Cam dropped his head before looking back up. “He’s gone.”

Bear furrowed his brow. “Gone? What the fuck does that mean?”

“Means no one’s heard from him.”

“He safe now?”

“He’s gonna need to lay low for a while.” Cam’s eyes flicked back and forth between us. “We found his cut in the club, reported it to the Widows and officially declared him dead along with the others.”

“He check in with the bureau?”

“I talked to his handler this morning. He told me Nick checked in, went through debriefing, and then said ‘I’m out, make them believe I’m dead,’ so that’s what we’re doing.”

“Snap believe it?”

Luke nodded. “Yeah. We could tell it pissed him off that he lost his VP and the clubhouse because of an explosion, but I’d venture to say he seemed even more pissed off that he lost Nick, well Smoke to him, in the same blast.”

“They rebuildin’?”

Luke shook his head slowly. “No clue, but if I had to guess, I’d say they will.”

“That’d be my guess too,” I agreed. “Gonna take some time, though.”

“Should be quiet around here for a while then.” Pike spoke for the first time.

Luke dropped his arms. “I’m heading out.” He lifted his chin in our direction. “Gia had the baby. They’re having a little party next Saturday, and Brody said to invite you guys.” He pointed at me. “Make sure you’re there, or Kate will kick my ass.”

I jerked my head back. “Kate? Why?”

Luke smirked. “She wants to get to know Maggie.”

“Syd too.” Cam nodded. “Said make sure you bring her because she wants to hear how the cats are doing.” Cam snorted and shook his head at me. “Two cats, brother? Really?”

Luke aimed his grin at me. “She appreciate it?”

I cocked my eyebrow. “What the fuck do you think?”

Luke chuckled. “I think you both enjoyed her birthday.” I laughed along with the others, only sobering when Luke slapped his hand against my shoulder. “Never thought I’d see the day when Maggie O’Brien smiled freely, and that’s because of you, brother.”

I nodded, but no more words were needed. The Sinners saved her from a situation when he couldn’t, and I’d known for the last year how appreciative he was, but I wasn’t sure he ever believed she’d find happiness. I knew. I knew from the day I met her that if she gave me the chance, I’d give her something to smile about every day for the rest of her life.

Luke dropped his hand and headed for the door with Cam not too far behind, but they both stopped when they stood a few feet away, shared a look, and turned to face us.

“Glad you had the opportunity to say what you needed to say to your father before he died, Gunn.”

My eyes narrowed, but I didn’t react and neither did Bear even though I felt his body tense beside me. “Don’t know what you’re talking about.”

Luke nodded and grinned down at his shoes before his gaze landed on me and Bear again. “Gotta admit, I wasn’t surprised when Snake turned, even expected it.”

Bear stood straight and dropped his arms. “How?”

“Brody’s cameras are better than I’d even hoped.”

I snorted out a laugh. I should’ve known these men wouldn’t leave anything to chance. “How the hell did Brody get in the clubhouse?”

“After they left for the rally. He found a good time and was in and out before Snake and Viper knew what the fuck happened.”

“You’re lucky they didn’t catch him, brother,” Bear stated seriously.
