-Dylan's POV-
Wow this was awkward - it was clear Sienna's parents disliked me already. I think it's what's been worrying Sienna all day. I should have told her to put this off she's still not 100% well and it's clear she's stressed about the entire situation. I look over at Kale who has suddenly gone white his reception can't be any worse than mine so I don't get what his problem is - apart from being a pussy.
"So daddy Dylan owns a business" Sienna smiles
"Oh what do you do?" He asks this time seeming a little more open.
"I own a club in the city and I also run the security here" he replies
I hadn't told Sienna that but I needed to finally let it be known because I needed something to impress him with even if it wasn't much.
"A business man!" Simon says looking a little more pleased
I can see Ella looks a little more relieved
"You have a very nice place here" Tania smiles
"Thanks" I smile just as misty had realised there where lots of people here she came running out wagging her tail and jumped right up next to Sienna she looks at everyone else pretty cautiously.
"Who's this?" Tania smiles
"This is Dylan's dog misty" Sienna smiles
"She likes you"
Sienna smiles and pats misty on the head.
We head down to dinner and it's a little less awkward Sienna looks a lot calmer now and happier she grabs my hand and kissed me on the cheek.
"Thank you" she whispers
"For what?"
"For dealing with that"
I smile at her "anything for you beautiful."
Tania must have heard because she turn around and smiles at Me. Sienna squeezes my hand and kisses me again on the cheek. We get our table at dinner and the waiter comes out with a very expensive bottle of champagne.
"It's on the house" he smiles.
"Thanks" I say
I see Mick out of the corner of my eye trying to get my attention without the others realizing.
"Sorry guys I'll be back in a minute I'm needed at work" I excuse myself kissing Si on the forehead and telling her I'm sorry she smiled and nodded letting me know it was okay.
I walk over to Mick.
"What is it? I'm meeting my girlfriends parents for the first time tonight!"
"It concerns you all, its pretty serious lets go into the office"
We head to the office to say I'm furious is an understatement this better be important.
I close the door.
"What happened?"
"We just caught two scorpions trying to get into your apartment."
"What the fuck how did they get in?"
"They snuck through the service entry"
"Who's on there tonight?"
"Justin they tasered him."
"They need to be armed we need to up security."
"How the fuck are we going to do that? They start shooting at people and your dad will loose the resort."
"Something then, I don't give a shit what dad said we need them to have a weapon of some sort." I sigh "and I want two boys to be on the back exit all the time! Each exit needs two I don't know why this hasn't been done in the first place."
"Because it's never been a major problem the scorpions have never been a problem here I know they have been in the club and outside but not here."
"Well we need to up security."
"Okay boss." Mick replies "I'll call a few more boys in and change the roster."
I go into my safe and grab out a pistol and a silencer I'd promised Sienna I wouldn't be armed tonight so I had locked my gun away in the safe.
"Are they being held?"
"Yep they are out by the cages."
I stuff the gun and silencer down into my pants.
"All I wanted was one fucking night!" I say
We walk back to the cages and both the scum are sitting there.
"Are they armed, Sam?"
"Not now" smirks Sam
I get out my phone and call Tomo to tell him I have some rubbish that needed to collected. Then I shoot both the scum dead by the time I was finished Tom was there and I left I snuck upstairs and changed my shirt going back with a few blood splatters on it probably wouldn't make the best impression. I check the rest of me out and I'm fine so I go back to my office put my gun back and head back to dinner.
"Sorry about that." I smile
"All sorted?" Smiles Sienna
"Yep"
"It must get busy on a Saturday night" Simon smiles
"It sure does" I reply catching kale glare at me as soon as I said it.
Baby brother wasn't as stupid as he looked!
"We where going to get a room tonight but it was completely sold out."
"I can fix that" I reply
"Would you?" Smiles Tania "that would be lovely."
"Sure thing" I reply "give me two minutes and I'll check where our dinner is while I'm at it."
I go up to the service desk.
"I need a suit for tonight?" I ask Landon one of my good mates from years ago.
"That I can do but can it be your mums?"
"The room that sits free and has never been used? Sure can."
He hands me the keys dad has always had one suit that he gave mum in the divorce in case she wanted to come up here but she's never used it, its sat empty since it was declared hers. I head off to the kitchen to see where dinner was eventually I make my way back to the table. I hand Simon the keys.
"It's on me" I reply "dinner won't be too much longer."
"Thank you" Simon replies
We sit and eat dinner when I see Mick approach me I nearly punch him then and there.
"There's a phone call in your office."
"Tell who ever it is I will call them back later."
"You might want to take this."
