Hotter Than Hell Chapter 138: Sofia
The cops destroyed the place. It takes us more than an hour to get everything back in order. Brothers start showing up and Rufus runs his mouth repeatedly. I'm a pretty hot topic right now. I guess my job was to play the nice, quiet Latina while the white man fucked me over. They don't know me well because I'll never be intimidated by those assholes. I haven't done anything and the secrets I hold are between me and God.I was pissed off about Dagger's wrist and that they handcuffed him. He doesn't wear the brace to bed, but I've seen him massaging it since the cuffs came off. He hasn't put the brace back on and the last thing I'll do is whine at him for it.Some of the guys who weren't too fond of keeping me around are now giving me chin lifts. I've concluded that men have an entire chin language that females are ignorant of. I give my own lift back, but it just doesn't work for me like it does for them.The cops even attacked the refrigerator. At least they threw everything back insid
Hotter Than Hell Chapter 139: Dax
It's been three weeks since the warrant. Sofia runs hot and cold and I have no idea what the hell her problem is. She has issues that far exceed my issues and I don't know what to do.She works the club like it's her lot in life, but I can tell she doesn't enjoy cooking and cleaning so much. I told her a few days ago to ease off and she didn't speak to me for the rest of the day. She wraps anger around her like a shield.It's also hard to get any real privacy in this place because someone is always underfoot and the walls are paper thin. After dinner and while the guys are partying, I'm bringing her back to this room until we settle whatever the fuck is going on.She went all out and served lasagna with bread sticks tonight. They melt in my mouth. The guys love her for her cooking alone. She told me a few weeks ago that she worked off and on in different restaurants. She clammed up when I started prying deeper. The woman has more secrets than anyone I've ever known."Come on," I tell h
Hotter Than Hell Chapter 140: Dax
It's been two weeks since Sofia's meltdown. That's what she jokingly calls it. I watch her carefully and I'm glad to see her dark mood that led up to what happened is gone for now. She's happy. The real change has been in her not holding back her feelings when something pisses her off. She's my feisty hot Latina again with strong emotions. The guys can handle it and the rest of us enjoy watching when one of us is singled out and she goes off. She's using her voice and keeping her fists to herself."I've always been a throwaway. I was just waiting for it to happen again," she told me the morning after the meltdown.Those words broke my heart.When she apologized to Bear, he pulled her in for a crushing hug. She baked him a cake that night and told him he didn't need to share. He did of course.The whores are back working the bar and front room. Sofia's message regarding cheating on old ladies made an impact. The attached men keep their hands to themselves. No one wants to face the wrath
Hotter Than Hell Chapter 141: Sofia
I have no idea what's happening, and no one has heard from Dagger. Skull and Charlie showed up for a short time. Skull read the paperwork from the county and offered an explanation to why their permits were turned down."Some asshole, most likely the agent who handled the search warrant, mouthed off to the county board," he said. "We all have criminal records. No way we'll get those permits now."I'm pissed off and have been since Dagger stormed out."Dagger will be back when he's cooled down," Skull told me before leaving. "He needed a ride to get his head on straight."It's so easy for him to say and nearly possible for me to understand. It hurts that Dagger didn't at least take me with him. Fuck, I'm his old lady and he should have me there when things are going good and bad. I refuse to allow my personal doubts to cloud my mind for long, so I spend two hours on the computer reading articles and blogs about ex-felons. The county is idiotic. The recidivism when felons find good jobs
Hotter Than Hell Chapter 142: Dax
We're at the table and I've allowed Sofia here to talk to the officers and present her plan. It could actually work. She filled out the paperwork last night while I was cooling my heels in the wind."You lease me the property and I apply for the permits. I'm Latina-a minority and female. I don't have a criminal record. I can scream from here to next year if they refuse me those permits. Do you really give a fuck if my name is on the paperwork?"She lays the papers out on the table."You think they'll give you the permits just because you're Latina?" AJ asks.I bite my lip and let Sofia handle this."Don't get your white boy panties in a wad. There aren't many perks for having brown skin. This just so happens to be one of them. The government thinks Latinas are good at things besides cooking, cleaning, and fucking."AJ raises his hands in surrender. "Not what I meant, but do you mind if I comment that you're damn good at two of those?""All three," I mutter and receive a glare from Sofi
Hotter Than Hell Chapter 143: Dax
I wasn't worried when Sofia had been gone for three hours. An hour to Globe and an hour back meant she hit the county office, dropped the papers, maybe talked to someone there for a short time, and then filled up her car before hitting the road again. It was after the fourth hour that I began to worry. Now it's after six in the evening and the county offices are closed.I can't sit still, so I'm pacing in the front room of the clubhouse. All but a few of the brothers are here. We were celebrating a second chance to put our plans in motion. Now everyone's mostly quiet. No one says she took off, but I know they're thinking it.I'm a stupid fuck."This is bullshit, that girl hasn't left us high and dry," Red finally grinds out. "You're all assholes for even thinking it."I stop and turn around. "Hell. She should be here."Red stands and faces me. "What about a car accident? Have you thought of that?"I bring my hand over my stubby crop of hair in frustration. "It's not exactly an accident
