Chapter 3
"Zobell?" Alvarez asks. He looks at me and asks "How do you know Zobell?" You can see the anger in his eyes. Angel speaks up. "He's the one that took Tristan. Let his boys beat her and rape her. They were keeping her in a Goddamn cage." Angel says, protecting me. Alvarez looks at me and asks "That true?" I nod my head yes. He sees Angel holding my hand and asks "You claiming?" Alvarez asks. "That a problem?" Angel asks. "No Mano. Keep her safe. Shit like she's been through ain't gonna be easy for her." Marcus says and looks at me and says "You're familia now Mija. You need anything, you let us know." I nod and say "Thank you." I feel Angel squeeze my hand and Marcus says "I'll have my Old Lady send some clothes to your clubhouse for your Old Lady here. She'll need them." Marcus says. "Thanks Padrino." Angel says. He looks at me again and says "Anything you need." I nod and Angel shakes his hand. "Now, what do you know about Zobell?" Bishop asks again. "He's untouchable with the law. Rat. Hired us years ago to protect him from the SONS. Didn't find out he was a rat until after." Marcus says. "Why did he need protection from the SONS?" Coco asks. "Had their Presidente's wife raped." Marcus says. "Shit." Taza says and I tense up. Angel pulls me closer and whispers "He won't get you. I promise." I wrap my arms around him and hold on tight to him as he holds me close. "We gotta get this piece of shit." Coco says as he looks at how scared I am. "Let's head back to the clubhouse and get a plan together." Bishop says. "Chico will meet you there with the intel we have on Zobell." Marcus says. "Thanks." Riz says as they all shake hands.
We get back to the clubhouse and Angel leads me to his dorm. Walking inside he locks the door and leads me to the bed. Sitting down, he pulls me beside him and says "We're going to find Zobell and handle him. He won't hurt you again." Angel says and I just sit there. "He had another woman raped, Angel. He had me raped. How many other women has he done this to?" I ask. "I don't know Sweetheart but he won't do this to you again or anyone else once we find him." he tells me. I take his hand and ask "Why did you claim me? You don't know me." I say. "I couldn't leave you there and claiming you is the only way to protect you. Look, I need someone by my side. You need someone to protect you. It makes sense but Tristan, I'll protect you with my life, okay?" He says. I look at him and place a hand on his face and say "I know you will Angel. I trust you." I say. I take a chance and lean forward and place a soft kiss to his lips and he kisses me back just as softly. He deepens the kiss just a little and I let him but he doesn't push for more. We hear a knock on the door and hear "Church Mano." Angel looks at me and says "I want you to stay in the main room. We'll handle this." I nod and he kisses me one more time before we head to the main room.
Walking to one of the tables, I take a seat and I see Coco watching me. Angel kisses me again and walks to where Coco is standing. "You okay?" Angel asks Coco. "She just reminds me of my sister man." Coco says and Angel pats him on his shoulder before they head into church. Once inside, they go over the intel to try to locate Zobell. An hour later, the guys come out of church and Angel and Coco walk over to me. "We know where he is. Stay here and stay inside." Angel tells me. "Layla will stay close to you." Angel tells me. I stand and hug him close. "Please be careful." He kisses me softly and says "I will. Be back soon." and I nod. I look at the rest of the guys and say "Please be safe." They all nod but as they go to walk away, I grab Angel's hand and he sees the panic in my eyes. Cupping my face he says "I'll be back. I promise." before he places a quick kiss to my lips and heads out the door.
Pulling up to the cabin that they have confirmed that Zobell is hidden in. "This one's mine." Angel says and they all nod. Looking around, they confirm he's alone and they crash inside. Creeper takes him down and Gilly helps him tie Zobell to a chair. Smacking him to wake him up, Bishop gets in his face and says "Wake up you piece of racist shit." Zobell looks at him and asks "What do you wetbacks want?" Bishop smirks and says "Thought we'd have a little talk about a woman you might know. Does the name Tristan ring a bell?" Zobell smirks and says "My boys said she was their favorite. Fought back just enough." When he says this, Angel clenches his fists and EZ nudges him. He looks at his brother and EZ nods and Angel nods back. "What were you going to do with her?" Riz asks. "I plan on selling her to the highest bidder." Zobell says. "Not anymore. Have you heard from your boys lately?" Coco asks with a smirk and Zobell doesn't answer. "Heard they were feeling a little caged in." Taza said. Angel walks over and says "Do you know who she is to me?" Zobell doesn't answer. "She's my Old Lady and I'm gonna fucking kill you for what you did to her." Angel seethes. He pulls out his gun and empties the clip into Zobell's chest, killing him. Angel lowers his gun and walks over to Zobell's dead body and spits on him. "Pussy ass mother fucker." They dispose of the body and head back to the clubhouse.
As soon as they walk into the clubhouse, I am sitting at the bar drinking coffee. I look up as the door opens and see the guys walk back in. Seeing Angel, I stand up and he walks to me and pulls me as close as he can and I let him. Kissing me softly, he nods and I know that means Zobell is handled. I wrap my arms around him and hug him tight as the tears start to fall, knowing that these men not only got justice for me and protected me but made sure that he didn't do this to anyone else. I look up at Angel and he kisses me one more time before saying "Let's head to bed." I nod and look at the other guys and say "Thank you." They all nod and I see Coco still looks concerned when he looks at me. I walk away from Angel and over to Coco. I hug him and say "I'm okay." I pull back and look at him and he nods before I turn and head to the dorm room with Angel and as soon as we are inside, he locks the door and he heads to the shower. I give him time to get in and decide that he did this for me. He protected me. Claimed me. I decide that I need this.
I stand from the bed and walk into the bathroom and undress. Stepping into the shower, he has his back to me and letting the water run over his back. I place my hands on his back and place light kisses to his back and at first he doesn't move. When he does, he turns to face me and I place my hands on his chest. I look up at him and kiss his lips softly and he moves to deepen the kiss and I let him. Turning me towards the wall, he pins me to the wall and his hands are on my hips. I whisper against his lips "Claim me Angel." Crashing his lips to mine, he lifts me up and I wrap my arms around his neck and my legs wrap around his waist. "You sure?" he ask and I nod. He enters me and gives me a second to adjust to his size. Once he starts thrusting in and out slowly, he starts kissing my neck, nipping and sucking on my pulse point. "Harder Angel. Don't stop." I moan and he starts to thrust in and out harder and faster and I find my release. A few strokes later and he finds his inside me. Before pulling out, he puts his forehead to mine and asks "You okay Sweetheart?" Kissing his lips softly I say "Yeah baby. I'm good." He puts me down and we clean off and get into bed. I put on one of his shirts and my panties and he puts on his boxers and we lay down together. We lay facing each other and he kisses me softly. Hovering over me, we spend the rest of the night, him claiming his Old Lady and me doing what I need to do to heal.