"Fuck fuck fuck!!!" I scream in my head
"I'm sorry" I say
"It's fine" Sienna smiles
Simon gives me a knowing look "don't worry about it it's hard work running a business"
If only you knew Simon, if only you fucking knew!
"Thanks" I say and I leaving the table.
I walk back to my office.
"Touch Point security? Dylan speaking."
"Dylan, it's Joe we've had scorpions at the club tonight we've caught four in your office trashing it and going through stuff."
"Can you deal with it Joe? Ring Tomo his just been dealing with two here."
"Can do" he replies
"I want security tightened too I need someone on my office." I reply "this is getting fucking crazy! They've been following us all day can all footage be erased we don't need evidence of any of this bullshit."
"No problems boss"
"Oh and Joe? I need you too make sure no scorpions get into the club they need to be fucked off immediately, dispose of them as necessary."
"Sure thing."
I go back to the table and sit down.
"Sorry again guys, it's been busy at the club too."
Kale shoots me a look "do they need a manager there tonight? Cuz I can go?"
"No it's all good" I reply the last thing I want to do is ruin Kale's night too.
"I understand" says Simon "I'm surprised you managed to go on your road trip running a business is hard work and you never really get much of a break."
"Dad owns 12 gyms" Sienna smiles
"Yeah it's not easy that's for sure." I reply
"The best things for a successful business is good staff that can deal with most situations"
"Most of my staff are great" I reply "it's just some situations I need to make the call which is when it gets hard but most of the time I don't really hear from them."
"And that's what you want" he replies
"So what gyms to you own?"
"All 12 Get Fit 24 hour gyms in the state."
"I know those gyms, good places" I reply in fact I go and so do all of the reaper boys. Fuck in fact he would know that - all the get fit gyms are scorpion free zone and he would have seen my reaper tat. Good going Dylan why the fuck did you have to make the tattoo for the neck!
"Would you like to come back for a drink?" I ask Sienna's parents
"Sure" they reply
We go back upstairs and I order up some champagne.
"Do you mind if I have a cigarette?" Simon asks
"Sure" I reply "I'll join you."
We go out to the balcony and light up.
"I know who you belong too." Simon tells me
"Yep I thought you would have figured that out by now."
"You've always been great for and at the gym" he sighs "but don't you hurt my daughter and make sure you look after her and no one is to mention this to Tania."
"Okay, I would never hurt her Simon, she is amazing and I will treat her like that."
"You make her extremely happy but I want that to continue." He replies
"It will" I reply
"I've never had an issue with you reapers and I'd like to keep it that way." He sighs "Sienna is a sweet girl and all I want is for her to be protected and happy."
"That she is and will be forever."
"Good" he replies shaking my hand "to be honest I prefer her being here with you and surrounded by security than at that apartment in the city it worried me. I've lost one child - I'm not loosing another."
"Me too" I reply
Simon and I have an understanding now and it feels like his realized I'm not as bad as I looked.
-Sienna's POV-
Dad and Dylan have been on the balcony for ages so the frest of us just sit, chat and drink champagne - it feels nice have mum here again I feel like it's been forever since I've seen her. we talk and laugh for ages and eventually dad and Dylan return a while later we decide its time to go to bed. We say goodnight and Dylan walks them to their room and has to go down to his office.. He hadn't told me he ran security here but I basically figured it out when I got here and saw the reaper tattoos. One thing I know is tonight something went down Dylan seems angry and although he got through dinner and made a good impression on my parents - something has happened. I go and have a shower then get into my pjs I brush my hair up into a pony tail and brush my teeth. I then hop into bed - I wish Dylan was here with me but I knew I wouldn't get what I wanted when it came to that - because of this lifestyle. Ella comes in and jumps into Dylan's side of the bed.
"Where's Kale?" I ask
"In the shower" she replies "his being weird something happened tonight."
"I was just thinking the same thing." I reply
"Your dad seemed to be really good with him."
"I know it was weird I knew mum would be but dad surprised me."
"Me too"
We sit on the bed and try and figure out what happened tonight but only came to the conclusion that it involved the other gang - things where way too suss for it not too. Kale comes in and jumps on the bed from his smirk I knew he heard us.
"What are you two detectives?"
"We are just confused"
"We had a few issues with the scorpions tonight but they are sorted."
I need to go to the toilet so I get up and go to the bathroom I realize I left my clothes on the floor so I pick them up and take them to the hamper in the wardrobe I lift the lid and then I see it.
"What the fuck" I basically yell
"What's wrong?" Ella replies and I can hear her get up and start to come in.
"Oh fuck." I hear Kale say obviously following her in.
