The Devils Baby
Page 24
“Goodnight Jordan” Lisa says and Zoey pushes her outside, Jordan turns to the girls and just gives them a chin lift not saying anything. Zoey comes back in and walks straight in and steps in front of Jordan blocking the TV, I get up and look at Zoey
“You need to talk to Razor” she says and Jordan looks at her
“Why would I do that?” he says sounding annoyed
“Kylie said that her dad said that the club has a rat” he frowns at her
“That's serious shit to say Zoey” she rolls her eyes
“Are you going to call him or what?”
“What did your friend say and how the fuck would she know?” Zoey rolls her eyes again
“Because her dads a cop and she said that they had someone on the in at the club”
“Zoey” he says
“Are you ganna call him or do I have to” he stands up and pulls his phone out and walks out to the front porch, I walk closer to her
“Zoey are you sure about this it's really serious” she nods her head “Come on sit down” We go into the kitchen and she sits and starts to feed Logan, I sit on the other side of the table “What did Kylie say?” I ask her
“She said that last week her dad was having a poker night and that she heard them talking about you and Brandy being attacked and that the club was being watched and they had an in at the clubhouse
“Are you sure she heard correctly” I nod
“Yeah Niya”
“Ok I'm sure the guys are on their way so be prepared to be interrogated” she nods looking a little nervous “It'll be fine” I grab her hand and give it a little squeeze “Why don't you help me bath Logan before the guys get here?”
“Ok” she says and picks Logan up out of his chair

Razor
My phoned buzzed in my pocket and I pulled it out (Jordan)
“This better be good”
“Boss, need you to come to Colt's”
“Why?”
“Zoey”
“What about her?”
“Got information for the club”
“The fuck, are you talkin’ about?”
“One of Zoey's friends says theirs a rat in the club”
“What the fuck are you talkin' about?” I ask him again
“Boss you should come and talk to Zoey”
“Fine I'm on my way” I hang up the phone just as Maggie walks in with a tray full of chips dips and drinks
“Sorry baby gotta head out” she frowns
“What? Now”
“Yeah darlin' won't be long”
“Razor” she says
“Baby I won't be long, I'm just headin' to Colt's” she puts the tray down
“Is something wrong is Niya ok Logan, Zoey” I pull her to me
“There fine, I just gotta go ok, I won't be long”
“There all good” I nod my head
“There all good baby I won't be long, but when I get home you better be naked”
“Razor” she says as I pull her to me
“Naked baby” I slap her on the ass and she pushes me givin' me the finger
“Love that sass woman”

Zoey
We just get Logan into the bath when the sound of rumbling can be heard and I look at Niya
“It's going to be fine just tell them what Kylie said ok” I nod feeling a little scared maybe I shouldn't have said anything but than what if there was a rat and something bad happens and I knew I'd never forgive myself. The door opens and Jordan is standing there
“Come on Zoey” he says and I feel like a woman heading to the gallows, Niya stands up and hugs me
“You’re going to be fine” she smiles but I don't feel as confident. I walk out down the hall and stop when I come to the kitchen and Razor, Nash Tiny, Stryker and Colt are all their Razor and Nash the only ones sitting. I step back and run into a wall I look up and Jordan is looking down at me and he smiles (OMG he smiled) I think I just had a mini stroke cause god he's so gorgeous
“Zoey” someone says and I turn back (right rat focus) I sit in the chair opposite Nash and next to Razor the other three standing behind them and I feel my heart rate at maximum my palms sweating
“So, tell us what your friend said” Nash asks me and I look at all of them. I've only known them a little while but they've all been so nice but looking at the men in front of me I see the cold hard killers that they are.
“Zoey” Colt says and I look at him
“Yep right so the girls and I”
“What girls?” Nash asks
“Kylie and Lisa and I were in my room and we heard Jordan walk past my door and Lisa said how cute he was and” Nash puts his hands up to stop me I bite my lip not knowing what to do
“I don't want to hear about what teenage girls think and their crushes, tell me about the rat” he says (god I want to roll my eyes)
“Like I was saying, Lisa said about how Jordan was cute” he raises his eyebrow at me but I keep going not saying how I thought he was cute to “She asked why he was here”
“What did you tell her?” he asks me
“That I didn't know”
“Go on”
“So, Kylie said that she did know” Nash frowns at me
“How the fuck would she know” I do roll my eyes this time feeling annoyed that he keeps interrupting me
“If you'll let me tell the whole story, Jesus” I say feeling exasperated
“Go on than”
“So, like I was saying, Kylie said that she knew because her dad has a weekly poker night at his house with his cop friends and that they were talking about Niya and Brandy's attack” he goes to say something but I hold my hand up to stop him talking “So they were talking saying they knew that the club was looking for the guy, one of them asked him how he knew and he said, that they had an in!”
