Angel POV.For weeks, we have been holed up in the house. Everyday someone comes calling but I ignore the door. The only time I open it is for the grocery delivery. I spiralled into depression but would only break when Rebel was asleep at night. I would sob in the shower, not wanting her to hear me.Every day, we play different games and watch a shit tonne of Disney movies. We both sing and laugh until the night seeps in and I break down again in a vicious cycle of pain and anger. The feeling of being useless, weak, how they laughed at my futile attempt to get away from them.I know the ladies of the MC have been knocking because I check the camera on the front door. I know Savage watches the house of a night and he has one of his men watching during the day. I don’t acknowledge any of them.I was still healing mentally, physically, and emotionally. But I woke up this morning and had enough of this wallowing. Today we are in the back garden and it’s a nice sunny morning, so we are in
Savage POV.I’m riding through town when I see Gianni walking towards a tattoo shop. I signal and pull the bike up and turn it off before I climb off and lean against it, waiting for him to come back out.The windows of the shop are tinted to give extra privacy, so I can’t see what he is doing. It’s strange because I know the Moretti’s have their own guys and ladies that they trust to tattoo them. So why is he here? Ok, I’m not saying he can’t go elsewhere for a tattoo, but this is strange.Gianni and Marco came to town three weeks ago and I’ve been going out of my mind trying to find out why. Angel is still not responding to anyone or the texts I’ve sent her. I’ve even gone as far as climbing up the damn drain pipe to check in the windows at night to make sure my girls are ok.It breaks my heart to see my Angel sobbing in her sleep, clutching her pillow in the fetal position. She is never going to be the same again, and I can feel her slipping from my grasp.The bell above the door r
Angel POV.I stare him down from the head of his table, sitting in his chair, and I grin like the cat that’s got the damn cream. No, scratch that the cat that’s got the whole dairy farm.“You wanna tell me why you are here? In my seat at my fucking table?” He sneers at me as his brother’s grumble in agreement. I laugh, thinking Savage reminds me of Sheldon Cooper from The Big Bang Theory ‘That’s my spot’. Quickly composing myself. I just stare at him when an old timer stands up, banging his hands on the table and I shift my icy gaze to him.“No, bitch is allowed in here, in this room. It is for club fucking business and you are not part of this club. Plus, you are a woman and it’s forbidden!” he snaps and I laugh, swinging on the chair as I place my feet down and stand up with my hands planted firmly on the table.“Thank you for stating the obvious. That I am a woman and I wouldn’t want to be a member of this shitty little club. You all know who I am. I am here because I can be and no
Savage POV.I watch in stunned silence as she walks out of the room with her uncles behind her. Fuck! Could this day get any worse?“Dad, need I remind you I am the president of this club and you are retired?” I say after the last brother has left the meeting room.“And need I remind you that you need to get your head out of your ass before you start a fucking war. A war we won’t fucking win! So far Savage, you have fucked up and keep fucking up. Get your shit together or I will force the vote. It’s there is black and fucking white what is happening and you are burying your head in the damn sand! Tell me, Ryder, do you feelings for Foxy?” I look at him and my jaw clenches at him.“No, I don’t …”“Then snap out of it. She is the reason this has happened to you. The reason three fucking years ago. The reason you lost out of the life of your child, yet you stood there and defended her in front of the woman you claimed to love. Sort it out or I will,” he growls and turns to walk away. Whe
Angel POV.Today has been a shitshow. I’m sitting on the front step with a bottle of bud in my hand when I noticed a dark van drive past the house. My uncles are staying with Vinnie and Emma, and Scar is renting a house not too far away.When we got back, I just needed time to get my head around what happened today, how he fucking tried to defend that cunt. How is he too fucking blind to see what she is? I scoff as I bring the bottle to my lips. She must have a pussy made of solid fucking gold.I pull my gun out of the back of my pants and place it next to me. I always hated guns, but my parents made sure we knew how to use them that as well as self-defence training. Always expect the un-expected. She would tell us and boy, did I not see this coming.I drain the bottle and just sit there waiting for the universe to correct itself. The sound of an engine driving down the street pulls me out of my thoughts as I see the van again. This time it slows as the side door slides open and gun f
Angel POV.I follow the tracker, and the brazen bitch is, in fact, at the clubhouse. I see Boomer standing, barking at the prospect, trying to get inside. I chuckle seeing my boy. I climb out of my SUV and whistle, and Boomer stops barking and walks to me.“Good boy.” I say, patting him on his side as I lean into the SUV to grab a bottle of water and his water dish. I fill it and put it on the ground and he goes to it and laps it up.“What’s your name prospect?” I ask as I walk towards the gate. He looks from me to my monster of a dog.“Danny.” I smile and nod at him.“Well, Danny, can you be a babe and open the gates and let me in?” I ask as sweetly as I can. I even bat my damn lashes. He isn’t a bad-looking guy and I can tell he is a sweetheart. The life of the MC is going to turn him into a heart breaker.“I can’t do that. I’m sorry.” I sigh and pout before I whine like a little privileged bitch.“How about this, handsome? You let me in.” I walk closer to the gate and hold the bars