"What the fuck is that?" I ask
Kale looks in the basket and replies "a shirt"
"I fucking no that" I reply "what's on it?"
"Tomato sauce?" Kale smirks
"Do you think I'm stupid?" I snap "why is there blood all over the shirt Dylan was wearing?"
"He left in the shirt he was wearing"
"No he didn't he'd changed his shirts half way through the night!"
"How the fuck do you know that?"
"I'm a fashion student" I reply "the shirts may have looked the same but the stitching was different!"
"I feel kind of creepy looking in my brothers laundry hamper....."
"Too fucking bad. Ella we are getting out of here." I say
"No you aren't" Kale scowls "you are both staying here it's not safe for you to leave?"
"And it's safe being here? It's obvious Dylan shot someone when he left during dinner!"
"One fucking night!" I yell "that's all I asked for!!"
"And it doesn't stop because you want it too!" Kale snaps at me
"Ella I'm leaving are you coming with me?"
"I have too" she replies looking at kale and frowning.
"You know Dylan's not going to be happy."
"I don't give a fuck if Dylan is happy or not Kale."
I get into the elevator and Ella follows me looking longingly at Kale as the doors shut. We get to the ground floor and we walk out of the lobby towards the doors.
"Sienna!" I hear Dylan calling me Ella and I keep walking
"Si, please wait."
We continue to walk but I know Dylan's following us I can feel it.
"Please Si." He basically is running now and we are still walking really fast I feel him grab my shoulder and he stops me. "Please you can't leave it's not safe!"
"What is?"
"I will keep you safe"
"Yeah right.." I reply "what I found shows that there is nothing safe about being with you."
"Please I can explain."
"Dylan enough Imagine if my dad had have found out who you are and what you where doing during dinner." I hiss
"He knows." He sighs
"You told him?"
"He figured it out - his gyms are all reaper."
"So his in on this too?"
"No but he knows."
I feel sick the life I knew didn't feel real anymore.
"Si your coming back." He says
"I'm not sharing a bed with you." I reply
"You don't have to I'll sleep on the couch."
I reluctantly go back to the apartment I knew what Dylan does but the fact he can't go to dinner without leaving and shooting someone makes me sick. And the most disgusting thing that troubled me is he came back and ate dinner like nothing had happened. It was just another day for him and that sickened me.
"I need to go to bed." I say and before anybody has the chance to reply I walk into the bedroom shutting the door behind me.
There's a knock on the door "Go away."
"It's Ella."
"Okay" I reply and she comes in and sits on the bed.
"He didn't mean to upset you." She sighs
"He killed someone Ella during dinner it's not even the fact he killed someone I knew he did that I knew that after what happened to me there would be a lot of scorpion blood lost but I didn't expect him to give up something he knew was so important to me and then go against something he knew I didn't want to happen tonight. I'm hurt and then he tells me my dads involved in the Reapers?!! What the fuck!!!"
"I know it's fucked Hun but seriously just relax let him explain."
"No!"
"Trust me it had to be done!" She begs "please just listen to him!"
"5 minutes Ella that's it!"
Ella goes out and tells Dylan to come in - he sits on the bed.
"I'm sorry."
"Why because you went out and killed someone during dinner and then came back and looked as if nothing happened?"
"Something had to be done."
"Why Dylan?"
"They where trying to get in to ambush us Sienna."
"Get in where?"
"Here."
"Couldn't security deal with it?"
"No it had to be me Si and I'm sorry but this is my life and I can't do anything about that anymore."
"I just don't know."
"If they had have got in we would have all been in big trouble Si."
"Yeah but if I hadn't have gotten involved with you in the first place life would be normal again - now it's anything but normal."
"I warned you"
"I know I'm kind of wishing now that I had have listened."
"So it's over?"
"No."
"So we are together."
"No." I frown "I don't know."
Listen to your heart - listen to your heart I repeat to myself over and over again.
I tell Dylan I'm going out for a joint by myself and that I need to think. I stand over the balcony and smoke that joint quicker than I have in my entire life. I honestly don't know what to do - a week ago dating someone who has killed people would have been a huge no no but I've come to know Dylan as someone that protective and sweet how come the part that hurts the most is that he lied to me? I don't get it isn't taking people's lives worse? But I guess at the end of the day these aren't people I was nearly raped by this group if Dylan wasn't there I don't know what else would have happened. I walk over and get another joint - this time I smoke it quicker than the last. Do I forgive him for lying to me? Do I forgive him for doing something I just wanted one night away from? My heart is telling me I should. My head is confused. Listen with your heart I think listen with your heart! I walk inside and sit on the couch with misty by my side. Ella walks out of Dylan's bedroom I can still hear Kale talking to him and she comes and sits by me.
