Page 41 of Savage Bond

“I'm on my way to Sinner’s Ink. Roxy was at the bar doing some inventory. She called me panicked.” I go on to explain what she said and how I called the guys and asked them to go over there. How Lionel was the closest, but Jasper got there a few minutes later and what he told me.

Porter quietly listens to everything I say. I'm sure he’s dissecting every bit of information and trying to figure out the best move to make.

“I’m calling Kaleb Dixon. We’re going to need all men on deck for this one. I’m also putting out a call to every Savage member. I want every free person to help find my daughter. And when we find her-”

“I'm going to kill whoever had the balls to take her,” I growl, finishing his sentence.

“I have an empty room in the back. As soon as these clients are finished with their tattoos, we’ll keep the shop empty.” River leads me to the back as soon as I step through the doors of Sinner’s Ink. He doesn’t bother with pleasantries or chit chat. He knows this is serious and I don’t want to hear about anything that doesn’t have to do with my girl.

“Thanks, River. I appreciate this.”

“No problem. I'm assuming the rest of the club will be here shortly?”

“I'm hoping so. I'm not going to stop looking for my girl until I find her and neither will any of them.”

“Good. My dad called after he spoke with Porter. You have our club at your disposal. We’ll help in any way we can.”

A moment later, Jasper walks through the door with his brows furrowed. He doesn’t look happy. In fact, he looks angrier than I’ve ever seen him before.

“Chopper, we need to go.”

“Why? What do you know?”

He glances around, taking in our surroundings. I'm sure he doesn’t trust being in another club’s territory.

“Just say it. River’s fine. He’s helping us.”

“Yeah, well, how much is he going to help with finding and killing a Sinner?” Jasper’s voice comes out as a growl and he looks like he’s ready for a fight.

“Who?” River demands. Gone is the chill tattoo artist I’ve known for years and in his place is a ruthless club member who was born and raised to be the next president of the Sinners.

“The lowlife who grabbed her at the bar a few weeks ago.” Jasper shoves the phone in my face and I clench my jaw hard.

I almost killed this fool that night, but Storm stopped me. He said he wasn’t worth it and once he left the bar, I barely thought about him again. I didn’t think he was an issue. Roxy put him in his place and he left with his tail tucked between his legs.

“Do you know this guy?” I turn the phone for River to see the image. “This is him, right? The prospect we had issues with at Savage?”

“Yeah, that’s definitely Wilson. The guys have been razzing him since that night. He wasn’t taking it well, but I never thought he’d resort to kidnapping her. I mean seriously, what could he possibly have planned?” River scrubs a hand down his face and sighs. “I need to call my dad and talk to my brothers. This is officially Sinner’s business and we handle our own members our own way.”

He disappears out of the room and I don’t waste a second. I respond to the club message, letting everyone know exactly who we’re looking for and how the Sinner’s aren’t responsible for this. The last thing I need is a war to start between the two clubs over one prospect’s poor decision.

Chapter 25

Roxy

I groan as I try to open my eyes, but the lights are too bright and everything hurts. My head is throbbing worse than ever before and my vision is blurry.

“Where am I?” I mumble as I try to sit up.

“Princess, you aren’t in Savage territory anymore,” a strange voice mumbles. He almost sounds pleased with himself. Like somehow, he accomplished something great.

“What?” I hold my head as I move into a sitting position and try to take in my surroundings. I can’t protect myself if I don’t know what I'm up against.

My gaze moves around the filthy room until it settles on the man watching me. The same man who tried to manhandle me a few weeks ago at the bar. I laid him out on the floor and almost made him cry before I made him leave with his little friends following him.

“Why am I here?” I growl, as my vision slowly starts to clear.

“Well, you can’t just humiliate me and get away with it. Do you know how much crap I’ve been getting from the patched members since the stunt you pulled? I needed to prove to them that I'm not some push over who can be taken down by a girl.”
