Aces MC: Jayden Part 14

I felt sick and incredibly stupid, I'd lived the last two years of my life in fear that if I stepped out of line or ran away that harm would come to my sister. I shook my head disappointed with myself, that I'd been taken for a fool.

Jayden sighed, "Don't beat yourself up Sam, we can all say what if but that won't help you move on with your life, I'm proof of that."

"What the f.u.c.k has gone on here?" I heard the booming voice of a man as he entered the house followed by another man wearing the same leather jacket.

"Duke I can explain everything." The man with the ponytail said as he stepped forward.

"Good because I'm waiting Justice."

"No let me or Jayden explain, it's nothing to do with Whip, Justice or Hound they're just family looking out for Jay."

"I don't care too much for family sentiments to be honest, I just want to know what's gone on." I watched as the group stood around uncomfortably under his scrutiny, "Well, either of you start talking." He glared at Jayden and CJ.

Jay let out a deep sigh, "This is my girlfriend Sam." Jay wrapped his arm around my waist and pulled me in close. "She experienced some difficulties with a group of blokes, and we've dealt with them this evening."

"And is this one of them?" he nodded towards Richmond on the floor.

"That's all my own doing they're not responsible for him." I wanted to let him know so CJ and Jay didn't get told off for killing someone although I'm sure they wouldn't be too bothered.

"That's fine sweetheart, you've done a good job. Was he responsible for your face?" The smaller of the two men asked.

I nodded, "He was going to rape me, I had to do whatever it took to stop him."

"And I agree, you don't need to justify your actions." Duke stated before placing his hands on his hips and letting out a loud sigh. "Can you understand why I've got the hump guys?" he asked the group.

I was a little confused as to who he was in the first place but he seemed to be in charge, that's probably why he had the hump because he wasn't consulted.

"If you don't mind me asking, how did you find out?" CJ asked boldly.

"The jungle drums of the clubs are in full use this evening. Woods told me and considering this all kicked off at a family party around Hound's house, I'd say a little sparrow has been whispering." The group sn.i.g.g.e.red regarding a private joke apart from the old man who looked more confused than me.

"Okay quieten down, have you decided what you want to do Sam?" Duke asked walking over to Jayden and myself.

I looked at Jay before returning my attention to Duke, "What do you mean?"

"Well we have one dead body. If you don't mind your story being publicised by the press and going to court then I'll call the police now and they can sort everything out, but if you want to put everything behind you and go home then I'm happy for my guys to take care of him." He gestured to Richmond sprawled on the floor.

I hadn't thought about it to be honest. I didn't want everything dragged through the mud but I needed justice for Leanne.

"They killed Leanne," I whispered quietly to Jayden and I felt his hand tighten around my waist.

"I don't want to rush your decision but you need to decide soon as the police will question why they weren't called sooner."

I nodded my head understanding what he was saying but I'd already made my decision, "I'm going to inform the police."

"Okay boys you heard the lady, I want you all out. Diesel and I will stay and explain the three p.u.s.s.ies outside in the van." Duke winked at me before he turned to usher the rest of the group out of the house.

"Are you sure about this Sam?" Jay asked softly.

I nodded my head, "I've never been so sure of anything in my life."

Jayden wrapped his arms around me tightly and kissed my forehead before looking longingly into my eyes, "I'll support you with every decision you make babe."

"Thank you."

"For what?" he asked unsure of what I was thanking him for.

"For being you."

Epilogue.

CJ.

I stood back away from the lowering of the coffin, I didn't know the young girl and it seemed rude for me to be there watching her burial. I was at a safe distance so I could take calls and answer any messages as there were issues with deliveries at the gym.

"So how many have been delivered?" I asked annoyed that the supplier had got the delivery wrong again.

"Just five crates." Reece answered.

"For f.u.c.ks sake, it should've been fifty not five." The drinks order for the vending machines were wrong yet again. I didn't have any of the paperwork on me but I was going to have a s.h.i.+t attack when I got back to the gym later on this afternoon.

"Okay, so does the paperwork read right?"

"Yeah it has five crates on that but because it's such a low amount they've charged us for delivery also."

"I thought they would, right I'll sort it out when I get back." I hung up and realised I had a message from Duke asking me to give him a call.