"His hurting" she says
"Yeah well so am I."
"What's the worst part?"
"That he lied."
"Give him another chance."
"I want to.. But it's complicated."
Listen to your heart. Listen to your heart. Listen to your damn heart!!!!
"I know sweetie but this boy loves you - yes his got a pretty insane life but he loves you - you need to remember that - he would never intentionally hurt you."
"I know"
"Then go in there and tell him that."
Ella tells me she's going to bed and if I need her just to come and get her and a few minutes later I hear Kale follow her. I walk into Dylan's room and look at him laying on the bed his still dressed and is staring at the roof.
"I'm sorry" he says not breaking his gaze from the roof.
"I can't deal with liars."
"I will never lie to you again - tonight I had no choice."
"You couldn't have waited until after dinner?"
"No, it needed to be done then and there."
"This is one lifestyle I never thought I'd be apart of."
"I hate that you're apart of it." He sighs "I'm sorry I bought you into it."
He gets up and walks over to me cupping my face and kissing me of the forehead.
"One more chance?" He asks
Listen to your heart!
"One." I reply
He picks me up and lays me on the bed kissing my lips.
I wake up the next morning wrapped in Dylan's arms - I was glad - still hurt but glad. I hear the elevator and go over to get it it opens up and mum is standing there.
"Daddy's gone to do a few things so I though I'd come and.... Sienna! Why are you covered in bruises!!"
"Oh fuck!!!" I think to myself
"Something happened mum."
"What?"
"Come and sit down." I reply
"Thursday night on the way home I was attacked - if Dylan didn't come down because I was taking too long to close up the shop I don't know what would have happened."
"Are you pressing charges?"
"No"
"Why?"
"Because I just want to forget about it."
Minutes later I hear the elevator again I go and answer it and it was dad.
"Your mother texted me what the hell happened!!"
"Good one mum" I think to myself
"I was attacked Thursday after work Dylan found me and stopped it before it was too late."
"Why aren't you pressing charges?"
"Because I want to forget about it" I lie again
"Dylan!" Dad calls "I need to talk to you!"
Dylan comes out and they both go outside."
-Dylan's POV-
Sienna's dads mad I don't know what the hell he is going to say. His dead he can't hurt her again his gang can but he can't.
"Why hasn't she pressed charges."
"I've dealt with it."
"She should be pressing...." He looks at the ground "oh.."
"He can't hurt her again. He can't hurt anyone again."
"I'm glad you found her. I'm glad you stopped it." He sighs "who was it?"
"His name was Drew." I sigh "he was a scorpion."
"I knew I banned those things from the gym for a reason." He replies "they are nothing but trouble. Tania can't find out about any of this it will kill her to know who you really are."
"She won't" I reply
"Good." He says looking at me dead in the eyes "I'm glad she's being protected by you."
"I will always protect her."
"Thank you."
Sienna's dad was cool - he got it, he got all of it. I guess through the gym his come to know us and what we stand for there is no negativity towards us and I am glad. Sienna was the definition of beautiful and I would never let anyone take her from me or hurt her and Simon knows this. I never imagined being with a normal girl not one that was associated with Reapers and her father being cool about the whole thing it's amazing how accepting he is. She's lucky to have a dad like him and I'm lucky her dad is who he is otherwise I myself could be dead after all of this. I walk inside and Sienna is sitting on the couch next to her mum leaning into her and crying her mum smiles a little at me and mouths "thank you". I smile back at her.
"Should I organize some breakfast" I say when I see Ella and Kale make their way down stairs. I'd given that boy his own damn room but I don't think his using it.
"Sounds good" everyone smiles except Si who tries to but doesn't.
I order breakfast for everyone and once it arrives we sit outside and eat. I watch Sienna push food around on her plate I put my hand on her thigh.
"You need to eat" I whisper
"I'm not hungry" she replies, putting her own hand on mine and squeezing it.
I honestly love this girl and the fact she is hurting makes me hurt her dad might except this lifestyle but I'm starting to realize she doesn't. After breakfast Sienna tells us she needs to lay down so her parents tell us they are going.
Simon shakes my hand "you look after her okay."
"Always." I reply
"Thank you" Tania smiles at me and hugs me.
After saying goodbye Sienna goes and lays down and Kale and I decide to go and get some work done.
We walk down into the foyer and into my office.
"So what's our plan of action?" Kale asks
"We've upped security at both venues. Each post has two security on it at least I've got four now out the front of here and both my offices are secured."
"What happens if they find the scum?"
"Dead" I reply "we can't risk it."
