CJ (Aces MC Series Book 6) Page 10

"I haven't been allowed out on my own since living with Onyx, I don't think he'll like it."

  Recon and I glanced at each other confused, "Why hasn't he allowed you to go out?" she shrugged to my bemusement. "Well you're mine for the evening and I can do with you what I want." I opened my wallet and removed a £20 note, I stepped forward and handed it to her. "Get whatever you want."

  Charity smiled, "Do you want anything in particular?" she asked quietly folding the note.

  "Surprise me," I could see her face retort as she tried to work out what I meant and I'm sure she was going to ask me to elaborate. "Sweetness you're over thinking everything, just go and get some munchies."

  "Oh okay," she placed the note into her jacket pocket and scarpered from the room looking a little nervous.

  "So enlighten me!"

  I rolled my eyes, "Well I'm pleased you find this all so amusing."

  "Well come on mate, you've only been back a couple of hours and I arrive here to find a very young girl in your bed."

  "It's not like that, I won the auction." I paced the room a little before sitting on the chair by the desk.

  Recon chuckled as he placed his hands on his hips, "Oh yeah I forgot about that."

  "Well so did I until I got back this evening but I couldn't let her lose her virginity in that way."

  "You're going soft in your old age," Recon sniggered again at the situation. "But I suppose you've opened a can of worms regarding the girl?"

  I let out a sigh, "You could say that."

  "So what happened to keeping a low profile?" he asked giggling like a school girl.

  "I know, I know but I just couldn't help it." I leaned back in the chair and crossed my legs in front of me as I outstretched them.

  "Well I hope you know what you're doing mate because this could backfire horribly."

  I shook my head, "It won't, she'll be out of my hair tomorrow."

  "And then what happens when he wants to fuck her tomorrow or loan her to one of his mates because you know that's going to happen." Recon moved to stand directly in front of me.

  "I didn't think of that."

  "Exactly, look you need to think about this tonight before you give her back."

  "You talk like she's a possession."

  "Well she is mate, not yours but she belongs to Onyx and he'll now want a go."

  And he was right, now that she'd given him the big payday she was fair game and I knew deep down that he'd want to fuck her. I'd seen the way he looked at her and knew that she'd then be passed around the club, it was awful to think of that happening but at this moment in time I couldn't think of a solution.

  "I'll have to come up with a plan and quickly but I can't do this now."

  "So how you getting the money together? I'm assuming it cost you a small fortune for the pleasure of her company tonight."

  I sniggered, "Sure did. Eli and Twizz, sorry Fallon are bringing the money up tomorrow."

  "I can't believe you still call her that," Recon laughed at my reference to Fallon's nickname but I'd called her that since she was a baby. "But how come she's coming up? I thought you asked her to stay away?"

  I let out a loud sigh, "Indeed but you know what my sister's like, a little like your ex bird if I'm totally honest." Recon nodded knowing exactly what I meant. That was the thing with club, you needed that companionship so you could bounce things off them. You weren't supposed to divulge any club information but there weren't many men that could keep their gobs shut if their favourite piece of pussy was asking them questions. The women that were associated with the club also held certain characteristics, they were loyal but most importantly were strong women that could not only look after themselves but also their children, family and old man if they had to. Not many women had those qualities but when you found a woman who did, you needed to grab her with both hands and not let go.

  I was pulled from my thoughts by the rapping on the door. Recon removed his blade from the sheaf attached to his belt and made his way up the entrance hall to the front door to look through the spy hole.

  "Your birds here CJ," Recon mocked as he opened the door to let her in.

  Charity walked briskly into the room holding a striped carrier bag containing items bought at the shop. Recon and I watched as she sat on the edge of the bed and emptied the contents onto the mattress with a look of pure pleasure on her face. She selected one chocolate bar and ripped the corner of the wrapper with her teeth before forcing the rest of the wrapper open to reveal the chocolate. Without even looking up she sunk her teeth into the soft confectionary and let out a satisfied moan of pleasure.

