Tank Fallen Angel's MC 2 (10 page)

            Chapter 24

Pushing the bedroom door open, I find my little girl in a heap of tears on the bed. My heart wants to burst at the seams seeing her this way. It fucking kills me.

Cher’s head pops up when I close the door. She smiles and nods before climbing off the bed and walking towards me.

“She needs her dad.” Her hand rests on my chest before I lean in and kiss her.

“Thank you.” Kissing her one more time, she leaves the room closing the door behind her.

I blow out a breath and try to calm my nerves as I walk over to the bed.

“I’m sorry Bella.” The words catch in my throat. I’m sorry just doesn’t seem like it’s enough. I feel like I should have something more to say to her.

Her cries get louder as I sit on the edge and wrap my arm around her. Her head comes up and her puffy red eyes lock on mine.

“I hate her dad! I hate her so much for everything.” Bella sits up before I pull her against me. I hold her close to me and in this moment I feel like more of a father than I ever have.

“I hate her too Bella. I hate what she did to you. This isn’t over. I will make her pay and I will make every one of those motherfuckers that hurt you pay. I never make a promise darlin’ that I can’t back up but this is my promise to you.”  Bella jumps off the bed and runs to the bathroom with her hand over her mouth.

I can hear her throwing up. I have never had to do this part of the fatherhood thing before.

I walk in behind her as she hangs over the toilet.

“What do you need me to do here?” I know that may be the stupidest question I have ever asked but this is the first time that vie had to do this.

“Towel.” She doesn’t look up as I grab a towel and pass it her.

“I hate feeling like this dad. I hate it.” Bella cries as I drop down next to her.

“I know darlin’. Believe me I know. I wish I could take it all away but I can’t.” Bella turns to look at me with tears still falling down her cheeks.

“Will it ever stop hurting so much?” God, I hate this. I hate every fucking thing that’s hurting her.

“It will.” I reach for her and my heart leaps in my chest when she lets me hold her. I pull her into me and just hold her like a father should.

I made the choice that day at the lake to be a better father to her and I sure as hell am going to do just that.

“You know you can talk to me baby girl.” Bella sniffs as she snuggles in closer.

“I know. I like talking to Cher too. She understands me.”  That hits me in the heart.

“I know she does. Probably more than you even know.” Lifting Bella in my arms, I carry her out to the bed and lay her down.

“You want anything?” I sit on the edge of the bed unsure of how all this stuff works.

“Will you stay with me?” Her slight sniffles touch my heart. This is my baby girl and I would die for her.

“Of course.” I climb on the bed as Bella rolls over and snuggles against me. It’s a strange feeling having her in my arms.

“She never really wanted me. What kind of person doesn’t want their own kid?” The tears don’t stop and I don’t have an answer for that one. I’m at a loss.

I hold Bella for a long time until she finally falls asleep. Sliding out of the bed, I run my hand over the side of her face clearing away the last of the tears that stain her cheeks.

“I’ll always want you.” Kissing her on the cheek, I head out to the main room to look for Cher.

“Hey where’s Cher?” Creed turns to look at me before he speaks.

“She ran out to the store with Jada and Piper.” Nodding slightly I scrub my hand over my face.

“She ok?” Blowing out a breath, I look up at him shaking my head.

“I don’t know brother. This shit storm just blew up like a fuckin’ hurricane. Where the hell did she come from and why now?” Dropping on the stool next to him, I run my hand over my face.

“Don’t know. Had Torch dump her ass out and then follow her. She didn’t go back to the Shadows; she went to that roach motel over off 89. Got him and Timmy over there watchin’ her.” Nodding I knew Creed would do all he could to figure this shit out.

“You’re not alone Tank. You’re my VP, my other half brother. When this club kicked my ass you are the one that kept me grounded. Aside from Jada, you and that little girl in there are my family. I’d put myself in front of a bullet for that girl or you.” The words leave his mouth and I know every one of them are true. Creed doesn’t talk a lot shit without backing it up and this time isn’t any different.

