Deadliest of Sins

Chapter Eleven: The Awakening

   Noah "Sin" Foster POV

    Two grueling weeks have went by, and still not one sign of Annalissa waking up. It has been difficult for all of us, especially Athena. She cried all the time, and at all hours of the night. The absence of her mother took a toll on the little beauty, and I could do nothing.
  
    I hate to lie and say I am okay, but I was a wreck. Every night I dreamt of finding her lifeless bloody body, tied up to her bed frame. I was terrified to sleep, so when I wasn't with Athena or Bobby I was tracking down the bastards that did it. We knew it was a Serpents, that much easier obvious. What we didn't understand was why her?

   They have known of her relationship with the Club for many years and nthing has ever happened to her. In my gut I knew it was because of me. They found out some how about our complicated relationship and when I was out they struck. The guilt ate at me,  and I didnt know how much more I could take. 

   The leaders of the Scorpions all sat around, going over retaliation tatics and the surprise attack that would take place in three days.  A couple of days ago,  Alexander and David went and met with El Presidente,  the leader of the Sepernts. They informed him of what happened and said for him to turn over the men who did it.

  Even though we were all blood thirsty bikers, did not mean we go around torturing women and children. What these men did was despeciable and went against what the Serpents stood for. The Scorpions and Serpents had good relations until lately when we merged with them, but just because we merged did not mean they were fighting our war.  The moment we became Scorpions the war ended.

   El Presidente assured Alexander that he took no part in it,  but would not hand over his men for the slaughter. Alexander told them it was a act of war,  and it did nothing to faze them. So here we were three days later, and a week away from the attack on the club house.  "All I know is that we need to get with the Big Boys up in Dallas, so we can get a new supply of guns.  We also need at least a group or two of nomads to come and help. I will not take the Serpents on without any help. " Alexander said as he took a drag from hia cigarette. 

  "Are you telling me we are going to wait longer?" I growled.  Everyone in the room looked at me wide eyed as I had a staring contest with Alexander.  "That ia exactly what I am saying. " Alexander hissed.

  "This is bullshit Alex!" I yelled as I hit the table with my fists. "Those assholes tortured her! They left her for dead, with our child laying in the other room! Presidente had a chance to avoid a war all together, and he didn't take it." I could see Alexander seething in his seat,  not liking the way I was talking to him.  He was afterall supposed to be the Alpha around here,  and I was showing him all sorts of disrespect.

   I stood from my seat and walked towards the mahogany door that led to the hallway. Before I walked out,  I turned around and looked him straight in the eyes. "I can not wait around. She deserves justice,  and I will be damned if I don't get those mother fuckers and show them why the name Sin is feared. " I rushed out without a glance behind me. Fury rain through my veins, I could not comphrened how they weren't knocking down El President's door and killing Al the mother fuckers who laid a fucking hand on Annalissa! I guess I was the only hope at getting back at the assholes who did that to her.

   I dashed towards my bike and hopped on, not bothering to put my helemet on. I raced down the wet roads, the smell of rain lingering in the air. I couldn't have been driving for more than ten minutes when I came upon the old run down house that I was more than familiar with. I jumped off my bike and headed to the front door, opening it without bothering to knock on it.

  The old door made a creaking sound as I pushed it open, and was immediately hit with the smell of booze, cigarettes, and dirty socks as soon as I set foot in the living room. "What a lovely surprise." A deep raspy voice said sarcastically. Sitting down in his old recliner was the one man I despised so much, I made it my life's mission to avoid him at all cost. "What can I do for you son. You barely come and see your old man any more." I so badly wanted to snap at him, but I kept myself quiet. He was the only one who could help me find the dipshits that had something to do with the attack on Annalissa.

  "Sorry Pops, been busy." I muttered gritting my teeth.

  "Oh, I heard." He said as he rose from his recline and walked to the area I the corner of the room. "Been spending lots of time with that Scorpion Princess, Annalissa, if I am not mistaken." He handed me a glass of whiskey which I took without commenting on what he said. "Ahh. Must have hit a nerve." He joked humorlessly. "I know you hate me, but really? Shacking up with the one girl I specifically told you and your brother to stay away from!" His teeth barred at me like a rabid dog.

    "I didn't know it was her until I saw her a couple of weeks ago. " I answered honestly.

     "What of the child? How did you not know about her?" He asked, taking me by surprise. I really shouldn't be too surprised, he knew everything. "She didn't tell me." I whispered, my heart breaking for the time I lost with my daughter. "Enough of the small talk, I came here for your help. I am pretty sure you know what I am going to ask you."

   "The burning question everyone a been asking. Who attacked the Princess?" My dad said as he sat back down. "I heard there were five guys who participated, but no names."

  "You better not be lying old man." I miss as I stated towards him, ready to kill.

   "As much as I despise the Sanchez's, my granddaughter is part of their family, which makes the little perfect princess my family. Even though I have not met her, she is still my kin. I wouldn't lie." He said sincerely. "I will help you find them, but I have to get more information from my sources first. " He sipped on the whiskey looking at me as if I was a ticking time bomb. Knowing that he was being sincere and honest for the firs time in his life, I knew I had to give him thanks. "Thank you." I tried to smile, but it was hard.

   "Don't worry about it. I will call you if I hear anything from my men. Take care son, and stay out of trouble." He escorted me out of the house and to my bike. He gave me a gentle pat on the back and a smirk, before I drove away completely empty handed. I arrived at the clubhouse, just as the rain started to pelt down. The rain and dark cloud mixed with my mood, created the perfect ambiance for a romance movie. You know the part when the main characters heart is breaking and feels absolutely numb. That's how I felt. I stood there, just letting the rain mix with my tears.

    The sound of my cell phone brought me out of my funk. I pressed the phone to my ear and Crisitano's frantic voice erupted. "Slow down Sanchez. What's wrong? Is Annalissa okay?" panic started to bubble in my stomach, the thought of something bad happening to her made me feel queasy. 

   "She is fine,  she is absolutely perfect! You need go get down here now! She is waking up!"

   Sorry for the late update.  I have been having a hard time writting this chapter. It's a filler,  but I will have another chapter soon. I have been having a lot of negative feed back lately,  and it is honestly making it hard to continue with this story.  I love Sin and Annalissa and they still have their story to be told, but if things continue this way,  I will put the story on hold until I can find inspiratation again.

Thank y'all,