Hotter Than Hell Chapter 144: Dax
Sofia is in surgery when we arrive at the hospital two hours later. The woman who helped me at the scene is Helen. She's waiting as promised."Sofia's in good hands. They're removing the bullet and have a plastic surgeon available for the damage to her face. Broken jaw and eye socket showed in the x-rays. This guy's good and he'll have her as pretty as she was before."I'm barely following what she says. "You think she'll make it?"She gives me a soft smile. "You said she's a fighter. If she is, she'll pull through.""Did she wake up?""No. They don't think she has head trauma, but they won't count it out until they're sure. The doctor will come out and talk to you when surgery's over. Does she have other family?""No, just the club. We're her family.""Tell the medical staff you're married and they'll give you updates and let you in the room when she's out of recovery. Don't tell anyone I told you that. I'll let the nurses know her husband is here."I want to hug this woman. I'm not a
Hotter Than Hell Chapter 145: Sofia
The pain proves I'm alive. Dagger's voice keeps me that way. He tells me I'm in the hospital. He tells me he loves me. I can't open my eyes and I can't feel my body. It scares me. I focus on my feet and move them a few inches."Relax, princess." He's holding my hand. "You have bandages on your face and covering one eye. Your other is still swollen shut. I've got you. The doctors and nurses are wonderful and they've taken good care of you."I focus some more and squeeze his fingers.I hear another voice, a woman. "We can give you more pain medicine if you need it. Let's try one finger for yes and two for no."Dagger releases my hand and I concentrate. Two for no. My brain finally connects to two fingers and I move them."I think she needs the medicine," Dagger says."We'll give her a little time and then give the injection. She understands what we're asking and that's the main thing. Let her judge her pain."Dagger's rough skin wraps around my hand again. "That nurse is as stubborn as y

Hotter Than Hell Chapter 304: Moon
I stayed with Mr. Loche for two hours. When I came back to the cabin, Father Andrews and Madison were cooking dinner together in the kitchen. She was laughing and he was telling her that anyone can learn to cook, it just takes practice. I don't add my two cents that the meal Mrs. Loche prepared would have been safer. I word it a little more carefully, "Please don't encourage her. Gabriella will throw a fit if Madison moves in on her territory." They stop what they're doing and I receive my first genuine smile from Madison that I've seen in weeks."It's a simple lasagna. Mak can make it when you're here at the cabin. Even I wouldn't do anything to piss off Gabriella." He cringes with great exaggeration and Madison laughs.She looks at him with a huge smile. "You didn't tell me you know Gabriella.""I know her daughter. I've heard all the stories from her and I'm terrified of her mother."I walk to my wife and wrap my arms around her from behind. She leans into me and places her hands on
Hotter Than Hell Chapter 303: Madison
It's three more days before our guest arrives. I'm actually tongue-tide when Moon introduces me to Father Andrews. He's American but lives in Mexico and drove all this way to return a favor he owed my husband. He's younger than a priest has a right to be and he's too damn good looking for his job. I place him in his early thirties. It's strange because he looks oddly familiar even though I'm sure I've never met him.The three of us walk into the living room where Mrs. Loche put out cucumber sandwiches and chocolate chip cookies. Father Andrews's eyes light up. "I haven't eaten since breakfast and these look delicious," he says while filling a plate.Moon doesn't sit with us. "Mr. Loche and I are working on a new garden and clearing some land. I'll be next door if you need me." He leans down and places his lips on mine for a short kiss. It actually embarrasses me because Father Andrews is watching. Moon taps me under the chin in understanding because of the heat traveling up my neck and
Hotter Than Hell Chapter 302: Madison
With revenge motivating me, dealing with what happened was easier. The need for blood became a driving force that allowed me to put my thoughts and feelings on hold. Now my feelings, doubt, and shame overshadow everything. My mind is a dark hole with a smoky mist that Moon stands in to beckon me out. His hand is there. I can almost touch it, but my fingers slide away, a millimeter short, and the darkness covers me once more.Sleep is the worst. Nightmares make me toss and turn throughout the night. Most center around blood on my hands. They drip the red, congealed mess onto everything I touch and when I open my eyes it's still there. Or so the dream goes.I find it strange that I don't dream about what Fernandez did to me. It's his laughter, though, that wakes me night after night. Moon is always there to comfort me during those horrible hours. He pulls me close to his body when I give the slightest gasp. I breathe in his scent and fill my lungs with his strength. Until I fall asleep a
Hotter Than Hell Chapter 301: Moon
