Mazikeen
The first thing I did this morning before even getting ready for work and lessons was call and put an offer in on an old, broken, rundown cabin.
It won’t be perfect, far from it, but it won’t have Edward and Lucinda there. I’m hoping I have confirmation by this weekend, and then I am set to leave.
When I left for work this morning, Edward seemed to think I was fine, that I was just having a bad day, and that I didn’t actually mean what I said.
He’s going to be shocked today when he gets a call saying I requested divorce papers. I said he had a week, but he doesn’t. I just need time to find a place to live.
The lessons have gone well so far, and weirdly, I am looking forward to the one with King. Sitting in the staff room, I don’t eat. I just hold the coffee and consider how Edward is going to react to this divorce.
“Hey.” A voice says, and I look up to Roseanne. I think that’s her name. She teaches physics.
“Hi,” I give her a
MazikeenI watch as everyone leaves the class, and King stays sitting with his eyes fixed on me. My mouth opens to speak, and then I close it again.I don’t know why I didn’t tell him that I was married. It was a foolish thing; I realise that now. He stands and walks to the door. I watch as he locks it and pulls the blind down.My body shakes as he turns and walks back to me. He leans over the desk, his eyes fixed on mine.“You are married. You knew that you were married. You did not tell me. You hid your ring, why?” he asks, and it’s strange, I’m used to the way King speaks. This time, he pronounced each word slowly to make me aware that he is pissed off.“I didn’t hide my ring. It’s being fixed. I’ve not had it on for over two months,” I explain.“But ya married!” He shouts, and I nod.“I filed for a divorce today,” I reply, and his anger only grows.“Today! What the hell, babe? I would’ve fucked ya, and ya didn’t tell me ya
MazikeenI wake up and hear Edward in the shower. I use the time to grab my bags and put them in the car. Depending on how things are at the cabin, I will move in today.Once I have done it, I grab the envelope off the floor at the door. I walk to the kitchen and cook myself something quick before sitting.Opening the envelope, I see the divorce papers. Signing them, I leave them in the middle of the table and wait. I watch as Lucinda walks in. She smiles at me and sits.My eyes turn away from her and I hear Edward enter as I'm finishing eating."Where's food?" He stands looking at me."It's called a fridge; that is where the food is. That there," I say, pointing at the cooker. "It's a cooker. It's where you cook. And these here, are divorce papers and a pen, so sign." I slide them over, and he stares at me."I thought you realised last night, that this wasn't happening," he stands waiting."I thought you real
MazikeenWhen I get to work, I do my usual classes. I consider how to avoid King during lesson, but I know I can’t. Unless I get someone to cover that class.I can do it. If I ask another professor to pick up that one class, King won’t see me as I’ll be gone. I decide to ask Julie, and if she can’t, then maybe Rachel, but Julie seems like someone who would agree.When everyone leaves for lunch, I go to where the staff sits together. Walking in, I look and find Julie. Sitting opposite her, I smile. I need to pray she agrees, or I may just pretend to be sick, and the entire class is cancelled, which I don’t want to do.“Is there any chance you can step in for my final class? I need to be somewhere,” I whisper, trying not to be heard.“Today?” She looks at me, shocked, and I nod.“I wouldn’t ask, but I really need to do something, and it’s at the same time,” I plead with her, and she nods.“Okay, but Mazikeen, the makeup is failing to co
KingMazikeen is a good liar, shit I had no idea that she was fuckin' married. None whatsoever. I left her in that room and knew tomorrow, I would get more answers.Climbin' onto the bike, I ride back to the club. I want to find out the truth about her soon-to-be ex-husband. Scrap that shit. I want to find out the truth 'bout her. She married at seventeen, which ain't shit, but considerin' the fact he's like twice her age?Na, that shit isn't normal. Stopping at the club, I walk in and take my seat."Ya late boy, again," my dad, King, looks at me."Got shit to sort," I shrug. "What's on topic today?" I ask, tryin' to push the conversation away from me."The Bears, that's what." Colt grins."Production keeps getting halted 'cause of their problems with local police," Toes speaks, and I laugh."We got choices to make, votes to make. Throw the
Maz POVAfter Roseanne saw me, I hid. I came back to the cabin and stayed inside. I call in sick for the next two days. I hate that I'm abandoning my students, especially if no one can take my place and classes are cancelled.I can't risk King seeing me, though. I need to get my shit sorted before speaking to him or seeing him. It was foolish of me to go in when I couldn't cover and hide the bruises, that's for sure.The days go by quickly. Edward keeps calling me, but I ignore him. Based on Julie's message, he showed up at work looking for me as well.Tomorrow is Friday, so I've planned lessons to help catch everyone up on what was missed. I've got no choice but to go in tomorrow.My head snaps up when I hear the knock. No one knows I live here. I stay still and don't move, but I hear the knocking again."Mazikeen, I know you're in there. I can see your car and was told this is where you now live
Maz POVEdward stands smiling at me. I can't go back with him, but I also can't let King see him. I'm stuck right now. The knocking gets louder."Maz, answer the fuckin' door!" King's voice shouts from outside. Slowly, I walk to the door and open it. King smirks at me. "Ya hidin' from me, babe?"My head shakes, and I keep it down. "Busy, that's all," I whisper. He moves and grips my chin to raise my head. His eyes go to my face."What happened? Don't fuckin' lie," he asks, and I glance behind to see bikes and others standing waiting."It doesn't matter now, it's basically healed. You need to leave," I say, and I go to close the door, but his foot gets in the way."He 'ere?""Is who here, King?" I ask."The soon-to-be ex-husband, that's fuckin' who," he shouts, and my head shakes."Not seen him," I reply. His head drops, and he sighs.
