Chapter 182 
I watch as she sits at the table, her eyes glancing between us, waiting for one of us to speak. 

“Look, before you agree and decide you need to know things. Me and my brothers run the city, and running it isn’t something for the faint. hearted. I meant it when I said that you need to get used to blood and death.” She looks at me staying quiet. 
“People in the city push, and we have to push back, if we show weakness we would lose power. Depending on the person, what they did we will punish them in a way we see fit. Maybe just be by hurting them a little, could be them losing a finger or two, or it could be hours. of torture until they bleed out.” 
“Blunt heartless cunt.” I look at Calix and shrug. 
“Better blunt heartless cunt, then soft and her freak out and think what the hell did I agree to.” He knows I am right which is why he is allowing this. 
“Why wouldn’t you just kill them and get it over with?” Daisy looks at me waiting. 
“We do, for some. Others go too far, and often that means they have things hidden, torturing them for hours or days means we get the information they want to keep hidden. Look, the fact is it is our city, so you agreeing would mean you have to see that. You won’t be allowed 
to run away. 

I watch as she nods.

“We don’t allow what Dean is doing. Sure people in the city have kids, but most of those kids have their own lives and give a small percentage of their earnings to their parents, none would even try what Dean did if they had they would be dead. The only reason Dean isn’t dead is because the contract would still stand, you would end up with his wife, or someone else and they would make you pay for his death.” 
She knows now. The choice is hers. 
“Look, think it over, let us know.” Calix looks at her, she nods and 
stands then stops, looking between us. 
“I’m fine with it, but the choice is yours. It is your money, I’m off to the room.” I watch as she walks away, turning I look at Calix. I want to say something smart like ‘Let’s go buy ourselves a woman‘, but he might 
actually hit me. 
“We might have an issue.” Marcello makes us look at him. “What if he 
refuses?” 
“Well, he won’t, because if he does, I will make him sign her over for free.” I will enjoy torturing Dean. 
“Leave her a note, let’s go.” Calix stands up. 
“Wait, we’re doing it?” I look towards him shocked. 
“If we move now, yes, otherwise I may change my mind.” He stands. waiting. 
“I’ll catch up on the bike, let me know where.” I watch Calix and Marcello leave. Smiling I write a small note, hearing her walk to me. 
“What’s going on?” She looks at me confused..

“We’re going to see Dean. 
Η 
“I’m coming.” She walks to the door, my hand stopping her. 
“Maybe not the best idea.” I know I told her everything, but today might get messy and she will freak out. 
“I’m coming, you can’t stop me.” 
“Well, little bird, I can, but if you really want to come and don’t care if it gets bloody fine.” Walking to her I walk out of the door, hitting the button we go down in the lift. Getting to the bike I stop, my hand. holding out the helmet for her. 
“You’re scared of a bike?” I laugh slightly at her look. 
“No, not at all!” She moves, placing the helmet on before climbing on the bike behind me, her arms wrapping around my body. I look at my phone and find out where they are. Apparently, he refused to meet them. I laugh and start the bike going to the location they say. I guess we will have an audience. A bigger one than Daisy. 
Soon after I stop outside the bar, Daisy looking at me confused. 
“He wasn’t home and refused to meet. Come on.” Getting off the bike I walk towards the door Calix and Marcello waiting. They look at me shocked. 
“Don’t start, let’s just do it, where is he?” 
“In here, apparently having a day off with his wife,” Marcello explains. Nodding I walk through with my brothers following and then Daisy. The bar falls quiet as everyone watches, I look around spotting Dean, walking over, I push myself in beside his wife and smile at him as my brothers sit with us.

“We’re busy, whatever it is can wait. Can you leave us?” I go to move, but Marcello stops me. The whispers building around us, I thought Dean knew who we were, maybe I was wrong? 
“Don’t beat him yet.” Marcello’s words are whispered in my ear. 
“We don’t wait. We need to talk now, it is your choice if your wife stays or goes. Although I would suggest you let her leave.” I stay looking at Dean. 
“Look, whatever the whore has done I will fix it later!” Dean looks at me annoyed, and this time, I hold Marcello back. 
“She hasn’t done anything. I’m.Calix, you already met my brothers. We need to talk, and I think you would rather your wife was away before things get messy.” Calix speaks in a cool voice, trying to keep us calm. 
“What have you done or said you stupid mutt!” Dean’s words make me flinch, I watch as Calix grips the back of his head and swings it down onto the table, the sound of his nose breaking is loud. His wife screams. next to me. Well, that isn’t fair, I was stopped from doing it before. 
“Don’t call her that!” Calix looks at Dean as he sits up holding his 
nose. 
“Be glad it was him, I would have aimed for the glass.” My words are 
harsh. 
“What the hell?” Dean looks at us. 
“You’re all going to just sit there and watch as these three bully one. person?” His wife looks around confused as everyone turns their eyes away. Turning I look at her. 
“Shall we talk about bullies? I’m sure you and your husband are 
Chocker 102 
worse.” She looks at me shocked, her eyes turning back to Daisy. 
“Enough! You can scream for help, but they won’t. It’s our city, so even if you throw money their way they won’t help you. We wanted to talk, but you refused, I was nice and ignored you telling us to wait the first time. Now is your wife staying or leaving, I won’t ask again!” Calix looks at him, his head nodding. 
“I wouldn’t let her leave.” I look at Calix, and he nods, moving I let her out, and she looks at Dean. 
“Go home, I will be there soon.” She looks at him and then at us. 
“I will take her home.” She grabs Daisy, Marcello moving and stopping her. 
“You won’t touch her if less you want to lose your fingers.” I watch as she nods and rushes out. Why couldn’t things have been simple?
