Psycho - Headless Horsemen MC novel Chapter 16

- Jax -

I wake up and shift in my bed, my hand moving to where Harley had fallen asleep, her side is cold, I open my eyes and look around the room, she not in here. I rub my eyes and look at the clock on my bedside table, 10:30 am. I groan and go to lay back down when a note catches my eye. I sit up in bed and see Harley's phone on top of it, I slide her phone off of the piece of paper and read it.

'What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas'

What the fuck does that mean? Gunner... She was going to ride with Gunner today. Anger engulfs me as I throw on a pair of jeans and my cut making my way downstairs. "WHERE ARE THEY?" I yell out across the room, everyone turns to look at me. Snake and Shark Eyes make their way over to me, my hands shaking with anger.

"Wheres who prez?" I grab Snake by his cut and push him up against the bar, "Don't fucking play me Snake I'll snap your fucking neck without a second thought, where the fuck is Gunner and Harley?" His eyes widen and he furiously shakes his head.

"They were gone by the time everyone else woke up" my grip tightens on his cut, my knuckles becoming whiter by the second. I feel someone touch my shoulder and I snap my neck around to see who it is, Shelby stands there with tears in her eyes, "They left around 6, I've tried to call Gunner but he won't answer, do you think she would have killed him?" Tears fall down her face I turn back to face Snake and take a shaky breath before letting him go.

Suddenly the front doors swing open and Gunner stumbles in, blood dried on the side of his face, Shelby rushes over to him and helps him to a seat. I storm over to him "Where the fuck is she, Gunner, what did you do to her?!" He looks up to me and I look over his face, hes panicked, upset, shaken. Whatever happened its bad.

"W-we went for a ride and pulled up at the place that her and Shelby are staying... I thought nothing of it.." by now all of the men and women in the bar have gathered around us waiting for Gunner to speak, "We walked in and she must have hit me, the next thing I knew I woke up on the couch, dried blood on my face and a sticky note on my head" he takes out the folded piece of paper and hands it to me, "I'm sorry brother" he says quietly while looking at the floor, my heart beats a thousand miles a minute.

I open it up and read the simple word 'Sorry' it's in her handwriting. I turn my attention back to Gunner, "Did she say anything? Anything about where she was going to go?" He shakes his head, "FUCK" I yell throwing a chair across the room, and then it hits me, the note she left me, Vegas. I go to walk off but Dino calls out to me.

"Prez, I have someone on the phone for you" I grab ahold of my hair slight tugging on it "If its not Harley tell them to fuck off" he looks at me seriously before speaking "Trust me prez, I think you'll want to hear this" I walk over and grab the phone off of him before making my way to my office.

Once I sit down I put the phone to my ear, "Speak" I bark down the phone, "Is that any way to speak to one of your best friends?" The voice says through the phone, I recognise it instantly as the president of our sister club in Las Vegas, my stomach churns, why would he be calling me? "What's up?" I ask pinching the bridge of my nose before lighting a cigarette.

"We were on our way to drop off an order before bringing the one you requested but we've had a little mishap" I inhale my cigarette before asking "What mishap?" He breathes out heavily "There was this girl on a Harley, she drove right into the front of the truck, the driver said it was on purpose, she held her hands out the sides of her and closed her eyes, the little psycho even had a smile on her face apparently".

My heart stops, it cant be... No...

My breathing hitches as he continues to speak, "But you should have seen it, the girl was incredible, jumped right off the bike before it hit the front of the truck, jumped onto the top of the driver's cab before running along the roof and jumping off the back, we turned around to see what the fuck was going on but she was gone by the time we got there, only thing we could find were some clothes and a broken baseball bat".

My heart starts again once hes finished speaking, my voice shaking as I try to speak, "Go back to your clubhouse, we will be there in a few hours. Keep an eye out for the girl" he chuckles and answers me "Sure thing brother, I'll see you soon" I hang up the phone and make my way downstairs again, "CHRUCH NOW" I march towards the wooden doors slamming them open before making my way to my seat, one by one all of my brothers pile in. "Prospects too," I say as calmly as i can. Once everyone's in there i place my hands infront of me on the table and look around at everyone.

I roll my eyes and spot Knuckle's on the phone. He hangs up quickly before making his way over to me, "Someone's spotted her" I jump out of my seat, "Where?" I say as I grab my gun off of the table placing in the waistband of my pants. "At one of the clubs we own, she's been there for an hour or so. Apparently she keeps trying to stab people that get too close to her, so I have one of my men keeping a close eye on her" my blood boils at the thought of someone else watching her. "What's the name of the club?" I ask through gritted teeth, "Black Diamond, I don't think it's a good idea if you go ton-" I cut him off before he has the chance to speak more.

"Like fuck its not, I'm going to get my woman. End of story" go to walk out the door when snake grabs ahold on my arm, "Have you found her?" His eyes filled with worry, I nod my head simply and turn to walk away, "I'm coming with you" I shake my head and laugh at him, "No you're not. I promise I'll bring her back here unharmed" I go to walk away again when he stops me once more, "Brother please, I couldn't save her last time, please" I groan. "Fine, bring the old man too" he nods and runs to grab Shark Eyes.

We head out the front and start our bikes, heading towards the club. We pull up out the front and make our way to the front doors. The bouncers take one look at our cuts and nod letting us through straight away. Once we enter the atmosphere is crazy, the rooms almost black with lights flying around everywhere, the smell of sweat, sex and alcohol drift up to my nose as I push my way through the crowds.

Random girl's latch onto my arms as I try to maneuver through the crowd, I shake them off one by one and continue. The more girls that try to touch me the angrier I get, no one can touch me, except Harley. Finally, we make our way to the other side of the club and that's when I see her, in the middle of the dance floor swaying her body to the beat of the music.

Her eyes closed as she moves her body perfectly to the rhythm. She's wearing high heel boots that reach her thighs, making my mouth instantly water at the sight of her perfect body and an oversized shirt, the closer I get I realise it's my shirt, she must have taken it before I left if I thought she looked sexy before, fuck me.

I take a step closer and someone grabs my shoulder, I turn around to see a bouncer holding me back. "Don't do it, I can't save everyone from being stabbed" I smirk " I hope she does, it would turn me on even more". Shrugging his hand off of my shoulder I make my way to the middle of the dancefloor and warp my arms around her waist pulling her back into my front, she starts to fight back but I hold her arms to her side, I lean down and her body tenses, she knows.

"Found you kitten" I whisper.
