Never Again Ch. 5
Audrey was watching Abel sleep, over the last few days, she took it upon herself to take care of him. After Bobby's party, she got the call from Unser, being half asleep and laying on Kozik, it took a moment for her brain to kick into gear. As she watched the boy sleep in the guest room, her mind raced, what could she do to one protect Gemma and her secret. It was killing her, but whatever she was feeling about the secret, Gemma was dealing with something 1000x worse. But she vowed that she would give Zobel a few days, but she would find everything on him, his daughter, Weston, everything.
Looking at Abel, Audrey couldn't help but think back to the that night. How scared Gemma looked, how broken. The rage that was settled deep in her gut, she knew that it would be swift and painful, for that she was certain.
FLASHBACK
Laying on top of Kozik, Audrey was tired, she stayed up later than she normally would, but figuring it was for Bobby. Hearing the light snore coming from him, she couldn't help but laugh, this man was a badass biker, willing to beat, fight, or kill whoever threatened his club, and apparently, she fell into this category as well.
She could feel her body start to give into the sleep, but as she could feel her eyes start to get heavy, the light ringing of her phone pulled her from the zen moment she was having. Reaching over, she didn't want to wake Herman. Looking at the phone, she didn't recognize the number, but figured if someone was going to call her at 2am, it had to be important.
"Hello?"
"Audrey, this is Chief Unser. You alone?"
Blinking rapidly, "Sorta, he's asleep. Is my sister or her husband, OK?"
"Yes, as far as I know. Look, I need you to get to Gemma's. Right now."
"I'll be right there."
Disconnecting the call, she looked down at a sleeping Kozik, not wanting to wake him, she grabbed a piece of paper, writing him a note that she was called to go see Gemma.
Carefully dressing herself, she quietly made her way out of his dorm, locking his door as she shut it, she moved as quickly and quietly as she could through the clubhouse, grateful that they were either too drunk or occupied with ladies to even notice her.
Pulling into Gemma's driveway, Audrey looked around, she didn't see Clay's bike, only Unser's police cruiser. Making her way up the door, she lightly knocked, she didn't have to wait even a second before the door swung open, revealing a very distraught Police Chief.
"Come on in." His voice was shaking.
Following him deeper into the house, Audrey found Gemma curled up on the couch, face beaten, "Jesus, Gemma, what happened?" Making her way over to her friend, sitting down, she could see that she was barely holding on.
Looking up at Wayne, she knew he had an idea, but she couldn't say it, not yet "Take a guess. Told by some assholes it was a message to the club." Staring down the women that had become her friend, "I need your help, this can't get out, if does these animals win."
Audrey swallowed, nodding, turning to Chief Unser, "Where's her car?" she asked, her brain going into survival mode.
"Off the old cable road. Why?" he asked, not sure why that even mattered.
Nodding, "Go, make it look like her car was in accident, we need to explain her face." Pulling out her phone, her eyes found Gemma, "You need to be seen, I know someone that won't ask any questions." Sending a text, smiling that the response was instant. "OK, we are going to the clinic," looking at the Chief, "Once you wreck the car, call Clay, let him know that Gemma is being seen." Standing up, she held out her hand towards Gemma, "Let's go make sure you're not more seriously injured."
Gemma was holding herself together, but having Audrey come, and take over, she knew that she made the right call. Following her to the car, she sat quietly, waiting for the questions that she knew must be brewing in that brain of hers, but she kept quiet, perhaps that's what made Gemma snap, "Aren't you going to ask for the fucking details?"
Audrey knew that she was raw, emotional, scared, and that she was lashing out, "No. Not unless you want to." Keeping her eyes on the road, she kept checking the mirrors, making sure that she wasn't being followed.
A tear escaped, "I was ganged raped, by Zobelle's guys, I recognized the one with the neck tattoo, upside down peace sign. They were at the lot last night. You saw them, the guys in the Mercedes."
Gripping her steering wheel tighter, all she wanted to do was turn this car around, and kill him, but right now, Gemma needed her to be here, strong, stable. "Did they say why?" hoping to get some of the pieces together.
Taking a cig out of her purse, she lit it, smiling when Audrey rolled down the window, "They wanted it to be a message to the club, stop selling guns to black." Taking a big hit of her cig, she blew out the smoke, "Can't let them win, can't let the club know, they would go to war, and not have a clue who they are against."
Seeing the clinic and her friend, she just nodded, stepping out, she helped Gemma out, and walked to her friend, "This doesn't get a paper trial, or spoken about. You do this, we are even."
