All Chapters of The biker who broke fate: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Maya spent the rest of Thursday at the hospital with her mom and Sophie. The doctors ran more tests but kept saying the same thing. Exhaustion. Dehydration. Stress. Her mom needed rest which was impossible when she had bills to pay and two daughters to support.Dominic drove them home around nine that night. He dropped Sophie at their mom's apartment first then took Maya back to the clubhouse because going to her dorm still didn't feel safe. Maya was too tired to argue about it. Too tired to think about Vanessa's demand or the Vipers' threats or anything except crawling into bed and sleeping because she was exhausted.She didn't sleep though. She lay awake thinking about impossible choices. About her mom's job hanging by a thread. About the text from the Vipers saying she'd lose both if she chose wrong. About how her entire life had turned into a nightmare she couldn't wake up from.Friday morning came too early. Maya dragged herself out of bed at five thirty because her shift at the

Maya stared at the texts on her phone while her whole body went cold. The Vipers had been watching them. Had seen them kiss. Had photographed them or recorded them or somehow documented that private moment on the overlook. Nothing was private anymore. Nothing was safe."Let me see." Dominic took the phone from her shaking hands. His jaw tightened as he read the messages. "Monday noon. That's three days from now.""They want me to meet them alone." Maya's voice came out thin. "On campus where there are witnesses. That doesn't make sense.""It makes perfect sense. They want to prove they can get to you anywhere. That my protection doesn't mean anything." Dominic handed her phone back. "You're not going.""I wasn't planning to." Maya wrapped her arms around her chest. "But what if they come after me anyway? What if showing up or not showing up doesn't matter?""Then we make sure you're never alone." Dominic walked back to his bike. "Starting now. I'm taking you to the hospital then I'm s

Maya froze, staring at the gun in the Viper's hand that was pointed at her. Her brain stopped working. Her legs wouldn't move. Everything slowed down like she was watching it happen to someone else. She froze out of suprise."Gun." Jake's voice cut through the silence. "Move. Now."Dominic grabbed Maya and blocked her behind hiim so fast she stumbled and also fell. Connor and Jake stepped forward creating a wall between her and the Vipers. Students around them started screaming. Someone dropped their coffee. Books scattered across the floor as people screamed away.Alot of chaos was going on at that moment.The tall Viper kept the gun pointed at the ground but his finger was on the trigger. He smiled at Maya over Dominic's shoulder."Relax Blackwood. I'm not going to shoot her." His voice was calm like he was not holding an armour. "Not here anyway. Too many witnesses.""Put the gun away." Dominic's voice was steel. "Now.""Or what? Are you going to start something right here on campus

Maya banged on the door until her fists started to hurt. "Let me out. Please just let me out."Nobody answered. She pressed her ear against the wooden door and heard voices downstairs but couldn't recognize the words. The sound of motorcycles starting up the sound filled her ears drum through the window. They were leaving. Going to the Vipers without her.She ran to the window and looked down. The parking lot was full of Iron Wolves mounting their bikes. At least fifteen of them. Dominic was in front on his Harley. Jake and Connor were by side. They looked like an army preparing to march down a war zone.Maya banged on the window but nobody looked up. The roar of engines drowned out any sound she made. She watched helplessly as they pulled out in formation. Watched Dominic lead them toward the street. Watched them disappear around the corner."No no no." Maya sank to the floor with her back against the wall. "This can't be happening."She'd made everything worse by trying to help. If

Maya woke up on the couch in the clubhouse with a blanket she didn't remember grabbing to cover over her body. Sunlight came in through the windows. Her neck hurt from sleeping in a weird position on the couch. Her mouth was tasteless.She sat up slowly and looked around. The main room was empty except for Connor asleep in a chair near the door. Empty beer bottles covered every surface. Someone had tried to clean up but gave up halfway through.The events of last night came crashing back at her. The Vipers. The standoff. Dominic coming home bloody but alive. Her breakdown in the parking lot. She remembered eating something. Remembered people talking around her. Then nothing. She must have passed out from exhaustion.Maya's body ached as she stood up. She needed to pee. Needed water. Needed to brush her teeth. She walked quietly past Connor toward the bathroom trying not to wake him.The bathroom mirror showed her exactly how rough she looked. Hair sticking up everywhere. Mascara smudg
