Chapter 169

Jax

By the time I reached Daniel’s house, I had been awake for more than twenty hours, and I was running on coffee, anger, and the memory of Ivy’s voice on the phone. She had sounded scared, and Ivy was not the kind of person who scared easily. The two police officers outside the house only made things worse. One stood near the gate while the other remained inside the car, both of them watching the house like they were waiting for something to happen.

    Chapter 169JaxBy the time I reached Daniel’s house, I had been awake for more than twenty hours, and I was running on coffee, anger, and the memory of Ivy’s voice on the phone. She had sounded scared, and Ivy was not the kind of person who scared easily. The two police officers outside the house only made things worse. One stood near the gate while the other remained inside the car, both of them watching the house like they were waiting for something to happen.I got out of the car and walked toward the gate. The officer standing there immediately stepped in front of me. “Can I help you?” he asked. “Ivy called me,” I said. His eyes moved toward the house before coming back to me. “Who are you?” “Jax.” “Jax what?” I stared at him. “Just Jax. She knows who I am.” He didn’t look convinced. “Are you family?” “No.” “Then you can’t go inside.” I glanced at the house. “She called me because she’s in danger. I’m going inside.” His hand moved toward his radio, but before he could say anythin

    Chapter 168 Jax The coffee maker made this sound and then sputtered on the kitchen counter. I stood there in my bare feet, watching the dark liquid drip into the pot, listening to the house settle around me. It was early. Too early for anyone else to be up. The sun had not even started to show through the blinds yet.I liked this time of day. The quiet. The stillness. Just me and the coffee and the soft hum of the refrigerator.My phone buzzed on the counter. I ignored it at first. Probably work. Probably something that could wait until I had at least one cup in my system. It buzzed again. Then a third time.I picked it up and looked at the screen. Unknown number. I almost put it back down. Almost.Something made me answer. Maybe curiosity. Maybe instinct. Maybe just the fact that three calls in a row meant whoever it was really wanted to talk."Hello?""Jax?"The voice hit me like a punch to the chest. I knew it. I had not heard it in years but I knew it. Young. Scared. Trying har

    Chapter 167 Daniel I got everyone outside the front door the way we planned. Ivy had Jade’s hand locked in hers. Their mother stayed half a step behind them like she still thought she could shield both girls with her body if something came at them. The morning light hit hard after the dim house. Two marked cruisers sat at the curb with their lights still turning. I expected Morales to step up, take control, and move us out clean.She did not look relieved when she saw me. She looked alarmed. Her eyes cut from my face to the girls and then straight past me to the street like she was counting threats I had not seen yet.Before I could ask what was wrong she closed the distance fast and spoke low enough that only I could hear it.“Get them back inside. Now.”I did not question her. I turned my head just enough to check the two patrol cars and the men standing by them. That was when it hit me. The officers who arrived were not the deputies Morales normally worked with. I knew most of th

    Chapter 166 Daniel "You don't get to yell at him ," Ivy said, my voice dropping an octave, low and tight and full of gravel. She took a step forward, forcing her to back up until she bumped into the edge of the bed. "You brought us from New York all the way to London so you could introduce them to that piece of trash. You sat in his living room and drank his wine while he bruised your daughter's arms. He spent his night pulling them out of a locked room while you were sleeping in the guest house. So do not stand in my house and talk to him about safety."Her mouth flew open, her face going red, but she couldn't find a single word to throw back. She swallowed hard, looked down at Ivy, and stepped back toward the window, her hands shaking as she clutched her purse to her chest.I dropped back down to my knees next to Jade. The kid was practically blue. She was hyperventilating so hard her ribs were visibly shaking under her t-shirt, her eyes rolling back toward the ceiling."Ivy!" I

    DanielJade went down on her knees right beside the bed, her fingers clawing at the quilt like she was trying to pull the whole mattress to the floor with her. Her chest heaved in these horrible, short bursts that sounded like dry coughing, only there was no air coming back out. Her mouth stayed wide open, her eyes locked on nothing, completely blanked out from pure terror. The sight of her spiraling hit Ivy like a physical blow. Ivy dropped straight down onto her knees in front of her sister, grabbing Jade by the shoulders, but her own hands were shaking so hard she could barely hold on.My phone vibrated in my palm before I could even take two steps toward them. The screen lit up with Morales’s caller ID. I swiped the green button, shoved the phone against my ear, and clamped my other hand over Jade’s shoulder to ground her."Morales, tell me you have a unit already rolling to my street," I said straight into the mic, not even letting her open her mouth first."Daniel, stay calm an

    Chapter 164 Daniel I didn’t answer her. I stood up from the edge of the bed and walked straight to the window that faced the street, staying off to the side so my shape wouldn’t show through the blinds. I put two fingers between the slats and opened a narrow gap, just enough to see out without giving anyone looking in a clear shot of me. The street looked quiet. My truck sat where I left it. The neighbor’s blue sedan was still in their driveway. A couple of cars were parked further down the block the way they always were. Nothing moved. No one stood on the sidewalk. No one sat in a car with the engine running. The photo on my phone said someone had been out there ten minutes ago and the photo was clear enough that I could see the exact angle of my front porch and the way the morning light hit the side of my truck, but right now the street looked empty and that emptiness felt worse than if someone had been standing there waving.I kept the gap in the blinds open with one hand and p

    AvaAnd shit, I did, I straddled him properly , guiding his cock back inside me, slowly at first because I was still tight, still sore from round one, but the stretch felt amazing, making me moan loud as I sank down, taking him all. "Fuck, yes," I gasped, starting to rock, hands on his chest for le

    ~Ava~I dashed out of that hotel room like my ass was on fire, heart pounding so hard I could feel it in my throat, as I was humming under my breath the whole way down the elevator, "I'm getting fucked tonight, I'm getting fucked tonight," like some dumb chant from a bad pop song, but fuck it, I wa