Nodding her head, "Deal." Looking over the woman, "I'm Dr. Hahn, let's get you checked out." Leading them into the clinic, she knew what happened, it was obvious based on her injuries. She knew who was on her exam table, and when the SONs realized what happened to their mother, wife, matriarch, blood would spill the streets, but that wasn't her issue, she was just going to be a doctor.
Hours passed, Audrey watched over Gemma as she slept, grateful that the doctor gave her a strong sedative for the night, and for the next couple. Hearing the bikes roll up to the house, she knew that Clay was probably looking for his wife, making sure that she was OK, grateful that Unser took care of the car.
Standing up, she watched as he, Jax, Kozik, came into the house, trying to figure out what happened. Taking a deep breath, she smiled, played off the accident, saying she looked worse than what was really happening to her friend, getting a hug from each of the guys, and a kiss from her man, Audrey felt wrong, but for now, she would die before speaking of what Gemma went through.
END FLASHBACK
Shutting the door the guest room, Audrey made her way to her room, and quickly jumped into the shower, and cleaned herself. Doing a quick shower, she wrapped the towel around herself, and dressed in her pjs, and crawled into bed, wishing that Kozik was home, but they were on a run, but hopefully he would be home tomorrow morning. Closing her eyes, she planned her attack on Zobelle, by the time she hacked into his life, he wouldn't have anything to hide behind.
Days passed, but eventually she found something, following the trail, she realized why Juice couldn't find anything on the guy, looking at the lines of code, this was government official. Smiling at the breadcrumbs, she knew that she had something. Now, she needed a way to let the club know, without getting her ass beat for overstepping. Packing up her shit, she knew that she needed to talk to Gemma.
Heading towards the lot, she knew that she was going to be pissed to, but one problem at a time, but she was hoping that by finding a weak point in his armor, it would make him seem less dangerous to her.
As she pulled into the lot, she could see that Happy, Kozik, Tig, and Opie were sitting at the table. While she wanted to run straight to Gemma, she knew that if she didn't stop by and at least kiss her man, that would be suspect. Grabbing her bag, she made her way to them, "Hey boys." Leaning down, she kissed Kozik, "Hi." Laughing as he pulled her into his lap.
"Pretty girl. What brings you by?" he asked, not that it mattered, he was glad to hold her, whenever or wherever he could.
Shrugging her shoulders, "Got a little stir crazy at the house, figured I'd come by help Gemma with some paperwork." Looking around she could see that her car wasn't on the lot, "but it seems that I should have called ahead," giving him a smile, "I guess you'll have to find a way to entertain me." She teased.
Not even thinking, he lifted her up and tossed her over his shoulder, slapping her ass he walked through the clubhouse, not stopping until he reached his dorm, slamming the door shut, he tossed her on the bed, effectively stripping himself and her quickly.
Audrey watched as he stood above her, she loved it when he was soft and gentle with her, but when he was rough, aggressive, dominating, it tapped into primal part of her brain. Spreading her legs for him, she knew what he wanted, "Please, I need your cock, baby. Please."
Stroking his cock, Kozik looked down at the woman on his bed, she was his, she was perfect. Growling as he heard her beg for him, "You want me to fuck you?" he asked, leaning over her.
Nodding her head, "Yes. Please." Her eyes watching him, Audrey never took her eyes off him.
Eyeing her, his eyes slowly taking her body in, her skin was a pale white, tits were larger than her body should be able to carry, thick thighs, pink pussy, flared hips, and that fucking ass. "On your fucking knees." His voice was harsh, but he was running off pure instinct now.
Rolling over, she arched her back up as she brought her knees under her body. Her breathing was starting to accelerate, not saying anything, she waited. Smiling when she felt his knuckles touching her pussy. Biting her lip, she let her head fall forward, enjoying the sensation of him teasing her pussy.
Watching her do as she was told, was enough to almost make him bust his nut, but he would wait until he was in her tight pussy. His pussy. "Fuck, so wet. Whose pussy is this?" he asked, giving her ass a little slap.
Gasping at the contact, Audrey shook with anticipation, "Yours. Herman. Only yours."
Lining his cock up with her body, he didn't even give her any warning, surging his dick forward, enjoying the primal scream that escaped her mouth, it sent shock waves through his body. "FUCK." He growled out.
Bottoming out, his balls hit her clit, letting his body relax, he wanted to make this good for his girl, pulling out, he snapped his hips back into her bringing his hand down on her ass as he did. Doing this over and over, switching cheeks, groaning as her pussy got wetter, "Cum on my cock baby." He growled out, his body was on the edge, gripping her hips, he knew that she would have bruises from this, but he didn't care, and the moans coming from her, he knew that she didn't either. Bring his hand down on her ass, grinning as she screamed out.
