As Luke Ree's brother in Law.

Luke looked up at the large building in front of him, it had taken him a while to track him down, but here he was, finally. His gaze momentarily looked over towards her house, or what had been her house, shaking his head he sighed as he walked up to the front door and knocking loudly, his feet shifted backwards and forwards as he waited for the large man to answer the door.

Ree had told him a lot about Joker, how he had swept her of her feet and broken her heart, and how despite it all she loved him, so much that at times it hurt, heaving in a breath he swallowed, shoving his hands into the pockets of his jeans.

Joker closed his eyes and grabbed the foot long Escrima stick from besides the couch before standing up. He braced it against his left arm partially hiding it incase he needed to defend himself. Slowly he made his way to the front door and peeped through the hole he tossed the stick behind him onto the couch before opening the door. "Mornen, how can I help you?" He asked eyeing the man up and down with an apathetic look on his face.

Luke eyed the man up and down, he looked to be the same man in which Ree had been dating, but he had only seen him a hand full of times, all from a distance. “Your Joker right?” He questioned with a raised brow, licking his lips he let out a breath.

“I come in, its about Ree”

Joker raised an eyebrow torn between slamming the door into the man's face, punching him, or telling him to bugger off. "Yeah...Follow me and deadbolt the door." He turned and pointed to the couch. "Have a seat, can I get you something to drink? Coke, Pepsi?" Joker made his way to the kitchen his heart pounding in his chest to the point where he was pulsating.

Luke nodded his head and once he was inside did as he was instructed before taking a seat on the edge of the couch, “Im good” He muttered with as shake of his head. Now he was here he didn’t exactly want to be the one telling him this, Ree had told him some things, not a lot but enough to get him worried about what said news was going to bring.

“Look I don’t know how to tell you this so im just gonna come out and say it” He ran a hand over his face, sighing as he look over at the mans back, “Ree’s dead”

Joker froze, completely. His body stopped movement as he looked out the kitchen window. His mind was the only thing moving and in the moment he wanted that to stop too. "What happened..." He swallowed and turned on the ball of his foot to walk back slowly to the living room. He sat down on the chair opposite the couch.

Nate swallowed looking over at the larger man, letting out a sigh he shook his head, “Official report was O’D” He stated with a sigh falling from his lips, he shrugged his shoulders as he eyed the other man trying to gauge his reaction.

“Guess she wasn’t coping as much as we all thought”

"Thank you for letting me know...You should get back on the road. I'm sorry for your loss." He tried to ice his words but a mix of rage and pain were laced in them, visually his hands were drapped loosely over his knees and he sat errect staring at the floor by his feet. It was all he could do to not start throwing things. He knew then it was his fault, the man didn't need to explain it to him. He had destroyed her, it was all he was good at. His heart slowly started beating again.

Luke swallowed slowly nodding his head, he stood, he wasn’t going to argue with the stronger and bigger man. Licking his lips he turned on his heal and began moving away before looking back over at him, “Look iv known Ree for a long time, she loved you” Sighing he let out a huff, “But iv never seen her take anything stronger then painkillers” He muttered with a shrug.

Walking to the door he pulled it open quietly closing it behind him.

"Thank you..." Joker said softly as he man left, he couldn't bring himself to move. Instead he focused himself, his anger, his pain, into his glare. He took deep breaths holding each one till it hurt and slowly released. His eyes looked at the roof. "Is this all I'm good for? Killing? Even if I don't fucking want to I can still end a life?" His voice was shaky and cold now as he finally stood and made his way to the shower. He knew what he was going to do so that this couldn't happen again, after he was done helping Dom he was going to just dissapear. There were places he could survive, Ukrain, Rome, someplace he couldn't hurt anyone again.
