All Chapters of The Stripper Woman : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

HunterFuck you for making me think for a single second that I'm not.Her words ring in my head. It's hard to swallow through the lump in my throat. My chest constricts and every beat in my chest drives her words in further. We made her think she wasn't enough. To know that she ever, for even a second, felt like she wasn't good enough because of us. It makes me sick.There's so much pain in her eyes. Looking at the grown woman in front of me all I see is a child that was forced to grow up. I can see the hurt turn to anger inside her. Can see her distrust and hate for me and my brothers. It makes the anger in my own chest raise its head. She left us without even saying goodbye. Never telling us why. She ran. Then almost ten years later she shows up, doesn't seek us out and acts as if we're the monsters. Refuses to tell us where she's been or what's happened to her. Doesn't apologize or try to explain. She doesn't get to hate us for trying to keep her safe. She wasn't even happy to se

Alexa"Tried to?" Mr. Rux questions, his voice calm but eyes burning. Lowering my gaze all I can do is nod. I don't want them to know. Any of them. Not now, not ever. How weak I was. What a coward. To have let it go that far. To have stayed that long."What happened?" Mr. Rux tries again. Trying to calmly probe an answer out of me with kindness. He has an idea of what my relationship with Sebastian was like.Abusive."For the sake of my pack, of this town, I need you to tell me exactly what happened." I hear his heavy steps as he moves around the counter. Shade's there in a second halting Mr. Rux before he reaches me. Shade rivalling Ryders height towers over the pack leader. Mr. Rux stares at me over Shades shoulder. "Alexandra. Please."My eyes widen at the word. I have never heard him use it and by the surprised intakes of breath by the others in the kitchen I wager they haven't either. At least not often.I nod.Reluctantly Shade steps aside. Mr. Rux grabs the bar stool next to mi

AlexaThe fear of me toppling over is very real. The entire room spins around me. My emotions have been strapped into a rollercoaster and they're not being let off any time soon. Three of the men I hate most in the world are on their knees before me swearing a blood oath to protect me. Always.The word reverberates through my bones all the way up to my skull rattling my brain around with the force of it. The thump in my chest is almost painful. My mind can't put together what I've been so certain of all these years and their behaviour now. Past and present doesn't match. It's as if someone's taken two puzzles and tossed the pieces into the same pile scrambling them together. Here I am, picking up pieces that don't fit.They rise together, moving as one. Shade goes to the kitchen bringing back a glass of water. Since my body remains unmoving, he gently lifts it to my lips. The cool liquid does wonders for my parched throat. Croaking out a small thank you I take the glass from him and d

AlexaTwo thoughts circle each other in my head. Fighting the other to take up the most space. To get to the forefront of my mind.1. Gregorio Gild is alive.2. I'm going to kill the guys.Jeremy's arm snakes around my middle drawing me flush against him. Keeping me from escaping. There's really no need. This place is full of wolves. If I tried to run I wouldn't get very far. Part of me is warm and limber from Jem's words. It would be so easy to sink into him. But the other part of me is furious. That part is very much aware of Jeremy's charm and is screaming at me not to trust him, punch them all, take my chances and run.Ryder's face is cold and determined as he turns toward us. With swift steps he approaches and takes me from Jeremy. As he bends slightly to throw me over his shoulder, I let my rage and desperation fuel me. My knee comes up and slams into Ryder's ribcage. He doesn't even grunt. Blinking I'm hanging upside down slamming my fists into Ryder's muscled back trying to do

RyderWith a shriek that can shatter eardrums Bethany flings herself at Alex. Blood sprouts from Beths face. Alex's near damn perfect jab broke it. We heard the crack from here. Alex lets the crazy woman tackle her to the ground. To be honest, this fight has been a long time coming. Any time Bethany came after Alex when we were kids she did so with her friends in tow. She never dared fight my girl one on one. Seeing them now, I can understand why.Beths arms and legs flail around aimlessly just hoping to land a hit. Every hit from Alex is purposeful. It isn't difficult for her to throw Bethany off and climb on top of her. Beths nails find purchase on Alexs's face. My little troublemaker doesn't even flinch as the five fake nails, that look more like claws, break through skin. Alex grabs Bethany's arm and twists."Get off of me you crazy bitch!" Bethany screams as her free hand grabs onto Alex's hair and pulls. My girl honest to God growls and my dick jumps in my sweatpants."This is t