“An in!” Nash asks and I nod
“They were the exact words that he used” I nod again
“Anyway, Lisa didn't know what she was talking about and I said that she meant the club had a rat”
“She confirmed that her dad said they had a plant in the club” I nod again
“Anything else”
“Yeah, she said she shouldn't have said anything”
“Thanks, darlin' you go on now” Razor says and I get up leaving them to talk.

Razor
“What do you think boss?” Colt asks me and I look at him, as the three of them sit
“Can we trust a teenager who was listenin' in on a conversation her daddies havin’ with his cop friends” Nash asks me
“I don't know but we should call Church for the mornin” I tell them
“I don't think that's a good idea” Nash says and I look at him
“Why the fuck not?” he shakes his head
“Look, we don't know who it could be”
“You callin' one of the Brothers a rat” Tiny asks standin' up
“I don't know Tiny, it could be you for all we know” Stryker and Colt stand up and I feel a headache comin’ on
“The fuck did you just say?” Stryker says
“Calm the fuck down and sit, all of you” I tell them getting' more fucked off
“Razor” Tiny says, I take a deep breath looking at the men around the table and the Prospect standin' in the doorway, I look at Jordan.
“What do you think?” I ask the Prospect, he stands up straight a little surprised I’d ask his opinion
“Could be all bullshit”
“How so”
“Well the dad knows the daughter’s friends with Zoey, who's apart of the club”
“And”
“Why not let the kid over hear a conversation that's about the club, she tells Zoey, Zoey tells us and where focusin' all our energy into lookin' for a rat and not this Zane asshole”
“Plausible” I say and the others nod in agreement
“Nash get Cuff to check the cop out befor
e we make a move, I want all my basis covered and if this Zane fucker has anythin' to do with it. I want that fucker found and found now” I tell them all this Zane fuck is becomin’ my business and no one wants that, but I guess Bella Mae hasn’t had a good fight in a while.
“Boss we've been lookin', he's a ghost” Stryker tells me
“Call in Nico see if he can help find this Zane fuckhead, he’s just pissin' me off now and get the cop checked out, Now I'm goin' home to my women” I tell them all
Chapter Thirty-Three
Zoey
I'm sitting on my bed reading a book when theirs a knock at the door “Yeah” I call out and Niya opens the door and steps in she has on a purple halter skin tight dress on and strappy silver shoes (totally stealing those) “Wow Niya you look good” she smiles her and Colt are going to the clubhouse tonight for his birthday celebration
“Thank you I just came in before we head out”
“Have a good night” I tell her
“Will do, anyway Logan's down for the night and Jordan is in the lounge room watching TV” she says and I frown at her
“Jordan's here” she nods
“Niya I don't need a babysitter” I tell her sounding annoyed what fifteen-year-old needs a baby sitter where the ones usually doing the sitting
“I know you don't, but with Zane still out there I'll feel better knowing he's here” I roll my eyes at her feeling exasperated the sooner they find Zane the better (but you won't get to see Jordan everyday)
“Fine but I'm totally stealing your shoes” I tell her and she laughs
“Deal” I smile and get up and follow her out to the lounge, Jordan is sitting on the sofa watching TV
“Ok I've pumped a few bottles for Logan” I cringe looking at her
“Gross Niya” she smiles
“Theirs bottles in the fridge for Logan if he wakes up, but I think he should be out for the night. Jordan said he's going to order pizza, do you want me to make something really quick”
“Niya I know how to feed myself, go” I tell her and Brandy threads her arm through Niya's arm
“Jordan's got this” Brandy says and Niya looks at him
“Ok ok let’s go” the three of them head out the door and I go over and sit next to Jordan and see he's on Tinder, that surprises me and annoys me at the same time
“Looking for a girlfriend” I ask him and he frowns at me
“I don't do girlfriends” (ok)
“Then why are you on Tinder?”