  "Oh my god, how can you make the act of eating a chocolate bar so sexual?"

  I shook my head with amazement at the words that came from Recons mouth and slapped his forearm to try to get him to shut up. "What?" he asked not taking his eyes from Charity.

  "She's fucking sixteen Recon stand down man." I slowly won his attention but he kept looking back at her munching through the bars one by one.

  "I'm ribbing you, she's staying in your bed not mine." Recon gave me a cheeky wink as he pushed passed me heading for the door. "Anyway I'll leave you to it and I'll see you bright and early tomorrow at work." Recon lifted his hand and waved as he opened the door and left the hotel room.

  I returned my attention back to Charity as she moved further up the bed continuing munching her way through the assortment of goodies.

  Charity looked up, "You want one?" she asked with a mouthful of chocolate holding up one of the bars.

  I shook my head, "Nah I'm good thanks." She shrugged and lay back onto the bed still with her jacket and boots on. I turned and grabbed the seat that I'd pushed under the desk and dragged it towards the bed. I noticed the bemused expression on her face as I turned the chair and sat down to face her. "So what's your story Charity, I know that you're a house mouse but how did you end up here?"

  She slowed her chewing motion and I could see her analysing my question, "Don't try and think of an answer that you think I may want to hear sweetness because I just want to hear the truth."

  Charity swallowed and turned to throw the wrapper from her chocolate into the bin before sitting up, "What do you want to know?"

  "Everything!"

  "I'll make a deal with you, you ask questions and I'll answer them truthfully as long as you take me with you."

  "What do you mean take you with me?" I asked bemused by her question.

  "Exactly that, you're part of the Aces MC aren't you?" I raised my brows in response making sure I didn't answer the question aloud. She waved her hand, "Yeah whatever, anyway I'm assuming you'll be going soon and I'd like to come with you."

  "Really? And what makes you think that we're any different to the Satan's and what do you think you'll be able to do for us if I take you?"

  She analysed my words and looked up at the ceiling as she contemplated, "I've been good to your club already by retrieving the memory stick and diary and the least the club can do is help me out until I've sorted myself out with a job."

  It was now my turn to contemplate what she'd just said, she was correct she had been a good asset but it wasn't my decision to make. I would need to go higher through the ranks to see if it was at all possible for her to have some lodgings before I agreed but I couldn't see there being an issue with it. Maggie would be all over her like a pet project.

  "The best I can do at this time babe is to say that I'll have a word, I can't say fairer than that." I held my arms open showing my palms trying to look genuine. "But it's not my decision although I'll sing your praises."

  "Okay that's fair enough so what do you want to know?" Charity sat up and shuffled back on the bed. She turned around to plump her pillow so that she was comfortable and nodded her head pleased with the outcome as she leaned back to assess me.

  "How did you end up with the Satan's?" I folded my arms across my chest and rested them on the back of the chair.

  Charity let out a deep sigh as she clasped her hands t
ogether and laid them onto her lap, "I was a runaway. I left my home a year ago before my stepfather could do the things that he'd threatened to do to me for years. I wasn't prepared to sit and wait so I took off and haven't looked back since." She stared at her twisted hands rather than look at me and I was surprised by her direct approach although I knew she was nervous giving her account.

  "That's why you left home but not how you ended up with the club." I wanted to know what type of girl she was and possibly a little more about her character although I knew she had a kind heart already.

  "Slick found me sleeping rough, he said that he could hook me up with some lodgings and then see what he could do for me." Charity sniggered, "I just thought he was being nice. I didn't realise what he wanted from me."

  "And that was?" I knew what the club was involved in because of Locke's diary but I wanted to hear it from her.

  "Sex! They round up young vulnerable girls and roll them out through various means and expect them to have sex." She let out a sigh, "I was kinda lucky I suppose."

  "Why do you say that?"

