“Let’s drink this coffee and then we can head downstairs,” Declan says.
The room is packed. I’m glad that they have a big clubhouse since there are so many people here. They said it was going to be a big meeting, but this is bigger than I could even imagine.
I give Ella, Danielle, and Katy a big hug when I see them.
It’s only moments later that Starla is walking in with her father, and I give her a hug too.
We all sit on one side of the room. Blake and Declan are on either side of me. Damien is next to us holding Ella in his lap.
I tell them everything that happened from the moment I left the coffee shop, and everyone goes down the line telling their story.
Ella’s story is about the same as mine. Cutter had enough time to trick her like he did with me before they realized that I was missing.
I look at the men in the room and see a man from the Twisted Eagles MC. When I see him staring hard at Danielle, I begin to wonder if she’s his daughter.
I spend lots of time looking back and forth between them and I don’t know for sure if I’m starting to notice a resemblance or if my mind’s just making it up in my head.
This is a very emotional meeting. Once all our stories are out there, the women leave the room so that the men can discuss the next course of action because none of us need to know that. We just need to be kept safe.
We head outside of church and see that Lily has made us a big meal. She smiles when she sees us. “Olivia, Sophie, and Sasha are taking care of the little ones right now. I know that you guys need to be fed and I’m sure you ladies want to check on your girl.”
“Yeah, I heard she’s resting, but I would like to see with my own eyes that she’s okay,” I say softly.
“I owe that woman big time. What she did for dad…” Ella says trailing off.
Lily’s eyes fill up with tears. “Yeah, that woman risked her life to save my man and I’m forever grateful.”
“She’s definitely been through hell,” Danielle murmurs.
Lily’s eyes soften. “You all have been through your own hell. We will make sure that she gets the help she needs. You all focus on healing yourselves. Let’s get you fed. They should be in there for awhile. Once the meeting is over, we can take you to her. I’d do it myself, but there is no way that you ladies are going to leave a brother’s sight for a long time,” he says gesturing to the door. I look and see Shield standing there watching us. He’s trying to give us as much privacy as possible, but it’s still kind of creepy how he is just staring.
Everyone eats in silence and we wait while the men finish up their meeting.
It isn’t over yet.
Not until Cutter is caught.
Chapter Sixteen
Bullet
Sitting down and listening to the women describe everything that they had been through with this sick fuck has rage building inside of me.
I could see anger from every single man in church when they all heard what this Charles guy did to our girls.
Once we hear their stories, the women are sent outside. They don’t need to know anything else.
“That fucker thinks he can mess with us!” one of the other presidents says angrily.
“Don’t worry. We have him in the basement along with two of his men. We can all have our fun once this is over,” Derek says.
A bunch of evil smiles take over each and every one of the presidents’ faces.
I’d love to get in on that action, but this is somehow personal, resulting from something that happened in their past.
“Who is this Danielle that spoke up? She looks familiar,” the president of Twisted Eagles asks.
Derek looks at his old friend. “She is a friend of one of our Old Ladies. She lives across the street with their other friend. She and Katy thought that she was just in the wrong place at the wrong time, but the women seem to think that she might be connected to someone in one of the clubs because he called her a club princess too.”
The guys face pales. “Y-you mean?” he asks hesitantly.
Derek nods his head slowly. “We think so.”
“What’s her mothers name?” he asks.
“Go get Danielle. We have a question to ask her,” Derek asks Trigger who nods his head.
Danielle comes in seconds later, visibly shaking.
“You wanted to ask me something?” she says softly.
Derek nods his head giving her a small smile. “Yeah sweetheart. What’s your mother’s name?”
“I-It’s Robyn West,” she says, looking at the Twisted Eagles president who turns even more pale than he was before.
“Fuck,” he curses.
“I’m guessing that makes you my father, right?” she asks.
He nods slowly, his eyes closing. “Yeah, why didn’t she tell me?” he looks at her like she might have all the answers.
Danielle shakes her head. “I’m not sure. She just told me that she needed to keep me safe.”
He gets a look of anger on his face. “Why would you need to be safe from me? I’m your father, I would have kept you safe.”
“I-I don’t know, you would have to ask her,” she says softly.
“Call her. I want her here now,” he growls out.
She nods her head and grabs her phone.
“Hey mom… No, I’m fine…I need you to come and visit me…because I have something I need to tell you… why can’t I come there?... Oh well I can’t afford a plane ticket and I want
