Chapter 3

Karen hung up from her phone call with her father. She had heard Jax's bike driving off. She wished she could have stayed and talked to him longer. He seemed like he had wanted to stay and talk to her. She was torn between wanting more encounters with him and wanting to see him less. The more she saw him the more she knew her crush would develop. Karen didn't want her heart broken over a crush.

She was so caught up in her thoughts that she didn't hear anyone behind her, so it caught her off guard when a male rushed up behind her and put his hand over her mouth. Karen tried to scream but stopped when she felt the tip of the knife on her throat. "Be quiet, don't scream" a husky male voice said. He pushed her into the alley way and shoved her up against a brick building hard. "I won't scream. Please don't hurt me. I don't have any money on me" Karen stated scared. Her attacker laughed. "Don't worry peaches. I don't want your money."

His hands went to the waistband on her pants. Karen instinctively at this time raised her knee to kick him. He punched her leg down and gave her a right hook on her left cheek. Karen spit out the blood from the punch. She wasn't going down without a fight. When he was admiring his work thus far on her she saw the opportunity and gave him a right hook that made him stagger. Without giving him a chance to get his footing back she kicked him in between his legs. Karen started laughing at this moment. She hadn't practiced in a long time but her father had put her through some self-defense classes when she was 12.

During her laughing her attacker stood up, ran and knocked her to the ground. "YOU BITCH! YOU WILL PAY!" He yelled and continuously beat her. The last thing Karen remembered before blacking out was reaching up with her hand and scratching at her attackers face trying to get any DNA she could get off of him…

Jax walked into the club house. It was around 12:30 now. The hang arounds, sweet butts, and crow eaters were there and in full swing. He walked through said his hellos and hugged his brothers. The president of the club and his stepfather Clay whistled to get everyone's attention. "Church, boys!" He yelled. All the table patched members followed him into the room they referred to as church.

"Sorry boys I know that some of you were in bed, with your families, and or getting you some pussy. The reason why I called this meeting is because I don't know if you all know of what's going on in Charming but someone is getting brave and are preying on our women. To this date there have been 10 rapes in the last 3 weeks. We aren't sure who is doing it but we need to find out and put a stop to it." Clay broke to the table. He knew there was no point in taking his time. He himself would rather be at home sleeping or fucking his wife. "We haven't heard anything in the news. Why is it being brought to our attention now?" Tig asked. "It's being brought to our attention because they tried to rape one of the school teachers and someone reached out to Gemma. From here on out we will all start looking for anyone that is suspicious. If you see any female walking alone at night, become her buddy and walk her to her destination. We need to protect the women of Charming. If they tell you no follow them at a safe distance. WE HAVE TO STOP THIS!" Clay said getting mad. "Shit! I wish we had known about this earlier. I have to go." Jax said getting up. He had to go make sure Karen made it home. Clay stood up "Where are you going? I haven't called church over yet."

"I have to go make sure Karen. The girl at the video store isn't lying in Charming somewhere. I stopped and dropped movies off on my way here. She was closing up and walking by herself" Jax said and then proceeded to walk out the door. He was pissed. Had he known this info beforehand he would have walked or given Karen a ride home.

Jax knew that Karen wouldn't be at the video store but he drove there and decided that he would walk the way he had seen her taking. He got about two blocks down and heard smacking sounds. He turned into an alleyway and saw man on top of something. "HEY! YOU! PUT YOUR HANDS IN THE AIR AND TURN AROUND!" Jax yelled. The male figure stopped midway in a punch and turned towards Jax. "What the fuck to do think you are gonna do about it pretty boy?" the man smarted off back. This man must have not been from Charming because he was talking to the wrong guy. Jax pulled his gun out without even thinking and shot the guy twice in the head. He pulled out his phone. "I got one guy. Get over here quick. The alley past the pizza place, I will be at the hospital with the female."

Jax called 911 and then went looked down at Karen having his worse fear confirmed. The guy had done a number on her. He could already see the swelling on her face. He heard the ambulance pull up. As the paramedics did their job we walked over to the body of her attacker. He didn't see any distinguishing marks on him, but he could see that Karen got a good punch or two in and huge scratch down the side of his neck. Karen knew that at some point in time she had lost the battle but was smart enough that she was going to get some kind of evidence. Jax looked into her back pocket and got her license. He memorized her address and then gave it to a paramedic. "I am gonna go let her father know and we will meet you at the hospital." He said and got to his bike back and headed the three blocks over to her house.

Jax knocked on Karen's door. A middle aged man answered. "Can I help you?" Collin Kellan asked the blonde biker at his door. He knew who Jax was and didn't like what he had heard. "Yeah, you need to follow me to the hospital. Karen is there and she needs to you" Jax said and turned around and walked to his bike. The color from Collin's face had drained as he took in what the biker had to tell him. He grabbed his keys and walked over to his car and he followed him to the hospital. He didn't know what to think. His little girl was hurt.
