Taken: Rough Devils MC Book 1 (BWWM Motorcycle Club Romance) (10 page)

“Honey,
this last month with you has been great,” he began. “But I think it’s time we
take it one step further.”

My
heart leapt.

“Lindsey,
will-”

Just
then, the doorbell rang. Who could that be? Charlie’s place was out of the way
and only the gang knew he lived there. He’d given explicit instructions not to
be bothered unless it was an emergency.

“I’ll
get it,” I offered, standing up and heading to the door.

When
I opened the door, I found myself staring at darkness. There was nobody there.
I stepped out onto the porch looking around for a car or something. It was dark
out now, and the only light I had was the full moon, so I couldn’t see much of
anything. I turned around to go back into the house when I suddenly felt
someone grab me.

I
managed to let out half a scream before the person covered my mouth with a big
hand and easily dragged me to the road, away from the house.

“Hello,
girl.
Remember me? I’m the guy you turned down at the bar. Like I told you, I’m not
used to being turned down, especially by girls like you. So since you won’t come
obediently, I’ll have to take you by force.”

I
could hear Charlie calling my name from the house. I tried to scream, but the
man had me completely quiet. I couldn’t even get my mouth open.

“Yes,
you can’t make a sound. But I promise before this night is over, you will have
worn out your voice screaming for me.”

His
snarling voice made me want to puke. My captor started to drag me to the woods.
He smelled like dog shit. I was sure that unless his hand was there to keep my
mouth closed, I would have thrown up all over the place.

I
tried to cool my thoughts. I was being kidnapped by a man. The same man who had
been a regular at the bar. He’d taken an interest in me for some reason and now
he wanted to fuck me. Oh god.

“Someone
take her and put her in the car. Take her to the hideout!”

There
were more of them?

“Here
honey, this will help you sleep. Don’t worry, I prefer you awake.
Nothing to fear… yet.”

I
felt a sharp pain in my arm and realized I’d been injected with a sedative. Two
more pairs of hands grabbed me and half carried, half dragged my away.
What
did Charlie want to tell me?
That was my last thought before I passed out.

I
had no idea how long I was out, but the next thing I knew, I was bound to a
chair in what looked like a basement. As my eyes adjusted to the dim light, I
noticed there were a bunch of tall, bulky men surrounding me.

“W-where
am I?” I asked as things started to come into focus.

“She’s
a hot one. She can ride with me!”

“Fuck
no, I want her.”

“Hey
you had the last one,
fuckhead
.”

“So?
I deserve another.”

They
sounded like Shane and Mike going back and forth the night I met my MC. But it
wasn’t them. These voices were unfamiliar.

“Shut
up, the boss wants her first.”

“What
he
don’t
know, won’t hurt him. Just let me put it in
her mouth…”

“No!”

They
argued for several minutes about whether or not we were going to fuck me. I
just sat there, terrified. I knew I was in a lot of danger, and I couldn’t
imagine anyone able to help me, not even my MC. How would they know where I
was?

The
arguing stopped abruptly as the door swung open and in walked the asshole from
the bar, looking uglier than ever. He walked right up to my chair and grinned
in my face.

“I
bet you wonder where you
are?
”

I
spat
in his face.

“Fuck
you,” I said defiantly, furious.

He
just chuckled and wiped the spit off with his shirt.

“I
like a girl with a little attitude. You’ll be a perfect addition.”

“An
addition to what?”
I asked angrily.

His
eyes glinted with pure malice.

“Our
MC of course.
You’re talking to the leader of Road Hogs Gone Wild. After you’ve been with all
of us at least once, you’ll become our newest member. You’ll come around
eventually. You won’t be allowed to leave the building, but we’ve been looking
for a chick for a while now. You look slutty enough.”

I
couldn’t believe what a sack of shit this guy was. But as scared and angry as I
was, I almost felt like laughing. Not only did his gang name sound beyond
stupid, this fucker didn’t even realize that he was fucking with someone who
was a member of a
real
MC.

“Well
that’s a problem for you isn’t it? I’m already a member of an MC. Rough Devils
MC, in fact. And we’ll be very interested to hear where I am.”

That
shut them up. Their faces all went stark white in unison. I smiled a satisfied
smile. Maybe I’d get out of this yet.

But
the leader just laughed.

“Well,
it just so happens I
knew
you were a member. You’re MC is one of the
richer ones. I think your gang would pay some good money for you to be brought
back. And until then, we can have a little fun. We don’t plan on letting you
out anytime soon.”

It
was his turn to grin as I grew pale. I was well and truly fucked now. The
leader pointed to one of the guys.
Another ugly one with a
face tattoo and a Mohawk.

