting for
  27. 1:10her two blocks away from campus. Calb
  28. 1:13just assumed she came from money. He
  29. 1:16didn't know that the SUV was armored or
  30. 1:18that the driver carried a legally
  31. 1:20registered concealed Glock 19. After 3
  32. 1:24months of stolen glances and awkward
  33. 1:26hallway smiles, Caleb finally worked up
  34. 1:29the nerve. To his absolute shock, Khloe
  35. 1:33said yes. They agreed to meet at
  36. 1:35Carson's Grill, an old school neon lit
  37. 1:38diner tucked away on the border of
  38. 1:40Oakland and San Leandro. It was neutral
  39. 1:42territory, a place known for burnt
  40. 1:44coffee, excellent cherry pie, and an
  41. 1:47unspoken rule that trouble stayed
  42. 1:49outside its doors. It was a Tuesday
  43. 1:51evening. The diner was half empty, the
  44. 1:54air smelling of fried onions and stale
  45. 1:57bleach. Calb sat across from Khloe in a
  46. 2:00faded red vinyl booth near the back
  47. 2:02window. The date was going better than
  48. 2:04he could have ever hoped. Chloe was
  49. 2:07laughing at his terrible jokes about his
  50. 2:09rusted out Ford pickup. And for a
  51. 2:12moment, the guarded wall she always kept
  52. 2:15up seemed to completely vanish. "I don't
  53. 2:18usually do this," Khloe admitted,
  54. 2:20stirring her coffee with a plastic
  55. 2:22spoon. "Her eyes flicked toward the
  56. 2:24front door, a subtle unconscious habit
  57. 2:28hadn't yet learned to recognize. Go out
  58. 2:31with people from class, I mean. My
  59. 2:34family is complicated. Complicated like
  60. 2:37we argue over Thanksgiving dinner.
  61. 2:39Complicated or complicated like my dad
  62. 2:42is a super villain. Complicated. Caleb
  63. 2:45joked, flashing an easy smile. Khloe's
  64. 2:48smile faltered for a fraction of a
  65. 2:50second. Something like that. Before
  66. 2:53Caleb could ask what she meant, the
  67. 2:55heavy glass doors of Carson's grill
  68. 2:58swung open with a violent crash. The
  69. 3:01bell above the door didn't just jingle.
  70. 3:03It ripped off its hinges as two men
  71. 3:06stormed inside. They didn't wear masks,
  72. 3:09which was the first terrifying sign. Men
  73. 3:12who don't hide their faces don't plan on
  74. 3:15leaving witnesses. They wore heavy dark
  75. 3:18coats, their eyes scanning the room with
  76. 3:20cold predatory efficiency. One of them,
  77. 3:24a tall, heavily tattooed man with a
  78. 3:26jagged scar running down his jawline,
  79. 3:29pulled a sword off shotgun from beneath
  80. 3:32his coat. The other drew a modified
  81. 3:34automatic pistol. They didn't look at
  82. 3:36the cash register. They didn't look at
  83. 3:38the terrified waitress behind the
  84. 3:40counter. Their eyes locked directly onto
  85. 3:43the back booth. They locked onto Chloe.
  86. 3:47"There," the scarred man shouted,
  87. 3:49racking the shotgun. Calb didn't think.
  88. 3:52There was no time for higher brain
  89. 3:54function, no time to weigh the odds or
  90. 3:57assess the situation. It was pure primal
  91. 4:00instinct. "Get down!" Caleb roared. He
  92. 4:04lunged across the table, his full body
  93. 4:07weight slamming into Khloe just as the
  94. 4:09first deafening blast erupted. The world
  95. 4:13dissolved into chaos. The thick plate
  96. 4:16glass window beside them exploded
  97. 4:18inward, raining down razor sharp shards.
  98. 4:22The ceramic coffee mugs shattered,
  99. 4:24sending scalding liquid flying. Calb
  100. 4:27pressed Khloe to the sticky lenolium
  101. 4:29floor beneath the table, wrapping his
  102. 4:31arms around her head to shield her.
  103. 4:34Bullets tore through the vinyl booth
  104. 4:36where they had been sitting a
  105. 4:38millisecond prior. The sound was
  106. 4:40agonizing a rapid concussive booming
  107. 4:43that rattled Calb's teeth and filled the
  108. 4:46diner with the acrid choking stench of
  109. 4:49gunpowder and pulverized plaster. Stay
  110. 4:52down. Don't move. Caleb yelled over the
  111. 4:56gunfire, his voice cracking with terror.