Savage POV.I’m lying on the meeting room table as Doc patches me up. I ignore everything and everyone. Last night has confirmed what I think I always knew, but was too stupid to acknowledge. Luckily, my men weren’t seriously hurt. Danny was shot in the leg as the van rammed into the gate. It has been hours since the shit hit the fucking fan.The damn Vipers did this to her. Foxy is still in with her father. And Angel, she believed everything that slut had to say. She shot me. Any lower, she would have killed me.The things that Foxy said. Only part of it was true. That part about me fucking her before Angel turned eighteen. As soon as Angel turned eighteen, I stopped fucking Foxy and anyone else, until Foxy fucking played me, claiming she was pregnant with my child weeks before the photos arrived. I don’t remember sleeping with her the night she claimed I did only waking up beside her. I wasn’t lying when I told Angel I haven’t been with anyone since I found out what Foxy did. I’m a
Angel POV.Sitting in a hotel presidential suite by the town that the Viper’s run, I look at the desk and the information that is in front of me. My mom arrived early hours and the first thing she did was hug and hold me. She apologised for what happened. It is not her fault.Scar is staying at the Moretti mansion with my father, brothers, and aunt Rosena, looking after Rebel while she is here. She left an hour ago with twenty of her men to go and see Savage. She is so angry, but I just waved it off. I have no time for her drama right now.“We need to find them before Savage does.” I say as uncle Gianni looks at me from the chair in front of me with a cup of coffee in his hand.“Why would you want to do that? This is the perfect chance for him to prove himself.” I look up from the papers that are scattered on the desk to him.“Why would I want him to prove himself? You heard what she said. You heard it all. So tell me, uncle G. Why would I give him a chance?” I ask him and he chuckles
Harmony POV.My hands are sweating with nerves and anticipation. The butterflies in my stomach are going into overdrive.Are we rushing into this?“I love you too Mav, do you want to come inside?” I ask him, as we are both still in the cage outside my house. He is silent and I wait for him to answer. He turns in his seat to completely face me, and my heart is in my throat. Oh god that was such a stupid question. Is he expecting more?“Harmony, baby, I would love nothing more than to come inside with you,” He sighs and reaches for my cheek. I find myself leaning into his warm palm and closing my eyes.“Let’s not rush anything. I don’t want you to feel pressured that after we have had a great night that you have to do that for me. Harmony, I can wait and I want you to be one hundred percent certain. So let’s not rush anything. Yes, I have told you I love you and I do. I’ve not said it to get you into bed. I would love nothing more than to do that with you, only when the time is right. B
Maverick POV.Harmony looks absolutely gorgeous. Even when she is wearing simple clothes, she looks breathtaking. I’m so glad I took the initiative and invited her out for this date.Hound has been riding my ass about her and told me to stop being a pussy and make the damn move. He even told me he and Michelle will have Melody, so I can go and get my girl. As annoying as he is at times, he has a heart of gold. He is a good man.So the decision was made for me. I was so fucking nervous when I pulled into her driveway. But as soon as she opened the door for me, I relaxed completely. Harmony has this way with people. They are drawn to her like a magnet. She is kind, smart, beautiful and I can see her with my baby growing in her belly. But I know she may not be ready for all that just yet and I know I’m getting ahead of myself, but a guy can dream.“I never thought in a million years that you could put away all that food.” I say as I take my shot. We are now playing pool and having a grea
Harmony POV.Looking at the bed and my options I’m starting to become more like the Grinch than anything. I pick up a dress, then look outside. Nope, too damn cold for that. So that is definitely going in the not on your life pile.I may just opt for comfy-casual. So skinny black jeans, long sleeve black embellished jumper and my knee-high boots. I look at Mystique and she is laying on the floor watching me.“What do you think?” I hold them up and she chuffs. I smile.“Good choice.” I say as I rip the towel away and throw on my bra and panties, pulling my knee-high socks up my legs before I wiggle into my jeans, button them up and pull the jumper over my head. I walk to the vanity and grab my hairbrush and decide to leave my hair down.Quick swipe of mascara and lip oil. Grab my boots and pull them on and zip them up. I stand and look in the mirror. Something is missing. I grab my belt and throw it on. Ok I can do this.I grab my grey beanie and throw that on my head and fix my hair a
