Chapter fifteen: Shut them away or shut down
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56I'm not sure if I should be happy or upset that I managed to find him, well I didn't exactly find him he was here all along under my nose, that stupid idiot. I'm angry and mad and a lot of everything, how could someone who supposedly loved me do this? why didn't he tell me sooner? I could have still been with him and had a life with him, but I guess he didn't feel the same.
Ajax makes Ty leave and I move from standing right next to him to sitting down the furthest I can away from him, I hold my head in my hands and lower them near my lap, needing comfort in my own warmth. After 10 minutes everybody in the gang came back from their business jobs, and the look on their faces each when they walked in were enough for the atmosphere to turn extremely tense, even more than what was before, but they knew that something was wrong, yet they didn't ask, they know better than that-or well some of them do.Most of them stayed silent. Though a few of them like JaceRelated chapters
Me in a gang? No, I'm in a family Chapter Sixteen: The leave
1:39amAfter all this time he is actually alive? How the actual fuck did I not notice this, he's changed so much that I have only been able to see it now, none of this makes sense. Do I call him Ajax or Coby? Do I mention this to anyone else or do I just forget about it and let it go? Fuck that.But while I sit and ponder I notice a shadow outside my door, and then after a few seconds knock hits, making me flinch only slightly. "Dahlia, you awake?" I roll my eyes, "When am I not?" he gives me a short laugh and then opens the door, shaking his head as he enters my room. "I wanted to see how you were doing" he pauses, "Fuck off, Coby" the words barely process my mind before I speak and I can tell he gets visibly hurt and disappointed at my words, now you see how it feels."You know that I had such a hard time having to do that, but I didn't have a choice" I scoff at him, "Are you fucking kidding me right now? I had to literally think I was

(three days since Dahlia moved in with Calvin)13:37 PMI know Ajax has ben trying to locate me, he managed to turn on my phone and nearly find me but luckily I caught him before it got any further, Cal wasn't happy when he found out that Ajax was actually Coby and he was my ex, he got mad at what he did and made me do, and once I told him everything he told me that he would make sure it never happens again.But I know for a fact that Ajax wont stop trying and I don't want him to hurt Cal, no we aren't dating, yet anyway I don't know if I want to create something in my head that isn't there, I don't even know if he actually does like me like that or we are just going off of some fling that we had years ago and it has been relite. Cal and I are baking chocolate chip cookies and dancing to old pop songs that we had both forgotten, I cant help but smile at Cal and his awful dancing and singing, but I can t
Me in a gang? No, I'm in a family Chapter eighteen: should be, but are you
Dahlia povI know that nobody will find me, and apart of me doesn't want them too, I don't want to see their faces again: id rather die. I've been here for so long that I barely know when its day and night and the Scorpos don't help, they party all night and it makes my head hurt. I'm hungry, cold and haven't had any proper sleep for a long time, I'm not sure how long it's even been since I was kidnapped with Calvin, fuck Calvin, I hope he's ok.The last time I saw him he was unconscious after we got caught off the road, I hope someone found him in time. The last time Jaxon came in here, I heard some noise outside of the door, and knowing him he probably did put an extra lock on the stupid door. I keep telling them all that I don't know anything, either that or I don't answer at all, but its taking a toll on my body and mind and I definitely know if I don't give in soon I will die, but I've accepted tha
Me in a gang? No, I'm in a family Chapter Nineteen: Gang life
Dahlia povThere's a sudden knock at the door and its not like I can answer it so I leave it to the Scorpos, who don't seem to be happy about the arrangement. They don't stop knocking, persistent much? Avery gets up and sighs she goes over to the door and opens it. She just stands there, doesn't talkThe person at the door obviously is a stranger, because he tries to hit on her, but as Avery just ignores it, staring at them, "hi cutie, what's your name?From what I can tell, Avery just keeps blinking slowly at the person in the doorway, until they speak up again, this time with an actual sentence. "Okay then, I'm looking for Dahlia." the voice is Jace, and his arrogant behaviour towards Avery makes her even more hostile.But Edison, Link and Avery don't know who he is. I get up from the chair I was sitting at and go up to a place I know nobody can see me from the door. Avery still doesn't say a word, and jace just stands there, t
Me in a gang? No, I'm in a family Chapter Twenty: Wake me before
Dahlia povYou never really feel the pain until your mind processes it and your world finally turns upside down, and im sure if you ask anyone who has been abused they will always say that it never really does get better, they just learn to lie with the thoughts encasing their mind every day, pain doesn't care if you are with family or friends, it doesn't care that you might be happy for the first time in months or years, it doesn't care about you, and it never will.its not like you can say 'hey pain fuck off' because I don't think It will listen to you. Maybe with time things will heal, but the scars remain for eternity, and they will always remain there, they will be the thing that hurts most. Its a reminder that, the thing you might be running from, is always going to follow you, whether you like it or not, you cant outrun your past, it's faster than you, stronger than you, and most definitely can be the thing that kills you in the end. Your past wi