“I hope we don’t have to go that far but I got that feelin’ Creed.” He nods his head. He knows me too well to let any kind of feeling I have get brushed away. I’ve been right far too many times before.

“I hate this question but I need to ask it.” Glancing over at him, I wait for it.

“When the shit goes down, how do you want Candy handled?” His eyes connect with mine. A slight shudder runs through my body.

“I can’t be selfish here. I’d like to watch her rot in hell for takin’ my baby away from me but that’s not my decidin’ factor here. The fact that she took her to these places and let them hurt my baby? That’s what decides her fate.” I watch Creed for any sign that he doesn’t agree with me on this one but when I watch that evil grin snake across his face I know he’s with me 100%.

“And rot she will.” Creed extends his hand to me. I take it in mine as he shakes out his promise.

               Chapter 25

The air turns colder at night now. Somehow, I find a comfort in it. Knowing that the air can chill my skin makes me calm down a few pegs.

I came outside to run the perimeter check that we’ve been doing for a couple weeks now.

Candy went back to Shadows after a few days at that hotel and we haven’t heard anything since. You would think that would comfort me in some way but it doesn’t it fucking worries me more.

I know I should be thankful that they haven’t tried anything else but that undeniable nagging is still at the back of my mind. It never goes away as much as I’d like it to.

I finish the last of the checks before I head back inside. I have opted to stay at the clubhouse most of the time since the security is better. I don’t want to take the chance of anyone finding my house and showing up.

“You ready for tomorrow?” Piper smiles as I walk towards the bar.

“Hell no. That shit came too fast.” Grabbing a beer, I sit down next to him.

“She’s growin’ up brother.” Piper smiles like a proud grandfather. I guess in a way he is.

Tomorrow is Bella’s birthday. 17 years old. My birthday was a few weeks ago but there is absolutely nothing to celebrate with my birth. Bella on the other hand, she deserves so much more.

“I know it. They back yet?” Piper shakes his head before lighting up a joint.

Jada took the girls out to look for a dress for Bella to wear tomorrow for her big day. Creed and I went out earlier too to shop for a gift.

Hell knows I’m not the gift buying expert.

“I heard Cher talkin’ to Jada. Did you know that her ex has been callin’ her? I’m not tryin’ to cause any trouble Tank but that girl looked shaken up.” My eyes dart to his and I know he’s not lying.

My heart slams in my chest on the verge of breaking free as I think about it.

“Not since the lake.” Gritting it out between my teeth I swear my blood pressure has to be through the roof these days.

“I think this was recent. Sorry brother. Not my business.” Piper turns to look the other way as I laugh pulling his attention back.

“Everythin’ in this damn club is your business Piper. You’re the old timer here. You keep us boys up on our game.” Slapping his back, he smiles and laughs.

There are times that I think Piper and some of the older guys feel neglected and left out since Creed became president. Sometimes they just need a little reminder that they are still one of us.

“You boys are on top of that game without me.” I stand up and start to walk towards the kitchen.

“Not without all your input.” Shaking my head as I walk into the kitchen, I wonder what the hell has gotten into me.

Why the fuck am I in such a good mood? Maybe because my daughter is turning 17 tomorrow. Or maybe because I finally have her back after losing so many years with her.

Hell I don’t know what it is but I think I might just like it.

“Did you need something?” One of the Angel chasers smiles at me while licking her lips.

“Not anymore. You did your service.” With that, her smile fades and mine returns.

“I know all about Candy. I know what the plans are.” Her words hit me like a punch to the gut. Within seconds, I’m on her, pinning her against the wall.

“Why don’t you enlighten me then, yeah?” I watch her tongue come out of her mouth and streak across her ruby red lips as she stares me in the eye.

“Why don’t you give me what I want and I will sing like a little bird.” Her hand travels down my stomach stopping to massage my dick through my jeans.

“I think we can skip that part and you can tell me what the fuck I need to know.” Chyna, the little angel chaser just smiles before she shakes her head.