  112. 5:00He could feel Chloe trembling beneath
  113. 5:02him, her hands gripping his shirt with
  114. 5:04desperate strength. He felt a sudden
  115. 5:07searing heat rip across his left
  116. 5:09shoulder like a hot iron pressing
  117. 5:12directly into his skin. He gasped, his
  118. 5:15vision swimming for a second, but he
  119. 5:18refused to loosen his grip on her. He
  120. 5:20clamped his eyes shut, waiting for the
  121. 5:22final shot, waiting for the footsteps to
  122. 5:25approach their ruined booth. But then a
  123. 5:28different sound echoed through the
  124. 5:30diner. Bang! Bang! Bang! Sullivan! The
  125. 5:35grizzled old marine who owned Carson's
  126. 5:38Grill had kicked open the kitchen doors
  127. 5:40with a 38 revolver in his hands, firing
  128. 5:43blindly toward the attackers. It was
  129. 5:46enough to break their momentum. The
  130. 5:48hitmen, realizing they had lost the
  131. 5:51element of surprise and not wanting a
  132. 5:53drawn out firefight, backed out the
  133. 5:56shattered front doors, laying down a
  134. 5:58final wave of suppressive fire before
  135. 6:01peeling out in a screeching sedan. Then
  136. 6:05there was silence. Just the hiss of a
  137. 6:07ruptured coffee machine and the
  138. 6:09whimpering of a patron hiding behind the
  139. 6:12counter. "Chloe, Chloe, are you hit?"
  140. 6:15Caleb gasped, slowly rolling off her.
  141. 6:18His ears were ringing so loudly he could
  142. 6:21barely hear his own voice. He pulled
  143. 6:24himself up, wincing as a sharp,
  144. 6:26agonizing pain flared in his left
  145. 6:29shoulder. He reached up and his hand
  146. 6:31came away wet and crimson. A bullet had
  147. 6:34grazed him, a deep, ugly trench torn
  148. 6:37through the flesh of his upper arm.
  149. 6:40Khloe scrambled up from the debris. She
  150. 6:42wasn't crying. That was the first thing
  151. 6:45Caleb noticed. Any normal college girl
  152. 6:48would be in hysterics, screaming, or in
  153. 6:50a state of catatonic shock. But Khloe's
  154. 6:54face was set in a mask of terrifying,
  155. 6:56icy composure. She looked at Calb's
  156. 6:59bleeding arm, then at the bullet holes
  157. 7:02shredding the wall behind them. "I'm
  158. 7:04fine," she breathed out, her hand
  159. 7:07shaking slightly as she brushed glass
  160. 7:09from her sweater. "You're bleeding. It's
  161. 7:12just a graze," Carp said, his adrenaline
  162. 7:15masking the worst of the pain. He
  163. 7:18reached into his pocket with his good
  164. 7:20arm. And calling 911, Khloe's hand shot
  165. 7:24out, ribbing his wrist with surprising
  166. 7:27force.
  167. 7:28No, put the phone away. Calb stared at
  168. 7:31her, utterly confused. Chloe, people
  169. 7:34just tried to murder us with a shotgun.
  170. 7:37We need the police. I need an ambulance.
  171. 7:40If the police get here, this gets a 100
  172. 7:43times worse, Chloe said, her voice
  173. 7:46dropping to an urgent, frantic whisper.
  174. 7:48She reached into her own pocket and
  175. 7:50pulled out a heavy blocky burner phone,
  176. 7:52not the sleek smartphone Caleb saw her
  177. 7:55use in class. She dialed a single digit
  178. 7:58and held it to her ear. It's me, she
  179. 8:01said into the receiver. Carson's grill
  180. 8:04on East 14th. Two hitters. I'm okay, but
  181. 8:08it's public. Hurry. Um, she hung up,
  182. 8:12dropping the phone back into her pocket,
  183. 8:15and turned to Caleb. You need to leave.
  184. 8:18Go out the back door through the
  185. 8:19kitchen. Run down the alley and don't
  186. 8:22stop until you're back at your dorm. If
  187. 8:25anyone asks, you were never here. Are
  188. 8:27you insane? Calb demanded, pressing a
  189. 8:31napkin against his bleeding shoulder.
