Chapter 11: The Claiming
Today Psycho and I will claim each other. I think it is funny that not only will Lightening's members be here but knuckles as well.
At the breakfast table, Candy's brother asked where she was at. "Psycho looked over at him. After we eat, we will go to my office."
Inside the office, Psycho looked over at Candy's brother. He laid the knife on the table between them. "Do you recognize this knife?"
"It is Candy's. I bought it for her three years ago. How did you get it?"
"Well, that is an interesting story. She came into our bedroom in the middle of the night and tried to kill Tara."
"Currently she is locked in our cells until we can deal with her. She will remain there until Tara, and I get back from our honeymoon."
"Do you have a problem with that?"
"No, Psycho I do not have a problem with that. She is a grown woman. She was raised in the club. She knows the laws and now she will face the consequences."
"That is good to know."
We all walked out of the office and ran into Donna and Revenge arguing over Bella. "What is going on here, I asked?"
"He thinks Bella will be taken care of by himself and the members while we are on our honeymoon. I told him that Bella would be taken care of by me."
"Well, Donna you can stay here and all of you can keep Bella safe."
"Now, we have to get ready for the claiming."
While we all dressed, the food was being carried outside and plugged into the sockets along the walls. We all were standing in our places to be married.
"Finally, I am married, legally, and claimed biker style. I looked over at Psycho and kissed him. I am finally yours Psycho."
"Yes, and I belong to only you, Tara. Forever Psycho told me."
I was sitting on the hill and watched as Psycho claimed, Tara. Now he has not only my child but Tara.
I was a fool to think she was like her sister Ruth. She isn't. She is a wonderful mother. I was angry about what happened. I rode back to my club and the one person I didn't want to see was that bitch.
"Ruth, what the hell are you doing here?"
"I thought we could talk."
"I don't think so. We have nothing to talk about. You did all the talking when you spread your legs for your sister's husband. And you have nothing to show for it."
"At least when I fucked your sister we have a daughter from that."
"And you don't have that daughter. Tara was smart. She can outsmart all of us. After all, I fucked all her boyfriends and her husband."
"Look where that got me."
"Not all of them you didn't."
"What are you talking about?"
"Remember, Psycho the one who nearly broke your wrist. The one that refused to fuck you?"
"What about him?"
"He just claimed Tara. He is her husband."
I started laughing. "I can see it in your eyes. You want to fuck him, don't you? All because he claimed Tara."
"Your hate for Tara will get you killed someday. If you don't change your ways. In fact, I know so many presidents that want to do that right now."
"Ruth, you have caused so much shit in this town and the two towns over everyone wants you dead. If I was you. I would leave this state."
"Now get the fuck out of my clubhouse. And don't ever come back."
I stood up and walked out the door. I got into my car and sat thinking. Tara hates me, dad and even mom hate me, most if not all the bikers hate me and they all wish I had never been born.
I started my car and drove to the motel. When I walked in the door of my motel room I closed it so mom and dad didn't hear me.
I lay on the bed and then I heard dad's voice. "I have three bikers who want to use Ruth tonight."
"No, mom said."
"Wait until you hear the price and what they want?"
"Fine how much?"
"Just for tonight, $25,000"
"If we sell her to the president, $100,000"
Mom won't sell me. Then I heard her tell dad. "Sell her to the president. Then we can be rid of her whoring ways and causing trouble for us."
I sat up in my bed. I could not believe what I was hearing. My parents want to sell me to some president."
I jumped up and packed my bags. They don't know about the money I held back from the men they sold me to for sex, and the money I made when stripping.
I have that much in the bank. I snuck out the door and got into the car. I started it and drove from the motel room. I headed to the bank and took out $25,000 and left town.
I arrived in California and got a motel room. I looked for stripping jobs and found one. I went to the strip club. I found it was owned by some bikers.
I got the job and I start tonight. I would be dancing for most of the night. I need to earn more money so that I can open up a shop selling baby items.
I had been dancing all week and in tips made $69,000 in 5 nights. I would say in about a month's time I will have enough money to buy a building and start my shop up. I love sewing and quilting.
Back at the motel her mom and dad were furious. They had to tell the bikers that Ruth was no longer in town. They had to find work and make enough money to get an apartment.
They heard that Tara had been claimed by Psycho and knew they would never get within five feet of her. Tara's father is scared of Psycho.
"We will stay out of Tara's life. Enough damage had been done and there is no repairing the relationship with Tara."