“I don’t give information away for free.” Leaning into me, she runs her tongue across my bottom lip.

“Don’t you want to ask me what I want?” Her hand tightens on my dick and hell help me I want to choke this bitch too.

“I don’t like to play games. I could snap your neck and not think twice about it. How about you stop this little game and talk.” My hands tighten on her shoulders as hers tighten on my dick. Fuck me!

“You give me what I want, I talk. You don’t, I walk.” She licks her lips again before I lean in closer to her.

“I have an old lady.” Her smirk tells me all I need to know. She doesn’t care what I have.

“She isn’t here. I saw her leave.” Going against my better judgement, I press my body into hers. Grinding my dick into her stomach, she smiles up at me.

“What exactly do you want?” Trying to calm my nerves and play her little game seems to be working. At least for her anyways.

“I want this.” Gripping my dick harder I want to fucking scream. Shit I am a man after all.

“And I want $10,000 in cash. I want out of this town.” Now that was something I could do.

“I can get you the cash.” Chyna giggles slightly as she looks up at me.

“If I don’t get this, I don’t need that.”

              Chapter 26

My head says to do it and get it over with. My heart says to not lose what I have with Cher over this slut. I don’t know which part to listen to anymore.

Angel chasers are all the same but one thing they don’t typically lie about is the information they have. I have learned over the years that these bitches will fake a pregnancy, hell, they even fake a stroke, but they don’t fake the information that flows between them for fear of losing their lives or their privileges at any club around.

“I give you this, you walk? You give me what you have and that’s it?” I try to keep calm and reason this out within myself. I need that information more than I need this air to breath.

“That’s right. Give me what I want, I give you want you need.”  Her lips come up to touch my neck as my blood runs cold. I don’t want this whore on me or near me for that matter.

I let her lick and suck at my neck for a few minutes before I decide I can’t do this shit. I guess I thought about it a little too late.

“What the fuck!” Cher’s screams pierce straight into me. Chyna doesn’t ease up on what she’s doing as I turn to see Cher standing in the doorway.

“Don’t get it mixed up Cher.” I try to calm her before the rage I see in her eyes take over. Did I think about doing this? Hell yeah but in the end I decided against it. So why the hell is this whore still sucking my neck?

I push Chyna off with one arm as I start to walk towards Cher. Cher surprises the shit out of me when she grabs the meat clever off the table next to her. Holding it out in front of her, she sees red. I know that look.

“All I wanted was to be loved. I never asked for all this other bullshit. I never asked to be locked in a fucking room for years! You motherfuckers are all the same.” Looking me in the eye, she’s comparing me to Thomas again and that shit doesn’t work with me. I warned her about that shit.

Shaking my head, I take another step towards her.

“Don’t you fuckin’ dare compare me to him again. I am not him Cher!” Creed must have heard all the yelling because he moves in slowly and stealthily behind her.

“You say you love me but then you’re in here fucking some whore in the kitchen? You are no better than he was.” Her words hurt something deep inside of me. I love this woman there is no doubt about it.

“I do love you Cher. You don’t get it!” Taking another step closer, Creed moves. He grabs Cher around the waist making her drop the knife to the floor.

“Don’t you fucking touch me either!” Cher screams as tears fall down her cheeks.

Moving in I grab her away from Creed and slam her little body against mine.

“You don’t know shit Cher. Creed, don’t let that bitch walk. She knows somethin’.” Creed nods his head and turns his attention to Chyna while I lift Cher and carry her out of the kitchen.

Just like I thought there’s a crowd gathered outside the door.

“She ok dad?” Bella looks so concerned and I hate that she has to see this play out.

“She will be.” Cher fights me the whole fucking way down the hall until I go into the room kicking the door closed.

She thinks I don’t love her? Oh I’ll show her what I feel for her.

Throwing her on the bed roughly, I strip out of everything in record time. Cher lies on the bed on her stomach with half her ass showing in that skirt she has on.

