Chapter Fifteen
‘Yeah, it's me. God, I've missed your voice’. I had to cover my mouth so I didn’t let out a loud sob. The tears were already falling down my face uncontrollably. I had waited so long just to hear his voice, it was like a dream.
Had I fallen asleep? Was I dreaming? I pinched myself and then silently winced. Nope. I wasn’t dreaming.
‘I miss you so much!’. He sighed. ‘I love you’.
‘I love you too. Listen, I don’t have long-’ It hurt my heart knowing he would likely be gone again in a few minutes… till god knows how long. ‘-Jemma told me that you’re hav
Chapter Sixteen**Two Nights Later**Everything went great last night. Right according to plan. We got the second guy alone, the newbies turned up and took him away. Problem sorted. Now, however, was my time to go and do this last one alone. I had been dreading it all day. Admittedly, I’m alone when I make my move on these guys, but I knew that the other girls were around in the club in case anything happened, this time, they weren’t. I was in there solo and I was SHITTING myself.Jemma had given me some money to go out into town today and find something ‘’new’’ and ‘’sexy’’. Sarah had come with me to give me her honest option and to just
Chapter SeventeenThe ride back to the creeps house was a fast one, he lived locally, he told me that before we had even got into his car. I tried to be ‘’sneaky’’ and check to see if Jemma’s car or the van the guys used were around but I didn’t see them. I just had to trust that they were... Just hiding very, very well…He kept his hand on my thigh the whole way there. It made me uncomfortable, but of course, I didn’t let that show. NOTHING about this made me comfortable, but I just repeated to myself once more, this was for Alex… and the others.Think of Harry who was attacked, Sarah who could have lost her husband, their children, their unborn child, Jemma, Cleo, everyone else who needs these guys home.
Chapter Eighteen**About a month Later**I had my bedroom door open, people had been coming in and out of the clubhouse, making noise, but I didn’t care enough to find out what was going on.. Or be bothered enough to go and close the door so I couldn’t hear... Whatever it was going on.I had been keeping in my room, again. After all the shit that happened with Jemma and the incident with the plan going south, in a very bad way, I just wanted to keep to myself. I’ve been trying to stay positive but keeping myself to myself... I haven’t really heard much news about the guys...It's hard to stay positive when you don't have anything to be positive about.
Chapter NineteenAs soon as I pulled Alex into the room, He pushed me against the door, closing it in the process and instantly started attacking my neck with kisses. I let out loud, long moans and held him close, never wanting him to stop. His hands were already roaming my body, tugging at my clothes. When he stepped back, He pulled my top off and I pulled off his. Moving across the room to the bed, He pushed me down and started pulling off my jeans and underwear at once. He was being so in control, I loved it.‘Eager much?’ I joked. He just laughed and started kissing up my naked, exposed skin, getting higher and higher up my legs‘Mmmm, Alex, that feels so nice’. I heard him chuckle again, softly as his lips continued to rise and he pushed my knees down, spreading
Chapter TwentyOne drink turned into two... Which turned into three… and before I knew it, I was at least 9 drinks down and starting to lose my senses. Me and Alex were all over each other and to be completely honest, I didn’t care if Ron liked it or not.Maybe if he paid more attention to Jemma and less about what I am doing with Alex, she wouldn’t be off with Allan every chance she got.‘Harley, Come dance with me!’. Sarah shouted, grabbing my wrist and pulling me towards the dance floor. Obviously, she wasn’t drinking, she was pregnant… insanely pregnant at that, but she was just having fun, and that is the kind of positive energy everyone needed.I really wasn’t much
Chapter TwentyOne‘W-What the hell are you doing here?’ I finally managed to ask after what seemed like forever since I spoke. He just stared at me. Even now, even here, knowing I was in the safest place I could be, knowing he couldn’t touch me… I was terrified of him. I honestly never thought he would come here for me… how did he even know where I was?!‘There is a lot of people looking for you, Harley. You just take off in the middle of the night, don’t tell anyone where you’re going, I was worried sick’. No, he wasn’t. I could tell from the look on his face.‘The important people knew where I was’. He just smirked.‘I didn’t.’. That was the point
Chapter TwentyTwoAs soon as Ryan’s lifeless body dropped to the floor with a bullet hole in the dead centre of his forehead, all the guys erupted, shouting over each other, wanting to know what was going on, asking Harry what the fuck was he thinking, asking me what the hell had happened, it was all just too much.‘Alex, will you get her out of here while we deal with this!?’ Ron shouted over everyone and before I could respond, Alex was pulling me away from the scene unfolding in front of me and towards the apartment.Ryan was dead.He was gone.Harry shot him!
