Saving Blu (Kings Reapers MC #4) - Nicola Jane Page 0,45
he asks brightly.
“No, I don’t want any fuckin’ breakfast. Get these cuffs off me right this second,” I hiss.
“No can do, I’m afraid.” He leaves the room and I scream in frustration. He reappears quickly. “If you’re gonna be silly, Gia, I’ll cover your mouth. Don’t make me do that.”
“Does Vinn know you have me cuffed to your bed? He’ll kill you,” I yell.
“His orders were that I keep you safe and out of sight. If I don’t cuff you, what are the chances of you staying here like a good little girl?”
A tear rolls down my cheek and I swipe it away angrily with my free hand. “I don’t understand,” I whisper.
He leaves the room only to return a minute later with toast and coffee. My stomach growls, but I turn my head away from him as he places them on the bedside table. “Gia, eat something,” he says softly. I shake my head. “You’re only spiting yourself.”
“Get me Blade,” I mutter.
“Blade?” he repeats.
“I don’t want to be here with you. Get me Blade.”
I feel him lower until his hot breath brushes over my ear. “Not a chance, baby. While my ring is on your finger, you’ll have to put up with me,” he whispers and my eyes shoot to my cuffed hand, where the diamond ring is back in place. “And that’s gonna be there for a long time.”
I groan. It’s like torture, only worse, as Blu lays down another playing card. “I win again,” he says with a smirk.
“You’re driving me insane,” I snap. “Put the damn cards away.”
“It’ll get boring if you don’t join in,” he says, dealing the cards again. I swipe my hand across the table and the cards scatter across the floor. It’s only been a few hours and I’m already losing my mind. When I get out of here, I’m gonna hurt Vinn so bad.
“You didn’t tell me everything last night,” I say. “What happened to your mum?”
“The moment’s passed,” says Blu with a sigh. He picks up the cards and puts them back in the box.
“You’re Italian. Where did you live when you were a kid?”
“Are you hungry?” he asks.
“I want to talk,” I snap. “What happened to your mum?”
“She died,” he snaps. “I told you.”
“How? What happened?”
“Fuck, do you ever stop talking?” He stands and heads for the door.
“Get me Blade! Get me any other fucking Kings Reaper who isn’t you!” I yell at his retreating form. Ass.

“I swear to god, you lay a finger on her and I’ll slit your throat,” I warn Blade. He holds his hands up.
“Brother, I have no interest in Gia. You remember it was always her that threw herself at me,” he says and I glare harder. “Hey, she’s tied up, she can’t throw herself at me.”
“Just stay out of the room,” I snap, shrugging on my jacket.
I’ve been summoned to meet with Riggs at the club and I need to check in on Hannah and Molly. By pure bad luck, Riggs sent the one man Gia was asking for.
Riggs is in his office, so I take a seat. “We’re certain Cobra’s club is working for Ricardo. There’re lorries coming over from Italy and dropping at a warehouse here,” he says, throwing a piece of paper with a scribbled address on it. “Ricardo was spotted at the warehouse today and Cobra’s men were unloading it last night.”
“So what’s the plan now?” I ask.
“Vinn wants to wait. I don’t think we should, but he wants more.”
“How much more? We have all we need to storm the place and wipe Cobra off this planet for good. He tried to kill Hannah and Molly,” I remind him. “Not forgetting that he left Raven for dead. This is our fight, not Vinn’s,” I snap.
“Actually,” says Riggs, opening a brown envelope. He pulls out some pictures and throws them over the desk. The lifeless face of Enzo Romano stares back at me. “Word on the street is that Cobra ordered the hit on Enzo. We don’t think for one minute he wanted him out the way. What you said the other day makes sense. If Ricardo gets rid of Vinn too, then he’ll be the next in line to take over, if he was to marry Gia. He’ll be huge in Italy and here with both family names. We think he’ll marry Gia and then put the hit out on Vinn. With him gone, we’ll lose our contacts and then it’ll be too late because Cobra will step in
