FRASER

"Where the fuck have you been!?" 

Lethal barks the moment I ripped open his office door. There's not enough time to talk or give explanations. My vision swirls. Her screams still in my head, I slum against the wall. I don't know why I am here. I should have been out of the clubhouse by now. Gather the Serpents for help. But all I can do is look past Lethal and his harsh gaze. 

No, no, no!

Help!

What made her scream like that?

"Reaper-"

"S-She's...I don't know where she is." 

He flinches. A fact that makes me speak again. This time my voice comes out just as angry I feel inside. "Olive's gone. She was asking for fucking help. I wasn't there-"

"I know." He cuts me off with a snarl. "I fucking know, Reaper."

He knows? "What!? How?"

"You would know if you just fucking pick up your phone! I was calling non-stop. The FBI called us to let me know what happened. The fucker had someone outside. They did a classic hit and run. He escaped." My lips part to ask about Olive, where the fuck is she when he adds in a snarl through the anger is towards the fucker. "She's alive. Two agents are dead though. No one even fucking knows where those two are either."

She has done it again. 

Risked her life when I clearly said that I was all in. I try to ignore every word coming from Lethal's mouth but it doesn't make the sting hurt any less. 

She's gone.

With that fucker. Danmmit!

"W-Where was the car found?" I sound so disoriented. My head can't keep up with my mind. I'm already feeling the need to run. To drag the fucker myself to skin him alive. Slowly. Painfully. 

"Near the old railroad." He says. "Two of the agent's car has been burned to the ground."

Fuck! Lethal doesn't react when I stand up. Staring at him for a few seconds, I can't ignore the burning question on my tounge. "Did you knew?"

"Know what?" He frowns.

"About her leaving." I shrug, my voice rough as hell. "She decided to leave even before knowing my-"

He shakes his head, his frown deepens farther. "Fuck no. I gave her some idea of what you feel. She said she needs time to think...about you and the Serpents. But fuck, she was coming back."

My breath stops.

She was coming back?

"W-What!?"

The surprise is so laughable. My finger twitches. Her taste still a burns my tongue. Here I thought she actually bolted without telling me when she was coming back. For me. For the Serpents.

"I need to go." 

I'm already lurching towards the door when Lethal stops me. His hands are steel against me as he grunts. "Fuck, Reaper! No way in hell you are going alone. We are going with you. All of us."

I don't know where to find her. I'm dragging them in my fucking mess. Putting them in danger willingly.

With a sigh, my focus settles on Lethal. "You have Vixen to worry about, Prez. This-This is something I have to do myself."