“You
can have her first, Nate. Get her nice and wet for the rest of us.”

The
guy, Nate, revealed bright yellow teeth as he grinned and pulled down his
pants. But before he could get them off all the way, I heard a loud gunshot.

Everyone
turned and faced the doorway as a big man walked through. He had short, brown
hair with tattoos running down his arm, and the biggest muscles I had ever
seen.
Even bigger than any of the Rough Devils.
If I
hadn’t been a prisoner, I probably would have been turned on.

“I
suggest you let the girl go, Wes. Or you may find yourself in a world of shit.”

He
carried a gigantic shotgun and aimed it right at the leader’s head. The leader
had gone pale again.

“O-okay.
Whatever you say.”
He took a knife out and cut my bonds. I
jumped up instantly and ran over to the mysterious man.

“I
ever find out that you guys fucked with her or the Rough Devils again, you guys
are
gonna
learn real quick what it feels like to be
shot with this thing.” He hefted the shotgun.

Wes
leered at him.

“We’ll
see, Stone. We’ll see.”

The
big man took me by the arm and led me out of there quickly. The place looked like
a small house, but I didn’t have much time to observe. I found myself out in
the night air quickly enough.

“Where
are you taking me?” I asked nervously, hoping he wasn’t another asshole.

“To
my house,” he replied leading me to a huge bike.

“Well
can’t you take me back to where I came from? Where are we anyway?”

He
turned to me.

“Listen,
girl, you
gotta
trust me. You are on the other side
of the state now. Your MC is hours away and it isn’t safe for you to be riding
across the state, at least for a few weeks. Those guys who took you captive
have probably sent out the signal now.”

“What
signal?” I asked, climbing behind him onto the bike.

“I’ll
explain when we get back to my place.”

With
that, he revved the engine and we rode off into the night. I was very aware of
this man’s muscular chest underneath my hands as I held on tightly. The bike
vibrating underneath my legs only added to my pleasure.

By
the time we’d gotten back to his place, I was beyond tired. I followed him into
his house and collapsed on his bed as soon as he showed it to me.

I
woke up to the man on the edge of the bed looking out the window into the
bright sunlight.

“How
long was I out?”

“Several
hours.
It’s almost noon.”

“So
can we get back to my MC now?”

He
shook his head.

“I’m
afraid that’s out of the question, I. You can’t travel across the state until
those guys who kidnapped you calm down. They’ll be sending every MC in the
state after you for at least a few weeks. Their leader’s dad is a real big shot
in this state. Even your own MC won’t be able to protect you if the rest of the
gangs are after you. You’ll have to stay with me until this dies down. Oh, and
you have two weeks to surrender to those guys or they will come after you and
your club. And they won’t be as gentle. They’ll go for the leader first.
Your lover.”

I
lay back on the pillow. So I was stuck here without Charlie for the next few
weeks,
and alone with this guy. And I had two weeks to
surrender. What the hell was I supposed to do?

“So
how can you help me?” I asked, heart pounding again.

“Well
I’ve got a plan. But it’s going to have to wait until tomorrow when I can have
my guy deliver the equipment.”

I
decided not to ask what he was talking about just yet. It did make me feel a
little better he wanted to help my though.

“So
you’re Stone or something?” I asked, breaking the silence.

“My
name is Jackson Stone. But you can call me
Jax
. I’m
an old friend of the leader of your MC, Charlie. I help deal with affairs for
the gang in this part of the state. He owes me for some shit I got him out of a
while back. He’s had me follow you around and try to protect you for a few
weeks now, just in case something like this came up.”

Charlie
had my followed? In that moment, I realized that being a member of an MC wasn’t
just riding around in bikes and recruiting people. It was much more dangerous
than that.

Jax
got off the bed
and turned to me.

“I’ll
make you some food if you want. The kitchen is right across the hall.” His
electric blue eyes seemed to bore into mine, staring into my soul.

I
smiled.

“That
would be great, thanks.”

He
smiled back, revealing perfect teeth. This guy just kept getting more attractive
by the minute. But no, I belonged to Charlie.

When
I was finally completely awake, I went to the kitchen and waited for
Jax
to finish making my breakfast.

“So
what can we do until your guy comes by?” asked I as I watched him cook.

“Well,
it would be too risky for you to leave the house and I can’t leave you all by
yourself.”

“So
how will we pass the time?”

He
paused and turned around to face me. He looked almost nervous now.

“That
is up to you. Charlie told me after you’d fallen asleep that we could do
anything
together. He understood if you wanted to… fulfill your desires while you were
away.”