Audrey was shaking, but as he hit her ass again, her body shook, screaming out his name, she couldn't hold herself up, she felt a bit forward, which only made the pressure she was feeling in her lower belly more intense, her body coiled, and she could feel herself grinding her pussy on his cock, trying to extend the orgasm that was working it's way through her body.
Kozik had to hold onto her, he felt like passing out, her pussy gripped him so fucking tight, it caused him to see stars, but it was what he was waiting for, slapping her ass one more time, he felt his balls empty deep inside her. "FUCK AUDREY." He groaned out, slow stroking his cock, wanting to make sure that every ounce of his cum stayed in her body. But his knees were about to give out, falling to the side, he brought her with him, wrapping his arms around her.
Audrey couldn't hep but take slow breaths, her brain slowly starting to fire, "I will never get tired of that."
Laughing into her neck, "Good, cause I'm doing that until the day the Reaper comes." He knew she was it, and soon, he would ask her to marry him.
But that would have to wait until they could figure out this Zobelle shit. At each turn, they were out moved. It was something that they couldn't figure out.
Audrey could feel his body tense, carefully rolling over, "What's going on?" watching his face, knowing that they agreed to full disclosure, she was sure he wasn't going to lie.
Letting out his concerns, "I hate this baby, he's not like anyone we've come across, and he's squeaky clean. He's playing a different game."
Realizing this could be her only opportunity to offer her help, "Look, I know you hate this idea, but let me have a crack at hacking into his life, Juice is great, but I'm better. At least bring it to the table. I can help. Safely, behind a computer." Hoping that it something that he would at least bring up.
Hearing Happy bang on the door, saying that it was time for Church, "Be right there." Looking back at Audrey, kissing her, he quickly dressed, as he slipped on his kutte, smiling as she put on her clothes, "I'll bring it to the table." Leaning down he kissed her again, "I love you, Audrey." Smiling at her face, with that he left the room.
He loves me. Oh. Boy. Not that it was a problem, but holy shit, she didn't expect that. Leaving the room, she watched as they shut the doors to Church, Audrey found herself sitting at the bar, "Kip, can I get a beer, please."
Smiling as he slid it towards her, she couldn't keep the goofy grin off her face. He loved her. She wanted to go find Gemma, but she would wait until Church ended before bringing it to her, this way, neither of them would have to keep another lie from them.
INSIDE CHURCH
Clay was murderous, they were played twice, and were nowhere near finding anything on Zobelle. Hitting the table, "FIND ME SOMETHING!" he yelled, "This shit head comes into our town, demanding us to change how we do business. No, FUCK THAT."
Kozik hated what he was about to do, but Audrey was right, she was an exceptional hacker, "Clay, let Audrey have a shot at Zobelle. She's a world class hacker." Looking over at Juice, "I love you bro, but she's on another level."
Jax rubbed his goatee, he liked the girl, looking at Clay, "Yeah, I have no problems, but she does it here," pointing to Juice, "He's there watching. Perhaps she can teach him something."
Happy didn't like it, "Puts her in danger." Looking at Kozik, "You good with that?"
He could feel his lip twitch, did he really think that he would put her in danger? "How, she's insolated in the club, they wouldn't know it was her or Juice." Turning towards Juice, "Is there away for them to know?"
Shaking his head, "No, not really, each hacker has their own way of doing shit, but I mean, it would be astronomical for them to have someone with her skillset."
Clay looked around the table, "Do I really need to put this to a vote?" he asked the table. Nodding when he could see that they all just said yes. "Opie, go find her."
"Audrey."
Turning her head, she could see Opie indicating that she was needed, grabbing her bag, she knew by the body language that they agreed for her to hack. Getting off the barstool, she made her way inside the inner sanctum.
Looking around she could see them all watching her, but giving Kozik a small smile, her eyes found Clay's.
He watched her, "The club needs you. Can you hack into Zobelle's life?" Getting straight to the point.
Nodding, "Yes." Pulling out her laptop, "Where do you want me to do this?" she asked.
Chuckling, "Come prepared?" he teased, but indicated to take a seat near Juice and her old man.
Sitting in the chair that Juice pulled up, she lightly touched Herman's shoulder, "Always. Wouldn't be a good hacker if I didn't have a computer with me."
Opening her laptop, she checked the internet lines, making sure that they weren't compromised, once she felt that it was secure, she opened the dark net, much to the surprise of Juice.
"YOU have access to the darknet?" he asked, his voice raised an octave.
Giving him a sly smile, "You don't? After I do this, I'll show you." Taking off her panda necklace that she always wore, it was a hidden USB Drive, putting into the computer, she watched as 200 different country servers popped up, cloaking her movements.
