Ace Of Spades (Complete Raw First Draft, Unedited) by janeisderranged

This story sucks, don't read it! It's amazing how quickly your life can change. In a slow town like this, where nothing exciting ever happens, where nothing ever changes, one single moment can alter your life forever, for better, or for worse. Sometimes, we're lucky enough to be able to recognise these particular moments, and take a leap of faith, but, more times than not, they just happen without us even realizing what's going on until it's already too late. Tonight, a simple Saturday night, just like any other, would turn out to be one of the most defining moments of my life. Ace is living a slow life, knowing nothing other than drinking with his friends and the motorcycle club that raised him, waiting to reconnect with his father who has just been released from prison after a fifteen year sentence. Life is simple, though he thought. Until the night he meets Jenna, running from her haunting past and the man that she is desperately trying to escape. Ace is dead set on protecting Jenna, but, as she slowly learns to trust him enough to open up to, he finds himself landing in the middle of a human trafficking operation and a feud that goes way back, between the ringleader and his club. Suddenly, life doesn't seem so simple... Work in progress, especially the blurb! This story has content which may offend some readers. Mild coarse language! Physical and sexual violence! Lots of drug references! First draft! I don't own the cover image! I'm a disappointment to my family!

❝ You deserve the love you keep giving to everyone else. ❞ - The first emotion to fill Victoria Hunt when she was told about her father and step mothers passing, relief. But like every good emotion she'd felt over fourteen years, it came to an end quickly. The cause of it this time was being told she would have to live with brothers she never knew she had. It could be a fresh start, a chance to move on and finally have a real family. But the deeper she looks into eyes that stare back at her with empty promises and sweet spoken lies, she realizes that although she was never set for a good future, this one, might just be one she can't face. But families are supposed to stay together right? So through spilt blood and secrets and traitorous acts, surely even that can't stop DNA. It's an unspoken rule when you're a Hunt, no time for loyalty, no time for decisions on if you'd die for them, it's just a simple fact. You were born together so love or not, you must die together. For her sake, she should grasp onto that sooner rather than later. - Highest Rankings : #1 in brother #1 in support #1 in confidence #2 in siblings