Some things you want to remember but you forget, some things you don't want to remember and you never forget.Ajax povWhile most of us are in lounge, some of the Hunters are out doing business, but it doesn't hold anybody back from doing what they dream of most; sleeping. Last time I checked, near enough everybody in the house is still sound asleep, or drunk still, its 8am.But our mansion and gates does not stop unwelcomed people arrive at our doorstep, Eli needs to check up on the security or im going to kick his ass all the way to England, and while I'm deep in thought the doorbell sounds throughout the entire house, and that's when I make my way over to the door and get the overwhelming amount of hatred for the person standing at the door."Ah, Coby, it's nice to see you again, although I do have to admit I did want my precious flower to answer the door instead" my blood boils and there is a possibility that he sees th

/// time skip - 1 week /// For. Fucks. Sake. I don't want to go back to Jaxon, its not something I want to do, its something I have to do, theres a big difference.when I head downstairs everyone is there waiting for me, last night they threw a party that just consisted of us, pizza and a shit ton of alcohol, there were smiles all around and laughter, but now all is see is a wave of pity and sadness. As I sit down in one of the comfy chairs, Ash come over to me and hands me a box, "just in case they keep you for longer" the box holds a small ankle bracelet and it has small silver sharks and dolphins on, then Jasper speaks up, "it has a tracker in it, if you break the tracker will set of an alarm and we will be able to find you" he offers me a small smile. Then Alec cuts him off, "Theres something outside for you" he then throws a set of keys at me, that's when I make my way to the drive way, a Kawasaki ninja H2R waits for me, "You guys are fucking crazy" I

I made a deal with Jaxon, but I also made a deal- a pact with 'him' when I was becoming an assassin, so truly, words and deals don't seem to matter to me. "Tell nobody about the missions you go on, no confidential information relating to the assassinations. Even if you get tortured, you can't say anything, understand?" His words are repeated again and again over and over. Causing me to have painful flashbacks of everything he did. "You do what I say, when I say it! No excuses, you are stupid, dumb, I can't even believe you are one of the best, you need to understand this is for the best and if you can't believe that then I have bigger things to do to you" "Get it through your thick head that you belong to me! You're mine. Forever and always, mine, nobody else will have you!""You are so god damn annoying, just shut up, can't we do this in peace just once? If you wanted a punishment you could of just asked." "Get a fucking grip Dahlia! Y

Dahlia pov~ jace(clear up any confusion - jace's first name is actually jayson. But he prefers being called jay or jace)I decided a while ago that I'd love to get taken out to a non romantic place.For example, a karaoke bar.It's always been one of my interests to sing, and to play the guitar. I'd never known anyone though, who would accompany me to going to one and performing as well.It had always been kinda scary too when I thought about singing in front of so many people that I don't know.But my dream came true.Sooner or later, when you least expect it. Something great will happen.I was getting ready for the day (it was 2:23 PM) in some clothing that

Dahlia pov~ alec.Today was mine and alec's official first date, and honestly I'm pretty nervous.He said I should wear something comfy that I don't mind getting water on, and that I can get muddy.I went down stairs, and saw alec with a picnic basket. Omg, are we having a picnic? I want to try and scare him, but I know that he has really good senses, so he might already know I'm down here....oh well, can't hurt right?So I go up to him as quiet as I can."BOO!"He laughs and turns around, my eyes go wide when I see what he has in his hand.A knife."you tried and failed, and more like scared yourself" he says in between laughing."