Maz POVWe ride inside a compound, and I tap King on the shoulder. This isn't the hospital. I glance across and see the sign. Cursed Kings Garage. I tap him again, and he turns to me."Off ya get, babe. Usually, I would lift ya, but it might make it worse," King says, and I nod, climbing off. I watch as he swings his leg over the bike and gets off.There are so many bikes. His arm wraps around me, and his hand settles on my hip as he guides me towards a building.Cursed Kings MC is written above it."King, you said we are getting me checked?" Why the hell are we here? I feel myself panicking as he pushes the door open, and we step inside.The place is loud, and I thought the last place had a lot of bikers. I was wrong. This place does."Doc," King shouts and waves someone over. Everyone turns and watches us. I shouldn't be here."Ya, good King?" The guy looks at us."Na, follow me," King replie
Maz POVKing stays looking at me, waiting."Look, Edward is someone who believes sex is for creating babies. So no, I never watched porn, King. I barely had sex once we realised us trying to create a baby didn't work," I whisper, and he nods."So you were trying to have a kid together?" He asks."Tried, failed, and my body can't do what most women can," I reply, quickly closing my eyes. Those are Edward's words, not mine."Ya got proof ya can't?" King asks and grips my chin. My mouth opens and closes. "No, so don't fuckin' say that shit again. Don't even think it," he states before kissing down my neck."My brothers want me. Rose is there. Go see her, and my sister will be through soon," he says before stepping back. He guides me to where Roseanne is sitting. "Take care of her for me," King says before walking to where his dad is.Moving, I take a seat. Roseanne looks around the ta
Maz POVNo. My head shakes, and I look around, panicking. He grips my chin and forces me to face him."What is the one thing Mazikeen that will keep a person to keep your secrets? Someone they love and cherish. Your dad had a choice, give us you and we make sure you don't die, he speaks, and well, we have no use for you anymore."My body tries to escape from under his.I don't want to believe that. I don't want to."What about when I was fourteen?" I ask. Grateful that, for now, he is just talking to me."Your dad was caught sneaking to meet someone from the FBI. We needed to send him a reminder and a warning to your brother not to fuck Don's wife. We showed how easy it was to get to you and how easy it would be to kill you."My eyes scan the room for an escape, not from him but from the conversation.He moves and wipes the tear away from my cheek."Who was it?" I ask. "Who has her?"He moves back and turns me ove
Maz POVI fight back the tears as I rush. I'm not even sure where I am going. I just need to get away from there and think about all this. I need to work out why King wouldn't tell me he knew her.I continue to drive and consider everything.My eyes snap to the side when I see a car heading for me. My hands move to turn the car so it misses, but I'm too late. It hits me, and I spin across the road before slamming into the railing. Groaning, I hold my neck, that fucking hurt. I should have been focusing on where I was going. If I had been, maybe I would have seen the car on the wrong side of the road.The door opens, and I'm pulled out before being pushed into a car. Glancing up, I see Edward. Why is he here? I am fighting to wake up my mind after the crash. My body hurts. I'm not sure if it's from shock or the actual crash."I said I wanted to talk things through, but you refused to listen, so I am forced to take you," he shouts, a
Maz POVWe're sitting, having coffee, and we've only really spoken about King and him growing up. Big King, however, in a way is shutting down; he's not telling me everything, and I don't know what he's hiding. I feel like it has to do with King's childhood, as he keeps avoiding talking about it."Right, finish ya coffee and try again. Let's see what ya remember," he looks at me and I nod.After finishing my coffee, I grab the gun and load it, ensuring the safety is on. I stand and focus on the target. Flipping off the safety, shooting, my body rocks. Big King groans."Fuck sake Maz!" I feel him behind me. "What's the one thing I said to make sure ya always do?" He asks. I can't remember. We've spent too long sitting and talking for me to remember what he told me. I guess this is a problem as I need to remember for longer than thirty seconds."Stop worryin', Maz, and relax. Open ya legs," he explains, kicking my feet apart, "Relax.