"How many last night?"
"6" I reply
Kale shakes his head and looks at me "these girls have been bought into this and we can't let anything happen to them."
"We won't" I reply "Simon knows."
"About what?"
"About what happened that night at the park."
"Can he be trusted?"
"Yep, his over heard things at the gyms before and never said a word he was glad that scum can't hurt anyone anymore."
There is a knock at my office door and I answer it. It's my dad what the fuck does he want..
"I heard there was some drama last night?" He says staring at me
"They've been sorted out."
"You make me loose this place Dylan and I can tell you now you'll have more than a bit of gang retaliation to worry about!" He says sternly but quietly "what's it all over anyway?"
"A Scorpion member attacked his girlfriend." Kale replies
"That's all well and good" dad replies "but keep it out of my resort!"
"We've upped security" I reply "anymore turn up and they'll be taken away"
"Good" dad says "in my day the Reapers where about much more than they seem to be about now don't you fuck it up."
"I know dad" I reply
People talk about taking over family businesses - this by far was my hardest 'job' yet.
"So I heard your dating Simon Brockwell's daughter" he smiles lightning up almost immediately "don't you stuff it up they are good people."
"I know" I reply
"Don't piss him off though." He warns "his a pretty protective father."
"I figured that one out last night" I laugh
Kale and I head up to the room shortly after to see how the girls where going I go into my room and Sienna is laying in bed staring up at the ceiling. I lay down next to her and bring her into my arms.
"I'm sorry."
"I'm glad you where there when it happened" she replies smiling at me "it could have been so much worse."
"So your dad..."
"Is not the man I thought he was"
"His a good man"
"I know.." She replies "but his not the person I thought he was."
"My dad knows him" I reply "he speaks very highly of him."
"His a good man" she smiles "wait how does you dad know him..."
"The past I think" not wanting to say too much.
"Oh okay."
We lay there for ages me just holding her - we don't talk, we don't need too enough has been said. I'm so glad I met her I'm lucky but I don't understand how a guy like me involved in so much shit ever got a girl like her. I still don't know how my dad knows her dad I think it's probably just through the gym it's been around for a long time and so has the reapers.
"Dylan?" Sienna says
"Yeah?"
"Do you enjoy this life."
"Sometimes" I reply I'm not going to lie I love the thrill and when it was just me I loved the life but now with Sienna and seeing how it affects her I don't love it as much it's hard being involved in this and seeing it affect someone you love the way it's affecting her.
We lay there for a while longer until my phone starts to ring. I look at the caller id and decide to take this one outside - it's Joe.
"Hey man what's up?"
"Tomo picked up the rubbish last night." He confirms "but I've got some bad news."
"What?"
"I went into the club with morning and it's been trashed."
"Fuck" I reply
"It was Scorpions they've graffed your wall with it."
"Anything gone?"
"Your employee files and phone book."
"Fuck."
"That's what I thought."
"I'm going down there."
I hang up the phone and turn around, standing in the doorway is Sienna.
"What's wrong?" She asked
"There's a problem with the club." I reply "I've gotta go down there."
"Okay" she replies "can I come?"
"Yep Ella is coming too I need kale and I don't want to leave you both alone here - it's not safe."
She goes off to get dressed and I go and knock on Ella's door because I was sure to find Kale in there.
"Come in?" I hear him say after a few seconds
It was clear what these two had been up to moments before I knocked just by looking at the smug look on Kale's face.
"The clubs been vandalized I need you to get ready."
"But... Okay"
"Can I come?" Ella asked
"Yep" I reply "get ready quick we've gotta go."
The girls get ready and we head down to the club when I walk in it's like we've had a major earthquake there is shit everywhere.
"Kale I need you to check for any signs of spy equipment they've planted."
"Okay" he nods
"Ella I need you to throw all the alcohol out - I can't afford to keep it they've done something to it they could fuck the rep up straight away."
"Okay" she replies
"Joe I need you to help Kale it's going to be a big job"
"You got it boss."
"Si, come help me clean up my office."
"Okay" she smiles and the two of us walk into my office. It's the most trashed by far they've fucked it up.
"Oh my god!" Si says it's bad
"I know" looking at the tag closely I realize this isn't written in paint it's clearly blood.
"Don't go near that wall." I tell her "I need to make a phone call" I slip out the back to make sure if they have planted anything, they can't hear this phone call.
I dial Tomo's number.
"Yeah boss" he answers
"I need you down at the club to clean a wall those faggots have done a fucking number."
Once off the phone I call Mick.
"Hello?"
"Hey Mick, I need you to do a head count those faggots have broken into my club office and someone's gone I just don't know who."
