Ari

I stand there still holding onto sebs hand staring at the woman sitting on the stool at the bar

"You... you said you missed me luca."

"And you were stupid enough to fucking believe me" My dad laughs "have you seen my wife?" He laughs harder. He's right though peyton is absolutely beautiful, but she's also smart, successful, and the best mom I have ever met. "By your reaction you didn't expect to be seeing our daughter, tell me lexia, why's that?" He no longer laughing.

"I... I don't.... I don't know I figured she would be off at college or something." My mom has never been a good liar.

"Tell me mom, whyd you do it?"

"I'm sorry honey I dont know what you're talking about" the fake sweetness in her voice sends anger coursing through my vains.

"Stop fucking lying" I yell "you helped them kidnap me why?"

He eyes go wide and she knows she's been caught "I didn't know what they were planning, I swear. I was approached by a girl, she said they were going to take you for ransom, I knew your dad would pay it. They said they would give me half if I gave them information about you."

"What did they want to know?"

"They wanted to know where you went to school, if you were going to put up a fight, if you had weapon training, if you carried weapons."

"You wouldn't know any of that" I reply ignoring the tears streaming down her face. I know she wasn't crying because of what she did, she was crying she got caught.

"Wbo was the girl?" Dad seeths at her.

"I don't remeber her name is was a flower I think"

"You better get to thinking really fucking hard."

It quiet for a minute before she speaks again "she said you killed her brother. I think her name was daisy"

Time stands still in that moment. Everything around me fades as my head reals. It all makes sense daisy hated me, she wanted seb, it was never about her brother for her. It was about getting me out of the way and seb fell for it. He let her in.

I'm snapped by to reality when I feel arms going around me and whispers in my ear "I'm so sorry, my love. I'm so fucking sorry. I love you so much ari."

I pull myself away from seb and stare back at my mom, noticing eli and Parker aren't in the clubhouse anymore.

"How could you mom? Do you even know what they did to me?"

"You look fine to me" she shrugs.

I can't control my anger as I walk towards her and slap her across the face "I look fine to you?" I'm screaming now not giving a flying fuck I look crazy "they fucking beat me, they raped me, I had a baby in a cold dirty basement by myself. I fucking hate you lexia. I would walk barefoot through fire on broken glass to protect my daughter. You helped those men for what a couple thousand dollars to shoot into your vains"

"I don't know what you want me to say"

"I think you deserve a little taste of what I went through. No one deserves to be raped and beaten but locked up in a cold dark room Yeah." I look over at my dad and he nods confirming it was still my decision.

When the door to the club house bursts open Parker comes in with a kicking and screaming daisy over his shoulder and eli following close behind.

"Seb" she cries out once Parker throws her to the ground. "Baby don't let them hurt me."

"Fuck you daisy" seb sneers at her.

"You don't understand" she shakes her head.

"So marus isnt your dad? you didn't help your dad get to ari, you didn't know where she was?"

"He is and I did, but I did it for us. Don't you see that she was in the way"

This crazy fucking bitch.

"There was never going to be an us, daisy. "

"You're playing fucking house with her, what about our baby seb?"

My eyes go wide as I turn my attention to him. Seb has a kid? Is that who's room charlie was playing in? More hurt than there already was fills my chest.

"You killed that baby daisy. I dont know if that kids was mine or not. Regardless I wouldn't have ever been with you, I would have never loved you."

Sebby was going to be a dad because he was having sex with the girl who conned my mom into kidnapping me. I can't help the laugh that escapes my body as the tears roll down my face.

"Princess?" My dad asks calmly as he steps towards me "you okay?"

"Yeah dad, I'm great." I say through my laughing fit "my mom loves drugs more than me. Sebby knocked up a sociopathic whore. Why wouldn't I be okay? I'm heading out, yall do whatever you gotta do."

I take off to my car ignoring everyone staring at me. I'm greatful seb left the keys in the ignition. I may not have my license but dad and Shane have taken me out a few times to practice. I head towards sebs house to get my daughter. Her and locklynn are playing outside when I pull up as soon as locklynn sees me she sighs knowing it didn't go well.

"Thank you for watching her." I tell her scooping charlie in my arms and taking her back to the car. Once she strapped in I get in the driver's side and pull out of sebs driveway.

I hate that I have to pass the clubhouse to get out of the compound I hate even more that seb is waiting for me at the gate and tells the prospect not to open it. "Angel please." He taps on the window

"Sebby" charlie yells from the back seat.

I Crack the window before speaking "open the gate seb"

"Angel let me drive you home" He sighs

"No, open the fucking gate seb"

"Baby please you don't have your license. Charlie is in the car." He says softly.

"Yeah. I'm well aware. I'd have my license if your crazy ass baby momma wouldn't have had me fucking kidnapped. I'm not playing seb open the gate now."

I'm greatful when dad steps up behind him and lays his hand on sebs shoulder before talking to the prospect "open the gate." He turns his attention to seb "She'll be okay" then his attention is on me "be careful princess. I love you. Love you too baby girl" He tell me and charlie

"I love you too dad."

"Love you grandpa"

"I'll see you girls at home"

But he won't by time he gets home charlie and I will be gone. I'm leaving allot earlier than I planned, but I can't stay here. I look at seb one last time the pain in his eyes threatens to break my heart but I won't let it. As much as I love seb, there's no going back from this. I think he knows that.....

There's still motorcycles parked out by the guest house, dad still has brothers here incase shit hits the fan. I need to get packed and loaded fast. I'm really not worried peyton and dad knowing where I am, I'm not going to go get cash out of the bank account or anything they can track my phone and my atm purchases, it doesn't matter.

Peyton already made it clear the choice was mine and she'd help me every step of the way. I decided on the ride home I'd call her when I got on the road. I wouldn't be driving far. Just to the train station from there I'd pick a new place for charlie and myself to start over....