  190. 8:34And not leaving you here in the middle
  191. 8:36of a war zone. What if they come back?
  192. 8:39Who did you just call? Before Chloe
  193. 8:42could answer, a sound began to build in
  194. 8:45the distance. It didn't sound like
  195. 8:47police sirens. It sounded like thunder
  196. 8:50rolling down the asphalt. The low
  197. 8:53guttural vibration shook the remaining
  198. 8:55glass in the diner's window frames. It
  199. 8:58grew louder, more aggressive until the
  200. 9:00roar of a dozen heavy V twin motorcycle
  201. 9:03engines filled the air, completely
  202. 9:06drowning out the ambient noise of the
  203. 9:08city. Calb watched in stunned silence as
  204. 9:11a pack of massive custombuilt
  205. 9:13motorcycles swarmed the parking lot of
  206. 9:16the diner, blocking off the entrances
  207. 9:18and exits. The riders cut their engines
  208. 9:21in unison, leaving an eerie, heavy
  209. 9:24silence in their wake. They were massive
  210. 9:26men, clad in heavy leather cuts and
  211. 9:29thick denim. On their backs, the
  212. 9:32unmistakable terrifying emblem of the
  213. 9:34Hell's Angels Motorcycle Club was
  214. 9:37stitched in blood red and stark white.
  215. 9:40The bottom rocker on their vests, read
  216. 9:43California. The doors to the diner
  217. 9:46didn't just open, they were shoved
  218. 9:47aside. At the head of the pack was a man
  219. 9:50who seemed to suck all the air out of
  220. 9:53the room. He was easily 6'4, built like
  221. 9:57a freight train with a thick silver
  222. 9:59streaked beard and cold dead blue eyes.
  223. 10:03Tattoos crept up his neck, disappearing
  224. 10:06into his hairline. A leather cut hung
  225. 10:09over his broad shoulders bearing the
  226. 10:11patch of Vice President Oakland. This
  227. 10:15was Declan Reaper Bennett. Dad," Khloe
  228. 10:18said softly. Calb's stomach plummeted.
  229. 10:21The room started to spin, and it wasn't
  230. 10:24from the blood loss. To add, Declan
  231. 10:27Bennett didn't look at the terrified
  232. 10:29diner owner, nor at the bullet holes. He
  233. 10:32marched straight to the back booth, his
  234. 10:34heavy boots crunching over the broken
  235. 10:36glass. He grabbed Khloe by the
  236. 10:38shoulders, his massive, calloused hands
  237. 10:41turning her left and right, checking her
  238. 10:44for bullet holes. When he was satisfied
  239. 10:46she was unheard, his posture relaxed,
  240. 10:48but only by a millimeter. "Your sloppy,
  241. 10:52Chloe," Declan growled, his voice like
  242. 10:55gravel grinding in a cement mixer. "I
  243. 10:58told you to take the armored car. I
  244. 11:01wanted to be normal for one night," she
  245. 11:04shot back, her tone defensive, but laced
  246. 11:07with guilt. Declan's cold eyes finally
  247. 11:10snapped off his daughter and landed on
  248. 11:13Caleb. He took in the kid's pale face,
  249. 11:16the terrified posture, and the blood
  250. 11:18soaked napkin pressed against his
  251. 11:20shoulder. Two of the club's enforcers
  252. 11:23stepped up behind Declan, their hands
  253. 11:26resting entirely too close to the heavy
  254. 11:28bulges under their leather jackets. "Who
  255. 11:30the hell is this?" Declan demanded,
  256. 11:33pointing a massive finger at Carb. His
  257. 11:36name is Calibb, Khloe said quickly,
  258. 11:39stepping between them. "He's from my
  259. 11:41university, Dad." They had a shotgun.
  260. 11:43They had me dead to rights. Caleb
  261. 11:46tackled me. He threw himself over me. He
  262. 11:49took a bullet for me. Declan slowly
  263. 11:52stepped around his daughter towering
  264. 11:54over Caleb. The biker smelled of motor
  265. 11:57oil, stale tobacco, and violence. He
  266. 12:00looked at the shattered booth, tracing
  267. 12:02the trajectory of the bullet holes with
  268. 12:04his eyes, and then looked back at the
  269. 12:06bloody groove torn through Caleb's arm.
  270. 12:10You saved my daughter? Declan asked. It
  271. 12:13wasn't a thank you. It sounded like an
  272. 12:15interrogation. I I just reacted, sir.