"Okay."
"I can account for Kale, Tomo and Joe plus Duncan and Vick where on the door when we left the hotel."
I walk back into my office and Sienna is sifting through paperwork that has been ripped out of the filing cabinet.
"This is bad" she frowns
"Tell me about it."
My phone rings again.
"Hello?" I say starting to walk back outside.
"You're dead but not before your girlfriend" someone spits on the phone "one down and many more to go"
"Who the fuck is this."
"Russell, head of the scorpions you better watch the fuck out."
"Yeah that goes for you too." I snap hanging up there is no way these dickheads will win I'll make fucking sure of that.
-Sienna's POV-
They've trashed this place bad and when Dylan walks into the office he looks pissed off big time. He stares at the wall some more where the big 'SCORPIONS' title is written clearly in blood. I hear a knock at the club door and Dylan excuses himself again minutes later he was in with another man who is tall with blonde shabby hair and built like the others he has the Reapers tattoo on his neck too.
"Si, this is Tomo his cleaning up that wall for us."
"Hi" I smile
Tomo nods at me "I better get working on this."
It took hours to clean up the mess Dylan received a phone call and when he comes back he looks at Tomo who is still trying to get their shit off the wall and frowns "everyone is accounted for except Dion."
"Fuck this bullshit" Tomo kicks the wall "I'll fucking kill them all."
Tomo kicks the wall again and turns around and walks out. Dylan follows him out and I continue to finish off sorting through papers.
I walk out into the club and ask Dylan who is trying to calm Tomo down if there is anything else I can do.
"Go downstairs with Ella and restock the bar." He replies
The two of us head downstairs. We open the door to the cellar with the key Dylan handed us and as soon as I flung the door open I saw him. Covered in blood and not moving.
"DYLAN!" I scream "DYLAN!!!"
I hear running upstairs and within seconds Kale, Dylan, Joe and Tomo are downstairs.
"What is it?" They ask
I step back and show them the guy on the floor.
"DION!" Tomo yells rushing to his side.
"Mmmm" the guys quietly moans
"His still alive call fucking Ryan now!" Dylan shouts at Kale.
Kale rushes upstairs and Tomo doesn't leave Dion's side.
"Don't you fucking die on me little brother."
Ryan rushes in and explains that Dion has lost a lot of blood, has concussion and has been shot. He explained he should have been dead but we'd found him just in time. Ryan pulls out the bullet and stitches him up.
"I need to take him back to my office" he says "he needs blood."
He picks up his phone and calls his receptionist and gets all of his appointments cancelled for the day and him and Tomo take him out to the car so he can be taken to the office. The place had been bugged Kale and Joe had found them all and destroyed them.
"It's war now." Dylan says through clenched teeth "first you now Dion, they need to die before its anybody else."
I want to try to calm him down I really do but there is nothing I can say his furious.
"Kale, we need to take out Russell."
Usually 'gang' talk was done away from both Ella and I but not this time - Dylan was furious.
"I'm in for that but what will we do with the girls."
Dylan thinks for a minute and then replies "I'm calling dad."
Driving up the long driveway the mansion looked like something celebrities lived in it was huge and guarded. It looked safe - really safe. We get out of the car and walk up to the big doors and Dylan knocks. A man answers the door with the same 'reaper' tattoo on his neck but this guy was older not like the others I have seen or met.
"Your fathers expecting you." He says
We walk inside and Dylan's father walks down the stairs.
"Dad this is Sienna and Ella" Dylan says
"Hi, I'm Brian" he smiles "Sienna your father and I go back a long time I met you when you where a little girl"
"So we'll pick the girls up later" Dylan says
"Okay" says Brian
I go up and give Dylan a hug "please stay safe"
"I love you" he replies
"I love you too."
I do love him how after a week I don't know but one thing I know for sure is my love for him is like nothing I've ever felt before. The boys leave and Brian takes us outside where lunch has been set up for us.
"Thanks" I smile
The three of us sit down and eat well kind of my worry about Dylan is making it hard to eat.
"So you know my dad?" I ask Brian
"Yes I have for years. Lovely man he is!"
"His a good dad" I reply
"His always talked so highly of you."
-Dylan's POV-
At least I knew Sienna was safe that's all that matters right now. Dad will keep her safe I can trust that. We head to the meeting place that we had organized with the others earlier. We where going to try to take the bastards out today. I don't give a shit about myself. As long as the girl i am in love with is safe. Nothing else matters at the moment. Tomo was waiting for us and so where a large group of others. I get out of the car and approach Tomo.