A low growl leaves my throat but her crying masks it.

I grab her hips roughly, yanking her into position before I line my dick up behind her.

“You have any objections?” Slapping her ass roughly, I wait for her to say something, anything.

When I’ve had enough waiting I slam my dick into her. My hands grip her hips so fucking roughly I know she will have marks. My marks.

Thrusting into her harder and harder I take out every bit of frustration, I feel on her pussy. I don’t care that she didn’t ask for it, hell I asked her to say no.

“Tell me again how much I don’t fuckin’ love you!” Pumping my dick so deep into her she cries out from the pain, I want her to say it again.

“Tell me CHER!” Harder and harder. I can’t control myself. Some primal need has taken over and I want her to feel every piece of me inside of her.

“Last chance darlin’.” Gripping her hips tighter, I feel my dick swell. It’s such an overwhelming feeling that I hate for it to end.

With one last rough thrust, I explode inside of her. Every pent up emotion that I haven’t been able to let out, every ounce of pain that I’ve felt, it’s all inside of her now.

I pull out of her quickly before walking into the bathroom and starting the shower. Making my way back out I find Cher curled in a ball in the middle of the bed.

Reaching for her, I pull her up and stand her in front of me as I begin to strip her clothes off. Piece by piece I reveal that sexy body to myself. She is magnificent.

“Don’t you ever compare me to that motherfucker again.” Her eyes come up to meet mine before I lift her and carry her to the bathroom.

Setting her in the shower I climb in behind her. My hands roam her body freely as she stands still. Annoyed with all of this bullshit I spin her to face me.

“You want out Cher? Say the fuckin’ words. I’m not him. I’m not holdin’ you here.” As much as I want to wipe the tears from her eyes, I don’t let myself do it. I watch her face and wait for her to answer.

“I can’t be with a cheater. I know how the club works. My dad did it to my mom so many times Tank. She always acted like she didn’t know but she did.” Finally allowing myself, I reach up and grip her face in my hands.

“I’m not a cheater. Did I think about it? Yeah, I did but not for the fuckin’ sex Cher. She said she has information about Candy. I wanted it. I thought about fuckin’ her until she couldn’t walk but do you know why I didn’t?” Her eyes fill with new tears as she shakes her head. Damn this woman is hard headed.

“I didn’t fuck her because I love you. In my heart, I knew I couldn’t do that to you Cher. Don’t you fuckin’ understand that you are mine?” My lips come down to crush hers and I can only hope she understands what I’m trying to say to her.

I don’t think I have ever wanted anyone the way I want Cher. She brings out a side of me that has been missing for so many years. I just need her to understand that she does this to me.

             Chapter 27

I got Cher calmed down and stayed with her until she fell asleep. I hated seeing her that way; it kills a piece of me.

Making sure she’s tucked in and warm, I head out into the main room to see what happened with Chyna. I never thought I would see the bitch sitting at the bar with a beer in her hand.

“What the fuck is this?” Pointing at her my eyes land on Creed’s.

“Workin’ out a little deal. Passin’ her the prospect instead of you.” He chuckles as I smile. That little shit is finally going to get off my daughter for a while.

Thinking about it, he isn’t little at all. Joey is pretty well built for being a kid. Still in my book, he’s a little shit.

“Now that sounds like a plan.” Joey stands there looking pissed as hell when something hits me. Does he really care about Bella? Or does he really not want what Chyna has to offer?

“What else?” Grabbing a beer I round the bar and lean against it next to Creed.

“She wants $10,000. Told her she was fuckin’ out of her mind.” Creed glares at her over his shoulder, which makes me laugh.

“What did you counter?” Taking a long pull from the bottle he chuckles.

“I countered with Joey.” Creed laughs and I almost choke on my beer.  Running my hand over my mouth, I wipe away what I damn near spit everywhere.

“What about Joey?” Bella walks in from the kitchen with a cookie in her hand. I smile at the innocents that radiates off of her.
