“Do you have a photo of this asshole so that we know who we are looking for?” a guy beside my uncle asks. He’s nearly as big as him but he’s got the brightest green eyes I have ever seen. When I look around the room, I notice two other men and a woman who have the same colour of eyes. There is no mistaking that those are his children. You can’t mix up those eyes for anything.
“I think that I have some on my phone. It’s all in my car,” I say looking at the man with questions in my eyes. Would it kill this group to introduce themselves?
The man sees me looking at him, and the younger woman who has his eyes comes forward and rolls her eyes at everyone.
“Sorry we are being rude. I’m Ella. This big guy here is my daddy Derek and he is the president of the Vicious Snakes. He is also your uncle’s best friend, so don’t worry you’re safe here and there is no way that asshole ex will get within these walls,” she says, and I shake her outstretched hand.
“Thanks, I think. I don’t have much. I have a small bag with a couple of clothes in it and I should probably dump the car somewhere. It’s under my mom’s name, so I wouldn’t put it past her to call it in stolen or something,” I say with a light blush coating my cheeks.
“That’s okay darling. KID!” Bear yells.
Someone comes walking from the other side of the room, but he doesn’t look much like a kid. Sure, he is younger than some of the members, but I can’t help but wonder why he has that name.
“Yeah, Bear?” he says in a low, gravelly voice. Wow, that’s deeper than I thought it would be.
“Get my niece’s bag, will ya? While you are at it, let’s do something about the car. She can get a ride with Sasha back to the house,” he says, and the guy moves outside, no questions asked. Wow, Cool.
“Alright, and we are going to head out and get her some clothes. I’m sure she wouldn’t want to show her face around town in case this is the first place he looks,” a woman named Stacey says as she comes and grabs Ella and another woman by the hand already ready to head out to the stores.
Sasha looks at them with a small smile on her face. “Good idea. Sophie dear, just let the girls know your sizes and they will get everything you need. Girls, don’t forget to grab stuff for the bathroom, and shoes. She certainly can’t go walking around in only one pair of shoes. I mean, I love the strappy sandals with the very baggy sweats look, but you will need runners or something more comfortable,” she says giving me a wink.
I can’t help but blush. I just grabbed the first shoes I could find. All I could think about was getting out of there and nothing about the way I looked. I realize that strappy sandals with a little heel look pretty ridiculous, but I have nothing else.
I can’t help but get teary eyed at the women who are already walking out the door ready to help me. I had only just met these people. How can they be so nice?
Chapter Two
Trigger ‘Colton’
I stood in the background listening as this woman tells us her story. I have to hold the rage that’s burning inside of me because I’m likely to go out right now and kill that mother fucker for laying his hands on her. Well I’m at it, I would like to pay a visit to her worthless mother.
Who could treat their child like that? She was looking for someone to have her back and look out for her, but she got turned away and kicked around for it.
Even with the bruise on her face and baggy clothes, she’s still the most gorgeous woman I have ever seen.
Why would anyone want to mark-up that perfect body? I have no doubt that she’s hiding a stunning body under all of those clothes.
I try not to spend too long looking at her body and checking her out. I don’t want anyone to catch me, or worse, have Bear catch me. I know that he’s a mean fucker who would have no problem laying one into me for the way I’m looking at her, though she does look like she would be worth it.
Once everyone starts getting stuff for her and making sure she’s comfortable, I decide to head to my room. I need to clear my head after seeing her.
I can tell that she’s sweet, maybe too sweet for the club life, but she’s also fucking strong to put up with what she did and courageous for leaving her situation and coming here. She had no idea what kind of people we were, or