  273. 12:19Calb stammered, his heart hammering
  274. 12:21against his ribs. I didn't know who she
  275. 12:24was. I just didn't want her to die.
  276. 12:28Declan stared at him for a long,
  277. 12:30agonizing moment. Did you see their
  278. 12:33faces? Caleb hesitated. His mind flashed
  279. 12:36back to the chaotic seconds before the
  280. 12:38gunfire. Yes, no masks. The guy with a
  281. 12:42shotgun had a jagged scar on his jawline
  282. 12:45and a teardrop tattoo under his left
  283. 12:47eye. One of the enforcers behind Declan,
  284. 12:51hissed through his teeth. The Santos
  285. 12:53brothers, the cartel's new debt
  286. 12:56collectors. They're making a play.
  287. 12:58Declan didn't flinch, but his eyes
  288. 13:01darkened. He looked at Caleb, really
  289. 13:04looking at him. this time, a civilian, a
  290. 13:07witness, a college kid who just got an
  291. 13:10unauthorized look at the men trying to
  292. 13:12spark a cartel war with the Hell's
  293. 13:14Angels. Sir, if it's all the same to
  294. 13:18you, I'm just going to go to the
  295. 13:20hospital, Calip said, taking a cautious
  296. 13:23step backward. I won't say a word to the
  297. 13:25cops. I swear.
  298. 13:28>> [clears throat]
  299. 13:28>> Declan reached out with lightning speed,
  300. 13:30his massive hand clamping down on
  301. 13:32Caleb's uninjured shoulder with the
  302. 13:35force of a vise. Calb gasped in pain.
  303. 13:38"You're not going to a hospital, kid,"
  304. 13:41Declan said, his voice dangerously calm.
  305. 13:44"Hoss ask questions. Hospitals call the
  306. 13:47police." "And right now, you're the only
  307. 13:50person who can positively ID the men who
  308. 13:53just tried to put my little girl in a
  309. 13:55body bag." Dad, no! Chloe shouted, panic
  310. 14:00finally breaking through her icy facade.
  311. 14:03Let him go. He has nothing to do with
  312. 14:05this. Declan ignored her. He looked at
  313. 14:09his sergeant at arms. Patch up his arm
  314. 14:12at the clubhouse. We're taking him with
  315. 14:14us. Wait, what? No. Calb struggled, but
  316. 14:19two massive bikers grabbed him by the
  317. 14:22arms, practically lifting him off the
  318. 14:24floor. You saved her life, kid. I owe
  319. 14:27you for that, Declan said, leaning in so
  320. 14:30close. Calb could see the scars on his
  321. 14:33cheeks. But you're in the game now. And
  322. 14:36you don't leave until I say you leave.
  323. 14:39The ride to the clubhouse was a
  324. 14:41masterclass in psychological terror.
  325. 14:44Wyatt was shoved roughly into the back
  326. 14:46of a blacked out Chevrolet Suburban,
  327. 14:48wedged between two men who smelled of
  328. 14:50stale cigarette smoke, damp leather, and
  329. 14:53gun oil. Khloe was seated in the front
  330. 14:56passenger seat, arguing in low, furious
  331. 14:59whispers with her father, Declan, who
  332. 15:02was driving. The heavy steel partition
  333. 15:05separating the front from the back made
  334. 15:07their words muffled, but the tension
  335. 15:10radiating through the vehicle was
  336. 15:12suffocating. Wyatt sat shivering,
  337. 15:15pressing the blood soaked napkin against
  338. 15:17his shoulder. The adrenaline that had
  339. 15:19fueled his heroic dive in the diner was
  340. 15:21rapidly evaporating, replaced by a deep,
  341. 15:25throbbing agony that radiated down his
  342. 15:27arm and up into his neck. He was a
  343. 15:3019-year-old engineering student. His
  344. 15:33biggest worry that morning had been
  345. 15:34passing a thermodynamics quiz. Now he
  346. 15:38was bleeding in the back of an armored
  347. 15:40SUV owned by an outlaw motorcycle
  348. 15:42syndicate, having just survived an
  349. 15:44assassination attempt by a cartel hit
  350. 15:47squad. The convoy of heavy motorcycles
  351. 15:50roared around the SUV, a moving
  352. 15:53barricade of steel and muscle that
  353. 15:55ignored red lights and stop signs. They
  354. 15:58tore through the industrial sprawl of
  355. 16:00East Oakland, finally slowing as they
  356. 16:02approached a massive razor wire topped
  357. 16:04gate surrounding a sprawling salvage
  358. 16:06yard. The gate groaned open, revealing a
  359. 16:08fortified compound. [clears throat]
  360. 16:10Inside, stripped down car chassis and
  361. 16:14stacks of shipping containers formed an
  362. 16:16artificial maze leading to a massive
  363. 16:19corrugated metal warehouse. This was the
  364. 16:22Oakland Charter's central harbor
  365. 16:24fortress, hidden in plain sight. Out!"
