Voracious Angel

Chapter 36

They drove to a warehouse lot that Quinn knew about so that Happy could have some privacy to "interrogate" Mike. Isis wanted to go in but Chibs grabbed her around the waist and told her there was nothing Happy was doing she needed to see. "That bastard knows where my baby is!" she yelled but Chibs just tightened his grip and said that Happy would get her location out of him one way or another. The screams from Mike made her happy although she knew it was sick to think so. It meant her 'ol man was inflicting pain and she liked that thought.

Forty-five minutes later, Happy exited the warehouse and said he knew where Leia was being kept. There were several of the Rejects' members there. Clay motioned for everyone to follow Happy. Isis was shaking so bad she was afraid she was going to drive off the road if she let the death grip on her steering wheel go. Her knuckles were white she was gripping it so hard. They all drove to a very seedy part of town. Happy eventually parked by what looked like an abandoned shack. Isis wasn't sure this was where she was being kept or not.

Suddenly the sound of gun fire was heard and she leapt from her car with her gun out in front of her. Two guards had been shot, Tig was beating another man while Happy was beating a fourth. The rest of the bikers moved out of the way so Isis could rush into the little shack and check on her daughter. She gasped seeing how little clothing her daughter was wearing and hated the idea of what had been done to her.

Isis rushed over to her daughter and removed the blindfold. She growled seeing her poor daughter's face. After the blindfold, she undid the other restraints. "Let's get you in the car. We'll have Tara look you over at the clubhouse. If she thinks you need to be seen at the hospital, we'll take you to the hospital." Isis told her daughter as they slowly walked to Isis' car. Seeing the state her daughter was in made her blood boil. She wanted a piece of the creep who touched her daughter but knew Happy had taken care of it. Isis had a blanket in her trunk so she got it out for her daughter to wrap herself up in.

Before Isis climbed into her car to follow the bikers back to the clubhouse, she looked over at Happy who was just staring at her. She gave a small smile and a shrug then climbed into her car. The whole ride back to Charming was spent in silence with the exception of the occasional sniffle coming from Leia. She was beat up, humiliated, in pain, and afraid. Isis reassured her that the men who had taken her captive would bother her no more and that Happy had dealt with their leader personally.

Gemma had dinner waiting when everyone returned. Seeing the state Leia was in, she gave the frightened teen a hug. Isis told her what room they were staying in and for her to go take herself a shower. Ashanti gave her sister a tight hug when she saw her. Tara gasped when she saw the state of the teen. Despite not liking her mother, she was very concerned for the health of the teen. It had looked like the poor girl had taken quite the beating. She asked Gemma where the girl was going and was told to take a shower and get into some clothes.

The Queen made Isis make herself a plate and then told her that she already made Ashanti eat while they were gone. Isis made herself and Leia a plate and moved to sit at a round table. She was worried about the mental state of her daughter. Leia was thankful her mother had packed her a bag. When Jax entered the clubhouse, he immediately went to hug his boys. He was at least trying to teach them respect.

Leia cried while she scrubbed her body the best she could. The welts and bruises still hurt even though the hot water felt good to her aching muscles. She used her mother's showering essentials since Isis had forgotten to pack hers. After her shower, she towel dried her hair as best as she could then slipped into some loose lounge pants and a black tank top. She wasn't looking forward to seeing anyone and had hoped her mother would have just made her a plate and left it in their room. Taking a deep breath, she headed out into the main clubhouse.
