AVERY: Maybe making the call to the cops was a dumb move on my part, but I had to do it. Callan's life was at stake. Yes, I know we exist in different worlds—his far darker and more dangerous than mine—but I've been stupid for him since high school all the same. And now, with that one phone call, my life becomes irrevocably tied to his.
CALLAN: If ever there were an angel here in my hell on earth, it'd be shy, sweet Avery Watkins. She's always been too good to belong to a biker with a past as ugly as mine. Still, I've had a soft spot for her since high school all the same. For years, I've kept my distance to keep her safe. But all that changes the moment she risks her life for me.
Because now, she's mine.
Mine to watch over.
Mine to keep.