"We can ask for some money. Ruth's mom said."
"No, we will not. She should never have been paying for you or anyone. I should not have done it. And I will not ask her for money. She will refuse anyway."
"I think we need to leave town and never come back. So we are moving to Florida. This weekend."
Back at Psycho's clubhouse, everyone was making a fuss over Bella. She is a very beautiful little girl. And the most protected. A prospect ran into the room screaming to get Bella into the safe room.
As Sara, and Donna ran to the safe room, Revenge ran with Bella in his arms. Just as they made it gunshots rang through the clubhouse.
"Son of a bitch Renegade screamed."
Gas was thrown into the club and five people walked inside. Members lay around shot and wounded. Revenge heard a female voice shout out to find that baby.
"She is not here. one of the men yelled back."
"She has to be here somewhere. The female voice said."
I watched as the men walked toward the door followed by the female. I waved my hand toward the door and the members raised their guns shooting them.
Just as the female turned to shoot me, I shot her in the shoulder making her drop the gun. She tried running for the door but was tackled by Renegade.
"I turned her over and ripped the mask from her face."
"Why, Ruth? Why try to kill a baby?"
"I left town you know. But the more I thought of my sister having my fiancee's child the more pissed I got. I want that kid to die."
"You started this shit. Not Tara. You fucked any boy or man she was interested in. Not her fault your boyfriend found out about fucking Tara's first husband and broke it off with you."
"Blame yourself."
"Lock her in the shed and send the doctor to remove the bullet and make her feel every bit of pain."
"You will die when Tara and Psycho come back in two weeks."
"Now get this place cleaned up before Psycho and Tara get back."
I walked to the room and opened the door. I looked over Sara and Angel, while Renegade looked Donna over to make sure they were not hurt.
"I think you all should stay here until Psycho and Tara get back. It is safer."
"We agree. We will sleep in Angels' room to make sure."
"I will have two cots put in there."
I sat down at the table and took a drink of beer. I am angry that bitch sister of Tara's tried to kill Angel. She just can't stand for Tara to be happy.
I walked to the shed and opened the door. I looked at Ruth. I walked around her as she looked at me.
"You really are a whore. And a bitch. You just hate it when Tara is happy. As for you wanting to kill Angel Marie because your ex-fiance fucked Tara."
"Well, you just had that coming to you. After all, you never could keep your legs closed. But what you just did and tried to do. There is no excuse for that."
I brought my fist back and punched her in the face. I broke some teeth and blood ran down her face. "Listen here you no good fucking bitch. You tried to kill a baby. You really are one sick bitch."
"I for one can't wait to see what Tara does to you when she returns home. She is going to take her frustration and anger out on you for everything you ever did to her."
"I will enjoy watching you suffer, Ruth. You are going to feel the physical pain that Tara felt. And believe me, you won't be enjoying yourself this time."
"You will die before she finishes with you. And then I will personally shove a thick stick up your ass and set your body on fire. Only I will ask her to keep you alive."
"That's right Ruth, I will make you feel that stick go up your ass and you burning."
"You can't do that."
"Oh, but yes I can and I will."
I turned around and walked to the light turning it off. "Think about it."
I then shut and locked the doors. I walked into the club and sat down. I wanted to kill that bitch with my bare hands. I looked up to see Sara putting Angel in the highchair.
Then Donna walked out with food for Angel. I watched as she feed the baby. I pulled Sara over to me. "Sara, will you go out to dinner with me?"
"Yes, I will go out without."
"Tomorrow?"
"What time?"
"7 pm."
"I will be ready"
I let go of her wrist and she pulled the chair out next to me and sat down. I sighed in relief. I will make her mine. I have watched her since she came to live with Lena.
She is beautiful, kind, and supportive and she agreed to help raise a child that was not hers. I know she is the one I want to have children with.
I never thought I would find the woman for me. Then she appeared out of nowhere. Stepped right into my heart. She stood up to the bad situation and headed straight to the safe room without arguing.
I think being married to Sara will be the best thing that I ever do. This woman is always smiling and she enjoys life.
I knew that Renegade had already asked Donna to go out to dinner with him. It is going to be perfect. I looked over at Angel. She had finished eating and Donna washed her face and hands before lifting her from the chair.
Then Renegade washed the high chair and put it against the wall. When he finished he followed Donna to the nursery. About an hour later they walked into the bar.
