Chapter Sixteen

I wake to the sounds of men yelling and cursing outside the bedroom window. I groan and struggle out of bed. Moving toward the window, I pull back the curtain and see Will, Nick, both my dads, and all my brothers surrounding Jake. They're attempting to lead him somewhere, and he's fighting them.

I groan again, sigh, then throw my filthy clothes back on. As I make my way through the house and head for the back door, several of my family members try to stop me. I ignore the ones I can, and reassure the ones I can't. Once I'm outside in the cold, I turn to my right and round the house to come face to face with the mob.

Everyone stops and quiets when they see me, and Jake is the only one not wearing a look of anger. Will's eyes are black with rage, so maybe anger is too light of a description.

“What's going on?” My voice comes out in a weak croak from my throat being so dry. I clear it a few times and repeat myself.

No one speaks. Jake has a huge self-satisfied smirk on his face, so I know whatever it is, can't be good. “Jake? What did you do?” A sharp sense of foreboding settles on me. I watch Will's face darken even more.

“Seems you forgot to inform Billy-Boy on how much you enjoyed my bed, and that we ran off together. He's under the impression I kidnapped you. You went with me willingly, Canada. You made love to me with no resistance on your part at all. At least, not our first night. The second time you had a few issues, but it didn't last very long. After that, you never had a problem jumping in bed with me. So why don't you tell this lynch mob the truth. Tell them you love me, damn it, and to let me go.”

I stare at Jake's stupid grin, shock waves pulsing through me. I never imagined having to tell Will this way, in front of everyone, and having to explain why Jake's versions of events weren't too far off from the truth. It definitely wasn't the truth Jake believes, but there was some truth hidden in it. Hidden deeply, and so much more complex than Jake prefers, but it's there none the less.

I did stop fighting him, what was the point? It was going to happen no matter what I said or did. It could either have happened with me being severely beaten first, or I could have done what I had to do in order to survive. But I, in no freaking way, wanted it to happen. And I damn sure hadn't felt any love towards the idiot by that point.

I look around at everyone waiting for me to answer, and my terror increases, afraid no one will believe me. Finally, I find some words to give them. “I had no choice but to go with him. He was about to discover Melody