  366. 16:28grunted one of the enforcers, hauling
  367. 16:30Wyatt by his uninjured arm as soon as
  368. 16:33the vehicle stalked. Wyatt stumbled onto
  369. 16:36the cracked concrete, his knees buckling
  370. 16:39slightly. Chloe was instantly at his
  371. 16:42side, wrapping her arm around his waist
  372. 16:44to steady him. "I've got him," she
  373. 16:47snapped to the enforcer, her voice
  374. 16:49carrying a sharp, commanding edge that
  375. 16:52Wyatt had never heard in the classroom.
  376. 16:54She looked up at him, her eyes
  377. 16:56softening. Hang in there, Wyatt. We're
  378. 16:59going to get you fixed up. They led him
  379. 17:02inside the warehouse. The interior was
  380. 17:04cavernous, part chop shop, part heavily
  381. 17:07armed dive bar. A massive oak bar
  382. 17:10dominated one wall, lined with bottles
  383. 17:13of topshelf whiskey. Heavy leather
  384. 17:15couches sat on stained concrete floors,
  385. 17:18and a massive pool table sat under a
  386. 17:21hanging smoky light fixture. Dozens of
  387. 17:24men in leather cuts stared at Wyatt with
  388. 17:27hard, suspicious eyes as he was guided
  389. 17:29into a brightly lit back room. The back
  390. 17:32room was a makeshift infirmary.
  391. 17:35Stainless steel tables, cabinets full of
  392. 17:38medical supplies, and the harsh glare of
  393. 17:41surgical lights stood in stark contrast
  394. 17:44to the gritty exterior of the club. Put
  395. 17:47him on the table, barked a thin, wiry
  396. 17:50man with a graying ponytail and a faded
  397. 17:52military tattoo on his forearm. He wore
  398. 17:55a blood stained canvas apron over his
  399. 17:58clothes. The club called him Stitch, a
  400. 18:01former army field medic who had lost his
  401. 18:04license decades ago, but remained the
  402. 18:07angel's most vital asset. Wyatt hissed
  403. 18:10in pain. and a stitch unceremoniously
  404. 18:12cut the ruined shirt away from his
  405. 18:15shoulder with medical shears. "You're
  406. 18:17lucky, kid," Stitch muttered, swabbing
  407. 18:20the deep, raw groove with a heavy dose
  408. 18:22of iodine. Wyatt bit back a scream, his
  409. 18:25vision whitel lining. "It's a clean
  410. 18:28graze." Tore the muscle, but missed the
  411. 18:31bone in the artery. Going to sting like
  412. 18:34hell, though. Declan stepped into the
  413. 18:36medical bay, his massive frame filling
  414. 18:39the doorway. He crossed his arms, his
  415. 18:42cold blue eyes locking onto Wyatt.
  416. 18:44"Patch him up, Stitch," Declan ordered
  417. 18:47before pulling a heavy steel chair to
  418. 18:50the edge of the examination table. He
  419. 18:52sat down backwards, resting his chin on
  420. 18:54his crossed arms. "All right, college
  421. 18:57boy, let's talk about Carson's grill."
  422. 19:00"Dad, leave him alone. He's in shock,"
  423. 19:03Khloe protested from the corner of the
  424. 19:05room. Quiet, Chloe," Declan said, not
  425. 19:08raising his voice, but the absolute
  426. 19:11authority in his tone silenced her
  427. 19:13instantly. He looked back at Wyatt. The
  428. 19:16Santos brothers are a Mexican cartel
  429. 19:19faction trying to muscle into the
  430. 19:21Oakland port roots. They don't do
  431. 19:24sloppy. They don't do random drivebys.
