A Fathers Love ⭐️

Chapter 13

I woke up laying in a bed and I wasn't sure where I was. I started to move around and try to focus my eyes.

"Hey, hey, no, stop." I heard Jax say, and I focused my eyes on him as he was standing next to me but semi hovering over me.

"Jax?" I questioned and he sighed seeing me focus on him. He placed a hand on my cheek.

"Hey there sleeping beauty." Jax said and I smiled but grabbed my head.

"What happened?" I asked and Jax sighed.

"I don't know, I got to your house, and they were taking you out in the ambulance."

"I hurt all over." I said and Jax sighed but nodded.

"Darlin' who did this to you?" Jax asked.

"I don't know. They all had ski masks on and were looking for you. Asking where you were. I said I didn't know you. Obviously, they didn't believe me..." I said and Jax sighed.

"Why lie?"

"Because I didn't want you to get hurt." I said and Jax sighed.

"But you getting hurt, almost killed was, okay?" Jax said upset and I groaned.

"Please don't get on my ass..." I said and Jax groaned. Before he could say anything else a doctor came walking into the room.

"Jax, I told you to tell me when she woke up." She said.

"Sorry, we were talking." Jax said. I looked at the doctor. "Tara Knowles. She knows the club." Jax said and I nodded as she walked over and checked over a couple of things.

"What was the damage?" I asked.

"Well, the head injury for starters. You got a couple cracked ribs, sprained wrist along with the cuts and bruises on the face." Tara explained and I groaned.

"Does my dad know?" I asked Jax and he nodded. Before he could answer the door to the room busted open and Tig came in and rushed over to me.

"Oh Jules...fucking hell." Tig said looking me over. "What the hell?!" Tig yelled and Jax shrugged.

"I don't know she doesn't remember much at the moment." Jax said and I knew he was lying because we had to work this story out first. I looked at the doctor and she seemed to read my mind.

"Okay I need both of you guys out. Jules needs her rest." Tara said and both guys looked at her.

"I don't want to leave." Tig said and I sighed.

"Please dad, go. Just sit in the waiting room. I will have Tara come get both of you soon." I said and they both nodded. Tig kissed my forehead gently and then Jax walked over after Tig left and gave me a small kiss and he walked out. I looked at Tara and sighed.

"Can I ask a question?" I asked.

"Of course, you okay?" Tara asked.

"Yeah, can you just be real with me about a few things. I know you told me the injures but do you know anything else?" I asked and she nodded.

"They don't know who did this, the neighbors called in the guys trashing your house, they weren't being quiet about it. Right before the cops got there, they took off. Jax found you when the paramedics were taking you out of the house. I told you the injuries you occurred...is there anything else you remember though? I mean the cops will be in soon with questions." Tara said and I groaned.

"No, they came to the door, I thought it was Jax, so they busted in when I opened the door. Asked for Jax, I said I didn't know him, and the guy knocked me out." I explained and Tara nodded. I then looked at me hands in my lap.

"What do you want to ask Jules?" Tara asked and I took a deep breath.

"They didn't...I wasn't...?" I trailed off unsure of how to ask the question.

"We checked, there was no sign of any sexual assault." Tara said and I let out a sigh of relief.

"Listen, why don't you rest. I will let the guys know your sleeping. Do you want someone in here with you?" Tara asked.

"I can't pick between my dad and Jax. I pick one the other will be pissed." I said and Tara smiled.

"I have someone else to bring in..." Tara said and opened the door. Gemma came walking in and I gave her a small smile.

"She's perfect." I said. Gemma came over and sat next to me.

"Sleep sweetie, I won't let anyone get to you. Especially my son and Tig right now." Gemma said and I gave a small smile and smiled at Tara. She walked out and I closed my eyes letting the pain meds in my system take effect and I was quickly asleep.

A few days later I got out of the hospital and gave my statement to the police after it was well rehearsed with Jax and Tig. They both wanted to go after these guys, but I had nothing to go on. No distinctive marks, no nothing. Jax drove me to my house in my car that he got since I didn't feel good enough to take the bike. Once we got to my house, I unlocked the door and we both walked in. The house was trashed. Things broken, things thrown on the floor...just a complete and utter mess. I covered my mouth in shock. This was all I had left of me and my mom.

"Jax..." I said and he just looked around and he looked pissed.

"You can't stay here Jules. They could come back." Jax said.

"And where do you presume, I stay?" I asked.

"The club house in my room I have there. It's safe. Security system, gate, cameras and someone is always there." Jax said. I just sighed and half nodded.

"I need to clean this place up." I said and Jax sighed.

"Not right now darlin', let's just get you set up at the club house." Jax said and I half nodded.

"Let me go pack a bag." I said and Jax followed me to my room, and he saw a few pictures that I had on the mirror.

"This your mom?" Jax asked and I smiled seeing the picture. It was mom and I in front of our Christmas tree.

"Yeah, last Christmas, before she got really sick." I said and Jax smiled grabbing it and putting it in my bag.

"Take it with you." Jax said and I smiled.

"You want me to take my stuffed bear to cuddle with too?" I asked with a laugh pointing to the bear on the bed.

"Heck no! You will have me to cuddle." Jax said and I looked at him with raised eyebrows.

"Oh really?" I asked and he nodded walking over to me and placed a hand on my cheek running it over the bruise.

"I'm never letting you leave my sight again." Jax said and I shook my head.

"Outside life Jax." I said and he shook his head.

"Not anymore." Jax said and gave me a gentle but passionate kiss. "I believe before I left, I told you to remember something. Now I know you took a blow to the head, but do you remember?" Jax asked. I smiled at him.

"You told me you love me." I said and Jax nodded.

"I do...I love you." Jax asked.

"I love you too." I said and he gave me another kiss.