"You are amazing." Juice said. His eyes watching her as she moved through the programs, but what made him almost choke on his tongue, "ARE YOU HACKING INTO FEDS DATABASE?" his eyes damn near bugged out of his head.
Looking around the room, she could see that what she was doing was impressing some, confusing others. Shrugging her shoulders, "Yes." Pointing to the lines of code that she knew he found, "Do you see this?"
Nodding his head, "Yes. What is that?"
Looking over at Clay, "This is lines of code that is used by the US Marshalls." Typing a few more things, smiling. Her eyes finding Kozik, giving him a nod, "Ethan Zobelle, is a Federal Witness." Turning her computer towards the men, "In exchange for his testimony on certain Aryan Factions, the Feds let him deal Heroin." Hitting another key, "That's why he's a step ahead of you, he's protected." She could see that each one of them was on another level of rage, but she needed to drive the point home, "He's using Weston and his crew," pointing to the file, "he partners with muscle, they take the fall, and anyone that gets in his way, he crushes them, but not in traditional manners, he's not going to come at you head on, he's going to bait you into reacting and let the law handle you."
Clay looked at the woman, gritting his teeth, "Print this out." He watched as she hit a few keys and the printer started immediately.
"Done." Her eyes turning towards her old man. Giving him a smile, her eyes found Clay. "Is there anything else?"
Nodding, "Can you set him up?"
Tilting her head, "Like digitally trip him up, to have his federal protection off him?"
"Yeah."
"The only way the Feds would drop him, if they no longer needed him." Rubbing her temples, "I doubt he would be stupid enough to leave his information where anyone could find it, I'm guessing he has it either on a USB drive, or it's in his head. But what I can do, is start hacking his financials, and once you have him where you need him, I can donate it to the SAMCRO fund." Smiling at the faces of the men at the table.
Clay nodded, "Do that." Turning to the table, "Covert warfare gentleman, let's get this asshole. He want's us to chase our asses, let's do the opposite. We need to see if Hale's in his pocket?"
Perking up, "Jacob Hale?" she asked.
Clay's eyes found hers, "Yes. Why?"
Swallowing, "I recently fixed his computers, I remembered his IP address, I can check to see if they are in business." Turning her computer around, hitting a few keys, frowning, "Yeah, some shared emails, so on paper its two businessmen, but the Hales hate SAMCRO, and Zobelle isn't an idiot," looking up at him, "May I offer a suggestion?"
Nodding.
"Show this to anyone you know that deals in H." Seeing their faces, "I know that's not SAMCRO, but in your line of work, you know people. Take out his support."
Nodding his head, Clay looked around the table, he could see that they were in agreement, turning to Jax, "Let's spread the word, quietly." Banging the gavel, dismissing the men. His eyes finding hers's, "Thanks kid."
Giving him a small smile, she felt Herman take her hand and lead her out to the bar, his eyes finding hers, "You did great pretty girl." Kissing her, he couldn't help but smile, she was built for this life.
"I love you too. Just in case you were wondering." Smiling at his face.
But the moment was short lived, soon the clubhouse was flooded with ATF Agents, and a very pissed of blonde Agent grabbed Clay. Audrey laid on the floor, hands on her head, her eyes finding Kozik who looked murderous as the other agent pulled Audrey to her feet.
Keeping her temper in check, she couldn't help but snort as the guy asked her why she was at the clubhouse, "It's a repair shop, so, getting my car repaired."
His eyes could see that she was being a smartass, "Do you want to go to jail?"
Rolling her eyes, "Legally you can hold me for 24 hours, but since I've done nothing, I'm sure my lawyer would have a field day with wrongful imprisonment, Agent."
Letting her go, he stepped over the men, "Let them up, we have Clay Morrow. We need a search warrant for this shit hole." Eyeing her, "I'll see you soon."
Keeping her voice calm, "Looking forward to it." She watched as they all got off the floor, her eyes finding Herman. "I'm OK."
Kozik pulled her close to him, knowing that if that man even came close to her again, he'd kill him.
Audrey let him hold her, she knew that he needed, it, but hearing how stressed Jax was, there was something here that a warrant could find, following them outside, watching as Clay was put in the back of a cruiser, she could see that there was a septic tank truck here, turning to Jax, "Whatever may or may not be here," pointing to the truck, "that could be a solution."
Kissing Kozik on his lips, "I'm going to find Gemma." Turning towards the office, she could see the older woman holding herself together by sheer will. "I have some news." Walking into the office, she shut the door, and downloaded Gemma on what happened in Church. Hopefully it would bring her one step closer to feeling like herself.