  432. 19:27They are surgical. Wyatt swallowed hard,
  433. 19:31gripping the edge of the steel table as
  434. 19:33Ditch prepared a local anesthetic
  435. 19:35needle. "Okay, what does that have to do
  436. 19:38with me?" "Uh, it has to do with the
  437. 19:41fact that Chloe wasn't supposed to be at
  438. 19:43Carson's grill," Declan said, his voice
  439. 19:47dropping to a dangerous low rumble. "She
  440. 19:50changed her schedule. She ditched her
  441. 19:52security detail. She took an unarmored
  442. 19:55Uber to a diner on neutral territory to
  443. 19:57meet you." The only way the Santos
  444. 20:00hitmen knew she was going to be in that
  445. 20:02specific booth at that specific time is
  446. 20:05if someone told them. The implication
  447. 20:08hung in the air like a live grenade.
  448. 20:11"You think I set her up?" Wyatt asked
  449. 20:13incredul, temporarily overpowering his
  450. 20:16pain. "I jumped in front of a shotgun
  451. 20:18blast for her. If I was working with the
  452. 20:21cartel, why would I take a bullet?"
  453. 20:24That's the only reason you're currently
  454. 20:26breathing air," Declan admitted coldly.
  455. 20:29"But it doesn't change the facts." It
  456. 20:31was a setup. And if it wasn't you,
  457. 20:34Declan's eyes drifted toward the open
  458. 20:36doorway, staring out at the dozens of
  459. 20:39patched members drinking and talking in
  460. 20:42the main warehouse. "Then I have a rat
  461. 20:45inside my own house," Declan finished.
  462. 20:48Stitch began threading a curved surgical
  463. 20:50needle. "Hold still, kid. This is going
  464. 20:53to bite. As Stitch began to sew the
  465. 20:56wound closed, Wyatt squeezed his eyes
  466. 20:58shut, trying to block out the searing
  467. 21:01pain. To distract himself, he forced his
  468. 21:04brain to replay the chaotic events in
  469. 21:06the diner. He remembered the smell of
  470. 21:09the fried onions. He remembered Khloe's
  471. 21:12laugh. He remembered the explosive crash
  472. 21:15of the front door. He remembered the
  473. 21:17hitman with the scarred jaw racking the
  474. 21:20shotgun. Wait, Wyatt thought, his eyes
  475. 21:24snapping open. The shooter, Wyatt gasped
  476. 21:27out, his chest heaving as Stitch pulled
  477. 21:29a suture tight. The one with the
  478. 21:32shotgun. When he racked the pump,
  479. 21:35something fell out of his coat pocket.
  480. 21:38It bounced on the table and rolled off
  481. 21:40before he started firing. Declan leaned
  482. 21:43forward, his eyes narrowing. What fell
  483. 21:46out? I I I picked it up. Wyatt
  484. 21:49stammered. When we were hiding under the
  485. 21:52table, it rolled right next to my hand.
  486. 21:55I shoved it in my pocket without
  487. 21:57thinking. Declan stood up abruptly. He
  488. 22:00reached into the pockets of Wyatt's
  489. 22:02shredded, bloody jeans, which had been
  490. 22:04tossed onto a nearby chair. He dug his
  491. 22:08massive hand inside and pulled out a
  492. 22:10heavy, dull brass coin. The temperature
  493. 22:13in the room seemed to plummet. Dean
  494. 22:16stared at the object in his palm. It
  495. 22:18wasn't a standard coin. It was a heavy
  496. 22:21custom minted challenge coin. On one
  497. 22:25side was the club's winged death head
  498. 22:27logo. On the other was a stamped series
  499. 22:30of numbers and a Latin motto. Chloe
  500. 22:34gasped, covering her mouth. "Dad, is
  501. 22:37that it's a president's token?" Declan
  502. 22:40whispered, his voice trembling with a
  503. 22:42terrifying barely contained rage. given
  504. 22:45only to the top five officers in this
  505. 22:48charter. A mark of absolute brotherhood.
  506. 22:51Wyatt watched as the massive biker's
  507. 22:53knuckles turned white around the brass
  508. 22:55coin. The hitman dropped it, Wyatt said
  509. 22:59quietly. It must have been his payment
  510. 23:01or his proof of the deal. Declan slowly
  511. 23:05turned the coin over, looking at the
  512. 23:08stamped number on the back. It was a
  513. 23:10number four. Number four, Declan said
  514. 23:13softly. He looked up, his eyes entirely
  515. 23:16devoid of humanity. They were the eyes
  516. 23:18of a reaper. Garrett. The transition
  517. 23:21from a quiet medical room to a war zone
  518. 23:24happened in the blink of an eye. Declan
  519. 23:27didn't shout. He didn't run. He walked
  520. 23:30out of the infirmary with a heavy
  521. 23:32deliberate strides of an executioner.