Dahlia pov You know when you have this anxiety and you don't know why? You know when you know people and you still think that they are gonna kill you? Apparently I do need the shrink after all. We are in the private jet now, and let me tell you, all Ajax and Alec are doing is sleeping. That's it, sleeping. Our estimated arrival time will be in 17 hours. So, I decide to listen to my music, which I haven't listened to since i was"kidnapped" by the now dead ,Ja xon. But that's in the past now, And I'm gonna get better, I have to get better, I have some what of a 'family' now, and I want to stay with them. The jet journey is boring. I have nothing to do except from sleep, and I think I've done enough of that for a while. Jasper pov I don't see why the hounds and the Scorpos are he

Dahlia pov It's the same thing every. Fucking. Day. And honestly its getting boring. Don't get me wrong, I love hearing all of them, but I'd much rather talk to them face to face, and when I can actually reply would be nice aswell. But instead, I'm just laying in a hospital bed, probably with the ugly hospital gown on. And I can't do anything to help. I try to do something. I have done for a while now, I try to get myself out of this coma that I'm in, this time though, im not gonna give up, until I actually wake up. And see their ugly faces looking at me.But it only gets my heart racing, every time it does that, the nurses come through and make a scene of it, for gods sake I only want to fucking wake up. Ignore the coma girl, I do it again, but this time I don't stop when the nurses tell me too. I can hear people shouting, I can hear Ajax and

If I knew what would happen, I wouldn't of gotten involvedDahlia povI find an intense stare pierce through me, so I look around and find mateis eyes."We know you want to kill us, well Jaxon wants you to kill us, and we know you don't want to because of some stupid trauma, but come on, get it through your thick skull, Jaxon is using you!" I'm getting angrier at the second, and then the thoughts pop back into my mind, of how Jaxons parents killed my own.Now, I have 7 knives on me and 2 guns which house 9 bullets each and there are 19 gang members in the room. 7+9 = 16 and I obviously let Edison off the hook, Link has been nice to me while I've been here, and obviously Ed loves him, Avery and Saffron haven't done anything wrong, Cedric and Ethan haven't done anything wrong, but they have been assholes.Ellie and skyler are a bunch of idiots who think they own

Jaxon PovI feel betrayed. A part of me knows that what I did was wrong, with Dahlia, she went through abuse nearly everyday at mantian, and I know that, we all know that. But I didn't care, I just wanted my answers.But if she doesn't actually know the answers to the questions, why have I been so blind as to stop? You can tell just by looking at dahlia that she has been through hell, and she's probably experienced more abuse than ever and its all because I wanted stupid answers from an assassination that happened 5 years ago.But I still need to ask her if she will help me fight and possibly kill the hounds, and I don't think thats gonna go well.Dahlia pov"I want to talk to all of you" Armstrong says, sitting down on the couch. "You may be wondering why my sister is here and why I left early this morning, my sister and I need help with tracking down and killing a gang t

Love/lʌv/nounnoun: love; plural noun: loves- strong feeling of affection.Crushinformal- a brief but intense infatuation for someone, especially someoneunattainable.Jaxon povI have been out with Skylar for 4 hours now, and its been great hanging out with her, its nice to catch up on somebody I haven't spoken to or seen for 4 years, shes the only family I have left, and it pains me to see her hurt, I just wish that I could save her from the grief, never mind anything else. I wanted her to have freedom, but we both knew that it would only happen once Dahlia and the rest of the group where not here.Especially Dahlia.She had a gift that I needed gone.Ajax povI'm sitting in the lounge with everyone, having a chat with everyone about Dahlia, and the first thing we talk about is the obvious crushes on Dahlia,
Me in a gang? No, I'm in a family Chapter Twenty Four: an optional way out
Ajax povSaturday comes around fast and all I can think about is Dahlia, I know I have it bad for her, and I realise that I probably won't get her back, I guess faking my death really did fuck up quite a lot. I'm also very aware that all the others too might have secret crushes to, but I know for a fact Ash isn't keeping it a secret, after all most of the Hunters can read her like an open book.However, the gang gets drunk quite a lot and when they do, they talk quite a lot.Jace just keeps to himself now. He is 18, the youngest out of the group, but he did admit that he like Dahlia, he gets crushes so easily I'm surprised he didn't get one on me, though I think he got one on Eli, I cant blame him.Alec hasn't been talking either, well he doesn't talk much anyway, but Dahlia brought him out of his shell in a way, Alec had a relationship with a girl called
