All Chapters of Wrath: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

JennaThe clouds parted and the sun finally made an appearance. She unlocked the doors and took Jake’s vest off and placed it on the back seat. She pulled her sweater over her head and almost screamed when Junker stood right in front of her.“Trip said you might stop by,” he said.“I’ll head over to see him in a bit.” She didn’t like Junker all that much. He was in his late thirties and he always played with his lip ring while he watched her. It made her skin crawl. He’d never done anything to her or touched her in any way, but she still didn’t like him.“He’d have my hide if I let you walk around alone,” he said. His hand clasped her wrist and he started pulling her away from the truck. She just had enough time to grab Jake’s vest and close the rear door before Junker started walking.Gear, her brother’s VP, stood up from his seat when they stepped under the shade of the large tree where the Reapers were seated. She glanced around but couldn’t see her brother. She wasn’t afraid of th

JakeHe closed the side door behind him and hung his jacket and helmet on the hooks in the mud room. Jenna was sitting at the kitchen table with a cup of coffee in front of her. She didn’t look up and he got the feeling that everything was not fine.He sat down at the kitchen table, looking intently at her. “What’s going on?”“Trip called me,” she said.Jake clenched his jaw. If Trip was going to try and use his sister to get to him, they were going to have problems. “About?”Her shoulders slumped and she sighed. “What’s going on, Jake? I’ve never heard him this worked up before.”“It’s club business.”“Don’t give me that bullshit!” She was pissed off, but it wasn’t his business to discuss, and even if it was, he wasn’t sure if he’d tell her.“Your brother has beef with Buzzer. They’re both pissed at the Warriors over some territory squabble. That’s what I can tell you.”“He told me. You killed the Night Stalkers and the Warriors took over their territory,” she said.“Which has absolu

JakeShadow had checked on the women and none of them had any serious injuries, nothing that needed any of them to go to a hospital. The men had periodically entered the room where the women were to give them some time to get comfortable around them. Jake was standing outside, leaning against the brick wall as Hudson and K-9 talked to the women, listening to their stories and getting their details. Poison took notes, searched for the women’s families so they could start formulating plans.“Take a hike, Weasel,” K-9 said. He shifted on his feet and dragged a hand over his face. “Wrath, I need to tell you something, but you have to stay calm.”“Okay,” Jake said, not liking his tone.“I was talking to one of the girls. She was sold by her brother. She made it very clear that she didn’t want her family to know that she was alive. She’s … fuck … her name’s Chelsea Savage,” he said.Jake’s eyes darkened and he stepped forward, but K-9 pushed him back. “Get out of my fucking way, K-9.”“Hol

JakeEach of the guys had lived at the clubhouse, and now they had nowhere to go. It wasn’t just the men he had to worry about. They had five women with them. It would take time to contact their families and get them back home.“It might be best to stay at the motel for now. They won’t release the clubhouse for maybe another two weeks,” K-9 said.“Maybe this is a good time to relocate,” Jake said. He glanced at the men and got to his feet. “Bandit got us out of the drug and gun trade. The other businesses are all legit. There’s no need to live so far from the borders of Reading.”“If we move locations, we can set up better security. We can choose a location that works for us on all fronts,” Dagger said.“Two miles west is an abandoned warehouse on a six acre lot. We can renovate that warehouse into our new clubhouse and build a bar right in front of it. We lift the walls at the end of the lot and put beams and cameras on them. We’ll install the software to everyone’s phones, so that i

Jake“You’re sure about this?” Jake looked down at the printed document again, wiping a hand over his face.Hudson grinned and leaned his elbows on his knees. “Hamil’s been doing this for a long time. If he says that info’s legit, you can bet your left nut it’s legit. I’d bet your left nut.”Jake grinned. “Why not yours?”“I like my balls where they are,” he said.“You know, Hudson, that doesn’t make me feel any better.”Hudson chuckled. “My point is, you can trust the motherfucker. Now you know who shot up your clubhouse. You’ve got the fucking text messages to prove it. Dominic said he doesn’t expect a favor in return, not even a thank you. Asshole said keeping me here was payment enough.”Jake barked out a laugh. “You want to go to a strip club tonight, Hudson?”Hudson adjusted himself in his pants and grinned. “Fuck yeah. I’ve never gone this long without sex before, and I’m not counting what I did with K-9 in the shower, but I can tell you … he put up a good fight.”The smile fel