  522. 23:35Wyatt, despite his agonizing shoulder,
  523. 23:37pushed himself off the medical table. He
  524. 23:40couldn't stay in the back room. An
  525. 23:42overwhelming morbid curiosity pulled him
  526. 23:45to the doorway. Khloe stood beside him,
  527. 23:48her face pale, watching her father.
  528. 23:51Garrett was the charter's road captain.
  529. 23:54He was a lean, muscular man with a
  530. 23:56shaved head and a long braided goatee,
  531. 23:59currently laughing and drinking a beer
  532. 24:01by the pool table. He had been a patched
  533. 24:04member for 15 years. He was family. The
  534. 24:07music in the warehouse abruptly cut off.
  535. 24:10One of the enforcers had unplugged the
  536. 24:12jukebox at a subtle hand signal from
  537. 24:15Declan. The sudden silence was
  538. 24:18deafening. 50 bikers turned their heads,
  539. 24:21sensing the shift in the atmosphere.
  540. 24:24Declan stopped 5 ft away from Garrett.
  541. 24:27He didn't raise his hands. He just
  542. 24:30opened his palm, revealing the blood
  543. 24:32smeared brass challenge coin. "You lose
  544. 24:35something, brother?" Declan asked, his
  545. 24:38voice echoing in the silent cavernous
  546. 24:40room. Garris laughter died in his
  547. 24:43throat, his eyes dropped to the coin,
  548. 24:46and for a fraction of a second, raw,
  549. 24:48unfiltered panic flashed across his
  550. 24:51face. He instinctively patted the left
  551. 24:53pocket of his leather cut a fatal,
  552. 24:55unconscious admission of guilt. I uh I
  553. 24:59don't know what you're talking about,
  554. 25:01boss. Minds at home, Garrett lied,
  555. 25:04taking a half step backward. The Santos
  556. 25:06hitter dropped it at the diner, Declan
  557. 25:09said, his voice rising, filling the room
  558. 25:11with terrifying authority. Right before
  559. 25:14he tried to blow my daughter's head off.
  560. 25:17You sold out my blood to the cartel,
  561. 25:19Garrett. For what? Root money? A
  562. 25:22percentage of the palt? It's a setup,
  563. 25:25Garrett shouted, panic fully taking
  564. 25:27over. He looked around wildly at the
  565. 25:30surrounding brothers, but they were
  566. 25:32already stepping back, forming a wide,
  567. 25:35inescapable circle around him. Hands
  568. 25:38rested casually on the grips of heavy
  569. 25:40pistols tucked into waistbands. The
  570. 25:43college kid planted it. He's the rat.
  571. 25:47The college kid took a bullet for her.
  572. 25:50Declan roared, the sound vibrating in
  573. 25:52Wyatt's chest from 30 ft away. You gave
  574. 25:56them the location. You stripped her
  575. 25:58security. Uh Garrett realized he was out
  576. 26:02of place. Desperation makes men foolish.
  577. 26:06He lunged for the 1911 pistol holstered
  578. 26:09at his hip. He never even cleared
  579. 26:11leather. Three deafening gunshots
  580. 26:14shattered the quiet of the warehouse.
  581. 26:17Wyatt fledged violently, throwing an arm
  582. 26:19over Chloe Instinct, taking over once
  583. 26:22again. When he opened his eyes, Garrett
  584. 26:25was on the concrete floor. Motionless,
  585. 26:28Declan stood over him, a smoking point45
  586. 26:31caliber pistol in his right hand. The
  587. 26:34room was perfectly still. No one panic.
  588. 26:37No one yelled. It was business. The
  589. 26:40ultimate betrayal had been met with the
  590. 26:42ultimate penalty. Declan holstered his
  591. 26:45weapon, his face and emotionless mask.
