Where I Belong

By the time we arrived at the clubhouse it was dark. Ally detoured and took the long way home and to be honest I'm glad she did. The longer it took us to get home the longer it kept me from getting my head chewed off. "It's really quiet" Ally whispered from beside me as she parked the car.

"It'll be fine" I said trying not to think about the way my stomach was churning. Just then the clubhouse door swung open revealing a very pissed off Blaze who way heading our way.

"I'm so dead" Ally cried hitting the button on the dashboard making the car doors lock automatically.

That definitely wasn't going to help the situation.

"Open the fucking doors" He spat voice like venom as the words rolled of his tongue.

As my hand moved shakily towards the button I pushed it the click letting me know they were no longer locked. I think now maybe I had gone to far I was afraid of him. He's always frightened me a little but I've pushed him to far this time. Ripping the door almost off its hinges I felt his rough hands pull the seat belt off me. "You" He spat pointing at Ally "Fuck off" Like a puff of smoke she was gone, running off into the clubhouse without a glance backwards. "Put your hands around my neck" He grunted as he slid his hands under my bum and lifted me from the car.

Silence

He didn't speak one word as he carried me throughout the clubhouse but I knew he was pissed. The little grunts and cursing under his breath told me I was in for it.

No one spoke as we passed club members they just stared, my mum and dad not in sight. Kicking his room door closed the bang knocking me out of my thoughts and back to reality. I knew it was coming I just wasn't prepared. Sitting me on the edge of the bed he started pacing the room the glare he was sporting making my toes curl.

He was pissed alright!!

I don't know how long I sat there or how long he was pacing the room glaring at me but I couldn't take it anymore.

"Blaze"... I started but stopped as soon as he stopped pacing and his eyes met mine. In that very moment I knew why everyone was afraid of him. The way he was looking at me hurt. Never once had he looked at me like I was nothing, like I was a piece of rubbish.

"Why must you make me look like an idiot in front of my brothers?" He spat inching his way closer to me. "Why can't you listen to a bloody thing I say? Do you want to fucking die Ava is that it?" Pulling his gun from the back of his jeans he clicked the safety off.

Taking a sharp in take of air I could feel my bottom lip start to tremble. This wasn't my Blaze this was the biker he had grew up to be, the monster that lurked behind the shadows.

"Answer me" He roared taking a grip of my arm and pulling me to my feet, a cry for help slipping from my mouth.

"You're hurting me" I cried the tears springing to my eyes.

"You're lucky I'm not beating the shit out of you" He hissed throwing the gun onto the bed and wrapping his hand in my hair, pulling it tight. "You may be Frankos daughter but you are my old lady. You're behaviour won't be tolerated much longer darlin' you need to be taught a lesson".

He had lost me

"Once you're branded and you're cut is made you will take what I give you" He snapped twisting his hand tighter around my hair.

Branded?

Not being able to hold it in any longer the sob fell from my lips. I wasn't weak I didn't want to show him I was weak but what choice did I have when he was acting this way.

"You will learn sweets whether it be the hard way or the easy way rest assure you'll learn to fall in place".

Is this how old lady's are treated? Is this the way it's meant to be? This wasn't Blaze

"Understood?"

Nodding my head yes I swallowed down the lump that appeared in my throat. Cheeks soaked with tears and nose full of snot I had no choice but to agree. I knew if I snapped back all hell would break loose.

"Good girl" He whispered finally releasing his hand from my hair. Sitting me back onto the bed he disappeared into the bathroom. I was chewing on my lip hard trying not to burst into tears. That right there is something I never want to experience again.

Watching him exit the bathroom I noticed the bowl and face cloth he was carrying. I didn't want to be in here with him - I was terrified. Taking a seat beside me I flinched when he brought the cloth to my face, the flinch not going unnoticed by him.

"I just want to clean you up" He whispered softly wiping the cloth over my face. I was shaking and I couldn't stop. "Ava I'm not going to hurt you now please stop shaking" Again he wiped away the tears that had continued to fall. I couldn't stop shaking, couldn't stop crying. Was he going to act like this every time I disobeyed him or didn't agree with him? As he continued to clean my face I pulled my bottom lip into my mouth.

"You need to start listening to me Ava I can't have you running around unprotected when shit like this is happening". Taking a stand he placed the bowl and cloth onto the bedside table before bending down in front of me so we were eye level. Taking my hand in his I dropped my gaze so I was staring at the carpet. "I'm sorry if I scared you but you have to understand I can't lose you. I'm only trying to protect you sweets and sending you to that cabin was the best way to keep you safe".

"W-why was it just me and Ally?" I stuttered still not being able to look at him. "How come all the other girls got to stay here?" Hiccuping I brought my hand up to wipe at my now sore eyes. "Do you see your mom?" He questioned getting to his feet so he could like a cigarette. "What about Lily did you see her?"

Come to think of it the only people I noticed were club girls. So where the hell was my mom staying?

"Club whores darlin' and I really couldn't give a fuck about them. They are here on their on free will. Nobody forced them to stay and they all know what could happen". Nodding my head in some sort of understanding I started playing with the loose thread on my sweatpants.

"What did you mean when you said branded?" I asked not really sure I wanted to hear the answer.

"My name will be tattooed onto the back of your neck once-..."

If you're loving the book, nel5s.org is where the adventure continues. Join us for the complete experience all for free. The next chapter is eagerly waiting for you! "Absolutely not" I said cutting him off. Nobody will be putting any needles near me. That's one I will be putting my foot down at.

Grabbing a hold of my chin gentle he pushed my head up so I was forced to look at him. "You can bet your sweet ass it will be. Once and for all everyone will know you belong to me". "Blaze I'm not-..."

"I'll be gentle"

"No" I spat dropping my gaze. It was one thing to let him treat me like this but to actually let him tattoo his name onto my body, that wasn't happening.

"It's tradition" He growled running a hand over his beard.

"Well how come my mom doesn't have it" I argued back.

"Trust me she does" he glared as he started pacing the room again.

I so badly wanted to punch him in the throat.

"Are you hungry?" He snapped

Was he joking?

Rolling my eyes I continued to glare at the floor. One minute he's screaming at me the next he's asking if I'm hungry.

"Ava"

"I'm not hungry okay now can you just go so I can sleep" I sighed wanting to be left a lone. Hearing the door slam shut was when I lifted my gaze from the carpet knowing he had left.