** Trigger warning for talks of Abuse and Miscarriage**Chapter TwentyThreeI wrapped my arms around Alex’s waist tight and held on for the insanely long ride we were taking. I found myself questioning how far away they had buried Ryan’s body. Did they kill people so randomly often?I already knew the answer to that.We were going where they buried those gang members that sent the guys to prison?I already knew the answer to that too.I just rested my head on Alexander’s back and tried to cancel my thoughts as we continued to go... Wherever it was that we were going…
Chapter ThirtyNine - FINAL CHAPTER I looked at myself in the mirror and sighed, using my hands to flatten out any of the imperfections on my depressing black dress. It was the funeral today. The day I had been dreading for weeks I wasn’t ready to say my goodbyes just yet. I felt like I hadn’t had long enough with him yet. A lot of people still don’t understand or know what happened. One minute he was here, alive, then the next... He was gone. Just like that. Due to it being a shooting and him dying in the hospital, Police were involved but of course, Allan made it go away so the club could deal with it all themselves. In their own way, I guess. I don’t know how he was able to make it disappear off the police radar, I didn’t as
Chapter Thirty Eight** A few Weeks Later **‘Good Morning Harley, How are you today?’ Doctor Matthews asked, coming into the room, followed behind by his students that were shadowing him on his rounds. I smiled and said I was doing fine and asked if there was any news… but of course there wasn’t.I had gotten to know the doctors and nurses here quite well over the past few weeks. I rarely left Alex’s room, to the point they had actually provided me with a bed to sleep in now. It wasn’t comfortable... But it was more comfortable than the chair and meant I didn’t need to go home at night anymore.I only left when I absolutely needed to, for new clothes or food.
Chapter ThirtySeven Luckily, The chair next to Alex’s bed was big and comfy enough that I could curl up in a ball and sit for hours… which I had been doing. I stayed with him the whole time, One by one, the other guys came in to see him, but I stayed put. I was scared that if I left him, he’d...well, he’d leave me.. Forever, and I wasn’t going to let that happen. As far as I knew, everyone had gone home. It was very late but luckily, when they realised I wasn’t leaving, the nursing staff brought me a blanket and allowed me to stay with him. I mean, what was the harm? The beeping of his machines, keeping him alive, were a horrific constant reminder of where we were and what was going on. I looked out the window, I couldn’t see anything. It was pitch black and most of the outside
Chapter Thirty SixWe arrived at the Hospital and I climbed off the bike, Yelling hysterically that we needed to go and find him... Now! Harry managed to calm me down long enough to tell me he was going to call the guys and find out where they were and what was going on, but when he tried, none of them were answering their phones. I was getting impatient.‘If they brought him in in an ambulance, we would probably be in the emergency room… or at the very least, they will know where he is, right?’‘Yeah, I guess, but-’‘Well then let’s go!’. I shouted, grabbing Harry’s hand and pulling him towards the hospital entrance. He stopped and pulled me back.
Chapter Thirty Five** No One’s Point of View **As the MC made their way to the warehouse, Ron was thinking over and over all the lies he could potentially use. He had already covered his ass by saying he cancelled the meeting and cast doubt on the Devils Angels by saying he forgot to tell them. Sure, he COULD face backlash and some blame for his involvement in that, but it would mean his Club and daughter believed the bullshit. Believed that he wasn’t the one to pull the trigger and end the life of his once best friend, Alexander Coates.Ron rode in front of the others, How it always was. As the leader, how it should be, but all of them dreaded what they could possibly walking into. It wasn’t just unusual for a member to drop off the face of the
Chapter Thirty Four** The Next Day **I headed into the clubhouse, annoyed. Alex didn’t come home last night. I get he’s busy with Club shit, but not coming home?! Not even calling to say he wouldn’t be home?! What an asshole. I was about ready to completely rip him a new one, but his bike wasn’t outside. I guess he was still busy with Tommy...or something else.Maybe someone else?No, No of course he wouldn’t do that. I trusted him. I trusted him completely, I was just very fucking pissed off with him right now!Cleo was sitting at the bar. I knew Jackson was here and Harry, Sarah wasn’t though. Apparently, she was having a few pai
Chapter Thirty-ThreeRon’s Point of View.I left the warehouse and started riding back to the garage, Only stopping to throw the gun into the creek on the way. It wasn’t on the usual ride to or from the warehouse, so none of the others would ever find it. It was a cheap throwaway, Not part of the club or my own private stash of weapons. Absolutely nothing to point a finger at am.I told Jemma I was working late last night and that I was staying at the clubhouse so even if she wouldn't think twice about me not being there when she woke up this morning. I’d simply tell her that I overslept and missed the meeting with Alex and the DA’s. They weren’t expecting Alex, so the ‘’shot on sight’’ excuse would fly. It would caus
Chapter Thirty Two** The Next Morning **Alexander’s Point of ViewMy phone vibrating on the bedside table woke me up. The sun was just coming up outside but it was still really early. By the time me and Harley actually went to sleep last night, it was after midnight. She wasn’t best impressed when I told her I had an early morning start to meet Ron at 6 am at the warehouse.She has this idea in her mind that he’s trying to cause drama and trouble for me and her… and the club. I can’t say I didn’t think the same, but there wasn’t much I could do about it... Just try not to let it get to me I suppose.By the time I dra
*** Thank you so much to everyone who sent their well wishes and asked about my little boy. He’s home now, thank god. Little bugger, has had hospital ‘’sleepovers’’ every month since Christmas :( Thank you for your patience and understanding, I hope you enjoy the chapter (I know it's short, im sorry) and the ones to come! ***Chapter Thirty OneI pulled dinner out of the oven just as Alex walked in the front door. I smiled to myself, glad that I had timed it, literally, perfectly. He came straight into the kitchen and wrapped his arms around my waist, resting his chin on my shoulder.‘What did you make?’‘Nothing amazing, just some homemade Spaghetti Bolognese. I told him.
