*Beau’s POV*

We met in the back of an alleyway between a laundry mat and a pizza shop. When I got out of the car I counted 3 guys short, I ignored it and went to where Lyon was. He looked nervous, like he was hiding something.

“Hey Beau, I, uhh, need your help with something..” He said and walked a bit closer to me.

“What do you need help with Lyon?” I asked calmly.

“Listen, now I know you have her and Kings put-“

“What do you know about her?” I asked cutting him off swiftly.

“This is the girl Brooks, this is the girl you have been obsessing about isn’t it? Ever since you ki-“ I put my hand up to stop him. Hearing what I did just makes me sick.

“Yeah and?” I ask.

“Well Kings wants her and there is a, well, reward for her.” He says coming a bit closer.

I felt my stomach drop, I looked over to Luke and he was already headed to the car.

“Well that means I need to go protect her doesn’t it?” I say backing away, “It has been nice bu-“

“No, you aren’t going anywhere Brooks. Not whilst she is still there.” He said with a devilish smile.

Then it hit me, his men are going to get her. I ran up to Lyon and pushed him up against the wall, “Where is she!” I bark in his face.

“Safe, for now.” He says.

I punched him in the face and waited till he got up and punched him again. No one even thinks about touching me because they know my reputation.

“You better think twice about that Lyon.” I say between my teeth.

Just then I hear a car come to a halt behind me, I turn around to see Andrea being escorted out of the car. She looked pissed, like she was ready to rip someones head off.

“Andrea..” I say and start walking over to her. She sees me but then turns her head away from me. I felt my heart drop. I promised to protect her yet I let her down, again.

“Let her go.” I say fiercely.

“No Beau, you see Kings is meeting us here and you are going to watch her go off with him, watch your life walk away.” He avowed.

“I am not going anywhere with him.” Andrea implied.

“Yes you are bitch, you don’t have a choice.” He acknowledges.

“Asshole.” She says.

I see him nod his head at one of his guys then I hear *SLAP* and she is down.

I run over to her and help her up, “I am so sorry.” I say into her ear.

“Don’t let him take me Beau.” She mumbled

I felt my stomach drop this time, she needed me and this time I will be here for her. I look into her eyes and see fear, she looked like she was about to cry. I stand a bit taller and show who I really am.

I put my arm around her shoulder and turn to Lyon, “She is coming with me, now either you cooperate and I only have one of your kneecaps shot off or I will just have Skip shoot you dead now and we leave.” I say as Luke and James take care of the guys behind us while I have the rest of my crew take care of the rest.

I feel Andrea curl into as to look away from the scene in front of her. Skip goes up to Lyon and makes him get on his knees. He holds the gun to his head, “I did nothing to you and this is what you do to me, I helped you, I saved you, and now this is how you repay me? No, this is not how it works.” I turn around to walk back to the car.

“You know you are going to have to tell her eventually.” He says nervously.

“Tell me what?” I hear her ask.

“How you know her, you are going to have to tell her the truth at some point Brooks, you can’t ignore it forever.” He says.

I looked down at her and curiosity is written all over her face. I gently kiss her as we hear the *BANG* I walk her to the car and we head back to the house before Kings got there.
