My mom at this moment, would definitely scold me for falling into "the wrong crowd."

It's not like I choose, to meet a bunch of dangerous bikers/ gang members. Harry had picked Jenny and me up from my house a few minutes ago. The sun, was already setting. Soon it would be night. Dark and scary with a bunch of scary men.

Okay, Lilith chill the fuck out before you start freaking out. No one spoke, not even Jenny and that was pretty shocking. I guess, I wasn't the only one that was nervous.

"We are almost there." Harry I announced. I gulped. My hands started to sweat.

"You never told me the name of your... gang." I stated. I really was curious, as to what kind of bad ass name they had.

"The Reapers." He answered. Not bad I thought. Certainly much better than, The Sons.

Jenny snorted, she sat in the back. "uhhh how scary." She said sarcastically. I couldn't help but smile, Jenny was back folks.

Harry smirked too, "Yeah I know. If it were me I'd pick another name too."

No amount of small talk, could distract me for what was about to come. Harry turned onto a gravel road. Clearly, this road was well hidden. We drove a few more minutes until far up ahead, you could see a deserted barn. I saw the people, before Harry even parked his car.

There were mostly men, but there were a few girls too. Bikes we're parked at one side, a fire was built in the middle. They made a bonfire. Were they going to burn us alive? I couldn't help but start shaking.

"Woah, there's a lot of people here." From the rearview mirror, I saw Jenny freaked out with wide eyes.

"I'm scared." I whispered

Harry cut off the engine, and looked at both of us. "Nothing is going to happen to you. I won't let it happen." He said with so much determination. Oh, Harry.

He got out the car, and unfortunately I had to leave the safety and comfort of his car.

Jenny and I followed Harry. Everyone was now staring at us, no one spoke anymore. Halfway, a man not much taller than Harry met us half way. He had white, grey hair. He must be the leader, because he held so much confidence and authority. It oozed off him. He had to be no older than 30, but I flinched when I saw a scar that trailed from his left eyebrow all the way down to his cheek.

Jenny clung to me, grabbing my hand. She must be scared shitless.

"Harry." The leader said.

"Anthony." It was their way of greeting, I suppose. His cold brown eyes met mines. Then his eyes lingered on Jenny. Gross, this asshole was checking her out.

"Are these the girls that were present that night?" asked Anthony, his eyes no longer lingering on us. Harry nodded, for confirmation. Anthony started walking toward us, and stopped a few feet away.

"You girls know the severity of this situation. This isn't no bullshit little gang. This is the real deal, and because Harry saved your asses we are into some deep shit now." he stated. Well when you put it that way...

"We didn't know." Jenny spoke up. I looked at her surprised. I hope she didn't say anything, which would piss him off.

"Of course you didn't. Luckily, Harry came and explained everything to me. Before, I sent people to kill you. As much as we are in trouble, so are you guys. The Sons put a ransom on you two, since you guys know their dark secret. So now every gang member that isn't us, is looking to cut your little pretty heads off. I send you here, to tell you that you are under our protection now. Welcome to The Reapers, girls." He gave a chilling smirk at us. Everyone that was here tonight, started to whistle and yell like wolfs.

Oh shit, please do not tell me I was just inducted into a gang. Someone started to play some hard core rock music, and everyone immediately got into the party mood. I was completely and utterly flabbergasted. What the hell did just happen?

I turned to Jenny and she looked at me with wide eyes. "Did we just-"

"Yeah I think so." Answering her question. Harry came towards us.

"Are you guys okay?" he asked worried

"Harry, did we just get inducted into your gang?" I asked

When Harry started to laugh, I felt relieved. "No you weren't. Trust me, induction is way worse." He assured me. I couldn't help but think, why would Harry go through with something like that?

I know it wasn't the time to ask, but I was curious as to why Harry would join. Being in a gang, was some serious shit. You were in it for life. The only way to get out, is if you ended up 6 feet under. I didn't want to think of Harry dead.

"Come on, let's get you girls something to drink. By the looks of it you might need it." he said chuckling a little.

We made our way to the keg that was on top of a wooden table. I wasn't particularly fond of beer, but at this moment I just needed something to calm my nerves down. Handing us red cups, I took a sip. I spotted, the boys coming over.

Beside me, Jenny actually purred. "Damn Liam is looking good."

I elbowed her, "Ouch! You have got to stop doing that!" she yelled, while rubbing her arm.

"Seriously?! Now is not the time to be thinking about boys. We have other shit to worry about." Only Jenny, I swear.

The boys reached to us, and they looked pretty handsome. They all waved at us.

"What do you guys think?" asked Niall.

"It's uhhh...good." They all laughed at my answer.

"Don't worry we don't bite. Everyone is like family. You know? We take care of each other." Liam said. It didn't occur to me before, but maybe Liam was right. What if most of the people, didn't have actual families? That was sad to think.

I looked at Harry and wondered what must of had happened to him, for him to be the way he is now.


 A/N: If you guys don't know what dark secret Anthony was talking about, remember when the two guys almost kidnapped the girls, well The Sons are into human trafficking. They sell girls for profits.
