MELISSA'S POV
"Melissa! Wait!", I heard Alexander's voice but there was no way in hell I was going to wait for him.
I picked up the pace ready to leave but just as I made it out to the parking lot, I was immediately turned by the arm and faced Alexander.
"It's not what it looked like." His eyes looked panicked, and at first it flattered me that he would care that much, but I remembered my words then."What part of 'we're done' don't you understand, Alexander? I don't care what you do with that skank anymore. I hope you had a nice time." I looked up at his hair and it had been ruffled, surely from a quickie in sheets.
What a pig!
I shook my head and turned toward my car, but he stopped me again.
He raised his bandaged hand up, and I instantly felt worry for what happened to him. What the hell did he do?
"I hurt myself, she was just cleaning up the cuts." He watched me, waiting for some type of reaction, but I wasn't going to give him one. I was too stubborn. "It wasn't what you thought," He added."And what did I think?" I held up a hand. "Wait don't answer that. Remember? I. Don't. Care." I stopped him when he opened his mouth to answer.
He sighed. "Melissa, why are you being so fucking stubborn about this? I fucked her one time and all of the sudden you don't want to be with me? What about all those other women from our runs that I've fucked? You didn't bring up with me then, so why now?"
I took a deep breath and fought with every ounce that I had not to scream at him, letting him really have it. Just the fact he brought up the other women that I may or may not have known about, pissed me off even more. He acted like sleeping around was no big deal; that what two people shared together in the bed was just like any other activity to pass the time.
"You don't think any of those other times didn't destroy me? Well, you would be so fucking wrong. I used to lay awake every night wondering what you're were doing, or who you were always with while I was sitting at home all alone! I put up with a lot of your bullshit, Alexander, because I thought I loved you, but it wasn't love at all ....." He flinched at my words. "Then why didn't you say anything sooner? Maybe I would have stopped."
I let out a strangled laugh.
"It would have taken me to say something for you to realize that you're a piece of shit? That you shouldn't fuck other women when you're with someone? Are you fucking kidding me right now?"Unbelievable. I turned and walked toward my car again.
"I didn't mean it like that. I just didn't know it bothered you as much as it did. Most of the old-ladies around here understand their man's needs. As long as...."
I spun around and poked him in the chest. " I know the fucking rules and the understanding they have! But, how can you not think it didn't bother me?! You keep forgetting that I am not just your lady, Alexander! I am actual member of the club, too. I am...." I broke off. Shaking my head as I laughed.
There wasn't anything l could say to shine a light on this for him. "Fine, you want to understand?" I added.
"Yes! I really do! I don't get what the big deal..."
"I fucked Gearhead," I blurted out, knowing that I didn't, I wouldn't have been able to tell him.
His eyes widened as he stepped back. "What. The. Fuck?"
"Hurts, doesn't it?" I cocked a brow at him. I thought I'd feel triumphant when I told him, like I got revenge on him, but it only made me feel sick. The way he looked at me now only made it worse.
"When?" He asked shocked.
"Does it matter..." I snorted.
"When?!" He shouted as his hands fisted up at his sides, making his knuckles crack.
"When I walked in on you and Jane. You never saw me walk in, did you?" He shook his head, his eyes never leaving mine. "I was so angry at you. I wanted to hurt you like you had hurt me," I whispered, afraid to talk any louder.
"Well, you succeed," He coaked as he stared at me for a long moment before he turned and headed toward the clubhouse.
I have never seen Alexander look so destroyed before that moment. I have never realized how much he actually cared about me until that moment. His face said it all, but I shouldn't worry about that anymore. I ended things and that was that. I told him the truth, even if it wasn't as satisfying as I thought it would be.
When I unlocked the car and threw my purse in the front seat, I had a scream and a loud crash come from inside the clubhouse.
Shit! I turned and took off running back inside.
Bar stools were being thrown across the room as my eyes settled at the culprit. Dust. Gearhead. Shit!
"I should kill you!", Alexander shouted at Gearhead, trying to round the pool table to get at him, but Gearhead was dodging him.
"Dude, I am sorry! She came into my room while I slept! I mean, who can say no to that?" When he pointed at me, Alexander met my gaze for a moment before his eyes turned to pure fire. Then he went back trying to get his hands on Gearhead.
Gearhead, AKA Gabe Martinex, was the club's secretary and worked hand-in-hand with me most days. He had been patched into the club for nearly five years now, and served his time thoroughly. Axel drug him through the mud when he was a prospect, and he was in easy target being only five foot, four inches and scrawny at the time. He has since filled in in all the right places. Muscles bulged from his tee shirts and his jeans we're fitting snugger these days against his trong legs. He was the complete opposite of Alexander Smith with his dirty blond hair, dark eyes and goatee.
