Jenna

I cover myself up with the shirt I normally paired with my outfit, it isn’t much coverage, but at least I won’t be exposed to everyone at the club when I pull in. The throbbing on my face and head are worse. I can feel the pounding in the back of my head. I didn’t know how bad I was, I just know that this isn’t good. I counted fifteen blows to my face. Fifteen too many. I’ll have to assess my body for injuries when I got back into the club.

Shit.

I pull my car past the gates of the clubhouse, turning my wheel, and I spot my hand and the blood steadily dripping down it. I don’t even know how I got cut on my hand. Maybe throwing the knife, maybe something else.

I slowly approach my parking space on the left side of the clubhouse. Not too close to the doors but also not too far away. I quickly put my car into park as dizziness starts to wash over my sight. Opening the door, sliding my hand along the frame, I use it to support myself. Of all the times to get dizzy again, it has to be right now? Both of the dogs hop out almost immediately after me, whining loudly, causing brother and brother to divert their attention to me.

“Jenna?” I glance around to see who is calling my name, not being able to recognize anything. My vision worsens as the moments pass by, and all I can see are shadow like figures surrounding me. I try again, so hard, to recognize who is in front of me. Blinking rapidly, I thought I’d be able to see them. It doesn’t help one bit.

“What the fuck happened?” I can’t see anything for shit. What I can do is recognize the irritated voice in front of me.

Enzo.

All of a sudden, I am a goner, my legs turning to jello under my body. I am swaying from left to right, barely able to keep myself up. I think somehow my body knows I am safe and is shutting down. It is terrifying. I just want to get back into my room and rest. I don’t want this – the exhibition for everyone around me.

A firm set of hands wraps around my body, pressing me close to him. I know my body wants to move, wants to collapse, wants to shut down. The man holding me to him won’t allow that. He is far too stubborn. “Kotenok,” he growls at me, his voice deeper and darker than I’ve ever heard before. Him calling me kitten brings me comfort, even if my body is pulsing with agony.

“D-Dmitri,” I mumble, as tears slide from my eyes. I’m a strong woman, but at the same time, I know my limitations. All I want to do is stay in the arms of this man – a man who I know will protect me.