I let out a sigh as I pressed his number, I was trying to sit here looking inconspicuous but I was starting to look like a dealer. I sn.i.g.g.e.red to myself as I waited for him to answer.

"CJ".

"You wanted to speak to me?"

"Yeah, how's it going your end?" He asked sounding concerned.

"All good, there aren't many people here though which is a shame." Apart from Sam and Jay, there were only three other people present.

"We tried to find more family but because she was in foster care, there wasn't anyone of importance let alone people that wanted to attend."

"I know, it's just a bit s.h.i.+t. Is that all you wanted me for?"

"Yeah, what time you setting off?"

"Well Jay and Sam are heading to her parents house so I'll leave them to it, I just wanted to stick around for a bit to see if they needed me."

"Okay, give me a call when you're back."

"Will do, right I've just got another text mate I'd better go, I've got problems with the stock at the gym."

"Not a problem mate, stay safe."

"And you." I hung up and pressed my messages icon.

"What now?" I said aloud as I pressed the unread message from a number I didn't recognise.

Can we please talk? Keira x.

Woods.

The drive home from the cemetery was worse than the service itself. Lauren was a quiet young lady, she preferred reading and nights in front of the television rather than socialising with friends, this was something my parents appreciated as she never used to cause them any trouble, but since their deaths, she'd become worse. Lauren had cut herself off completely, she rarely left the house and she hadn't used her mobile since the night of the fatal accident.

We pulled up outside my house and I turned off the engine and sat still, hoping that the uncomfortable silence between us would make her fill the void. Lauren continued to sit in exactly the same position as she had since we left the car park at the cemetery and looked out of the side window so I couldn't see her face.

"Are you okay? I know that's a stupid question on a day like this but I just want to know that you're alright Lauren." I removed my seatbelt and turned towards her, "I know things are difficult but I'm trying Lauren, I'm really trying. I miss them as much as you but this is when we need to be strong and stick together." She continued to look out of the window but she moved her hand and it looked as if she wiped a tear from her face and I breathed a sigh of relief.

Lauren was yet to grieve, I'd spoken to Doc regarding this and he informed me that the way she was dealing with our parents deaths was completely normal and that people deal with grief in different ways. To my knowledge she hadn't cried, it had been two weeks since that horrific night and the tears were only just coming.

"I know it's difficult Lauren, never in my wildest dreams did I think that I'd be living with my fourteen year old sister at the age of twenty-four but we're gonna get through this. I've spoken to Duke and Diesel and I'm allowed to take as much time as I want off from the club, so that I can spend quality time with you."

My phone vibrated indicating that I'd received a text but I ignored it. "Lauren please talk to me, I really want this to work out."

Lauren turned around to face me with her tear stained cheeks, "I don't want to be a burden Mark."

I looked at he in wonder, she was my little sister in fact she was the only family I had left, there was no way she would ever be a burden to me. "Lauren what makes you think that?"

My phone vibrated again, Lauren looked to where the sound was coming from and gave me a small smile.

"I know you have a busy life Mark I'm not stupid, you won't want a fourteen year old hanging around I'll cramp your style."

"What do you know? My life is actually quite boring, so you being around may even help it to become a little more exciting."

Lauren rolled her eyes and smirked and this was the first normal interaction we'd had in two weeks.

"I promise that I will love and support you in everything that you want to do, just like mum and dad would have, and nothing and no one is going to ever come between that." Lauren looked at her clasped hands contemplating what I'd just said.

"Look at me Lauren," she turned to face me. "I mean what I said, you come first over everyone."

My phone vibrated for the third time, Lauren rolled her eyes and unfastened her seatbelt to exit the car. "We'll see," she shouted over her shoulder and shut the door to walk towards my house.

I removed my phone from my pocket and swiped the screen.

Hi babe, I'm h.o.r.n.y do u wanna meet tonight?

I'm naked and waiting for you in bed.

I can't wait to suck your hard c.o.c.k xx.

I felt a stirring in my jeans as I read the last text, and grabbed my c.o.c.k to adjust it. I'd been chasing Lydia for two months and she'd chosen tonight of all nights to get in touch. I brought my hand to my forehead and rubbed it as I read the messages again and sighed as I turned my phone off and returned it to my pocket. There was only one female I'd be spending my time with from now on, and that was my little sister.