  592. 26:48He looked down at the body for a long
  593. 26:50moment, then turned to his sergeant at
  594. 26:53arms. Clean is up. sweep his house, find
  595. 26:56the cartel contact on his burner phones,
  596. 26:59and set a meeting. The Sento's brothers
  597. 27:02die tonight. Yes, boss, the sergeant
  598. 27:05replied quietly. Declan walked back
  599. 27:08toward the infirmary. The sea of
  600. 27:10leatherclad men parted for him
  601. 27:12instantly. He stopped in front of Wyatt,
  602. 27:15who was leaning heavily against the
  603. 27:17doorframe, his arms securely wrapped in
  604. 27:20white bandages. For a long minute, the
  605. 27:23president of the Hell's Angels just
  606. 27:25stared at the mechanical engineering
  607. 27:27student. The air was heavy with a smell
  608. 27:30of gunpowder and blood. "You have
  609. 27:32courage, Wyatt," Declan finally said,
  610. 27:35his voice returning to its normal grally
  611. 27:38register. "Stupid, reckless courage, but
  612. 27:41courage nonetheless. You kept my
  613. 27:44daughter breathing today, and you rooted
  614. 27:46out a cancer in my club that could have
  615. 27:48destroyed us all." Uh, Wyatt swallowed
  616. 27:52hard. I just I just wanted to go on a
  617. 27:55date, sir. A tiny, almost imperceptible
  618. 27:58smirk tugged at the corner of Declan's
  619. 28:01scarred mouth. He reached into his
  620. 28:04leather cut and pulled out a thick,
  621. 28:06tightly rubber banded stack of $100
  622. 28:09bills. It had to be at least $20,000.
  623. 28:13He shoved it into the pocket of Wyatt's
  624. 28:15uninjured sigh. Pay your tuition, Declan
  625. 28:19ordered. Get your truck fixed. And if
  626. 28:23anyone ever gives you trouble in this
  627. 28:25city, you tell them you have the
  628. 28:27Reaper's blessing. They'll back off.
  629. 28:29"Thank you, sir," Wyatt whispered, his
  630. 28:32legs feeling like jelly, Declan looked
  631. 28:35at Chloe, his stern expression softening
  632. 28:37into something resembling paternal
  633. 28:39relief. "Take him home, Khloe. Use the
  634. 28:43armored car. And take two men with you."
  635. 28:46Chloe nodded. She gently took Wyatt's
  636. 28:48good hand, lacing her fingers through
  637. 28:51his. Come on, let's get you out of here.
  638. 28:55The ride back to Wyatt's dorm was
  639. 28:57drastically different from the ride to
  640. 28:59the compound. The silence in the back of
  641. 29:02the SUV wasn't suffocating. It was
  642. 29:04exhausted, heavy with the weight of
  643. 29:07survival. The adrenaline had completely
  644. 29:10faded, leaving Wyatt feeling hollowed
  645. 29:12out and completely drained. When the
  646. 29:15armored vehicle finally pulled up to his
  647. 29:17dilapidated dormatory building, Wyatt
  648. 29:20slowly opened the heavy door. He stepped
  649. 29:23out into the cool, quiet Oakland night
  650. 29:26air. The street lights flickered. It
  651. 29:29felt like he had been gone for a
  652. 29:31lifetime, yet it had only been 4 hours
  653. 29:34since they sat down for coffee. "Watt!"
  654. 29:37Khloe called out softly. He turned back.
  655. 29:40She was leaning out of the heavy door of
  656. 29:42the SUV, her eyes searching his face.
  657. 29:45"For the record," she said, a small,
  658. 29:48genuine smile finally breaking through
  659. 29:50her guarded exterior. "I thought your
  660. 29:53jokes about the Ford pickup were
  661. 29:55actually pretty funny." Wyatt managed a
  662. 29:58weak, exhausted smile. "Does that mean I
  663. 30:01get a second date?" Khloe's smile
  664. 30:03widened. "Next time, let's just order
  665. 30:06takeout." As the black SUV pulled away
  666. 30:09into the night, heavily guarded by the
  667. 30:12roar of Vwin engines, Wyatt stood on the
  668. 30:16sidewalk. He touched the thick stack of
  669. 30:18cash in his pocket, felt the throbbing
  670. 30:21pain of the bullet graze on his shoulder
  671. 30:23and realized his ordinary life was gone
  672. 30:26forever. And as he watched the
  673. 30:28taillights disappear, he found he didn't
  674. 30:31mind at all. Did you expect that
  675. 30:33explosive twist? The criminal underworld
  676. 30:36is full of shadows, but sometimes the