Part of my heart-stopping fury recedes when I pull Madison back into my arms. Her entire body is shaking and she's still clutching the knife I handed her. Alex takes it from her hand after I scoop her into my arms and cradle her against my chest. I breathe in the scent of her hair and try to gain more control.This woman is everything. She's the reason I wake up in the morning. Everything I hold dear is wrapped up in her. Cori meets my eyes and she tips her head in acknowledgement. When she turns away, Duke is standing behind her. He pulls her into his arms and walks her toward the front room. He stops when Goose is dragged closer by one of Dax's men and places himself between Cori and Duke. Duke casually pulls his gun and fires, striking him between the eyes. Goose blankly stares at the ceiling by the time the sound of the gunshot fades from the room. Cori spits on Goose's body before Duke leads her forward. Alex gives orders to clean up the bloody mess."Please take me home," Madison
Hotter Than Hell Chapter 300: Madison
She steps forward and Fernandez spins and tries throwing a punch at my head but misses. He moves quickly even with a bullet through the foot and gets between Cori and Sofia's rifle. Melina takes the opportunity to bring her gun down on the back of his head. He stumbles and I kick the tibial pressure point in his good leg. He drops and I kick Celina's gun away from him. She grabs it and aims it at him as he wiggles around like a flopping fish. I hand Melina my gun and slam down into his back with my cuffs primed. I practically pull his arms from their sockets in order to secure his hands behind his back while he's stunned."Help me get him up on the kitchen island and I'll cut off his fucking clothes." We drag him back to the kitchen minus Celina who stays at her post, which is the front door. He struggles but it's not enough for four women on a mission.The sick feeling in my stomach stays and I turn slightly and rub tears from my eyes. Not a minute has gone by that I haven't thought a
Hotter Than Hell Chapter 299: Madison
We park a half mile from the home. Melina and I run up the street, carrying the post driver between us because it's so damn heavy, and check out the property. Like the house he kept me and Cori in, this one is away from other homes and on a nice sized piece of property. The desert foliage on the north side of the area gives us a good vantage point to see the back door. I call Celina."Send Cori north to our location. The front door is on the south side of the house and you'll have about twenty-five yards from the truck to the door. Sofia will be your driver and leave as soon as you're inside. She'll park and meet us. We'll come through the back five minutes after you enter." We covered all of this in the car, but it helps me to go over the plan out loud again. "Give Cori ten minutes to get in place before Sofia drops you off.""Cori just took off. We're set," Celina says before ending the call.After Cori meets us, we stay low and wait for Sofia to text me that Celina is in the house.
Hotter Than Hell Chapter 298: Moon
Alex brings the car to the front. Austin jumps into the back and I take the passenger seat. I told the men to put Gabriella in our safe room until everything settles. She can cuss them out in Spanish, I don't have time. Sirens can be heard in the distance and we need to be completely clear of the house before they hit the street that leads to my private road.I've also notified additional men to meet us at the warehouse. As soon as we have Fernandez's location, we'll be moving out quickly. It suddenly occurs to me that Dax is totally out of the loop, so I dial his cell."You're fucking kidding me," he practically yells when I tell him his wife ran over a man and picked up the women. "I'm on my way." Another call comes in and I look at the display. It's Caleb."Start heading here with reinforcements," I tell Dax quickly. "I'll call as soon as we have a location. It won't be long."The man in the trunk is moaning loudly. There are metal plates over the taillights and nothing he can do to
Hotter Than Hell Chapter 297: Moon
Madison is up to something. The strange feeling persisted while she dressed and then at breakfast. Sending her off to the service without me was nearly impossible. The fact is, I need to get my head out of my ass and take care of Fernandez once and for all. The thought of him taking Madison again is eating me alive.While she's at EE, I can focus on what it takes to keep everyone safe. The Frontera Cartel is out of the picture and now we can focus on one man. I have everyone but our outside security in the conference room. Austin joins us too."How do we bring him out in the open without risking one of our women as bait?" I ask the men. It didn't matter how much Madison complained, there was no way I would give into her plan.I've never reached my current level of frustration as we debate the best scenarios. Alex hasn't said a word since entering the meeting, which surprises me. When I look at him, his eyes are on the door leading to the hallway."What has you worried?" I ask him when
Hotter Than Hell Chapter 296: Madison
The women with Celina give whoops and atta-girl shouts. I can't help smiling. "We'll be another thirty minutes. There's a building supply store not far from you and I need you to pick up two metal fence post drivers." I never worked Cave Creek as a cop, but one of the officers lived there and loved having barbeques, so I'm familiar with the area."We're on it. Meet us in the parking lot."I disconnect the call and decide to join Cori in the front. I wiggle between the seats and then lean back and exhale after I attach my seatbelt. "I'm worried Moon could beat us there."Cori puts her foot on the gas and shoots forward on the freeway. The 51 is one of the lighter trafficked freeways if you're not driving it during rush hour and we're pushing the witching hour. It's the most direct route from central Phoenix to the north valley and we're in luck because it's wide open. If that luck continues, highway patrol won't have units in the vicinity.We make it to the building supply store in twen