"How's Dion?" I ask him
"Alive and doing better which is more that i can say about these fuckers when i'm finished with them!" he is so angry i don't think I've ever seen him like these "These dogs are going to die."
We all agree we are going to meet at the Scorpions head quarters and go from there - we got word from our men watching the club house that piece of scum Russell was there. The problem with the Scorpions is they are super secretive - Russell was the one that called me and the known head however chances are it's all bullshit. But we'll start by removing that scum and she what happens.
As we approach the club house the adrenaline hits me.
"Lets kill these fuckers" i say
Everyone was armed and wanting blood and that is important in this situation - that is the key. I grab out my phone and text Sienna.
'I love you💜'
'I love you too please come back to me in once piece 💋' She instantly replies
'I promise 💗'
I was hoping that was one promise i could keep but i doubt that i can all i can do was hope for the best.
I switch my phone onto silent and we get out of the car and start the mission we had planned earlier. We went through the front taking one person out at a time - we where after blood shed and we got it. They tried to shoot back but we where too quick. I hate that I am enjoying this but I am. We here people sneaking up on us and bang there gone.
"I've got him!" i hear Kale yell from up ahead.
I run towards Kale and he has Russell against a wall with a gun towards his head.
"Well well well..." I say
"You can kill me Dylan but it won't end."
That was one thing i was sure about.
"But it will make me feel better" I laugh "So do you want to do it or do you want me too?"
"I'll do this one bro" says Kale and bang Russell fell to the floor in an expanding pool of blood.
Once we make sure everyone in that place is dead we leave. One successful mission with no fatalities - on our side that is. Kale and i head back to dads to get the girls it feels like its taking forever. All i want to do is see my beautiful girl.
-Sienna's POV-
Dylan's dad is lovely but all I want is to see Dylan and to know his okay. When i hear the car pull up the driveway i get butterflies their either both back or only one of them is. It takes every inch of my not to run to the door and fling it open but i don't Brian told us that's one thing we certainly couldn't do but oh how i wanted to. Someone knocks and I stand up - please be Dylan please be Dylan! The same guy that let us in earlier answers the door and I see my dirty boyfriend standing there. YES his alive i go running up to him and into his arms.
"I love you"
"I love you too" he smiles
"Dylan - Kale" Brian says "You both need to go and have a shower." he looks at me "And so do you!"
The three of us head up stairs to shower. Everything that was all over Dylan had transferred onto me I knew i was supposed to have a shower but god knows what i was going to wear. Dylan and I approach a door and he opens it. It was clearly a girls room. We walk over to a closet and he opens it.
"Who's room is this?"
"my sisters" he replies
"You have a sister."
"Yep but i haven't seen her in years - she left a long time ago." he frowns "pick anything you want" he smiles
I spot a photo on the wall the girl in it that i assume is Dylan's sister look vaguely familiar but I don't remember who she is and I have probably met her before I'd apparently met Brian before. I go through the dresses that lined her wardrobe and find a simple summer dress in my size and pull it out. Then Dylan and I walk to another room that was clearly his - it looked like him all over. He grabs some clothes and we go into the bathroom that is attached to his room. we both get undressed and get into the shower. his arms are cut up and bruised they are covered in spots of blood but i don't know whether its his or scorpion blood.
Once we are done we head downstairs Kale is already down there.
"You both look much better" Brian smiles "I can see Lilly's clothes fit you perfectly"
"I hope you don't mind" I reply
"She's not going to miss it." he said sadly
Lilly I think to myself trying to remember I can't.
"Have I met her?" I ask
"Yes" Brian replies "You and Lilly used to play together many years ago."
"Oh" i reply "I thought she looked familiar."
Brian was different to Kale and Dylan he was gentle even though i knew he was somehow involved with the reapers he seemed like he couldn't hurt a fly. You could see how much he missed Lilly just by the way he spoke. It was sad - he made me feel sad just looking at him.
We get into the car and Dylan thanks his dad for letting us hang out there.
"So Lilly met you before i did" Dylan laughs "That's hardly fair."
"Dylan can we stop fucking talking about her - she left okay she may as well not exist anymore." Kale snaps
We all sit in silence until we get back to the resort. Kale is still pissed off and heads upstairs with Ella on his heels. I go into Dylan's room and through myself on the bed. I feel exhausted - one thing I learnt is that worrying about people is tiring work.
"I'm sorry about Kale before" Dylan says laying down next to me.
"That's okay." I reply "His obviously upset."
"They where really close" Dylan says "They where twins."
"That explains it" I reply
"Yeah he took it the hardest - I mean we where pretty devastated about it but Kale was broken. She just packed her bags one day and left - it wasn't long after that and mum and dad got divorced. It was just one blow after another that year - so Kale was pretty messed up for along time - he was 16 at the time."
