Where We Belong

Chapter 133

I wish they had killed me. I must have passed out after they... I couldn't bring my self to say it. Feeling it rise up my throat I vomited not caring that it was all over me. Wiping at my mouth a sob broke past my lips as I looked around myself. I had no idea where I was. Lying on the floor in my own blood and vomit I tried to pick myself up but couldn't.

Pain was all I felt...

My body broken, numb.

Taking a deep breath I pushed myself to my knees a strangled cry slipping past my lips. With shaky hands I pulled up my jeans and managed to get to my feet. Looking around the room relief hit me when I noticed my phone a few feet from where I stood. Wiping the silent tears that rolled down my cheeks I picked it up. The screen was badly cracked but I prayed it would turn on. I had to get out of here in case they came back.

My head was thumping, my full body in agony but I knew I had to find a way out. With the help of the wall I pushed myself along it my eyes searching everything in sight. Finally finding a door I pushed on it falling out into an alley way...

It was dark, light rain pouring from the sky. How long did they keep me? Looking around I got up with the help of a dumpster. Searching for anything that would tell me where I was I held my phone tight. Walking as best I could I made it to the end of the alley way, keeping myself hiding I looked around my heart hammering in my chest when my eyes landed on the one person that could help me.

Duke...

He was standing outside a bar some girl glued to his side laughing with a few guys. MC guys I didn't care anymore, I needed help and he was the only that could help me. Creeping out I held one hand against my leg my other hand in front of me so I could hold onto anything to help me get to him. I couldn't take my eyes off him, he was the only hope I had of getting out of this nightmare.

As if he could sense someone staring he finally locked eyes with me all humor wiped from his face. A cry fell from my lips, a sign of relief when he noticed it was me. Not having the energy to walk any further I dropped to my knees. My eyes closing, giving up.

A scream fell from my lips as more pain cursed through my body. He had lifted me into his arms, cradling me to his chest.

"Get the fucking truck. Ava, Ava hey stay with me."

"Duke put her back where you-..."

"She's Frankos daughter" I heard Duke growl "Now get the fucking truck I need to call Blaze".

"No please no don't call him" I cried as I heard the screeching of tires. "Please Duke I- he'll" I couldn't finish my sentence.

"Fuck" He roared placing me into the back of the truck, sliding in beside me my head fell against his shoulder.

"Jared" I whispered "Get Jared".NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

I was slumped against Dukes side, nobody spoke a word. Silent tears rolled down my cheeks as I stared at the nightlife we passed. I had no idea where we were going but I couldn't go home, couldn't go to the clubhouse.

"We need to take you to the hospital" He said breaking the silence.

"No" I whispered

"Ava you're bleeding we-.."

"I said no" Cutting him off I manovered myself so I was leaning against the window.

Hearing vibrations Duke cursed before bringing the phone to his ear. Hearing his voice on the other end made fresh tears fall.

"How would I have seen her? She hates my guts" Duke shook his head as he pinched his nose "If I hear anything I'll let you know".

"Thank you" I croaked wiping at my eyes. Feeling the car start to slow down I panicked as we pulled into a drive way.

"Sasha" Was all he said as he got out. Following suit I grit my teeth as I pushed myself out.

Nobody knew what to say in front of me. The silence was deafening and the awkwardness was killing me. Duke hadn't taken his eyes of me since we got here. Sasha burst out crying as soon as she saw. She tried to talk to me, comfort me even but I couldn't take anything in. I didn't feel anything, didn't want to feel anything didn't want to talk.

Hearing the roar of a bike Duke got to his feet and started pacing the living room. I prayed that he was alone. Blaze couldn't see me like this, he couldn't know what happened.

"The fuck was so important that I had to come all the way out.."

He stopped talking...

I couldn't look at him.

"Ava?" He was on his knees in front of me grabbing a hold of my hands. "Sweetheart look at me".

Glancing at him I burst into tears as he pulled me into his arms. Jared was like my big brother. Our relationship had blossomed into a beautiful friendship and I trusted him with my life.

"It's okay sweetheart I've got you" I was holding him like my life depended on it. I knew I was safe. "I have to call Blaze" He whispered rubbing small circles on the bottom of my back.

I knew he was going to say it but I couldn't face Blaze. I wasn't ready for him to reject me now I was broken.

"Jared he won't w-want me anymore" I stuttered my bottom lip quivering. I was damaged. Feeling him stiffen I knew he knew what I was talking about. "I'll fucking murder everyone in this city until I find out who did this. Duke a word" Jared snapped letting me go.

"Ava can I get you anything?" Sasha asked as she took a seat beside me. Everyone else had left the room and no doubt Blaze was on his way. "He's not going to want me anymore" I whispered mostly to myself. "I have to leave he can't see me" Trying to get to my feet my leg gave way a hiss escaping my mouth.

"He loves you" She whispered grabbing a hold of my hand. "Let me at least get you out of these clothes please" She begged

"He won't anymore". Taking her hand she helped me up and into the bathroom.

"Do you want me to stay?" She asked standing by the door. Shaking my head no she closed the door behind her leaving me with my own thoughts.

The first thing I noticed as I stripped

out of my clothes was my blood stained legs the word Vagos carved into my thigh. Falling to the floor I let the water wash over me as sobbed uncontrollably.

V

I don't know how long I was in there for, didn't care. My skin was red raw and on fire but I couldn't move. It wasn't until I felt my body being pulled against a hard chest. He didn't say anything just held me tightly against him as we both cried.

Lifting me out of the shower he wrapped a towel around my body. I couldn't look at him. I didn't want to see what he was thinking. I was ashamed and embarrassed.

Taking off his cut he pulled his hoodie over his head and put it over mine pulling it down my body. Grabbing the sweatpants that Sasha had left out he held them as I slipped my legs into them.

"Gonna take you home sweets".

Nodding my head I still didn't have the courage to look at him. Seeing as Blaze arrived on his bike Duke loaned him his truck to get us home. "Need anything VP?" Jared asked as we reached the truck.

"Names" Was all he said as he put me in the passenger seat. Closing the door I watched as he shared a few hush words with him. Clipping my belt in I leaned my head against the window.

I couldn't sleep and because I couldn't Blaze wouldn't. Every time I closed my eyes I could see his eyes staring back at me, haunting me about what he done to me, what they done to me.

We had been laying in bed for hours and yet not a word was spoken. Once I heard the light snores coming from him I slipped out of bed and sneaked into the bathroom.

My body was battered and bruised.

My face black and blue. I didn't know how much more I could take. Turing the hot tap on I pulled my pj bottoms down and started to scrub at my thigh until it began to bleed Angry tears ran down my cheeks. How could I have been so stupid to faff for something like that? Pulling my bottoms back up I quietly made my way to the kitchen. Grabbing the smokes that lay on the table I opened my back door and sat on the step. The cool air was welcomed, the light breeze nipping at my skin.

Nothing was going to be the same anymore. I knew there was bad people in the world and I knew bad things happen to people all the time but I

guess I thought I'd never be a victim of it.

Victim!!
