What the hell was going on?
Razor had a massive grin on his face, like he was watching his favourite show, Dani still hadn’t taken her eyes off of Four, and Marisol’s sister Carmen had her eyes squeezed closed, tears streaming down her face.
If we made it out of this, we fuck… we need to do… be so much better. This couldn’t be who we were, how things happened. We needed to change everything about how this club operated, how we saw the world and the people we claimed to care about the most.
Stay hidden baby, stay away until I can fix this and then I will look for you.
I had never felt so thankful that she had run, that she had decided it wasn't safe here anymore and she needed to get away from me, from the club.
More commotion from behind me and I could just see Marisol in my peripheral,fuck…
Was this his plan… to collect all the Ol’ Ladies… take everything from the Club?
Marisol was suddenly yanked back and she yelped. More struggling then she screamed in anger. “No… You don’t get to make this choice. She is my sister Axel…mysister… And trust me I know that you only care about what happens to me now because of the baby…”
Shock spread through the room and Razor didn’t look surprised. He looked pleased at the chaos.
Marisol didn’t stop, “You made that perfectly clear when you assumed the worse of me… when you screamed at me like I was nothing and no one. When you thought I would help that lunatic. But I do not belong to you, and you do not get to make this choice for me.”
The room was silent for a moment until Razor cackled.
“I cannot wait to see how this plays out… ohhhh the choices. And I didn’t even have to ask the question. Our women really are soooo loyal, protective and fierce… aren’t they?”
I heard a grunt from Axel and then Marisol came into view again, her eyes raking over her sister. Carmen’s eyes were still closed, but she must have sensed her sister approaching because she opened them and looked right at her. She shook her head, a choked sob coming out of her. Marisol put a protective hand over her still flat stomach and took a deep breath before looking up at Razor.
“Release her and I will go with you…”
Marisol was cut off when Axel pushed in front of her, placing his gun in the back of his waistband.
“No…” Axel ground out. “Enough of this Razor, you want to punish the club, then be a man and punish the ones who actually deserve it.”
Razor shook his head, “Where would the fun be in that?”
Axel looked back over his shoulder, down at Marisol, andwhispered, “I really do love you. I fucked up, I know it. But I love you.You…with or without the baby.”
Then he turned his attention back on Razor, “Take me. In place of Carmen.”
Razor titled his head like he was considering the offer, then turned to Carmen, he rubbed his gun up her jawline, pushing her hair back from her face.
“I don’t know… choices the choices… Did you know sweet Carmen is a Virgin?”
Shouts were coming from behind me and I could see Marisol shaking behind Axel.
“She could earn me a lot of money… or I could keep her as a pet…”
“You fucking maniac,” Marisol was fighting to get around Axel, but he was holding her back.
“You know Marisol… I didn't think I was into the whole breeding kink thing… But you do have this glow about you…” He paused looking down at Carmen and then back at the bar area. He smiled and then looked at Marisol.
“How about Mara and Marisol for Carmen?”
Angel growled and Axel was fighting to keep himself still, keep Marisol behind him.
“Not a fucking chance,” Angel ground out.
Marisol cried out, as Razor pulled Carmen in front of him. He pulled the back of her hair, so her neck was exposed. He put his gun in his waistband and pulled out one of his knives. I thought maybe I could take this moment, but just as I slowly went to lift my gun I heard atskand the click of a safety and I looked at the man holding Dani who now had a gun to her head. He shook his headno, but Dani… her eyes were still on Four. Like she was ready for whatever happened. Like she had accepted any possibility.
I blew out a breath, knowing that there wasn’t any good decision to be made at this moment and that was exactly what Razor had set up. Exactly what he wanted. Knowing that no matter what choices were made today…. Really since he started messing with the club, would change us all irrevocably. That no person, no relationship would be the same.
