Chapter 3: Tara's Mother Is Back.
My name is Tina, I am Fury's woman. I am the mother of four sons and one daughter. I brought back his high school girlfriend and their son. That is right, he didn't know his 17-year-old girlfriend was pregnant when he left town.
We pulled up and got out of the car. We all walked in and over to the VIP table. "Hello, Fury. I am back. and I brought you a gift. Your oldest son and his mother."
"Nice to see you again, Fury. I want you to meet our son. Steve, this is your father. Fury this is your son."
We watched as he stood there looking at Steve for the longest time. Then he looked over at Shelly. "I didn't know you were pregnant when I left."
"No, you wouldn't. I never got the chance to tell you."
"Fury, you two have time to talk. Right now, I want to know if you really kicked our daughter out of this club because she was raped."
"Yes, I did kick her out. I was smiling at him."
"What the hell are you laughing about?"
"I am going to divorce you and there is nothing you can do about it since you did sign a contract. You remember. That even if our daughter was raped, you will never throw her out of the clubhouse."
"The contract that says if you do, I may divorce you and take everything with me that belongs to me. That one."
I walked out the club door and waited for the members to come outside. After burning the cut and divorcing Fury I walked over and handed the envelope to him. "This removed you from all my accounts. And I also have a new will. Don't worry, oh, wait."
"You better worry about the money. I yelled for four prospects to get boxes and bring them to my bedroom."
"Fury, why don't you try and get Shelly to let her claim you? I do believe you will get one hell of a shock."
I turned and walked to my bedroom. After all the boxes were packed and loaded into one of the club trucks, I drove from the compound to the house right next door to Tara's. My house was about one mile from Tara's.
I unpacked the truck and then called Tara. She is going to follow me to Fury's compound, so no one had to come and get it. I parked it got out and handed the keys to the truck to a prospect.
I walked over and got into the passenger door of Tara's car. I so the prospect watching her back out onto the road and drive away. After they left, I took the key into the clubhouse and handed it to our VP.
I watched as our VP and president looked at each other, I knew there was some deep shit going on. All I have to say is that our president asked for everything he has gotten thrown at him today.
I sat at the table and just looked around. "What is he doing here?"
I sat back watching him watch the clock. Something is going on I wonder what the hell is going to happen next. This clubhouse has fallen apart. I didn't sign on to see women kicked out of the club for getting raped.
The good women that get raped do not ask for what happened to them. They are usually raped for revenge or anger. I just don't understand why they do it. But I sure will not tolerate it around me.
I can't believe that Fury has lost the club money. Even though it was not the club's money, to begin with. He will want all of us to get jobs and give the club half our money.
Also, he has no allies right now. What the hell have his actions gotten us into? I looked across the table at Preacher. "I know what you are thinking, prospect. We are all asking ourselves the same question."
"We have to wait and see what is going to happen."
I leaned my head back and closed my eyes. I just drank my beer and listened. I also kept my eyes on William. I know Fury wants one of them to become the next president.
Personally, I don't think any one of them will become the next president. But I do think that he is up to something. I will stay out of it. He is the president's son. Let him deal with William.
Back at Tina's house, Tara told her she had to go dancing. She needed to be in her own world. Her mother understood. Let's go to the strip club. We own it and if you want to dance, you dance. I will call Connie and inform her you will be doing the dancing and for the girls to have a break.
When you take a break and leave the stage, the girls will fill in until you go back on. " I still have my outfits at the strip club. So, we can go into the back door."
"I informed Connie you would be dancing tonight."
As mom drove around the back and parked the car, I opened the door to see our bouncer, Fist holding the door for us. I smiled at him, but he looked into my eyes. He knew. He knew I would not want to be bothered. Not tonight.
I dressed in my first outfit for tonight. I walked out to my music. I grabbed the bar and climbed it. I was in my own world. My world where I can turn every cheating man on and make them want me. Yet, I put out the impression I could please anyone of you.
But not one of you even has a chance with me. I will let you look. But I will not let you touch. I just needed to dance and show the pain, anger, and hate that is inside me out. To show men that I am not going to take any more of their shit.
I will show them I am a woman who can take care of herself. Who won't let any of them near me? Don't ask to talk to me. Don't buy me a drink. And do not come close to me. I will freeze you out.
My name is Shadow. That is where I am setting right now. In the shadows. I am watching the woman. I can't see her face. She is wearing a mask. But her body I will never forget. She is beautiful. Her breasts are just right for a man to hold in his hands.