And he was just about to out-dodge Alexander, but Alexander was quick-witted and threw a pool ball at Gearhead's knee before he jumped over the pool table. Gearhead went down like a sack of potatoes and cried out in pain.
"Dude, what the fuck?!" He was on the floor holding his knee.
"You fucked my girlfriend, you mother fucker!" Alexander boomed.
Then I saw Alexander grab Gearhead's shirt collar as he pulled his arm back and then started to pound him in the face. The sound was awful as Gearhead's bones crunched beneath Alexander's blows. Grunts echoed through the bar. Gearhead got the upper hand as he got up at his feet and punched Alexander straight in the mouth as blood splattered on the wall nearby.
"Hey!" I screamed, making my way to them, but the other club members were quicker and began to pull them apart. They were both breathless, sweaty, and bloody.
"Dude, fuck you! You had a great fucking thing, but you couldn't keep your dick in your pants! You don't deserve her!" Gearhead spat on the ground at Alexander's feet.
"And do you think you deserve her?!" Alexander retorted, his fists still balled up at his sides.
"Maybe I do!" Gearhead held his head up with pride, staring Alexander down and not giving a shit that he was small compared to Alexander's six foot inch stature.
"She's mine," Alexander growled before he lunged at Gearhead again, but the guys held him back.
"What in the hell is going on here?!" Everyone jumped and turned at the sound of Axel Dunkens' deep husky voice filling the room.
He walked up to the bloodied idiots and grabbed them by the shirt collars."Acting like this, neither of you deserve my daughter"
Knock this shit off!" Then he let them go, shoving them apart. "Where the fuck is Melissa, anyway?"The club's eyes all stared behind Axel toward me as he spun and stared me down.
"Melissa. Office. Now!" He growled, crunching debris under his boots as he headed down the hall.
I was right on his tail, panicking about what he was going to say to me. He might be my dad, but he was fucking terrifying when it came down to club business.
MELISSA'S POV. "Melissa, what the hell was that all about? Why was my Sergeant At Arms and the Secretary beating each other to a bloody pulp?" Axel sat behind his desk as he glared over at me."They were fighting over me, dad", I shrugged my shoulders. "Over this shit that happened this morning?" He sighed out his breath, looking frustrated as hell.I shrugged again and moved my gaze to my hands in my lap. "Insorts. I slept with Gearhead a few nights ago, and I told Alexander about it today. I wanted revenge." I stole a peek up at my dad and saw his brows furrowed in surprise. "Revenge? Revenge for what ?", He questioned. "You haven't heard? Alexander fucked Missy. I was simply getting back at him for that."Axel sighed and shook his head. ",Look, Melissa, you had every right to get revenge on your man, but you cheated on him with his brother". "Dad, I don't want to hear your club point of view on this right now. I need to know what you think on this as being my dad. He
MELISSA'S POV"She's really sick, Dad."I had just finished telling him what I had to deal with the night before with Mom. He sighed. "Yeah, Ia know she is, but what do you want me to do about it?""She needs help. Help that we can't give her." I didn't want to see my Mom go down this path any longer.I would love nothing more than to have somewhat of a normal relationship with my Mom again. Right now, she was a shell of her former self and I hated that for her."I know. After tonight, I will look around for some good rehab places and see if I can get her into one of them."I hugged my dad around his stubborn neck. "Thanks, dad.""Yeah, yeah, yeah, now stop with all of this lovey-dovey shit and help me out with this before the guys get here and we have to take off." I smiled as I pulled up a chair and got to work.ALEXANDER'S POV.Running drugs wasn't what this club was founded on, but in this community, we had to do whatever we could to get the income; no matter how much we all hate
Jane walked over , glaring at Melissa before she threw me a wink and smiled."I see you need another beer, honey."I only nodded as she popped the top and slid a fresh beer in front of me. I looked over at Melissa to see her reaction, and found myself disappointed when I saw she was looking straight ahead with no emotion on her face. She wasn't showing any jealousy at all and that bothered me.Normally, she would be throwing daggers at Jane with her eyes as I waited to act if she lunged over the bar.Then she turned to look at me, her tits stretching the material of her shirt."How was the run today?", She asked confidently."Fine. Good. Yeah, it was great," I stumbled over my words.What the hell, man? I was a grown ass man, not a fucking teenager. But damn, she was distracting as fuck right now.Melissa giggled and I nearly lost my shit. Her giggle could ruin me in seconds.Man, I was in trouble tonight. I had to control myself before things worsen."I better go help Gear the keys r
