Jayden (Aces MC Series Book 4.5) by Aimee-Louise Foster

Apparently you're a good shag and you've shown
loyalty which I respect." He jogged up the stairs, "Follow me."
He blurted out expecting me to chase after him.
I pulled the strap to my rucksack so that it balanced on my shoulder and slowly
walked up the stairs holding onto the banisters as I was feeling light headed.
Richmond stood further down the landing by an unopened door, "This will be
your room until my dad states otherwise. Unpack your stuff, take a shower and
then come and find me as I have some information that you'll want to
hear." Richmond turned the brass handle and pushed on the door, the light
shone through the room and a stream landed in the hallway.
I slowly made my way towards the room, the whole thing felt surreal. Less than
twelve hours ago Spyder was beating the fuck out of me, and now he was putting
me up in his house. I couldn't understand the change of heart, if he did like
me the way Pyet said, why did he feel the need to assault me?
    Walking into the room, I noticed
how clean and tidy it was. The furniture, including the bed frame were white
and the only other colour used was a subtle hint of lilac. Fresh flowers were
displayed on the window cill and on the desk, and there were an array of picture
frames around the room that were empty. I turned towards Richmond, "Are
you sure this is my room?"
He rolled his eyes, "Yes I'm sure. Like I said unpack, take a shower and
come find me." He closed the door and I heard it lock but I didn't care, I
was too busy observing the bed and thinking about the good night's sleep I'd have
in that. I further investigate the room and opened the wardrobe doors to see an
array of women's clothing all in my size, there was also underwear and
nightwear in the drawers in my size also. I walked towards a door in the far
corner of the room and opened it wide expecting to see another cupboard but it
was the entrance to an en suite. I jogged over to the bath and eagerly placed
the plug in the hole before turning the taps on. After my ordeal I needed a
long hot soak in the bath to sooth some of the pain and was planning to do this
before I did anything else.
    I had spent thirty minutes in the
bath relaxing and tending to my wounds, I had mainly bruising but I also had a
nasty cut on my stomach. I'd found a first aid kit in the bathroom and had
cleaned and dressed the wound as best I could with my limited supplies, it
didn't need stitches but it was nasty all the same.
    Rather than getting into the
clothes that I'd brought with me, I decided to take a proper look through the
wardrobe and selected a simple outfit of black trousers and smart top making
sure that it covered the bruises I had on my arms and upper body.
I was now ready to go in search of Richmond but I knew that he'd locked the
door, I tried the handle to test it and was surprised when it opened. Maybe I
was being tested, Richmond had mentioned that Spyder informed him of my loyalty
and maybe this was just a game to see how loyal I actually was. The thing was
though, it wasn't loyalty I was just so shit scared to step out of line through
fear of what may happen to my sister or me.
    I pulled the door open wide and
poked my head out onto the landing, I could hear a television on in the
distance and decided to go and see if he was there. I hoped that Spyder still
wasn't home. I knew he was responsible for moving me here but he'd hurt me last
night more than anyone had ever hurt me before. I had pure hatred for him, and
I needed time for it to subside before I spoke to him otherwise I wouldn't be
civil. We'd then end up getting into another fight and I hadn't recovered from
the one last night yet. One thing I knew for sure, was that he wasn't going to
get away with it, he'd humiliated me on so many levels now that he needed to
pay for all the hurt he'd caused. I didn't know how or when but he would suffer
and preferably by my own hands.
    I walked towards the noise and
stood at the opened door, "Richmond are you in here." I
