Chapter 14.
Angel POV.
Pain, dull aching pain is the first thing that makes itself known that as well as the constant beeping. I groan, trying to open my eyes. I peel my eyes open and blink to take in my fuzzy surroundings. There is a warm light on over me. The rest of the room is in darkness. NO! I'm not back there.
My breathing becomes harsh, and the beeping gets harsher. A hand grabs mine. I look at the face. The words spoken are like I'm underwater.
"Shhh, princess. I've got you." I blink and my vison starts to clear as I take in her features. Her dark hair, her jade green eyes, the features like my own.
"Momma." My throat is sore and scratchy, my voice raspy as the first tear falls. She bites back a choke as she nods her head. I see the tears glistening in her eyes as she blinks and the tears fall. "Rebel, where's Rebel?" I ask, becoming panicked. I need my girl. I need her close to me.
"She is with your father. It's ok princess, we will find them and make them pay. You didn't deserve this." I remove my hand from hers and she looks pained that I won't allow her to comfort me.
"I want Rebel. I want to go home. I should have never let you all bring me back." I snap as my throat burns and she sobs at my acidic words. All I feel is pain and rage. This happened to me because of Savage and the damn MC. "Princess..."
"That's not my name. Don't ever call me that again. Please mom. I just want my daughter and I want to leave." I say as the tears come faster and faster. I can hear them laughing, feeling their thrusts with each sharp inhale of breath. I can smell their cologne, feel their hands on me, their lips. All three of them touching me. I wince as I try to move, but everything hurts.
"Angel, Rebel is safe with your father. When you are released in a few days, you will be back with her. You need to heal. You are black and blue. She will be scared if she sees you like this. Please, stay still. You have broken ribs." I stop moving as the pain becomes more intense.
She reaches for the button and presses it as a nurse enters the room and I look down at my lap. Knowing what they did to me. I look at my bandaged wrists and I know it happened. I may have shut down, but I know it happened. Sending a message to Savage. Then I see it the tattoo. That's how I will find them.
"Here baby, have a drink." A bottle of water is brought to my lips with a straw and I drink it down. The cool water soothing my dry throat. I lean back as the door bursts open and I jump, screaming as I clutch my ribs.
"Angel, Angel, look at me. I'm so sorry." I screw my eyes shut tightly as I hear my momma roar at him and he is pulled out of the room. I sob, curling into a ball, ignoring the pain as the assault happens in my head again.
"It's ok, he's gone baby, it's ok." I'm stuck in that warehouse. I scream and thrash, seeing the three of them and the man who spoke to me. My body jolts with each hit and I kick out pain shoots up my ribs and my fight-or-flights kicks up a notch.
"Sedate her!" I feel hands hold me down. I scream and roar in panic and pain.
"Angel, breathe. It's all over, it's all over." I begin to relax as my head spins.
"Ryder!" my eyes close and I'm out.
When I open my eyes again, it's morning or maybe afternoon. I'm not sure I look around the room and the disinfectant smell hits me. Ugh!
I'm in a hospital. I look at the side of me and see my momma with her head on the bed and her hand in mine. I look at the sofa under the window and see my brother Nate sleeping. I chuckle seeing his six-foot frame cramped up on a two-seater sofa. His mouth open as his head hangs off the edge.
"Angel," I look from him to my momma as she moves to sit on the bed.
"Momma." Trying to speak hurts my face. I know they did a number on me. I can feel the swelling and my eyes are sore.
"Yeah, baby. I'm here." I tighten the grip on her hand and cry. She hugs me, and I hug her back. I wince at the pain, but I don't care I need her. The one woman in my life that has been my protector since before me and Nate were born.
After the whole incident with our grandfather. Momma and daddy kept us hidden. We were home-schooled and only allowed us to be seen by those they trusted, those that came that day to save us from the man who was a tyrant, Alejandro Rodriguez, my momma's father, the boss of the Cartel. So no wonder these animals didn't know who I was. But that will change soon.
"How long has it been?" I don't want to say since I was taken I want to forget.
"Three days. They had to sedate you. You caused more damage when you woke up. We will get to the bottom of this and you and Rebel are coming home with us. We are not letting you stay in this town." I shake my head. I can't run from this. I know I'm stupid for wanting to stay, but I have work to do.
"No, if I run away, then they have won. I can't let them win, momma. They broke me, they hurt me, I could have died, momma. I'm not running, I'm sick of running. I need Savage momma. I need him. I need to speak to him. Then I am going back to my house, with my daughter, where I can heal." I say to her and she nods her head at me, knowing I will shut everyone out.
"Sis, you don't need to do this." Nate comes closer to me and reaches for me, but I flinch away on instinct. He looks pained as his face falls.
"I'm sorry Nate, I didn't mean to."
"Shhh, it's ok. I would never hurt you, sis. It will take time." He looks heart broken that I won't let him near me, but he understands.
"Momma, does Savage know I'm here?" I ask her and she nods her head.
"Yeah, when you were taken, a worker from the store saw what happened and informed the police, who then informed the MC. He took Rebel with him to the clubhouse. Deanna was there when the police arrived to tell him you were found. He has been here waiting ever since." She says and I'm in shock that it was members of the public that saved me and Rebel.
I nod my head as I look away, wiping the tears from my eyes, not allowing them to fall. I take a breath with difficulty as my ribs scream at me to stop. I clutch my side and sit up as I groan, biting my lip.
"Send him in and give us some privacy, please." I say to her and she looks at me like I've grown three heads. She can see it in my eyes. I'm not the same Angel she raised. That part of me died when I was raped. I'm just a cold shell, an empty husk.
"Ok, baby. I will be outside when you are ready." She kisses me on the head and I flinch slightly and she chokes on a sob. I see the rage in her face and it's not aimed at me. She nods at my brother, who smiles sadly at me and nods his head as they both exit the room.
I lean back and allow myself to break silently. I don't know how long I have been crying when the door opens and I look up, wiping my face, and I wince at how tender my face feels. He moves closer to me and I move away from him, holding my hand up to stop him. "Princess, I'm so sorry. I'm so very sorry." He has tears in his blue eyes and I look at him and glare at him.
;วน:
"Savage, don't come near me. This happened because of you and your MC. It was a message to you. You have fucked with someone and they took their rage out on me. They knew I was connected to you and told me I should have stayed away. Now I'm telling you, stay the fuck away from me and my daughter. I don't ever want to see you or your MC again. I'm done." I say, my voice coming out hard as I look at him with disgust.
"Angel, please ..."
"NO! You bought me here. What happened to me is because of YOU!" I grab the nearest thing and throw it, instantly regretting it as I suck in a harsh breath.
"If I see you or any member of your
MC near me, my daughter, or my home. You will all regret it. Now, do me a favour and fuck off. You have
ет
caused me nothing but pain. Tell Foxy she has won. I don't want you Savage. I have been over you from the moment you fucked that bitch in front of me. You threw me away for that used up cunt. Well, she can have you. Now leave. I mean it. If I see any of your crew, I will kill them.
LEAVE!" I scream at him and he looks defeated and nods his head
before he turns and storms towards
the door.
"I love you Angel and I will be waiting."
"It will never happen, Savage. Move on with your life. Because you play no part in mine." He walks out and I look away as the tears fall again, feeling my momma hug me as I sob onto her chest.
"It's ok baby, let it out. Let it go. We will find who did this to you and I swear to God as my witness we will make them pay." She says all I want to do is go home to my little girl and heal.
Fuck the MC and fuck him.
