AshtonWe’re halfway to the club when Grayson stops, and I watch as he places the phone to his ear. He looks annoyed and clearly is shouting. More has happened, but what? Getting from the bike I walk to him as he hangs up.“That was the Waysley brothers. Rizzo tried taking over his clubs today, well, his guys not him.”“He couldn’t start small, could he? He honestly thought taking over a gated biker community would be easy?” He’s a fucking fool.“Let’s just get Raven and sort it.” I nod and get on my bike. My mind on things, surely even Rizzo realised that Hawk is protected by us, not that he needs it. The whole biking community is behind him. So maybe it was a ruse? A distraction from what Rizzo was doing? We stop outside the club and I see a car smashed up. That’s not good, getting off the bikes we rush in and hear the alarms.Grayson ignores the dancers and everyone and rushes through, pushing the door open I freeze when I see her. Her clothes are ripped, her head is bleeding, and
GraysonSitting in the office we stay quiet. Today was fucked up, from start to finish."You didn't mention it to her?" Ashton looks at me."Because it's fucking cruel. It's her birthday, and for all we know, that card could have been Rizzo trying to distract us." As the words slip through my lips, I know that is foolish, that isn’t Rizzo’s style, so he is back, he’s here, watching her."You don't even believe that. Come on Grayson, what would Rizzo gain from sending her card covered in blood? Fuck all, the guy smashing someone's car outside to distract the security fine, yes, but the card no." Emmett speaks and I nod."I actually meant her ignoring you and following." Ashton laughs sitting."Don't Ashton, too much shit is happening for you and your childish shit, you want to do it, fine, do it away from me. I have had enough." The room falls quiet, I'm a jerk.“Grayson.” I spin hearing his words. His eyes widen seeing the blood, glaring at him I don’t move. I forgot to lock the damn
RavenI spend hours with Ava, sitting drinking and talking, I update her on everything that has happened. Minus the weird messages and gifts. That I won’t unload on her. I explained about the other night with Emmett, and then we sat for at least ten minutes dying of laughter when she realised that was what today's jokes were about.It's nice. I almost forget about all the shit that is waiting to explode. Yet, every now and then I see her looking at me and realise I have put her at risk. The longer I am her friend, the bigger that target becomes.I fall asleep with her, after hours of laughing and having fun. Only happiness doesn't follow in my sleep. I find myself reliving everything, screaming and trying to wake up from the nightmare.When I finally force myself to wake up, Ava is looking at me worried."Are you okay?" I nod at her words. "Really Raven? I'm your best friend, just tell me. Please.""I can't." She will hate that I have put her at risk."Raven, I'm your friend, how can
EmmettWaking I smile, today Raven celebrates her birthday even if she hates us for it. Walking out I make a coffee and sit, Ashton joining me."He seems to be sleeping for a change."I laugh at Ashton's words. Grayson rarely sleeps after six am, or before midnight. So for him to still be asleep after nine is strange. Then again, a lot has happened."No Ava?" I look around. I didn’t expect her to be one to sleep in."No, I’m guessing she is asleep. Her gifts are here. Alexa has things set up there. So tonight should be good." I nod to Ashton's words. Sitting we talk quietly, a short while later Grayson walks out of Raven's room.I look at him, he looks dead. He hasn’t slept, and based on his face he knows, and she spoke. He looks like he is carrying the weight of everything on him right now."She told you." It's clear from his face she spoke. He nods and sits down."She told me enough. Doesn't matter, for now, today we ignore it and concentrate on her birthday. Ashton go cuddle her wh
RavenWaking up next to Ashton was a shock. I was ready to punch him, the difference between him and Grayson is huge, so when I woke not feeling Grayson but someone else, my first thoughts were to hit the person.Luckily for Ashton, I noticed it was him. The way his hands possessively grasped my ass made me realise. He was smiling away at me, almost like he was up to no good. It was at that moment I heard my phone, and quickly turned it off without looking.I said good morning to him and walked to the shower, only to watch him follow, his eyes fixed on my ass as I walked to it. I couldn't help but look at him amused as he stepped into the shower with me. He teased my neck, telling me he was starved, before I had a chance to process his words, he was on his knees making me cry out with pleasure. Once he was satisfied with himself, he kissed me and left.I spent five minutes in the shower considering his actions, they were strange for him. Then, I turned on the phone. I wasn't expecting
GraysonHer small party went well. I struggled to work, my eyes constantly watching her dance and every time she was in certain lighting, I swear the dress went see-through and she had no bra. I didn't mention it, but looking at Ashton and Emmett, they clearly saw what I had.Just before leaving, I got a message saying her mum had arrived. I'm hoping it is a flying visit and she will be gone tomorrow. I’m hoping Raven tells her to fuck off, although I doubt it.We get back and Ashton and Emmett walk off, and I know that is them giving me space to tell her about her mum. I keep her hand in mine as I go to my room, and guide her to the shower."Your dress is see-through." I look at her, under this light I can see her fucking nipples."Is it?" She smiles at me."And you're not wearing a bra." My hand reaches up and grasps her nipple, a moan escaping her lips and I feel it harden under my touch."I tried telling you when you said to get ready, you told me to do it, so I did."Chuckling at
RavenI woke in Grayson's arms, his hand gently wrapped around my neck, holding me against him. I felt uneasy getting ready and sitting with Ashton, last night was still on my mind.I feel him nudge me and turn, his grin widens, and I laugh. Somehow, Ashton settles my nerves, his childish nature and jokes help me relax. I feel his mouth kissing down my neck, his words taunting me. Standing, I slip down my underwear and straddle him. His eyes widen and I laugh.“Cutie pie.”Leaning forward I lick his lips, my hands lifting my top and throwing it. As I lower myself on his cock he groans, grasping my hips and moving me so I grind against him. My moans begin to get louder, and his hand clamps over my mouth.It gives me the freedom I need, I begin to work my hips against him, watching his head fall back as he groans and enjoys me riding him. My body shakes and feels like electricity is shooting through it as someone grasps my hair, pulling my head back.Whimpering I look up and see Emmett.
RavenGetting cleaned up I walk back to them, and he appears again."I need to take you back home." I look at him confused, my eyes on them still eating. "I had a message, we need to leave and I am not leaving you here with them.""I will be fine." He stares shocked."Raven..." He sighs looking at me."Look, your mum is here. They are not going to act up with her here. I would rather not run away from this meal with your mum Grayson. She invited me around and I feel rude walking away halfway through.""Fine, we won't be long. Just don't leave." He walks back out and I follow, sitting down I watch as Grayson speaks to Emilia and they leave.My mum looking at me, and now I feel weird. I can't avoid their conversations. No matter how much I wish to, I can't. Ten minutes later my mum is telling Emilia about a holiday that never happened. Well, it did for her, not me. Although in her story I was there. I finish eating, and Emilia hands me a gift."I know my sons will have given you somethi
