"Boss we have a problem," Axel says walking to my office
I cringe. "How bad?"
"Level 7 bad." He says giving me a knowing look
I drop my head back and sigh. "Alright, I'll be right here." \"
He nods and leaves the room just as my phone starts to ring. Leo's name flashes on the screen and I quickly answer. "I know Axel was just here."
He chuckles. "It's not that bad Asher is making a big deal out of nothing."
"Are you sure? Because I can be there..." He quickly cuts me off
"You will not leave the office. You have us, and we can handle this
Besides, you have that big meeting this afternoon and I'm not letting you miss it. Someone has to keep things running." He says and I smile
I sigh. "How is she?"
"She's fine. Like I said Asher is overreacting. I had Wyatt take her so we could take him to let off some steam. If it was up to him, Doc would be

living at the house full time." He says and I can tell he's rolling his eyes as he says it. I
"Shut up man! There was blood!" I hear Asher yell in the background
"She got a couple of scrapes man, she isn't mortally wounded!" Leo yells back. "Anyway, she is fine. Jayden got her all bandaged up and Wyatt took her to get some ice cream. That girl is tough as nails."
He isn't wrong
Three years have passed since the night we fought against Zane's men and the Russians
Three years since we lost Devaro and I took over as the head of the Angels.)
For three years we have enjoyed raising our strong-willed and trouble- making daughter Willa. She was born fighting against the doctors and didn't calm down until Jayden took her into his shaking arms and held her against his chest. Our little Angel is a big daddy's girl and has all the guys wrapped around her tiny finger. Not only that but every member of our crew adores her and treats her like the princess she is
Thanks to all the help from the guys I have moved into this role with ease. The first year I spent cleaning up the mess left behind by that night. The police who were in Zane's pocket were quick to shift loyalties when we gift-wrapped the scene for them with Zane as the cherry on top. His execution was quick but sent the right message...There is
Epilogue
someone new in charge
We decided to keep my actual identity secret when it comes to crew business, so no one knows the face of the new leader of The Angels
However, I took on a public role when I bought out the majority of shares of Zane's company taking it over as my own. The board members were effectively flushed out and new members were chosen...five of them. Leo, Jayden, Logan, Asher, and Wyatt. My guys helped me reshape Zane's company and we have cleaned up this city
Of course, our darker business is a constant battle of keeping things clean. There are always those trying to weasel their way in but that is never tolerated. The Angels run these streets and everyone in this town knows it
A few of Zane's former associates tried to hide and build their business so that they could creep in and try their hand at overthrowing me

They quickly learned that any attempt at trying to bring me down wasn't worth losing everything including their lives. Most of them took my warnings to heart and left town
The deal with the Families in China went through soon after Devaro's death and they were more than happy to accept me as their new partner
We haven't had any word that the Russians plan on making another move toward us yet, but this silence on their end won't last forever. I

made sure that we have people there keeping an eye on things so that we will know if and when they decide to make a move against us
In all, these last few years have resulted in balance for our city
Something that we are constantly fighting to keep, but I enjoy the fight
In fact, I crave it. That dark seed that had laid dormant inside me my whole life bloomed into a full-grown flower with thorns dripping in
venom
Yeah, I can be fair.....?)
"So about that meeting...do you need backup?" Leo's voice pulls me back to the here and now
"No, I think I can handle a little thing like a few street thugs," I say
"They just need a little talking to."
He groans. "Damn, I like watching work though."

I open the drawer where I keep my holster and blood-red Glock. "I know but you are on Asher duty. I don't want him on edge tonight for dinner,
I have a big surprise for you guys."
"Yeah? The fun kind?" He asks in that sexy way that always gives me chills
"That comes later. This will be just as good though I promise." I say. \')
A surprise that involved a trip to the drug store and two little pink

"Alright, we'll kick some ass baby. I'll see you later."
"See you later, love you," I say as Axel walks back into the office
"Love you too," Leo says before I end the call
"Everything ready?" I ask Axel
"Ready boss." He says holding out a mask to me
I clip my holster to my pants and take the mask pulling it over my head
We came up with the idea of me wearing the mask once I took over Zane's company. It has also given people something to fear. Sure it may seem a little extreme to wear a mask, but nothing sends more of a message than a black mask with thorns dripping red growing out of it like a crownRêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
