The song for this chapter is, "Really? Yeah!" By KYLE :)

RECAP: Last chapter was the first race in the October Rally Races. Finley, Harry, and the rest of the gang are traveling all over the world for races. They have just discovered that Harvey Cain, Harry's old boss and Leo's old partner who was thought to be dead, but is back with a taste for revenge, has been able to track them, and now they are using that to their advantage. They also realized that Allister McCain is Harvey's son, and plan to kill him. After the race, they were invited to Ricky Spence, an arm's dealer who works with Harvey Cain's after party. They wanted to be invited, because they know Harvey is monitoring all of their devices and trying to catch them with their guard down. Little does he know, that being invited to that party was their goal all along, as it is the first phase in them getting back at Harvey. 

If you still need a refresher, please go back and read the last 1-3 chapters! I know it has been a while and I apologize. I have been going through some of the worst anxiety of my life the past few months, and I desperately needed to step away from writing because it got to the point where I didn't want to write anymore and I hated that feeling. I know it has been a while, and it makes me anxious even coming back because I worry people will hate my work, or say that it wasn't worth the wait. This book means a lot to me, and I intend on finishing it. I will never post a chapter just to post it. I refuse to give you anything other than what I consider to be my best. Please please please, if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all. I am going to do my best to not read the comments on this chapter, as it can add to my anxiety. I missed this book so much, and I am going to do my best to update more regularly. Thank you to those of you who have been so supportive and encouraging to me during this time in my life, it means the world. I love you all so dearly.

PS: THE SMUT WILL BE IN THE NEXT CHAPTER SO PLEASE DO NOT COMPLAIN ABOUT IT NOT BEING IN THIS CHAPTER AS I AM ALREADY MEGA ANXIOUS TO POST THIS ONE!

   "Baby, come here, we need to put on our costumes," Harry shouted from the entryway of the bathroom, and I nearly inhaled the hairs of the makeup brush Caspian was using to touch up my makeup as my head sharply turned towards him, confusion evident on my face.

   "Are...are we not already in costume?" I laughed, gesturing down to the elaborate Harley Quinn outfit that still donned my body, debating if perhaps he had already started drinking before we even got to the party.

   He had a smirk etched onto his lips, and his hands folded behind his back, hiding something from me with a mischievous glint in his eyes.

   "These costumes are great and all, but I was thinking that for the party, we could do something a little less cliche," he replied with a shrug, unraveling his hands from behind his back and revealing the iconic black and gold Harley Quinn and Joker costumes, my mouth dropping in excitement and shock as my eyes scanned over the beautiful fabrics. 

   "You're joking," I replied with a laugh, feeling a wave of giddiness crash over me, apologizing quietly to Caspian as my face jerked around in his hands which were struggling to hold me steady.

   "No, I'm Joker," Harry winked back with a sarcastic and stressed laugh, making both Caspian and I groan and roll our eyes at his cheesy reply to my comment.
