Forever - Book 3 (Star Crossed MC Lovers) by Sierra Rose

wire hadn’t even worked from what I could tell and now I was going to get punished for it, and rightly so.
    "Stop!" I begged as Dante moved to hit me again.
    He stopped mid swing, though and stared at me with anger consuming his dark eyes. "Stop?" Dante said as he forced my shirt from my shoulders. "No, baby. I’m just getting started. Get on your knees, or I’ll blacken your eye."

Chapter 12
    Dane
     
    A van parked outside of the Black Heart Motorcycle Club sat idle, but there was a flurry of activity inside due to me being completely frantic. I sat at the radio controls with a set of bulky headphones on my head, listening to the live feed carefully as I worked like crazy to scramble the message and get it off to my superiors. Selene was clearly in trouble, and we had to do something before yet another young woman turned up dead. This one meaning far more than the others had. Lucky would never forgive me. Hell, I’d never forgive me.
    Shaking my phone out of frustration, no reply had come in from my superior yet. I was left with the judgment call. If it had been anyone but Selene, I would have been calmer about it, but there was no way I could let something happen to her.
    Launching myself from the vehicle, I grabbed a black pistol out of a black backpack that sat in the back of the utility van. Popping the magazine into the gun, I sent four shots flying into the night. I needed attention, and more than that… I needed to draw the Delgados out of the fucking house. With all of them packed into the place, there was no possible way I could get in and get back out alive. Both Selene and I would die trying.
    I moved back inside the van and pressed the headset back to my ears as my heart raced. I couldn’t sit there much longer. Even if death was part of the deal. Listening to Selene get attacked was too much. The sound of Dante and Selene’s fight was muted, but it must have meant that the bastard had ripped the wire off of her. I was grateful that the device was still operable, but fuck if I didn’t need them to be a little louder for the recording.
    “C'mon Selene... C'mon...” I urged as I listened. She was such a tough girl. I knew she could get out of the shit she was in. If anyone could, it was her. I didn't want to completely blow her cover, seeing that the only one that knew she was involved besides himself was Lucky, and now Dante of course.
    If the Black Hearts knew the truth about Selene and her connection to the DEA and its investigation into her father, Selene would be in even greater danger. Right now, the Black Hearts were just up in arms over her connection with Lucky Morrison. But now that Dante had found the wire, Selene was in even deeper shit.
    It had been five minutes since the shots had rang out. I removed my headphones and let out a sigh of relief. There was an approaching train of motorcycles coming down the road.
    “About damn time, Morrison,” I complained as I put my headphones back over my ears. Selene’s voice rose up sharply, and I flinched, feeling damn near helpless.
    “No Dante! Stop! Don’t do this. We don’t have to start out our relationship like this. I’ll bite you. I swear I will, and then what?” Selene yelled as something crashed loudly.
    “Selene, this is bullshit! Fuck our relationship. What's with the fucking wire? Did you think that I wouldn’t notice it?”
    “Don't you get it?!” Selene yelled. “I was trying to frame Morrison! Not be with him!”
    The noise in the microphone ceased for a moment. Clearly what Selene was saying held water for Dante. Maybe the bastard wanted to believe her. I could only hope.
    “C'mon on, how stupid do I look?” Dante asked with a malevolent voice.
    Does he really want her to answer that?
    “You know, Selene, you think you're real slick,” Dante began, sounding as if he was getting closer to the microphone.
    “I have no idea what you're talking about, Dante. No, Dante! Get away from me!”
    More shouting ensued as the