"Shit, it must have been tough."
"It was hard on everyone but worse on Kale."
"I'm glad you're safe" I say to him
"I made you a promise" he replies
We both fall asleep we where both exhausted today was one of the toughest days of my life but I'm glad Dylan came home - that's all that matters. Then we wake up to a crash and a bang, Misty is barking like crazy. Dylan jolts up.
"Stay here" he whispers and grabs his gun off the nightstand
We both hear Misty whimper and he goes flying down there. My phone starts to buzz luckily it was on silent. I realize its Ella and answer it.
"What the fucks going on?" she says
"I don't know" I whisper "Where's Kale?"
"Downstairs he ran down there when he heard the noises."
"Dylan's out there too - I'm scared" I tell her
"Me too." she replies "Just stay on the phone."
I can hear yelling coming from outside.
"I'm going to ring security." i tell her
I ring downstairs and tell them i need security upstairs immediately to Dylan's apartment. Still on the phone to Ella i get off the bed and go into the wardrobe and into one of the corners of it.
"Are you okay?" she asks as the yelling and screaming continues
"Yeah" i whisper "Are you?"
"Yeah I'm freaking out Si i don't know what to do."
"Go into the wardrobe and hide."
"Okay."
I hear the elevator "please be security" i think to myself.
I feel like I'm in that fucking wardrobe for ages - even though security had arrived i could hear yelling and screaming still. I could hear the fighting continue Ella and i are freaking out.
"I wish I could get to you." says Ella
"Stay where you are." I reply "just stay on the phone."
Minutes later there is silence I stay where i am. Then i hear the evacuation bell go off.
"Everyone please exit to the front of the building" it repeats
"What's happening?" Ella says to me
"I don't know" I reply
"Si" i hear Kale call "Si where are you?"
"In here" I reply "Is Dylan okay?"
"Everything's okay." he says "go upstairs and see Ella we've gotta clean up the mess."
I walk into the lounge room and there are five men laying on the floor a security guard on each of them. The whole place is trashed - i don't see Dylan but i can hear him on the phone outside. I make my way upstairs Ella is now sitting on the bed she gets up and smiles at me.
"Thank fuck everyone is okay" she smiles giving me a big hug.
We hear the guys taking the Scorpions out of the apartment and we knew it was over. For now.
-Dylan's POV-
Tomo comes and picks up the piece of shit that tried to kill us today luckily the whole building was evacuated so we could get them out of the building without being seen. That's one good thing about my apartment its sound proof anything can happen in here and none of the guests can hear it but trying to clean the mess up after was a different task the whole building had to be evacuated for that too happen. I quickly ring Mick.
"It's done" I tell him "You can let everyone back in now"
I go back into the apartment to find the girls who are still upstairs i flinch in pain as i walk upstairs. I needed to check they where okay and then call Ryan one of these fuckers did one on me this time. I walk into the room and Sienna throws herself at me.
"Fuck" I say as she hugs me
"What is it?" she says and then notices my shoulder "Dylan you've been shot."
"Yep, I need someone to call Ryan."
She snatches my phone off me and calls Ryan.
"He'll be here in a minute" she tells me
I felt overly relieved when Ryan walked through those doors. The pain was getting worse I'd been shot before but it had never been something i could get used to.
"Twice in one day" Ryan calls "How about no phone calls tomorrow."
"Shut up smart ass" I flinch
"Lets get this bullet out and you stitched up." Ryan laughs "Ella go get a bottle of tequila this wuss is going to need it."
She goes off to get the bottle and hands it to me. I take swig after swig as Ryan removes every last fragment.
"Its nearly over" Sienna soothes
I flinch again in pain and take another swig.
"Having fun?" Kale Mocks
"This is anything but fucking fun loser!" i yell
"Listen, no need for name calling."
"Fuck you."
Once Ryan is done he gives me some painkillers and leaves. I go and lay down. Arghh fuck this whole day I'd like to know how the got in but I do not have the energy to deal with it now.
My phone rings and I see that it's dad - I knew if i didn't answer it he'd be up here in no time.
"Hello" I know I sound groggy but i just can't help it right now.
"Dylan you sound awful are you okay?"
"Yeah" I reply
"Mick called and told me he had to do an evacuation."
"Yeah we had scorpions in here."
"What the hell is security doing! How are they getting in?"
"I have no idea but there where 5 of them." I reply
"Something has to be done because this just can't keep happening."
"I know" I reply
"We'll figure something out. You've had a massive day it's time to sleep."
