gonna have to stay away from Rachel.” His eyebrows furrow and I see him start to protest but I hold a hand up. “Donovan needs to think he’s won. He needs to think we are all divided. That’s the only way we can surprise him. He won’t see it coming and that’s what we want. Besides, we’re gonna need proof to convince Rachel. At this point she truly thinks she did something wrong and that this is all her fault.”
    Pierce stands up and starts kicking the shit out of the wooden railing. The wood creaks and groans until he knocks it over. You can see the rage in every line in his body. Then he visibly calms down and faces us. Wesley and I have taken a step back and Channing moved further up the stairs. “This is all my fault. Even after four years of being rid of her that fucking cunt bitch is still ruining my life.” He looks up at Wesley with self-loathing in his eyes. “When will she leave me alone? When will I have paid for all of my mistakes?”
    She rushes out of my arms and flings herself at Pierce. “I don’t know honey. She’s always been a cancer for this family. We may never be rid of the destruction she caused. I know we can never be whole again. Donovan will never have a place with us now, not after he took it too far. Aunt Lily is going to string him up by his balls and set his ass on fire.”
    As much as I like the sound of that, “Anyway, we need to get proof, then we set Rachel on his ass. In fact, by the time we’re all done with him, there won’t be anything left.”
    “Where are we going to get proof? He will have covered his tracks.” Channing mentions, crossing his arms over his chest and giving me a look. A look that says this isn’t going to work. Well then I’ll just have to change his faith in me. Asshole.
    “Damien. He’ll know anyone who sells or makes GHB. And we search Donovan’s house. Not today or tomorrow, but next week. If everything goes like I plan, we can get in there one day while he’s at work. He’s not going to keep anything in the living room but there are several rooms in that house that his family doesn’t venture into.” And I won’t be the one to do it. I’d never leave that place the way I found it. I would destroy everything he owns. This motherfucker might think he’s won, but he really should have thought about the wrath of a pissed off brother. That’s one of the things I couldn’t believe. Is he so arrogant that he can’t see it? Hell, he beat up Ashley’s ex-boyfriend while he was in the hospital just because he almost got her killed. Does he not realize I would kill him for this?
    “Oh fuck!” Wesley shouts and then runs towards her car. She throws open the back door and a few seconds later she pops back out with a tiny redhead in her arms.
    Jesus.
    BeeBee Vaughn lights up the second she sees Channing. Channing on the other hand looks like he might throw up. “Channing! Channing! Channing!” the little girl chants struggling to get to him.
    Wesley finally sets her down. She runs at Channing with all that red hair flowing behind her like fire. Channing bends down and scoops her into his arms. “Hey there my precious girl,” he mumbles, kissing her on the head.

    It takes one moment in time to break someone.
    This is one of those moments. BeeBee and I have always had a special bond. Maybe it’s our love for her sister or maybe it’s because we are both old souls. I can’t really tell you but I know we have one.
    I struggle with it every day that I don’t get to see her anymore. I miss the bitch with every breath I take but I also miss BeeBee. She’s a little miniature version of her older sister, lots of people used to ask if they were mother and daughter.
    “I’ve missed you so much my tiny fairy,” I whisper into her hair. I hold back my tears but just barely. I’m not going to fall apart in front of the little girl in my arms.
    I look into her blue-green eyes and I see knowledge a seven year old shouldn’t
