Four years. It had been four years since Letty's death and the crew was with me in London still. Mia had called again, asking me to help her brother with something. So I was sitting with my crew in the car sized elevator, on our bikes. The door slid open and we revved the engines before pulling into the room. Everyone looked at us and I slid off the bike. I took off my lid and looked around, eyes landing on Brian. He seemed relieved and I sent him a smile, walking over.

"Mia called. Said you needed some help." I told him. "Can't let her down."

He thanked me with a nod before Allison spoke.

"Dom?!"

I turned to her and then followed her eyes. I literally face palmed.

"Fuck." I said.

"You know him?" Brian asked me.

"Allison dated him."

I looked at the team around me.

"Okay. What are we here for, Brian?"

"Hold up." Some tech guy said. "Why do we need her help?"

"We don't. But she'll help either way when she sees these."

I frowned and walked over to stand next to him as a cop came in. The guy who's been after my brother for a while now. But I just shut my mouth as he started talking.

"Our target's Owen Shaw."

Alex snapped his head around.

"Hold up." He said, picking up the file. "Ace?"

"What?"

"You're just gonna let them do this?"

"Alex, shut up. Mia asked me to help, alright?" I snapped at him. "She said I wouldn't regret this, and Brian said I would want to see this. So I'll wait until I figure everything out and then I'll make up my mind."

He put the files down and I waved my hand.

"Continue."

The cop wasn't to sure about it, but he kept talking. I wasn't paying attention until Brian called my name.

"Ace!"

I walked back over and looked at him. He nodded to the table and I looked down. I couldn't keep myself from actually gasping. Ryan walked over and followed my eyes. Then he looked up at me. I took a breath and picked up the pictures of a ghost.

"Are these for real?" I asked.

"Yeah." The cop told me.

I bit my lip and my phone began to go off. I saw Mia's name and answered.

"Mia."

"Did you go?" She asked.

"I'm standing right in front of the cop, with her pictures in my hand."

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you."

"Mia, if you want me to help I will. That's my girl, and I'm not leaving her again."

"So you'll help them?"

I sighed and looked at Letty's pictures.

"I'll help."

She thanked me before she hung up. Alex was going nuts.

"So that's it?" He asked. "You're just gonna help them and forget about Owen?!"

"Owen may be my brother, but that's the girl I fell in love with." I snapped at him. "I've turned my back on so many damn people for you and the crew, why can't I help her?!"

"That's your brother!"

"She's my fucking wife!"

Alex looked at the ground as I finally snapped. I never truly got mad at anyone in my crew, but Letty was the love of my life. I took another breath to calm down my racing heart.

"Alex, I married her. Owen was there with my mother." I told him. "So, I'm sorry, but I'm getting my girl back or I'm gonna die trying."

He nodded. "We're here for you, Ace."

I smiled before I looked at Brian. He sent me a grateful smile and I stood next to him. Everyone was looking at me but I just started talking.

"Owen has alot of connections. I don't all of them since we haven't talked for about a year or so, but I can help you figure out some other shit. And if you don't trust me, I don't give a damn. Letty's my girl and I'm getting her back."

Dominic walked over to stand next to the table, making Allison grow stiff.

"Alright, Ace." He said, looking up at me. "You're in."

I smiled and Brian looked at the cop.

"We'll get you Shaw, you get us Letty, full pardon's all the way around."

"I can't promise you that." He answered.

"Yes you can." Brian said back.

Dom looked at him. "That's the deal, take it or leave it."

There was a pause before he spoke.

"You get me Shaw..... I'll get your pardons." He finally told them. "And the Cards will be added to."

I smiled at our old biker gang name. I still wore the kutte, and I was happy he was adding us into this. I saw Alex and Ryan doing a fist bump and I rolled my eyes. Brian looked at Dom.

"You heard him. But this is different. We aren't dealing with cop, we aren't dealing with drug dealer, this is a whole other ballgame."

A black guy spoke from the end of the table.

"We getting paid, right?"

I was sitting on my bike with the crew as we talked and drank beer. We were actually getting along after I blew up at Alex over Letty. I took another drink before my phone rang from the table. I walked over and answered.

"Yeah."

"Hey."

I dropped the beer that was in my hand; making everyone look at me.

"Uhm....." I took a breath. "Do you need something?"

"Owen said to call this number. I'm Letty."

I sat down. "Hi Letty."

She chuckled. "This is kind of weird, but do you think we could meet somewhere? Owen said I might know you."

"Um, yeah. Yeah, sure."

"Cool. I text you the place."

As she hung up, everyone was standing at the table. Kelsey looked at me.

"Was that her?"

I nodded, unable to form words. She was alive and she had just spoken to me. I took another breath as my phone buzzed and I got up.

"I'll be right back."

They nodded and I drove out of the building.
