I shake my head, knowing that he needs to deal with this. I want him to deal with this.
“I’ll come back, okay?” he says. “You rest.”
I nod, and he tucks the blankets tighter around me before storming out of the room.
I close my eyes. God help Trigg.
CHAPTER 19
AXEL
To show weakness is a sin, I’ll never let you in.
I storm down the stairs, trying to control the burning anger inside my chest. My fists are shaking. I want to get hold of this fucker and tear his fucking head off. Lady comes rushing in, just as I hit the bottom step. Her eyes are wide, and she looks devastated.
“Axel,” she says. “I’m so sorry.”
“You were meant to be watching her,” I roar. “I trusted you with her safety.”
“I didn’t think...I didn’t expect something like this would happen. I thought I could trust them all, and...”
I step toward her, grinding my teeth. “He fuckin’ raped her, Lady. He put his dick inside her, he drugged her, and he tried to fuck her.”
“W-w-w-who?” she says, with a trembling lip.
“Trigg.”
Her eyes widen, and she shakes her head from side to side. “No, he wouldn’t...”
“You want me to take you up there and see that broken girl?” I roar.
“Axel, please, this has to be some sort of misunderstanding...”
“It’s not.”
I hear a voice coming from behind me, and I spin to see another man with blonde hair holding a tall, squirming guy in his grips.
“Coby, what are you doing?” Lady gasps.
“I saw him running from the gazebo earlier, but I didn’t know Meadow was in there. He was fumbling with his pants. I figured he was just pissing, but when I heard what went down, I found him trying to fuckin’ leave, and I found these in his pockets.”
Coby lifts a hand full of drugs, and my rage gets the better of me. I charge over, ripping the scumbag from Coby’s hands and slamming him so hard against the wall his head busts open. He bellows in pain, and begins to plead. “She wanted it, she said she wanted it,” he yells in a high-pitched, squeaky voice.
I lift my fist and I drive it into his face, busting his nose. Blood spurts out, but I don’t stop. I drive another fist into his eye, relishing in the feeling of his bones crunching.
“Axel, stop!” Lady cries.
I spin around panting. “This is my business now, Lady. I’m takin’ him.”
“We will call the police, and...”
I step toward her, letting the scumbag drop to the ground. Coby reaches out, putting his boot down on him, stopping him from crawling away.
“Meadow is club property, and he fucked with club property. This is my business now, and if you call the police, you’re only goin’ to get questioned. I’m goin’ to deal with him, and you’re goin’ to stay out of it.”
“Axel,” she whispers. “I’m sorry. I didn’t know...I didn’t know he would do that, and if I had...I would have never...”
I can see the genuine pain in her eyes. She really believed this guy wasn’t bad. I walk over, controlling my rage for long enough to put my hands on her shoulders. “I know, Lady. It wasn’t your fault. I’m goin’ to deal with this now, but what you can do is go and look after my girl until I get back.”
She nods. “I will, I swear.”
She stares down at Trigg on the floor, groaning in pain. “I trusted you,” she whispers, shaking her head sadly. “I hope he makes it hurt.”
When she disappears up the stairs, I turn to Coby. He’s glaring down at Trigg, and his foot is planted firmly on his ribs.
“You fancy a ride?” I growl.
He looks up at me. “You’re gonna let me in on this?”
I stare down at the worthless piece of shit on the floor, then back up at him. “I figure he wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for you, so yeah, I’m lettin’ you in.”
Coby leans down, hurling Trigg up. “Then let’s do this.”
~*~*~*~
“Please,” Trigg bellows, thrashing in the chains.
I’m standing in front of him. Coby and Cobra are to my left, and Colt and Jax are to my right. They were all too eager to be in on this when they found out what the scumbag did.
“You think it’s okay to fuck women that don’t want it?” I growl.
“I...I...” he stammers.
“You think it’s okay to drug them so they don’t get a choice?”
“I just...I just...”
“You fuckin’ answer me, boy,” I roar.
“No!” he cries. “No!”
I take step toward him, and the knife in my hand shimmers in the dull light. “Did it turn you on to see that she couldn’t move?”
His eyes are frantic, and he begins babbling again.
“I wonder how it’ll feel when I cut your dick off, and you can’t do anything to stop me.”
“Please,” he cries. “Please, I won’t do it again. Don’t hurt me. I fucked up. I swear I won’t do it again.”
I take another step forward, yanking his pants down. I glare at his flaccid cock with a rage that is uncontrollable.
“That was my girl you fucked,” I spit. “No one fucks with my girl.”
“Please!” he screams.
I stare at his dick, and turn to Cobra. “Hold it up.”
