SAM

After Clink left to return to work, Tyson and the women stayed with me. I hated simply how needy I felt, and the way a lot it damage when Clink walked away. He had issues he wanted to do, and I couldn’t blame him for that. It was simply onerous after all the things that occurred.

My reminiscence got here again slowly. I form of wished I didn’t keep in mind it, and I awakened twice final evening crying from the nightmares. Tyson talked about getting me some remedy and regardless that I had a horrible expertise with it earlier than, I used to be keen to attempt. The one he had in thoughts was a buddy of his, and somebody I used to be aware of from the NA conferences. She was even keen to return to me, since I used to be a bit freaked out about leaving the clubhouse proper now.

I spent many of the afternoon in my room, however when it obtained near dinner, I let Riley persuade me to return downstairs for a short while. Tyson made dinner, which shocked Riley, Quinn, and Allie as a result of none of their guys cooked. Once I talked about Clink cooking me breakfast, all of them seemed a bit shell shocked. He’d by no means informed them earlier than and I didn’t really feel dangerous outing him as a result of there was no manner he was going to by no means cook dinner for me once more. They’d see it will definitely.

We have been simply getting snug on the couches with selfmade quesadillas when the final particular person I anticipated walked by means of the door to the membership. Chrissie seemed jumpy and anxious, her eyes darting round. Once they landed on me, her backbone stiffened and he or she made a beeline for the steps.

“Hey! What are you doing right here?”

Riley rolled her eyes. “There went the hope that she’d by no means come again.”

I turned my head sharply to face her. “You don’t perceive. She was feeding data to Hammer. She was the rationale he knew about me.”

Riley and Quinn shot me horrified seems to be, but it surely was Allie who launched to her toes, storming upstairs. Fortunately, Chase overheard me and went after her. We heard a scuffle, and I clutched Quinn’s hand nervously, however Allie didn’t look damage when she got here again downstairs. She had a gun, which I did not know she owned, pressed in opposition to Chrissie’s head and Chase had Chrissie’s arms held behind her again.

“Simply wait till the fellows hear about this. You’ll be strapped right into a seat proper subsequent to Hammer. You realize the shit they do to individuals who cross them?” Allie snarled.

Frowning, I solid a take a look at Riley. “What’s she speaking about?”

Riley grimaced. “Effectively… I don’t understand how a lot you’ve heard in regards to the guys’ fame, and I’ve by no means seen them take care of it myself, however…” She trailed off, leaving it to my creativeness to determine what Allie was speaking about. My mouth fell open and my gaze darted to Chrissie. She was a bitch, and I knew I used to be in that home due to her, however I didn’t need her getting tortured for it.

“N-No! I assumed you’d kick her out, not damage her!”

Chase grimaced. “That’s not the way it works round right here. She gave data to Hammer. She offers with the results of it.”

He mentioned that, however even he seemed uncomfortable with the thought of torturing a girl. I leapt to my toes, pushing him and Allie away from Chrissie.

“She’s a bitch, sure, and he or she did some actually tousled stuff, however she additionally saved me.”

Riley got here nearer, her brows drawn down. “What are you speaking about?”

I stored myself between Chrissie and the remainder of them. It was harmful, she may need a weapon or one thing, however I couldn’t simply allow them to torture her. It wasn’t proper.

“Hammer was going to rape me. She drew his consideration away and let him fuck her as a substitute. I can’t allow you to damage her.”

She sucked in a breath behind me, and once I reached again, she took my hand, squeezing it tightly. I wasn’t going to inform them that the one purpose she did it was as a result of he was hurting her. It was irrelevant. She nonetheless stored him away from me.

Quinn seemed unsure, and Riley was frowning. Even Allie seemed like she was wavering. I shot a determined take a look at Chase.

“She will depart proper now and nobody will know she was right here. Nobody will even know she was concerned. Simply let her go. Please.”

His eyes flicked between every of us earlier than he grimaced. “I’d have to run it by Prez…” My shoulders slumped as a result of I knew as soon as Croy came upon about Chrissie’s involvement, he’d by no means let her depart, however Chase continued earlier than I might argue. “However I suppose if the First Girl agrees, it’s kind of the identical factor. She’d be capable of persuade him ultimately.” He raised his eyebrows at Riley.

Spinning round, I pleaded together with her. “Please, Riley. Let her go.”

She sighed, scrubbing her fingers over her face. When she checked out Chrissie, I noticed Chrissie’s backbone straighten, her chin going up. Nonetheless performing robust regardless that she knew what would occur if Riley mentioned no. Her fingers have been clammy and he or she nonetheless gripped mine, giving her away, however I didn’t point out it. She stored her mouth shut, although, which was a step in the suitable route.

Riley pointed at her. “You agree that you simply’ll by no means come again? Not simply to the clubhouse, however the entire city. You’ll keep the hell away from the crew, even the charters, and if we discover out you’re giving data away once more, it’ll be even worse for you. Agreed?”

Chrissie’s jaw tightened as she nodded. “Agreed.”

Huffing out a pointy breath, Riley crossed her arms with a scowl. “Then get the hell out. I’m telling Croy what you probably did ultimately. You higher be a number of states over once I do.”

She spun, heading straight in direction of the entrance door, however got here up brief, spinning round to face me once more.

“Thanks. And… I’m sorry. Individually in it.”