Maz POVWalking to my car, Big King stops me. "Go to the lot," he says, and I nod. Climbing in my car, I drive there and see him following. I'm not sure why he wanted me to go here; maybe this is where Tony is now.Stopping the car, I step out. He waves me over, and I follow him around the back to the shooting range. My eyes scan everything as he holds the door open for me. The last time I walked in here, King was shooting at Tony's head, well, close to it."Don't worry. There's nobody on the floor today," he laughs slightly, and I step in. I'm still not sure why I am here. He leads me around and stands beside a table.I stare at him and then at the guns. Is this a joke? It has to be right. Is he wanting me to touch a gun?"Pick one up, see which feels right," he says, waiting for me to, but I don't move. I'm not touching a gun. "Maz, ya need to be protected. Anythin' could happen, and ya end up alone. Pick 'em up, see which feels
Maz POVWalking back down, I grab my bag. "I'm late for work," I mutter."Rose sorted it. Someone stood in for your lessons you weren't there for," Ink explains, and I nod. Tony is glaring at King again."Get used to it Tony, we fuck often, if it bothers ya that much, get earplugs," King laughs, and wraps his arms around my body. "See ya in class, yeah?""I better, King," I laugh and kiss him before leaving. I hope they don't fight. Getting to work, I find myself lost in classes. Lunch comes, and I pack my things away. I'm going to wait for King this time.Normally, I leave, but I'm waiting. Sitting, I wait and watch the door open. As I see the person walking in, I sit up."Would you mind accompanying me to my office, please, Mazikeeen?"James Felton looks at me, and I nod. Standing, I grab my things and follow him, getting into his office I sit."Is everything okay? I know I was off for a bit, but I had home l
Maz POV"Sorry for all the shit Sweetpea, swear I didn't know. I stayed away because I knew coming back too much would drag ya into the shit, and I didn't want to," he looks at me, and I nod."It's fine, Tony, I get it," I shrug slightly. Nothing can be done anymore."No, it's not fine. Why the fuck didn't ya tell me ya was raped? Been fuckin' fourteen years." He looks at me, shocked, and I can see he is hurt."I felt ashamed, Tony. Mum and Dad blamed me. They said I shouldn't have gone to that party and I caused it. I wasn't about to tell you as well and have you say the same shit," I explain."Ya think I would blame you? Fuck Maz, no. That shit isn't down to you, even if it had nothing to do with me and Dad it wasn't on you. You were a fucking kid trying to enjoy something in life," he shouts, and I nod."What do you know about your daughter?" He asks, and I shake my head."Nothing, I don't know anything, Tony. For months, I was hid
Maz POVKing doesn't move, and Tony glares at him. Doc and Ink sit chuckling, and I feel like something has happened we don't know about."What's ya problem?" King shouts and looks at Tony. I want to go back upstairs to the peaceful life we had when we woke up without the drama of everything and everyone."Don't agree with her being with ya, that's what. She deserves fuckin' better," Tony argues, and I sigh."Well, it's not ya choice, is it," King mutters. He's right. Tony has no right in my life. I kiss King's neck and keep my body wrapped around him."No, but I ain't happy about having to sit here and hear ya fuckin' using her in bed," Tony shouts, and my eyes widen. Shit, of course, they heard. I hadn't even thought about that.King steps forward. "Using her! I didn't fuckin' use her," he shouts and I bite against his ear, he groans and stops before looking at me."Still attached to your back," I laugh, and he roll
Maz POVWhen I woke up, King's arms and legs were still wrapped around my body. I felt safe here. He is like a giant man cage protecting me. If I could stay here for life, I would. I know that no one can get close enough to hurt me while King is wrapped around my body."Yesterday was hard, babe, but at least now we're gettin' answers. Tony might be able to help find ya daughter as well," he explains, and I nod. Something tells me Tony won't know. If he had no idea about what had happened to me, how would he have known about my daughter? Surely, if they hid what happened to me from him, they would hide my daughter as well? I turn in his hold to look at him. I don't want to talk about any of it, not yet.My arms reach up and wrap around his neck. Kissing him, I push my body closer to him. "You didn't fuck me yesterday, King. I'm not letting you out of this bed until you have," I smirk, and he laughs. I mean it, though; yesterday was too different
Maz POVTony glares at King."Get the fuck away from him, Sweetpea," Tony shouts, and my head shakes. King's arm stays wrapped around my body, and his other hand is grasped into my hair. It makes me feel safe; it reminds me I'm safe, and there's no way I am walking away from King.Standing, I cry into his chest. God, all this time, I had no idea Tony caused it. I had no idea he was part of it all."How about, rather than telling her to get away from me, ya think back and consider what the fuck ya did when she was fourteen that fucked with The Bears and pissed 'em off!" King shouts, and I hear movement."She didn't tell ya, neither did ya parents. She was raped at fourteen. They cut The Bears patch into her fucking hip. The fuckin' cunt got her pregnant and came back for the baby, but ya didn't know that, right? Great fuckin' club ya part of that rape and beat women," Big King shouts.The room falls quiet for a moment. Did he
