Zorro (Reapers MC Book 16) Page 12


  As much as I know her words are true, I can’t stomach the idea of letting these fuckers get away for what they’ve done. They shouldn’t be living their lives, spending time with their families . . . they should be in the ground with their co-conspirators.

  With any luck, it’ll happen sooner rather than later.

  Epilogue

  Alone or not you gotta walk forward.

  Zorro

  One Week Later . . .

  It’s been one hell of a week, being stuck in New York for a little longer than I thought, but Boss needed our help so we stayed. Especially, considering Ainslee just went down to Virginia. Frost and I just rolled back up to the club after our trip and I just parked the car. Frost hops out of the passenger side and I get out of the driver’s side. Figuring I can leave my shit here and grab it later, I head right for the clubhouse doors.

  I need to fuckin’ see my woman, especially after the shit that went down at Stonewall. While it wasn’t what I wanted, I am happy that some of the men who hurt her have been put down. It’ll make me sleep a little better at night, and while I never want her to know the true lengths, I’d go for her . . . I know deep down she probably knows the man she’s with.

  Pushing open the doors, I scan the clubhouse and look for the woman with honey blonde hair and blazing blue eyes. She’s chatting with Rosa, laughing at something that could’ve been a silly joke, or just at some casual conversation.

  Crossing the distance between us, I take her into my arms and slam my lips down onto hers. Her lips mold onto mine and she relaxes her body, moaning into my mouth at our connection. I pull my lips away from her slightly and whisper against her lips, “I missed you so fuckin’ much, sweet girl, more than you can ever know.” Looking into her blue eyes, she smiles sweetly at me and brings a hand to my cheek, rubbing her palm against my stubble.

  “I’m so glad you’re back home,” Ruby tells me, her eyes sparkling with happiness.

  “Yo, dude. Welcome back,” a familiar voice causes me to turn around and I see Chaz with his arm around a woman I’ve yet to meet.

  “Hey, brother. Nice to see you,” I speak up, remembering before I left that Zane told me Chaz would be coming down here full time. “Who’s this lovely lady you’ve got with you?”

  Chaz smiles brighter than I’ve ever seen from the measly fucker. “This is Crina, my ol’ lady.” While Crina smiles in my direction I spot Frost come in from behind me and shock is crossing her face. She does a complete one-eighty and leaves the clubhouse. Now, I don’t know what’s going on . . . but I can imagine it might be weird for her. She told me Cheyenne slept with Chaz. I’m not an idiot, and even though she says she’s fine, underneath the façade she puts on she’s really worried.

  “Santiago, I need to tell you something.” Ruby grabs onto my hand and tugs me away from the crowd just a bit.

  Looking down into her eyes, I smile ‘cause I know what she’s about to say, but I want to beat her to it. “I love you too, sweet girl. I love you so fuckin’ much.”

  Tears well in her eyes and I know I’m the happiest motherfucker alive. Ruby is the light of my life, and there isn’t anything I wouldn’t do for her.

  Author’s Note:

  Dear Readers,

  With any luck, you thoroughly enjoyed Zorro’s story. As you can see, we’ve reached the end and he’s living his happily-ever-after with Ruby. These two characters pulled at my heartstrings for ages, so writing their story was a complete joy.

  For those of you asking, the next book in the Reapers MC will be releasing in January and it’s Axel’s turn. Make sure to go pre-order that bad boy right here.

  If you’re hungry for vengeance, it’s still coming. The rest of Ruby’s attackers will be meeting their maker in The Elites. Not only is it Dex from the Reapers MCs story, but it’s the moment everything will come full circle.

  As always, thank you so much for being a dedicated reader!