“Don't you know it's rude to look over peoples’ shoulders” he says sounding annoyed (god he’s always so pissed off)
“Sorry, god” I stand up and head back to my room, I'm in the for over an hour when there’s a knock on my door “What?” I call out and he opens my door and just stares at me, after I came to my room I changed into my pajamas’ shorts and t-shirt with cupcakes on them
“Nice pj's” I look down and cringe I wasn't wearing a bra and grabbed a pillow to cover myself “Pizza's here” he says and walks off. I grab one of my hoodies and walkout the smell hits my nose and my mouth waters. I sit on the sofa as far on the other side of it as I can and grab a slice, the cheese all gooey and mouthwatering. The first bite is an explosion on my tongue and I moan, Jordan turns to me smiling (oh god his smile) “That good huh” he asks and I blush (go back to your room) the longer I'm with him the harder it is. I dream about him all the time but I know nothing will happen, I'm fifteen he's twenty-One plus Colt would kill him. I nod my head and he turns back to the TV watching MMA, I know he loves it he even fights sometimes. We sit in silence the only sound coming from the people on the screen, the people on the screen cheer for the fighters and I wonder what it would be like to go and watch one of Jordan's fights and then I feel a little sick I don't think I could watch him being hit.
His phone starts to beep and I watch him smile at the screen typing back and I wonder if it's a woman, will he leave here tonight and go to her house (god dam it) I get up and go to the kitchen for a drink, as I'm leaning down to grab a soda I feel Jordan behind me. He grabs my hips and leans in his whole body touches mine and I gasp, his hands are huge on my hips and everything in me wants to moan but I don't I step out of the way and he just stares at me shakes his head and walks back into the lounge (what the ever-loving fuck was that) I snap out of my little daydream about Jordan touching me in places that I shouldn’t be thinking about, when there’s a knock at the door and I walk into the loungeroom as a gunshot goes off and Jordan falls to the floor. I drop my soda and run to him
“JORDAN” I yell shaking him and blood covers my hands “JORDAN”
“Well well, look what we have here” I look at a guy in a dress shirt and dress pants smiling at me another man standing in a black three-piece suit behind him
“Who the fuck, are you?” I ask holding Jordan
“Where are my manners” he says and holds out his hand “Zane” he says and I look at him (this is Brandy's ex)
“Leave him he's dead” he says but I shake my head
“No, he's not” the tears fall down my face
“LEAVE HIM” Zane yells but I can't I grab his shirt and stuff it into the bullet hole trying to stop the bleeding “I said fucking leave him now where the fuck is Brandy” he yells
“Please you have to get help” Zane reaches down and grabs me by the hair pulling me up
“I said, where the fuck is Brandy?”
“She's not here”
“Where the fuck is she?”
“She's at the clubhouse”
“Bitch, probably there fucking all of those pieces of shits”
“Please” I beg and he slaps me hard and I fall to the floor
“Check the house” he tells the other guy; the guy moves towards the hallway and I panic (no Logan)
“Please the babies asleep”
“I don't give a fuck”
“Please let me just check to make sure he's asleep please”
“Fine, Julius” he calls and the guy comes back into the lounge room, I look down at Jordan and see blood pooling around the floor (oh god he's going to bleed out) “LEAVE HIM” Zane yells again but I can't I grab Jordan's shirt and stuff it into the bullet hole trying to stop the bleeding more, Zane backhands me again and I fall back to the floor. The sting in my face telling me the shit I'm in just got real (get to the nursery)
The Julius guy comes in and grabs my arm hard, making me stumble over Jordan. Colt had set up an alarm in Logan's room so if anything happened it went to his phone and most of the club members phones. Once we get in the room Logan is still fast asleep (thank god) Julius pushes me forward and I walk closer to the crib
“Hurry the fuck up” he says holding a gun on me, I look down at Logan and he looks so peaceful “Hurry up” he says and as I lean over, I push the button next to the crib (fucker your dead) “Come on he's fine” he pulls me back out and pushes me onto the sofa I look over at Jordan and a tear falls down my face but I wipe it away, I look around and remember only hours ago how great life was
Chapter Thirty-Four
Niya
(That morning)
Siting in the kitchen, I watch Zoey feeding Logan and I smile feeling so blessed “HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU” We all sing as Colt comes into the kitchen. Cassey and Grace arriving early so there here when Colt gets up
“Thankyou” he says giving all of us a kiss
“Sit baby boy” Cassey says smiling and we all sit around the table just as we hear the rumble of pipes.
“Yo dickhead” Stryker yells out coming in
“Stryker” both Cassey and I say at the same time
“What?” we shake our heads as he sits next to Zoey, rubbing her hair making her yell out and push him away
“You’re an ass” she tells him and he leans in and gives her a peck on the cheek “Eww, I don't know where your mouth has been” she says wiping he cheek, he grabs her fast and pulls her face into his armpit we all laugh as she tri
es to push him away
