Den of Vipers

by K.A. Knight

He knows what I am—death. Ryder might be the face, Garret might be the enforcer, the muscle, and Kenzo the dealer…but me? I’m the fucking Grim Reaper.

alr invested

“I think I’m in love. Do you think she would shoot me if I ask?”

They’re going to learn that money can’t buy obedience. I’m no man’s object. They are going to regret the day they took me. Vipers? Bitch, please, I bite too.

Diesel is a fucking mad dog, Ryder is an arrogant asshole, and Kenzo is a charming psychopath…I can’t figure Garrett out.

They will never know how close I am to the edge. Diesel went over it a long time ago, but he learned how to live in the dark. Kenzo walks that line, and Ryder? Ryder holds it all back with pure fucking strength. Me? I beat it down.

“There is nowhere in this world you can go, nowhere you can escape us, princess.” I crave her heat, her body, her mind, even her fight. She is my ever-growing weakness, a grey area blooming in my dark heart and stretching its colour across my soul until I can’t help but want to be a better man for her, to be the man she deserves.

stoppp

“Crawl to me, love.”

“I’m gonna marry her,” he tells Garrett, but I ignore that, taking it as just another one of his crazy ramblings. “You have to ask her, genius.” Garrett chuckles. “Nah, I’ll just put a ring on her finger one day and tell her it happened,” he declares earnestly.

I won’t be her saviour, I’ll be her sinner.

Fuck me. Literally. Someone better fuck me right now.

yeah.

what will I do for her? Everything. It comes to me easily. I would do anything. Everything. I would burn this whole fucking city to the ground and find her in the cinders. I would kill, I would steal, I would lie.

“I will follow you always. I’ll hunt you across this world. Even if you hate me, us, for it. I will drag you back kicking and screaming. Hit me, slap me, fight me. I don’t care, the pain is worth it to have you with me, darling. I love you too much to let you go. I’m too fucking selfish to let the best thing to ever happen to us walk away. You’re ours.”

SCREAMING

“You thought I would let you leave? I told you, you’re mine, they would have to kill me to stop me from coming after you.”

There is a goddamn gun in my pussy, and I’m almost coming just from the thought.

i love how roxy is always so aware

You can never be too careful, and with Roxy expecting me home, I find myself wanting to live.

“Do not even think about her, look at her, or go near her, or I will fucking smash your faces in.”

“I’m going to rip their hearts from their chests and give them to her.”

Little Bird? She’s my world. My goddamn black beating heart is hers and she is mine. Mine.

For you, Little Bird, I’m coming for you.

“Where is she?” he screams, and then brings the hammer down on his back.

The Vipers are coiling, ready to strike. Nothing of the Triad will remain after this. Hold on, darling, we are coming.

Love, love is enduring. Love is blind. Love is messy and so perfect, we search our entire lives for it, even when we think we aren’t. I guess I wasn’t either, but I found it anyway in the form of four criminals. Their hearts as dark as their souls.

It reminds me of Diesel, and weirdly, my pussy clenches…like, really, ho? Now is not the time.

Everyone can die, I will kill them all to get my man back.

okayyyy

“Wherever you are is home,” he whispers.

“Where’s D?” I ask in concern, just as I see him stroll from the house with a cigarette in his mouth. He waves at me casually before flicking it back at the house and running towards us. It takes all of three seconds. The house explodes.

“I love you so fucking much, Little Bird, you are my everything. I would kill anyone for you. I would do anything for you. I would crawl on my fucking knees to be at your side.”
