Death Wish (Book 3): Black Aces MC, #3

By Zoey Parker

This is book 3 and the finale of the Black Aces MC series!

She's about to die in my arms – night after night after night.

No one lies to a biker and lives to tell about it.

Not unless they're eager to die.

Janessa got caught in the wrong place at the wrong time.

And I'm the man who's about to extract a very steep price for her mistakes.

JANESSA

I'm quiet by nature. A good girl at heart.

But the harsh world I grew up in forced me to get tough and get smart – or die trying.

My father did his best, but he didn't make it.

He ended up buried in debt to an outlaw motorcycle club, the Black Aces MC.

And the Aces are not the kind of men you want to owe money.

Somehow, he paid it off.

But by the time he did, they didn't just want their debts fulfilled.

They wanted interest…

Blood interest.

And my father's life was the only payment they'd accept.

Now, I find myself in the Aces' employ.

With a hidden thirst for vengeance after what they did to my family.

But Damian sees right through my façade.

When he gets me alone, he's going to punish me for every lie I told to get here.

And what's worse is…

I know that I'm going to love it.

DAMIAN

I had to hand it to her – the girl had balls of steel.

But coming here was a very stupid mistake.

She's in the lions' den now, looking like a snack…

And I'm the hungriest monster in this cage.

For one brief moment, she thought she'd gotten the revenge she came here for.

Then I forced her to her knees, and she realized she was very wrong indeed.

This is a biker's world, darling.

And you're about to become a biker's toy.

Coming into my grasp was a death wish.

***

A tragedy brought her into the biker's bed… but only a miracle can bring her out.

Chapter 1

Iawoke early the next morning and went to the kitchen to make breakfast. I had thought I would surprise him in bed. As I worked on chopping up vegetables for a fresh omelet, I remembered that I hadn’t touched base with Jeremiah and reached for my phone, quietly retrieving the five-dollar bill from the pants I had left in the bathroom floor and dialing the number written on the currency.

Jeremiah speaking.

It’s me, Janessa.

About time.

I know. It’s been crazy. D insisted that I stay with him after Ringo was murdered, and I wasn’t able to get to you for a while.

For fuck’s sake, Janessa. You are staying at his house?

It’s okay, Jeremiah. He knows what I’m doing. D didn’t kill my father.

What do you mean he knows? Get the hell out of there, Janessa!

I’ve got it under control.

There was a long hesitation on the line before Jeremiah spoke again.

Please tell me you haven’t compromised your position by letting D get to you. I hope you aren’t sleeping with him. He’s a vicious thug, Janessa.

You let me worry about that. Just listen to what I have to tell you.

I told him about what had unfolded so far while he mostly listened, asking a pertinent question here and there. Finally, he told me what I didn’t know.

Things are too hot there, Janessa. I need for you to pull out.

I can’t. I won’t. I am still going to find out who killed my father.

I know who killed your father. Roberto Suarez. We have it on videotape.

What? When did this happen?

Anonymous tip. Someone sent it in.

So, after all this time, someone just decided to send you a video of my father’s murder?

Apparently so.

For what reason?

I don’t know. Now that you’ve told me about the situation with D, I’m guessing something happened that made him a liability.

Not just him, but there are others. We’ve found instances in the books where Roberto Suarez was making loans to a number of folks and writing it off as day labor payments.

Money that went out but didn’t come back in, at least not to the club. Smart.

Exactly.

Then you already knew it was Roberto who killed your father.

No. I knew he had something to do with it, but hadn’t been able to confirm it yet. I didn’t know if it was him or one of the others we are linking to him one by one.

You need to get out of there, Janessa. You have what you came for. We’ll arrest this guy and try him for his crime.

No, not yet.

What do you mean, not yet? This is the whole reason you went in there, and we have it now. What is going on in there, Janessa? What are you not telling me?

Just wait, Jeremiah. I’ll give you more. I’ll hand you enough to put Roberto Suarez and a good number of others away for so long they’ll not see a day on the outside before they’re old and gray.

I don’t want a few bad seeds, Janessa. I want Damian Diaz and the whole corrupt lot of them.

I can’t give you D.

I’m becoming well aware of that, Janessa. I’m hearing things I don’t like. You’re too close to him, and he’s not what he seems.

No. He is not what he seems to you. I know what he is and what he is capable of, but I also know he is something more than that. He’s not a bad person.

Not a bad person? For the love of Christ, Janessa! What kind of brainwashing has he done to you? The man is a drug dealer, a killer, a thug. Don’t delude yourself.

"Look, if you don’t want to help me anymore, that is fine, but don’t arrest Roberto just yet. Give me a bit of time and I’ll give you more, enough to make sure
