I'll Be Your Soldier (Rhea Ripley X Dominik Mysterio) Book 09

The Road to Hell

Dominik sank in his seat, eyes closing and arms hanging limp at his sides.

Inhale 1.....2.....3 exhale 1.....2.....3. Inhale 1.....2.....3 exhale 1.....2.....3. Inhale 1.....2.....3 exhale 1.....2.....3. Inhale 1.....2.....3 exhale 1.....2.....3.

 

Suddenly the door opened and the RV shook.

That better be either Mami or Truth!

 

Dom's eyes shot open as he looked over his shoulder. Dark eyes met their match causing Dominik to tense and grit his teeth.  Heart racing and fists gripping the arms of his seat, he forced back his anger. Breaking eye contact, Dominik stared into the void before him.

“Some friends ya got out there.” Ray huffed before flopping down on the couch.

“At least they were there for us when we needed them and they believe in me. But that’s nothing new when it comes to you and mom.” The venom dripped from his tightly pressed lips. Teeth unable to catch the slick syllables.

Before Rey could Retort R-truth piped in, “Yeah man we called yall like fifty-leven times. Now I know Aalyah is pregnant and gotta get married soon but that’s really nothing in comparison. Besides I know Dominik don’t call you that often, you complained about it all the time a few weeks ago. So all them calls should have been a red flag.”

“I know, I’m sorry, but he could have told me when we saw each other.” Rey argued.

“Cause that’s always gone so well before; Oh you’re always tryin ta take attention from your sister. This can wait we gotta help Aalyah. Trust me He Can’t Hack It!”

 

Truth looked from Dominik to Rey heart sinking.

“Please tell me you didn’t say that ta the boy." The man begged, crestfallen eyes boring into Rey.

Angie placed her hand on her infuriated husband.

“I don’t think now is the time to drudge up the past.” She stated.

Suddenly the door burst open and slammed shut.

All eyes fell on Buddy, who was shaking with anger. The tension in the air gave him pause, blue eyes falling on his fiancé utterly lost.

“WAAAAAAH-WA-WA WAAAAAAH-WA-WA!”

Dominik stood chest heaving as solid black eyes bore into his future brother in law.

“WHAT THE FUCK ARE YALL DOING ON MY FUCKIN BUS?! I DIDN’T ASK YOU TO COME HERE! IT'S NOT LIKE ANY OF YOU HAVE EVER SHOWED UP FOR ME BEFORE! I DIDN’T NEED YOU THEN! I DON’T NEED YOU NOW! YOU CANT USE MY HOWS FOR YOUR FUCKING SHOT GUN WEDDING! AND MY FAMILY WILL NEVER BE THERE!” He bellowed.

With each declaration he got closer and closer to Buddy before shoving the man so hard he stumbled back. Rey and Truth raced forward to stop Dominik from doing something he wouldn’t regret.

Unlike the rest of his family, Dominik never truly forgave Buddy or Seth for what they did to him. Yes he was cordial but deep down he hated the man, who never really even apologized to him. Or let him get his lick back for those Kendo shots.

Fist balling up he cocked his arm back to hit the ginger, only for it to be grabbed by Rey. Turning Dominik shoved him back on the couch, causing Aalyah and Angie to jump up and get between them.

“WAAAAAAH-WA-WA WAAAAAAH-WA-WA!”

The cries of his daughter recaptured Dominik's attention.