MELISSA'S POV.I was incredibly turned on as Aleksander bit my bottom lip just the way I liked it. He knew me more than even I did sometimes, and right now was one of those times. I felt like my nipples were going to rip holes in my shirt if they weren't pressured soon. But that's what pulled me back to the now. What was I doing?!I was falling back into his damn trap again! I pulled away from Alexander's lips and spun away from him, but he was quick to pull me back to him. His stroking tongue and nipples against my neck drove me wild as I moaned out.Looking up, I saw Jane watching us with evil eyes. Tonight was about making anyone jealous or getting back what was supposed to be mine, but seeing the way Jane watched us, I knew I had a new mission."Give me one more night," Alexander whispered into my ear as my heart ached.I really did want one more night with him too, if only to say goodbye, but seeing Jane made me want to have one more night with him just to prove to Jane that Alex
ALEXANDER'S POVI wasn't sure what was the more difficult at this moment: that I fell sleep with the raging hard-on that I couldn't take care of because I couldn't get Melissa's crying face out of head, or that I was leaving tomorrow and wasn't sure when I would see Melissa again. She made it clear last night that we were done, and I was afraid that she really meant it this time. She was never able to say no to me, but last night she did it with a lot of confidence that l really believed her this time. And that tear sliding down her cheek! Damn it, she was killing me.I strapped my duffle bag to the back of my bike before I looked back to my brothers who came to see me off. They all gave me a slap on the back kind of hug before stepping back to their spots. I wasn't surprised that Melissa hadn't shown up this morning to wish me farewell. It was pretty clear that last night was her goodbye; as much as it is hard to admit it.But then her car pulled into the lot and my heart skippe
MELLISA'S POVJust as i was seated in my office, Gearhead popped his head in the office. "Hey, are you okay." I looked up and smiled. "Sure, why wouldn't I be okay?""Just that Alexander left today and won't be back for awhile." He shrugged."Am fine. That was bound to happen", I shrugged my shoulders.I totally didn't care plus, if I ever thought I was going to get over Alexander, this time apart is what I needed. I had trusted him way back when, so sure that he really and truly wanted me, but I had been wrong. I knew I wasn't a wrong about this. I was going to leave the club and this was another step closer to seeing that happen.My first step was mailing off a package this morning, which included a demo of me singing and playing my guitar, to a music producer.I found in Memphis that was taking a on new talent. I had no idea what was going to come of it, but I would know unless I tried, right?"True, well let me know if you need anything." He turned to leave when I stopped him."A
DRAKE'S POV."Talk to me, Aaron, what the hell is going on?!" I was full of nervous as I walked in the tiny space that would be my living room and kitchen."Jane antagonized Melissa. Oh, man, it's really bad, Alexander."My heart fell into my gut. If anything happened to Melissa, I was going to lose my shit."What happened, Aaron?!" I was getting impatient and very fucking pissed off.Melissa put Jane into a comma. She beat the fuck out of her. I have never seen anything like it, man. Melissa went fucking crazy after what Jane said about you. I don't even think she knows what happened because afterward she looked freaked out. Melissa was white as a ghost."I couldn't believe what I was hearing. I know Melissa was a badass, being a Dunkens and all, but to put someone into a comma? Fuck me."Is she okay? Melissa? Both of them?""I don't know. Do you think you can come back for a night? I know it's such a long fucking drive, but it's fucking nuts around here right now. Pres is back at hi
"Oh, for fuck's sake. We're back to that again?" He grabbed my hip and kept me from going further."Don't do this."I gave him a hard glare. "Why did you come back here?", I asked angrily.His brows furrowed. " What do you mean? I came back to make sure you're okay. What kind of stupid question is that?""I didn't want you to come back. I am fine." This time when I moved, he let me. Deep down, I was disappointed that he let me go again, just once, I wanted him to fight for me but he unfortunately didn't."You're seriously going to push me away again?" He sat up, rubbing his hands over his face. "I just drove five fucking hours to get here." He added while looking disappointedly at me."I just told you I didn't want you to come back! So, you wasted your own damn time, not my fault." I puffed out my chest. "And I am not pushing you away again. The last time I checked, I pushed you away once but you won't let me go! Why won't you let me go?! I want to be happy, but you won't let me!",
