Book 2 Chapter 9.
Scythe POV.
I fire my gun at the black SUV that has barrelled through the compound gates. Fuck, who are these guys? Why are they attacking us? We will get answers soon enough. They drive off, tyres squealing as we run behind them, shooting at the SUV. I run to the dead bodies that were thrown from the cage.
My breath catches in my throat as I get closer to them. No, this is not happening. How did they find them? Hatchet and Deanna. They were touring the country in their new RV. Miles away from here.
Savage comes running towards me. He falls to his knees and clutches them at him. My dad was behind him and Angel and my mom were behind him.
I stand and look around the compound, seeing members who are helping to get others to their feet. This is a message, but why?
"NOOOOOOO!" the pained roar from my club prez makes me look at him. He is heartbroken. My eyes fill with tears. Hatchet and Deanna were like grandparents to me and the mother and father to everyone here. The club's past leaders, the alphas of the Princes Of Darkness MC.
"Nanna, pop-pop." Luna and RJ run towards them. When I intercept them both, holding them back. Luna screams and cries, and RJ is the same.
"Let me go, let me go!" Luna screams and I let her go, and she staggers to her mom and dad. RJ following her.
I look at my dad, and he nods his head. I just watch as chaos ensues in the compound. Members running around waiting on orders from our prez. Angel is sobbing as she holds Savage. The crotch goblins are the same. It makes me feel sick that they would never be like this with Rebel. They would just act like she wasn't there. That is why I'm going Nomad. I can't be involved in this MC anymore. Not after everything they have done to Rebel. I should have left sooner, but couldn't. I have nothing left for me now that Rebel has gone.
I scoff and walk away. I won't stand around and watch this, not when I know Rebel will be more devastated than anything. I walk inside the clubhouse and head to my room. I grab my phone, but something stops me from calling her.
I pull her contact up, and my thumb hovers over her number.
"CHURCH NOW!" my dad's voice infiltrates the air and I lock my phone and head to church. I take my seat as we wait for the rest to enter the room. Savage comes in. He is a broken man. He is going through an array of emotions right now and one wrong move will cause him to snap.
"This is war, for whoever has just attacked us, who have killed our past leaders." His voice cracks. Some would think this was heartless of him to call church moments after what had happened. But this is our way. We act quickly, we don't wait.
"I want answers in the next hour. Scythe, where is Rebel? She has to know what happened here." I look at him before I tilt my head to the side. Does he think she is the cause of this? Is he fucking stupid? I know the answer to that, yes he fucking is.
"With all due respect, prez, I'm not her keeper. Do you think she has something to do with this?" I ask, and he looks at me with rage in his eyes.
"No, I don't. But whether she likes it or not, she is still my daughter. She needs to be told and to be bought in. You know what? Fuck it. Just find out who dared to do this and leave the rest to me. Dismissed." He bangs the gavel and I pull my phone back out and dial her number, but it just rings. I try again and it is engaged. I send a text and keep calling her.
Fuck! I leave the room and see Angel talking into the phone with tears streaming down her cheeks. I try her again but it's engaged.
"Rebel, Rebel!” I stop mid-stride as she sobs harder. I look at my dad and mom and they are both watching me. I shake my head and walk out. I walk down the steps and my legs give out. I land on my ass. Folding my arms over my knees and just sob.
Deanna and Hatchet were amazing people and were there for Rebel as best as they could be. Why is this life so fucking cruel? Why did this have to happen? I stay there just crying and trying to make sense of it all. When I hear the rumble of a bike. I look up and see Rebel's bike coming towards me at speed, followed by a sports car. I stand and move towards the bike, not looking at the flashy supercar.
She kills the engine and stumbles off the bike. She rips the helmet off her head and throws it before she runs towards me. I try to grab her, but she runs past me and up the steps and heads inside the clubhouse. I watch her disappear through the door.
Turning back, I watch the flashy fucker get out of the Bugatti. I stop in my tracks. Wow! He is fucking gorgeous. So this must be the boyfriend? No wonder Rebel is fucking him. What I wouldn't give to... No, no. I can't think like that he is her boyfriend. But boy, if I had met him first.
"You must be Dylan. I'm Dante." He walks to me and holds his hand out. I blink out of my stupor as he smirks at me. Wait, is he?
"Before you ask, yes I am." I gulp as I look around to make sure no one is hearing this.
"The same as you and her. I know you love her, just like I do. I want us to be friends. Good move telling her how you feel. This will make it easier for all involved." He says and I look at him like he is talking in a different language. He chuckles, and it makes me shiver. I shake his hand and my breath catches.
"She will never go for it." I say to myself, or did I say that out loud? He raises a perfectly sculptured eyebrow. Shit, I said it out loud.
"You won't know unless you try. Nice meeting you Scythe. Hopefully, I see much more of you soon." He says as he looks me up and down, biting his lip. This man is something else. He walks past me. I'm lost in my head as I turn and watch him walk like he commands everything in his world. Fucking hell. My cock is straining in my jeans. I adjust myself and follow behind him back into the clubhouse.
I see Rebel being held back as she fights to get to her mom. Dante walks to her with purpose. He grabs her face in his large hands and
slams his lips on hers. The fight him.

He releases her and I grab her and
before I know what I'm doing; I kiss her.
Everyone gasps, but I don't care. Rebel deepens the kiss with me. When I pull
away and look at her, she looks confused. I pull her to me and hug her.
"It's ok, I'm not letting you go, ever. Come on, calm down. Kicking off is not going to bring them back. I'm sorry Rebs, I'm so fucking sorry." She sobs on to my chest. I rest my chin on her head. I look at Dante and he nods slightly. He knows love her, truly love her the same as he does. I can see it in his eyes when he looks at her.
"Does someone want to explain to me what the fuck is going on?" Savage shouts, losing his shit. Rebel moves back from me and turns to face him.
"I know who it was, it is a message for me ..." she doesn't get to finish when Luna attacks her. I let Rebel go and the two sisters start fighting. No-one intervenes. We all know this has been a long time coming and they need to fight it out.
“Everything that has happened to my family is because of you Rebel." Luna screams and Angel is the only one who tries to break them up. But Savage holds her back and shakes his head as the two girls rip lumps out of each other. Blonde hair is falling to the ground, blood drops. Luna is screaming, but Rebel is silent.
Rebel grabs Luna by her long blonde hair and wraps it around her fist. Pulling her head back as Luna claws at Rebels jacket. Rebel punches her in the face. Luna screams again when Rebel pulls her gun and places it against Luna's forehead and the room stops breathing and Luna goes still.
"Your family? You are nothing but an entitled, spoiled little cunt. Mom should have swallowed you, Luna. You useless slut. Say one more word about me, and I will blow your fucking head off." She shoves Luna to the floor but keeps her gun trained on her. The air is filled with tension, one wrong move will throw the room in to chaos.
I move to Rebel to get her to calm down, but I can see it in her eyes: rage, pain, the need to destroy her enemy and Luna is her enemy.
"Stand down Rebel." Her gaze is laser focused on her sister. She steps forward
and Luna shuffles back, her eyes wide as she watches the woman she knows nothing about.
"Stand down Rebel, now that's an order!"noveldrama
"No." she raises the gun even though Alessa is standing in front of her. She
doesn't see her. Her eyes focused on Luna.
The sound of a gun going off has us all holding our breath.
