“Well stupid brother, she wouldn’t have to make threats or come to your home if your stupid ass gave us the money you were supposed to. You know, being the worthless piece of shit that our parents had to pay for, for seventeen years of his life. You owe them seventeen years worth of money to make up for the fact that they had to support your worthless ass.”

I look over at my sister and see a stranger. When she was little she was so sweet, but once she noticed the dynamics of the family and how I was treated differently she thought it was okay to behave like the rest of them.

“I owe you nothing. You stupid bitch. I owe them nothing. I worked from the time I was twelve on making my own money and taking care of myself. You all did nothing, but subject me to shit I shouldn’t have had to see or experience.”

“Well that’s how your daddy wanted it. Sorry, but yes you owe us a shitload of money. Especially since I kept you and no one wanted you. Your daddy wanted me to get rid of you. So you better understand that you owe me for your life.”

I look at her and I see that she is being truthful and I don’t understand any of this.

“Explain to me, Linda, why would he want you to get rid of me? You had two kids after me so obviously he was fine having more kids, why get rid of me?”

She looked and laughed, “You really don’t know do you? That’s wonderful. I didn’t think you could be more of an idiot. You see when your daddy was away in prison when Travis was two, I decided I wanted to try my hand at being, what do you dumb bikers call it, a club girl? I needed the money and with your daddy away, I needed access to some drugs. Plus someone to help take care of Travis. So I got involved with a biker club in town. Fucked as many of those bikers as I could. They were all delicious, so good looking. I’m sure that’s why you turned out the way you did. Your daddy, he got out on an early release, for good behavior, and I went back to him, leaving the life of a club girl to be with your daddy. Turns out I was already pregnant with you before he got out of prison. Well he wasn’t too happy when he found out that some filthy biker knocked me up while he was away. So he wanted me to get rid of you. Obviously, he wasn’t pissed that I was fucking around with other men, as you know he enjoys when I fuck around with other men, but he was angry someone else put a baby in me.”

And just like that my world is rocked. The only club around here is Devil’s Chaos. So unless they moved, someone in the club is my biological father. I stagger back and look up at her as my mother and sister laugh hysterically at me. I turn and look at my brothers and the Untamed men that are with me. My brothers look shocked and Thorn has inched closer to me to stand at my back like the best friend that he is. He places his hand on my shoulder and looks at my mother with disgust.

“What club?” He asks her.

She laughs again, “Well yours, duh. There was only one club around here at the time. I mean I would’ve expanded my horizons if there were more.”

He walks past me and looks at her with hate in his eyes, she cowers back because the man is large and he is scary. “Which brothers?”

“Which brothers? You mean which ones could possibly be the daddy to your good buddy Cooper here?”

“Yes you dumb bitch! WHO DID YOU FUCK!?!”

“Well don’t worry there Tanner, it wasn’t your daddy or your uncle because by the time I got there they were already married and having babies. So in love I couldn’t even sway them. They would’ve been good to get though, wouldn’t they have.”

“GIVE ME THEIR NAMES!”

“It’s funny really, you would think that they would have recognized him, but then I guess he didn’t really tell anyone about his family and we were never around. You want to know, are you sure? Could really shake up this club of yours.”

“GIVE ME THE FUCKING NAMES!” He continues to get in her face, practically spitting and I am standing there in shock at the information that was just passed to me. The man who abused me for years, the man who treated me horribly was not my father. The siblings that I have are not my full siblings. My life could’ve been different. I know all the men at Devil’s Chaos, had they known they would’ve done something. I just don’t know who.

“Fine, calm down big guy.” She says and rolls her eyes moving away from Thorn. “There were many, but I had my favorites. Beautiful cocks, really knew how to use them. Let’s see there was Devil,” When she says that name, I turn and look at Rage who at this point looks back at me and I see in his eyes he is about to blow. “Chains, Ghost, Diesel, Stone and Snake. My favorites though, the ones I made sure to go to over and over and over again especially around the times I was pregnant were Devil, Chains and Ghost. They weren’t attached to anyone, didn’t have any ol’ ladies yet. And ooooooh were they good.”

“You are disgusting. You lied to me my entire life!”

“Oh like it would’ve made a difference, those men wouldn’t have taken you. You were nothing to them, just like I was nothing to them. So I gave you a home with a family that raised you, now back to what I said before, give me the money you owe me. I’m needing a fix.”

I pull out my wallet and grab the money that I have in there. It is roughly $1000, I stopped and grabbed some cash on the way home. I threw it at her.

“There, I owe you nothing else. Stay the fuck away from me and stay the fuck away from my family.”

I walk back towards my bike and get on it. Not waiting for anyone else I speed off towards the clubhouse.

Chapter Twenty-Seven

Whip

All the way back to the clubhouse my mind is racing a mile a minute. My whole life has been a fucking lie and how is it that fate brought to me back to the one place that I was conceived in. How the fuck is any of this even possible? How did no one know? They kept this a secret and treated me like their slave. My childhood was a living hell all because my mother decided to be a whore and that she wanted to live a good life while Ray was in prison. Obviously Travis and Amber were let in on this little family secret. But no one thought they would let me know. I mean fuck this would’ve been perfect ammunition for them to use when they were being horrible to me.

I don’t know what I am going to do with any of this information, all I know is I can’t go back to Briarfield tonight. I need to stay here in Richmond. My head is a mess, I can’t deal with everything else I have to deal with right now. Shit with Peyton is a mess and this is only going to be something else that I don’t want to deal with with her right now. As I pull up to the gate and get let in I park my bike and see that not only did the Devil’s Chaos brothers follow me shortly after, but so did the Untamed. I get off my bike and head over to where Knox is on his bike.

“You need to head out and head home. Go be with Peyton and the kids.”

He looks at me and sighs, “Don’t let this fuck up your relationship with Peyton and the kids. I know it’s a lot to deal with, but Whip don’t let their secrets and lies come in between you and your family.”

“Listen, I’m not. I need to clear my head and figure some shit out. I can’t do it there. I just need a night or two. Please. I will call her, I will text her, she is going to know that I’m staying here and that everything is okay. I need you to go be with them, please.I just–” I look at my brothers who are standing by the clubhouse door waiting for me, “I just need to figure this out. My life is not what I thought it was.”
