Outlaw Revenge (Back Down Devil MC #1)(42)

“I really hope Gaige knows what the f*ck he’s doing,” Griffin said. “Because if he doesn’t, he’s going to end up getting himself killed… or someone close to him.”

Griffin walked away, punching the wall and mumbling f*ck.

Alone, Emily never felt so out of place in her life. She reached into her pocket and felt Rachel’s necklace. She closed her eyes and tried to picture a way she could have forced Rachel not to go to that fight… but if Rachel hadn’t gone then Gaige would have never entered Emily’s life.





twenty-two.



Gaige pulled up at the gas station and stopped in front of a pump. Nate and Blaine came next and they all shut their motorcycles off. A man came out of the store, lifted his sunglasses, saw the guys from Back Down Devil, and hurried back in. He locked the door and charged through the small store to the back.

“Not very subtle,” Nate said.

“They f*cking know,” Gaige said. “This isn’t going to go away.”

“What’s the plan?”

“Call for a ride,” Gaige said. “We’re taking Vinny alive. Like I said.”

“Fuck, Gaige,” Nate said.

“Alive,” Gaige yelled.

He climbed off his motorcycle and heard Blaine make the call.

“Shay, it’s Blaine. Listen. We need a ride. Oh… okay, bro.” Blaine closed his cell and said, “Company is on the way. Miller knows we’re here.”

“How?” Gaige asked.

“Strokner was just at the clubhouse. You have a deal with him?”

“I have no deals,” Gaige said. “My promise is to settle this score. And we do it right now.”

Gaige walked and Nate and Blaine followed. Gaige eyed the building. There were cameras in each corner. They were watching the guys as they approached. It was a risky move, but Gaige had been around long enough to know what would happen next. Eight Under was try an ambush. Gaige went to the front door and pulled on it.

“What are you doing?” Nate asked. “You saw him lock the f*cking door.”

“I did,” Gaige said.

He turned and ran back to his motorcycle. He started the bike and cut around the gas pumps. Gaige set his sights on the large glass window. Nate and Blaine rushed out of the way as Gaige cut the motorcycle and let the ass end smack into the front window. Gaige dropped the motorcycle as the front window shattered into pieces.

“Oh, shit!” Blaine cried out.

Gaige stood and lifted his motorcycle. He let the motorcycle scream a few times and then he killed the engine.

“My mistake,” Gaige said.

He took out his gun and went into the small store. Nate and Blaine were with him and after two steps, gunfire rang out. The bullets were coming from the back, but nobody could actually see someone shooting.

Gaige, Nate, and Blaine dropped to their knees.

“What the f*ck are you doing?” Nate asked.

“Finishing this,” Gaige said. “Now we sneak out of the front and get Vinny. He’s going to blast out on his crew because he’s f*cked.”

Gaige stood and started to shoot. He got off four shots before the gunfire returned. Nate took his turn doing the same and Blaine too.

“I’m going out first,” Gaige said. “You two stay here and then come out. Unload your clip and reload. Got it?”

“Sure,” Nate said.

“This is f*cking wild,” Blaine said with wide eyes. “I f*cking love it.”

Gaige stood again and saw someone with a gun a few feet away. Two shots and the guy’s head exploded backward. Another Eight Under dead. Good.

Gaige slowly slithered his way to the broken front window. Nate stood and took his shots. When Gaige got outside, he hid next to his motorcycle. He waited and right on cue, one of the garage doors opened. Gaige jumped up and got on his motorcycle. By the time he started it, another motorcycle came rushing out and took off.

It was Vinny. It was the motherf*cker that shot Emily’s friend. A second motorcycle came out. The guy saw Gaige and took a few shots. That was the wrong thing to do.

Gaige was right on their asses a few seconds later, chasing them down. It was a bad decision to go at this alone but logic slipped out of Gaige’s mind a long time ago. He didn’t want to blame Emily and her wicked body, her delicious *, and her perfect kisses, but the fact was, this was Emily’s fault because Gaige had definitely fallen in love with her.

Vinny had skill on his motorcycle, cutting in and out of traffic with ease. The second guy didn’t have the same skill set. He kept looking back at Gaige, probably freaking the f*ck out. Gaige let them have a small lead. He wasn’t going to be able to handle business in the middle of traffic. The chase continued to a desolate road and that’s when Gaige was able to make his move.

He sped up and got along side the second shooter. The guy looked at him with a face full of fear. Gaige cut to the right and the guy almost dropped his motorcycle. That wouldn’t be good enough. No way in f*cking hell.

Gaige took out his gun and pointed it at the guy. Before the * could react, Gaige pulled the trigger. A bullet through the head was the fair punishment. Watching the motorcycle twist, turn, fall, and seeing the guy’s head slide against the pavement in a bloody, brain filled mess was the revenge for Emily and her deceased best friend.
