Chapter 20
Ryan/Buzz
I left the police station a few minutes later carrying my belongings, minus my cell and laptop. I stood on the sidewalk deciding which direction to take, when a motorcycle pulled up beside me. A guy got off the back and stood in front of me. He was older, probably around mid 40’s, he had long greying hair tied at the back of his neck. He had a black leather vest without anything underneath. The vest said ‘Ink’ and then ‘Club President’ under it, as he turned back to grab something out of the seat, I could see the back. It had a skull emblem with a crown on the skulls head, and it read ‘Titan King’s MC’ I was watching this guy ‘Ink’ as he turned around again, this time he was holding a bottle of water, which he took the lid off and emptied the contents down his throat. He then looked me dead in the eye. “Ryan Cobain. Come with me.” I stepped bac
Chapter 21JuliaI had been living back in North Carolina for almost a year now. After I finished my degree at Texas, James and I decided that I would move back home to be near each other after. After the year we had, being together was best for us both. I was moving in with him in his condo until I found a job. I had been interviewing in a few different places round North Carolina, it was a pretty big place with 10 large towns and around 700 small ones! There are around 10 million people in this state. Our town was one of the small ones. Less than 5,000 people and that was it. I wasn’t ready to live in a small town yet. I wanted to be in a big city whilst I was young, then when I got married and had kids, then I would move to a small town like Hollingbroke. That was where I was living now with my brother. I had a few job interviews coming up in some of the larger cities here, Greensboro, Charlotte and Raleigh,
Chapter 22Julia1 year laterI had just left work and was heading to my car when my cell started ringing.“Hello?”“Julia, it’s Ink, there’s been a shooting. At the club. Tank has been hit. He is on his way to hospital now. You need to get your ass down here now!”I dropped my phone, I couldn’t breathe. No. No not again, I couldn’t lose him too. Tears filled my eyes as I bent down to grab my cell. I unlocked my car and drove straight to the hospital. I arrived at the hospital in record time. I left my car parked up outside the hospital, I would move it later. I didn’t care about how much the ticket would be. I ran inside, asking for someone to direct me where I was going.“My brother has been bought in; he was shot!” I cried to her, “Ok sweetheart, take a breath, I will find out where he is.” I nodd
Chapter 23Buzz“Julia? What the fuck are you doing here?” I demanded.“James is my brother… Why are you here?” She was as equally fucking shocked as I was.“Fuck! Your brother James, is Tank.” It hit me like a ton of fucking bricks. For the last year, I had been mates and drinking with my ex-girlfriend’s big brother and had no fucking idea. This is why I run background fucking checks! I was so pissed at myself for not doing that and now I’m fucking blindsided.“Oh my god. You’re Buzz.” She said, flopping back down on the chair behind her. I looked behind her at Tank, who had woken up and was very much aware of who the fuck I was to Julia. “You’re Ryan?” he shouted, wincing at the pain it caused him. “You broke her fucking heart!” “She left me! I didn’t fucking do anything!” I a
Chapter 24BuzzI went back into the hospital to see Tank before I went home. “Tank?” I knocked on the door as I opened it. “Hey man, how is my little sister?” He asked. “She’s fine, she’s gone back to her place to get some stuff so she can stay in your condo.” “Yeah, she said she had got some time off work so she can stay and look after me. So, what’s going on between you two now? I still can’t believe the guy who broke my little sister’s heart is a friend of mine.” “I know, I can’t believe the girl I am in love with is related to you either” I laughed. “I’m taking her on a date tonight. She wants to go slow and start at the beginning, so I’m gonna book us a table somewhere and then take her somewhere after that.” “Sounds good, as long as it’s not back to my place. I’m all for bein
Chapter 25Julia“No, please don’t go Ryan. I need you.” I said breathlessly. I hadn’t planned on this; I hadn’t prepared or anything! I mean, I had at least shaved my legs, but that was about it. Ever since I saw him in the hospital room, I hadn’t stopped thinking about him. I couldn’t let him leave, let him leave me again.I pulled him in to the house with me and closed the door behind us. Ryan took me in his arms again, lowering his head down to me. Our lips joined together in an earth-shattering kiss. He wrapped his arms around my waist, sliding down to my butt. He squeezed, then lifted me up. I wrapped my legs around his body, as he led me further into the house. “Which room?” He asked, pulling away, but only an inch from my mouth, “second door on the right” I added, equally as breathless as he was. He carried me into the bedroom, laying me
Chapter 26Julia6 months laterRyan and I had been living together for a few months now. After we reconciled, we decided it would be easier for me to move back to Hollingworth to be with him. He had more to lose by moving than I did. I got a new job which was a lot closer to where we are now, and then we bought our first house together, a little two bedroom close to James. I loved it. You opened the front door, and you were in the lounge. It was an open plan downstairs, with a dining table just behind the sofa, and the kitchen next to that. We had bookshelves filling on of the walls with all my books. I really loved reading, so this was definitely my favorite part.We had been at the club tonight, we spend a few nights there a week now, although we don’t sleep there anymore. It was late by the time we got home, Ryan opened the door and noticed the light was on. “Didn’t you turn
Chapter 27Buzz“Julia! Julia wake up baby… I need you to open those beautiful eyes for me, so I know you’re ok. Julia please baby, open your eyes.” I begged. I had only just woken up myself. After I watched what that cunt with a death wish had done to my girl, I completely lost it. I was screaming and shouting at him, threatening him. Of course, I still couldn’t move so it’s not like I could fucking do anything just yet. I fucking would though, I had cameras all over our house. There was no way they weren’t on film.“Shut him up will you, he’s giving me a headache.” One of the men ordered. The same guy who had hurt Julia, walked over to me with a grin on his face. “You think I’m fucking scared of you, cunt?” I asked, smirking back. “You just wait to see what I do to you when I get my hands on you. I won’t need my brothers for this one, I&
Chapter 28BuzzI didn’t even hear Ink and a few other brothers arrive until they got in between us. Ink stepped between us. “That’s enough!” He bellowed. “Are you fucking stupid? Why the fuck are you fighting with each other?” Tank stepped forward “he should have been protecting my fucking sister!” “So, let’s find out what happened because we both know damn well that that he would rather save your sister’s life than he would his own.” Ink argued. “Buzz… you wanna fill us in here?” My jaw was fucking killing me, but I had to try and tell them.“We got in from the club and I noticed the lights were on. I told Julia to wait outside while I checked the house. As soon as I walked through to the kitchen, a fist came at me, knocking me out. I don’t remember anything else until I heard Julia. She was begging me to wake up. When I open