  "Onyx took a shine to me straight away and took me home the day I arrived. His misses had moaned about having some help around the house and he saw it as a solution."

  "What does your role involve?"

  "She takes charge when he isn't at home. She makes me cook, clean, iron and look after the kids. I'm not allowed to go out on my own but we do go to the shops occasionally and have also been to the clubhouse."

  "And how did he find out that you're a virgin?" I was intrigued as to how he found out.

  "I told him," I saw a flush cover her body. Charity brought her legs up close to her chest and wrapped her arms around to hug them. "He came home drunk one evening. Poppy was high and had crashed on the sofa so he came to my room and forced himself upon me. It was then that I told him but I don't know why he stopped his advances and left me alone."

  "That seems strange to me, I'm sure some of the other girls must've been virgins."

  "Not as far as I know. Most of the girls come from troubled backgrounds and have been in the care system or are runaways so the chances are that they aren't."

  "Okay, go on." If she was prepared to talk further then I was going to listen to her.

  "Well from that day the guys acted differently around me. It was as if they had been told not to touch me as it was obvious that I was being treated differently from the rest of the girls."

  "So when did you find out what they had planned for you?"

  Charity let out a loud sigh and rocked back and forth deep in thought. I didn't push, I wanted her to share her experiences because she wanted to rather than having to. She looked up at me, "The other girls hated me. They knew that I was left alone and because of that they resented me but it wasn't my fault, they just needed someone to blame."

  "I get that so was it one of them that told you?" Charity slowly nodded and the penny finally dropped. "They'd heard it from one of their punters and thought they'd throw it back in your face, am I right?"

  "Give that man a prize," she said sarcastically and it was the second time that I had seen her act carefree as a young women should. She'd endured a lot by being here associated with the club, I'm sure she'd probably seen things that she wouldn't want to share but I was thankful that I was able to save her this evening. Even if I had bought her another couple of hours of happiness then that was okay with me but I was hoping, praying even that I would be able to get her to safety.

  "I can't blame them for being spiteful, they needed to lash out and it just so happened to be me that received the brunt of it."

  "I can't believe that you're being so understanding to be honest but I take it that's just your nature."

  "Life's too short to hold grudges. I've been dealt a shit hand in life but I'm hoping you'll take me up on my offer and take me with you." Her face lit at the prospect and I only hoped that Duke would be up for it.

  "That's true but I'm trying my best to think of a way to get you out of this situation."

  Charity looked at me confused, "Situation?"

  I nodded, "Yeah. Now that Onyx thinks you're not a virgin, he'll either want you for himself or he'll pass you around which I don't want."

  Charity raised her hand, "I ain't going to lie and say I'm not scared but there's nothing I can do. This is now my life and unless you can help I'm stuck here." She released her other arm from around her knees and pulled off her Ugg boots one at a time placing them onto the floor beside the bed. I stood and put the chair back under the desk, I glanced at my watch and saw that it was getting late. As I returned my attention back to Charity I noticed that she'd now removed her jacket and had snuggled on top of the covers on her side so that she didn't have to look at me.

  "I'm gonna try my best Charity, I promise you I'll try my best."

  She ignored me and lay motionless, I stepped closer to the bed to see that her eyes were closed and I didn't push the situation knowing that she didn't want to talk further. I smiled at the thought, thinking of how women were all the same regardless of their age. I crouched and arranged my sleeping bag before unzipping the side to allow easy access inside. The cold material against my skin sent shivers down my body and I immediately got a twinge making my cock jut upright. I groaned at the thought of not being able to have a wank this evening, this was going to be torture. I needed something to take my mind off things and grabbed for my mobile.

  There was only one person I wanted to talk to but she'd been quiet since our conversation in the park earlier today and I was hoping that she'd got over our little misunderstanding. I opened Whattsapp, to see that she hadn't read my previous message and sighed at the thought.