Harmony POV.It has been two weeks since I came back home, and the snow has fallen overnight. Making everything look like a winter wonderland.The man who was the breeder for Mystique told me everything I needed to know. He gave me the commands and what each meant. So I know not to use them.He gave a demonstration, and I was sickened by what she was capable of, but not really surprised considering her true nature. I do watch nature documentaries, so I have an idea.For his cruelty of animals, he was killed and buried far away. Since then it has been decided Mystique will stay here with me. She is too valuable to be placed anywhere. Especially after word had broken out about her and how they can be trained in warfare. She will be safer here with me. She is a mix of an endangered species, so this is the best for her.We are in the process of making the perimeter fences higher with state-of-the-art security systems in place so she can roam freely around the compound, but of a night, she
Harmony POV.Walking into the clubhouse with Melody in my arms, Mav holding my hand and Mystique walking beside me. I felt relief as the weight of everything that happened and could have happened is lifted from me.The members all stepped aside to allow us to pass. They were all saying the same things. So happy you are back. We are happy to see you are ok; you are so lucky we found you.I nodded at each person as I sat down. Michelle comes running towards me with the kids.“Thank god, you are ok.” She hugs me and Melody and I hug her back as best as I can. The twins have tears in their eyes.“Oh my little brave boys, I’m ok. Come here, I’m ok.” I hug them both and they cry on my shoulder. These kids must have been terrified they would never see me again, same as the members were.“Ok, I’m here now. Let’s dry those tears, and I want to hear everything you three have been up to while I was gone.” I say and they nod their heads and wipe their faces and begin telling me what they have don
Harmony POV.I woke up and looked at Mav; he is sleeping peacefully. I try to move, but he holds me tighter to him. I look around the jet and the members are all sleeping. They must all be exhausted. This is my family and I am extremely grateful to each and everyone of them. I check on Mystique and she has moved and is now laying by my momma’s feet. Like a giant lap dog.“Go back to sleep baby, I’ve got ya,” Mav says and god above, his sleepy voice is the sexiest thing I have ever heard. I snuggle closer and close my eyes again.I’m jolted awake, knowing we have landed. I sit up and stretch and yawn. Before looking at Mav and he is smiling at me and I blush, feeling the heat crawl up my neck to my cheeks.“Don’t be embarrassed you are beautiful Harmony. Melody is going to lose her shit when she sees you.” Oh god Melody.“How is she? Is she ok?” I ask and he smiles at me before pulling my hood down and he shifts in his seat as he looks at me as we wait for the jet to stop.“She gave cl
Harmony POV.Once we arrived at my family’s private jets, I could see some of the members of the MC standing watch, armed to the teeth. Even some of the mafia guards were with them and some girls from the Mother’s Revenge. They all rallied for me. It brings tears to my eyes.If they didn’t come for me when they did, this would have been a very different ending to these events.The brothers and the mafia guards all averted their eyes when Maverick carried me towards the stairs of the private jet.“No one shoots my cat or there will be hell to pay!” I say loud enough as Mystique walks behind us. Maverick groans and I know he is thinking I’m crazy. Maybe I am. But Mystique is unique and all I want to do is protect her.Seeing her in that cage, scared and uneasy, broke my heart. She is a living, breathing, beautiful creature. She deserves better than that and I intend to give that to her.“We need to sedate her and get her in a cage, Harmony. She can’t just lie down. There isn’t enough ro
Maverick POV.The MC is waiting outside the building, ready to storm the place. I can see some of the members of the Sons Of Hades. One in particular sees me and I know who he is. He is called Lucky and is Hank’s son.He nods his head once at me and I look at Wild Child and nod for him to follow me. The Princes Of Darkness are in penguin suits and I’m so uncomfortable. The bloody bowtie is strangling me and I can’t wait to take it off.“Lucky, what a coincidence.” I say to him and he looks at me and I now know who has been feeding us the intel. He is nothing like his father, and Melody would talk about her friend called Lucky. He and a few of his brothers would bring Melody food and clothes. So for that, I am grateful to him. He did try to get her out, but was caught.He spent two weeks in the cells for insubordination and was kept away from Melody until I took her away from there.“Outlaw, Wild Child. I know you are here for Harmony.” Wild child steps up to him and he is evenly match
Harmony POV.We have been driving for a while with no breaks, so I have slept for the most part of the journey. I can’t tell if it’s still daylight, but I have a feeling it is starting to get dark. I hope that what Lucky told me is true and that my family is coming for me. If not, then it looks like I will have to fight my way out.“We are here.” Lucky says, and I groan and pretend to come round.“Looks like she will need another dose.” One of the bad brothers says and Lucky sighs.“No, too much will kill her and we need her lucid to stand on the stage. So no more. Besides, her new owners will knock her out before transport.” Lucky tells the idiot and the man grunts and agrees. Lucky takes a breath.“It won’t be much longer now Harmony, it will be over soon.” He says, and I nod my head.“I know, thank you Lucky.” I say when the van doors are open and the van jostles when whoever has entered to lift me and take me out. I’m carried over a shoulder again as we enter a building. The warm
