Desire or Revenge (Cancelled)

Chapter 5: Broken

It was an early morning. I woke up from a bright beam of light shining from the sun at my face. At first I looked around my surroundings, where was I? I thought. Then the memories of last night hit me. I looked around the room and saw all our clothes everywhere. I was smiling to myself, yesterday was amazing! I wanted to wake him and do it again, I wanted his touch, no I needed it!
I lay back down looking at Hunter sleeping beside me.. I analysed his features in daylight. His beautiful lips that kissed me all over, his broad shoulders his strong arms-

I looked at his arm in utter horror. It can't be, it just can't !!! The guy I liked had the tattoo of my most hated symbol!! The tattoo of a Wild Lions member...

I couldn't breathe or think properly. I quickly jumped out of bed grabbed my clothes and rushed out of his room. I took a moment to lean against the door and then I quickly put on my dress and heels outside his room. I probably looked like a zombie but all I cared about was getting out his house, the house of a Wild Lions member! I couldn't believe it, I slept with a Wild Lions member!! This guy was part of the mafia that killed my father and kidnapped my mother. I was almost done dressing when the door opened and there stood Hunter.

"Hey babe, where you off to so early. I thought I could make breakfas-"
"No! Em s-sorry, I need to go!!"

Before I let him answer I sprinted through the front door as fast as I could and ran all the way across the street before I caught my breath. I was having a panic attack, tears were streaming down my face. HOW COULD I BE SO STUPID?!?!?

I saw him come out of his house and he was looking around for me!
I began to run again, not looking back. I had to run a 2 hour distance home. But I didn't care, all I wanted to do was get as far away as I could from this vile and dreadful man! I kept repeating one sentence to myself- "I HATE HIM!" It was lashing rain and I was running home with a dress, a broken heal and my heart shattered into pieces..

After a few hours of running I finally reached home. I opened the front door and saw Mickey standing there worried to bits. Dark circles had taken up residence under his eyes and his eyes were heavy with sadness and worry.

"Where were you!? Look what I found Alexa!" he was holding up the purse I left yesterday. "It seems it was you that broke into the club late at night!!"
He saw my tears and muddy, drenched clothes.
"Alexa, what happened...?"
I couldn't stop sobbing, was I really that weak? I rushed into Mickey hugging him. He was startled but hugged me back and stroked my head. He was doing what he did best, soothing me.

"Mickey, I don't know what to do!!"
"Hhssh, calm down, I'll go make us coffee and you can tell me."
Mickey went into the kitchen to make us coffee while I went upstairs to get dressed into my normal clothes. A hoody and leggings would comfort me more than a drenched dress.
Mickey was already sitting down with two coffees and biscuits.

"Do you mind telling me what happened yesterday?" He asked
"It's a long painful story."
"Well we've got all day."
I began telling him everything that happened yesterday. He listened to every word carefully, he was shocked!

"Well at least you're safe and sound now.."
"Mickey, how could I be so stupid, I slept with a-"
"It's okay, but I think we should go to the station and tell the chief"

I nodded reluctantly at first. This could provide the police with information to capture them. And I could get my revenge! We got dressed and headed out to the police station. I was greeted by an over excited Estella and a worried Allie.

"You need to tell me everything !!" gushed Estella. "Is he your soulmate?!" She said smirking. She saw my tired and swollen red eyes and stopped.
"Alexa, what happened..?" Said Allie
I turned away while Mickey told them to not ask questions.
"Ladies please, Alexa's not in a good place at the moment."
Me and Mickey went up to the Chiefs office and I knocked on the door with shaking hands.

"Come in" came a stern voice. We went in and sat down in front of Chief Williams. His stern look, combed back hair and cleanly pressed uniform made him extremely intimidating, especially now.

"Ah hello Alexa Rucci and Mickey Walton, what may I do for you?"
"We have some vital information on the  Wild Lions mafia." informed Mickey
Chief Williams leaned forward. " I'm listening..."
I began to tell the whole story. Well I excluded the part about me and Hunter breaking into the club late at night.
Chief Williams was taking many careful notes and asking me many complicated questions, which were a pain to answer.

"Thank you Ms. Rucci. This gives us a lot of new essential information on finally putting away this mafia."
I nodded pleased, I did the right thing I repeated and repeated inside my head. But there still was a part of me that wondered, maybe he wasn't so bad-

"Alexa, do you happen to acquire Hunter's second name?"
" I believe it's something along the lines of Manc -"
"Manchini?!"
"Yes sir-"
"Do you realise who this is Alexa?!"
"No... should I-"
His interruptions were sure annoying me!
"Manchini, is the name of the original family who created the Wild Lions..."
"WHAT?!" I shouted slamming my hand down onto the Chiefs dark oak table.

Mickey was there gawking beside me, he put his hand on my shoulder to comfort me.
"How could you be so careless Alexa, you just slept with someone from the main circle of the Wild Lions!"
Tears began to roll down my eyes once again, I stood up and began to walk towards the door
"Alexa, I will let you know on any news" said Chief Williams.

I walked home with my mind deep in thought. Hopefully I'll never see this vile man again..
When I reached home, I changed into my pyjamas and got a container of vanilla ice cream from the freezer.
I sat down on the sofa and switched on the TV. A good comedy should ease my mind I thought.

RING RING
Or, not.
"Hello, this is Alexa speaking"
It was Chief Williams, great!
"We need you to come down to the station for an important meeting"

So much for a relaxing pyjama ice cream day!
I went to the station a second time this day, this better be good!

I was greeted by Mickey and Williams at the door.
"Alexa, we need you on a mission to finally take down the Wild Lions.."
This hit me hard, so much for never seeing Hunter again...