There is something about her. It is as if I know her. But I am sure I have never met her. I noticed every man's eyes on her. And it is quiet.
She made every one of us want to hold her and bring happiness to her eyes. I looked across from me and saw William the VP of my brother's club looking at me.
"She is beautiful, isn't she? And when she dances, she makes all of you men want to hold her. To take the sadness away from her."
"Yes, she does. And what is she to you?"
"She is my sister."
I turned my head and looked at him. "She is your sister? That is Tara. The one your father kicked out of his clubhouse for getting raped?"
"That is Tara, my only sister. And yes, she is the one our father kicked out of his clubhouse."
"She has not danced since that day."
"Something else must have happened for her to be dancing tonight."
Around 3:00 in the morning, we watched as she walked off the stage for the last time. I looked over at William. "So, where is she staying now?"
"I don't know where she is staying. No one knows. And no one can follow her. No one leaves until she has been gone for at least one hour. So don't try to leave. They won't let you."
Mom dropped me off at my house. I told her I would call later and walked into the house. I watched as mom drove away and drove into her driveway.
I walked to my bedroom and closed the door. I took a shower and washed my hair. I dressed, brushed, and braided my hair before turning the bathroom light off, I walked into the bedroom.
I turned the tv on and then turned the light off before covering up with the blanket. I leaned back staring at the tv. I don't know when I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
I tossed and turned dreaming of running. Running as fast and as far as I could get from Fury. My father never believed I was his daughter. After all, he has four boys. He could never have a daughter.
I woke up in a cold sweat. I slowly sat up and walked to the shower. I took my shower and put on leggings and a long shirt before walking to the kitchen. Once there I made breakfast and cleaned up when I finished.
I grabbed a cup of coffee, a notebook, a pen, and a book before walking out of the kitchen onto the back porch. I walked over and sat down at the table and placed everything down before sitting on the chair.
I leaned back and looked around the woods. I sat and listened to the birds singing, and tree limbs falling down in the woods, and then heard what sounded like people talking.
I slowly stood up and listened. I heard footsteps and talking. I listened even more. I heard a man and a woman talking. I slowly walked over to the kitchen door opened it shut it and locked it.
I ran to the living room closed the curtains and locked the front door. I reached over for my gun and listened. I looked out the crack of the curtain and watched them walk up the steps to the door.
They started knocking. "Hello, is someone in there?"
I text mom as she didn't care if they knew where she lived or not. I heard mom's car stop in the driveway. "Can I help you? I heard her ask."
"Yes, we thought we saw someone walking around the house."
Lie, I thought.
"Someone does live here in fact. My daughter lives here. She doesn't like the company she is angry at the world. She doesn't like to be bothered either. She can be a real bitch when someone stops by without calling first."
"You see, most of the time she is in the basement exercising. She exercises more than 8 hours a day. She works nights and sometimes days."
"Oh, we are sorry, we own the cabin across the woods from hers and yours. We won't bother her again."
"Thank you, I am sure she would appreciate that."
I saw my mother watching them walk away across the yard. I unlocked the door and let her inside. She locked the door before I put the gun back and then we walked into the kitchen.
Mom stopped and poured her a cup of coffee before walking out the door and over to the table where she pulled out a chair and sat down across from me
"So, mom when are you going to tell me you are dating someone?"
"I never could keep anything from you, could I?"
"I will let you all meet him soon. But not right now. And Tara. Not all men are bad."
"You show me one that can keep his cock in his jeans, love a woman for who she is and not want to hurt or change them and a man that will stand up for her. Believe in her and not take the word of a whore, or brother he knows can't tell the truth."
"And if I could show you a man like that? Maybe even four men like that."
"I still would not believe he is all that. Mom, I can't let a man get close to me. Not after what they did to me. I just can't do it. I can have him touch me. I can't ever forget what they did. I see it over and over in my mind."
I arrived at my father's clubhouse. I might be his son. But I am also his VP. His club is 10 miles from Fury's. I am still thinking of Tara. How she made every man want her, to protect her, to hold her. I can't believe her mother is my father's girlfriend. If he claimed her, that would make Tara my stepsister.
I can forget dating her. I am sure her mother would tell her to stay away from me. I am not a good man anyway. She is out of my league. She is the daughter of a president. Soon to be the stepdaughter of another president.
If she becomes my stepsister, I will protect her. I have to make sure not to show my feelings for her.
