Chapter Eight
Wrath
Dragging Flame into my office with me, I slam the door behind us, turning the lock. Fuck, I need to calm down. My whole body"s vibrating with rage. That bunny doesn"t realize how lucky she is to be alive right now. I wanted to kill her for touching him. No one is allowed to touch him but me. He"s fucking mine! I close my eyes, taking deep breaths while leaning against the door, attempting to calm myself down.
Suddenly, I feel Flame resting his forehead against mine. I open my eyes and look into his eyes, and all I see shining back at me is love. He may not have said the words, but his eyes are showing me exactly how he feels. I need that right now. He"s always had a way of grounding me in a way nobody else ever could.
"I"m okay,"I whisper.
He just smiles at me before placing a peck on my lips before backing away to sit in front of my desk.
Once he's sitting down, he pulls his phone out and dials someone. I just stand and watch him, having no idea what he"s doing right now.
"Hey man. We need you back at The Clubhouse ASAP. Wrath nearly totally lost it because of a bunny and has kicked her out; she"s got an hour to get out. He"s still vibrating with rage, so we"re in the office while he calms down. Want to come and make sure she"s gone? Whiskey was at the bar. He can fill you in on who the hell she is because I don"t know her name."
He stops speaking, obviously listening to whoever"s on the other end of the call.
"See you soon."He says before ending the call.
Looking at me, he tells me, "Shadow"s on his way. He"ll deal with making sure she's gone."
"Thank you, babe,"I reply as I walk over and sit next to him.
"I"m sorry I lost it out there, but fuck me, she would not listen."I start to apologize, but he interrupts me.
"No, don"t you dare fucking apologize. Thank you for standing up for me and our relationship. I"m glad you were there; I didn"t know what the fuck to do once she grabbed my dick. I couldn't fucking move."His voice sounds so sincere.
We lapse into silence, just enjoying each other"s company. I can"t help but think about what he said about our relationship, realizing that I just outed us to everyone. I didn"t hear any bad reactions, so maybe I have nothing to worry about and they"ll be supportive of the change between us. My worry about them not accepting my sexuality because I"m their President seems like it wasn"t warranted, which just makes me pissed at myself because of how long I could"ve been with Flame.
I have no idea how much time passes before there"s a bang on the office door.
"Who is it?"I shout.
"Tech,"
Shooting up from my seat, I go and unlock the door before quickly inviting him into my office.
"What"ve you found out?"I ask as I walk back over to my desk and perch on the edge, close to where Flame"s sitting.
I need him close to me still; I can"t help it.
"I don"t know who the woman is behind it all, but I do know she"s got a vendetta. I found a chat room on the dark web, and they"re discussing it. Seems to be whoever she is; she feels that the three of you, in particular, did something that wronged her in the past. She wants to destroy the whole of Devil"s Inferno if she can, but she"ll be happy with just taking you three out. That"s her main goal. We definitely have a mole; he's part of the chat. I just don't know who it is yet, but I"m going to keep digging. I will find out who it is; they can"t fucking hide from me forever; they"ll slip up eventually; they always do."Tech explains while standing by the door.
Well, fuck, who the fuck is this bitch? Who the fuck could be the mole?
I just shake my head and say, "Thanks for the update, Tech. Keep trying. If anyone can find anything about this all online, it's you." He turns and leaves, and I just look at Flame.
He doesn"t look happy about what we just learned, and neither am I. We don"t need this shit.
"Any ideas?"I ask him.
"Fuck babe, it could be anyone from our pasts. It could be a family member of someone from our past. The possibilities are endless. We"ve made a lot of people unhappy throughout the years. No clue who could be the mole either; no one stands out above the rest that I can think of right now. Yes, there are people we don"t trust as much as others, but that doesn"t make them the mole. I'll start keeping my eyes and ears peeled to see what I can find out."He answers his eyes, showing how fucking annoyed he is.
"Yeah, I know it could be anyone. Fuck, this sucks. I'll get the other Officers to do the same. At least I know it"s not going to be any of them who are the mole. The fucking mole"s going to slip up at some point, and we'll get them. Then they"ll fucking regret betraying Devil"s Inferno."
I want this mole found and dealt with sooner rather than later. Whoever they are should"ve known better than to betray us; it"s going to cost them their lives, that"s for sure. I"m going to make a fucking example out of them.
"Anyway, what are your plans now?"I ask, changing the subject because if I keep talking about all this, I'm going to end up tearing my office apart.
"I"m going to go to The Gym and check how things are today. You know I like checking out to see if there"s anyone new for me to fight."He says, and I can"t help but smile, he does love looking for a new challenge. As far as I know, he hasn"t found anyone who can beat him yet.
"Have fun; don"t beat anyone too badly; it"s bad for business,"I say with a small laugh.
He leans down, kissing me quickly before leaving.
Yeah, I"m definitely enjoying this; being able to kiss Flame whenever I want—yeah, there is no downside to that at all.
Once he"s gone, I look at the cameras on my computer to check that everything"s okay around The Compound. You can never be too safe, and knowing there"s a mole, I want to see if anyone is acting suspicious. As I"m looking through them, nothing jumps out as obvious, and I can"t help but be disappointed. Couldn"t the mole just be doing something that gives them away so I can get them fucking dealt with? Is that too much to ask for? It looks like it.
Whoever this mole is, I"m going to make them fucking regret betraying Devil"s Inferno. We may be legitimate, but that doesn"t mean we don"t get our hands dirty when we need to, and this is one of those times we"ll all happily do something illegal. We don"t take traitors lightly around here; we"re a brotherhood, a family, and we don"t take betrayal well. We haven"t had a traitor since my Dad was President, and fuck if they didn"t make an example out of him. I plan on doing the same with whoever my mole is.