  I just wanted to wish you a good night. Sweet dreams Irish xx

  As I sent the message I quickly wondered whether it was too much to call her that but she'd been claimed and already given a name, it was only right that she was called it even after his passing. I lay in the dark holding my phone hoping that she'd reply but she didn't, Keira obviously hadn't forgiven herself for her impromptu kiss earlier on in the park. I placed my phone onto the floor and rolled to my side trying to get comfortable. I'd give her some space, I was extremely busy for the next couple of days anyway but there was no way I was going to allow her to ignore me. She'd have to try harder than that if she wanted me out of her life.

  "Good morning, do you want one of these?" I held up my mug.

  Charity shook her head, "Nah I'm good thanks, I think I'll hit the shower quickly if that's okay?" She slithered from the covers and headed to the bathroom and I was appreciative of a couple of minutes alone, not that she'd been a problem. I removed the teabag from the mug and gave it a stir, there was nothing that beat the first cup of tea of the day. I sniggered at the thought, well there was but that was off the agenda for a while. I shoved my hand inside my jeans and rearranged myself as I got a semi thinking about it. My phone vibrated from my pocket, I quickly removed my hand from inside my jeans and grabbed my phone hoping that it was Keira but sighed as I read the screen.

  I pressed accept and rested it against my ear, "Finn how can I help you mate?" I asked sitting myself into the chair positioned in front of the desk.

  "Are you at work yet?" he asked with too much energy to his voice for my liking.

  "Nah mate I'm still getting ready." I didn't want to inform him of last night's encounter as he'd twist things and make more of it than it was.

  "Oh okay, we're just on our way to yours."

  "I thought Eli and Twizz were coming?" I asked confused by the change not that I was complaining.

  "Nah just me and Fallon, I'm letting her drive."

  "Fucking hell you're brave."

  He sniggered, "I know but at least a three hour journey only takes one."

  "Oi I am here you know!" Fallon could be heard moaning as the phone was on loudspeaker.

  "You were meant to and what the fuck, stop the stretching I'm sitti
ng next to you!"

  I shook my head at their banter and was surprised that he'd allowed her to drive. Fallon wasn't known for her driving skills, well she was but not in a good light.

  "So what's your ETA?" I asked trying to work out how long I had to get ready.

  Finn laughed, "Like I say it should be an hour but with Michael Schumacher here it will probably be 5 minutes....Ouch!"

  I heard a slap then a girly giggle and knew that Fallon was getting her own back.

  "Can you two pack it up you'll have an accident."

  "Well tell him to stop being horrible about my driving." I couldn't see her but knew that she'd be pouting right about now.

  "Well I'm gonna leave mine in about fifteen minutes and then I'll be in the foreman's office when you arrive."

  "Sounds like a plan buddy, make sure they have coffee."

  "Will do, drive carefully!"

  I heard Finn snigger before the call ended. I smiled thinking about our interaction, that's one thing for our family it didn't matter what had gone on during the day we were always able to leave the shit behind and knew that happiness was the most important thing.

  My phone bleeped indicating that I'd received a message and I thought it may be Finn carrying on the joke but I was pleasantly surprised to see Keira's name.

  All is well my end

  Her text seemed a little strange considering what I had asked her last night but I shook the thought blaming it on her hormones.

  Pleased to hear it babe. Are you taking it easy?

  I wanted to know that she was feeling okay physically because that would then put my mind at risk.

  Yeah

  She wasn't one for one word answers but I knew there was a little friction still because of the incident in the park.

  Ok babe, do you need anything?

  No, I'll be in touch soon.

  Again, her reply surprised me but I wasn't going to make a big issue of it. She had enough going on without me adding to the situation.

  Okay sweetness, speak soon.

  "Is that your girlfriend?" I turned to see Charity standing in the doorway of the bathroom with a smile on her face. I looked at her confused by what she was getting at and she nodded towards my phone, "You were smiling at your phone so I assumed it was your girlfriend."
