The Phoenix Knights MC: Strength of Love (Rebecca Waters) novel Chapter 16

Olivia’s POV-

The moment I heard his voice, I had to pull Carnage, I mean Daniel closer. He makes me feel so safe. I

knew if there was anyone that could keep me safe, it would be him. I know my dad is in the room, and he

would protect me, but all I could think about was how safe I felt in Daniel’s arms right now.

“It’s him,” I whispered, and I felt the immediate shift in the entire room.

“We will keep you safe, my queen.” Daniel whispered, kissing my head..

“He is right, we will not let him get near you,” Dad said, stroking my head.

The door flung open, and my egg donor burst into the room first, still dressed in the dress she left in after

her husband beat on me.

I whispered, “Help me sit up.”

Daniel slid off the bed and helped me sit upright, changing the position of the bed, tucking a pillow behind

my head, and pulling the blankets over me.

“Thank you,” I whispered.

“Always, my queen.” Daniel pressed a kiss to my cheek.

I held his hand to give me strength, as I finally looked up at my egg donor.

“Why are all these men in my daughter’s room?” She growled, which is when I noticed that my dad didn’t

have his cut on and still had his back to her.

I chuckled before wincing and grabbing the side of my ribs. I gritted my teeth, as I said, “Oh, so you care

now.”

“What are you talking about? I have always cared.” She responded.

“I am positive you were smirking as he beat me earlier.” I hissed.

“You were in an accident, that is what the police said.” She said.

I nodded, “No, they just said that to get you here. Not that I would ever want to go home with you again, so you might as well leave.”

“I am your mother, you will be coming home with me!” She growled.

I glanced at my dad, and he gave me a subtle nod of his head. I sighed, “Well, I think I will go home with the Phoenix Knights instead, after all, he is my dad.”

I gestured towards my dad, who winked at me, and stood up, turning around slowly.

“Well, Angel, what a pleasant surprise? Oh, wait, you go by Angela Jones now. At least I know why you left the way you did. You hid my child from me. My daughter,” Dad said to my egg donor.

“She is my daughter!” Harry growled, stepping into the room.

“I am not your daughter, never was and never will be. I’d rather chew my own foot off, then be your

daughter.” I said. Earning chuckles from the bikers in the room.

Harry growled again and stepped towards me. Dad stepped in his way and said in a cold calculating voice,

“You take another step towards my daughter, and I will break every single bone in your body, you pathetic

excuse for a man.”

“None of you has any legal grounds to be here!” Harry growled.

“Actually, they do, as Mr. Anderson here had the proof that he is the biological father, and the doctors here

will attest to the severity of the abuse and neglect that Olivia has been through at your hands for the past ten years of her life. She has also given a statement as well.” A woman said, stepping forward with a

police officer close to her.

“You questioned a minor without her parents present. The nurse said she had a concussion. She probably

is remembering things incorrectly!” Harry roared.

“I am her biological father. I am. Not you. So, you stay the hell away from her!” Dad shattered.

A heated argument ensued.

I turned to look at Daniel and whispered, “My phone. Where is my phone?”

Daniel retrieved it and handed it to me. I pressed my finger on the screen to unlock it. The moment it unlocked, I tapped on the app that looked like a black hole, with the name of the new game called Black

Hole. You got to try and stop a black hole from swallowing your planet. No one would think that it was a

huge storage app of my own design, connected straight to that camera I had in my room.

As it loaded, I turned my phone to the side.

Daniel moved closer to get a look and whispered, “Evidence.”

“Yep,” I said, popping the “p” as I spoke.

“Is this live?” he asked, keeping his voice low.

୮

“Yep, but then we can look at the storage,” I replied, tapping on the large most recent file, which began playing from when I got into my room.

“Motion censored,” he whispered.

I nodded, “My own design.”

I fast–forwarded it to when I picked up my phone and called Daniel. Only fast forwarding it enough to when I closed the door and put the chair under it. Then I turned the volume up, just as the banging started on my bedroom door, making everyone stop in my hospital stop upon hearing the loud noise.

I turned my phone screen around and showed everyone in the room. They gasped as they saw everything that happened, and hearing his words, the words that Harry said to me as he bragged about how he was

I turned my phone back to me, I rewound the video and zoomed in, pausing on it on my mother’s smirking face. Then I showed everyone, as I said, “And, I have hundreds more of these videos. You, Harry, I am

someone who you could never break. I was waiting for the right moment to leave. Looks like I found it, in

my biological father. You think I worked hard at school, so you wouldn’t beat me. No, early admission into

college was my way out at the time. I am old enough to make my own mind up, to weigh the risks and

benefits of every decision…”

I turned to look at the officer, and I presume the CPS worker who had spoken out against Harry.

“I want them arrested for child neglect and child abuse. I want to be removed from their care and placed

in the care of my biological father.” I winced, towards the end.

“Don’t strain yourself, my queen, rest now, they will deal with that.” Daniel said, as he took my hand and

moved the bed back a little, helping me lower back onto the bed.

“Don’t you fucking touch my daughter, she will not date some biker scum!” My egg donor yelled.

I growled, “They are better men than that scumbag of a husband of yours. They saved my life today, when

you left me on the floor with a punctured lung, choking on my own blood. They have taken care of me

more in the past few hours than you have in your entire life. I am choosing to go home with my biological

father. And, FYI, I will damn date and fuck whoever the fuck I want to.”

My heart rate had spiked and raising my voice the way I did increased how heavily I was breathing, which

caused pain in my ribs, making me wince, and the machine go off. The doctor and nurses came rushing in

to check on me.

Dad looked at the officer I had looked at and said, “Well, you heard my daughter, Chief Briggs. She wants them arrested. Clearly, they need to be removed from the room before they cause further harm to my

daughter.”

The officer called for more help, and three more came into my room, taking hold of my egg donor and

Harry. They were dragged from the room.

My heart rate steadied as the doctor asked me, “How are you feeling?”

“As someone stomped on my ribs with their boot, oh wait, they did,” I said sarcastically, despite my

wincing.

“You are a sarcastic one, aren’t you?” the doctor chuckled.

“Nope, just hiding pain through laughter. Something I can’t currently do with the amount of pain I am in.” I

said.

“Well, how about we get some food in you, and then we can give you more pain relief?” The doctor replied.

“I am not hungry,” I replied.

“You need to eat something,” the doctor said, to which I shook my head.

“Princess, I would like you to eat something please. I will kick everyone out if you want, so it is only you and me.” Dad said, making me look up at him, shaking my head as I pulled Daniel’s hand closer to me.

Dad chuckled, “Carnage can stay. He even told us your favorite thing to eat from a very specific bakery.”

I looked up at Daniel and said, “Phoenix Bakery.”

“Croissants from there are your favorite things for breakfast. I have noticed how many times you have

gotten them for breakfast on your way to school. The bakery is owned by the club. Prez arranged for one

of the guys to go and get some freshly baked ones for you, because I suggested it.” Daniel explained,

shrugging his shoulders like it was no big deal.

But to me, it meant the world. He has paid that much attention to me that he remembered exactly what I

like.

The doctor cleared his throat and said, “If you can eat a whole one, then I will get you some more pain

relief.”

I nodded.

As the nurse whispered, “You have one incredible boyfriend there. Offered to give his blood to you if you

needed it.”

I looked at the nurse as she waved and left the room. I whispered, “Boyfriend?”

My brow furrowed because I didn’t have a boyfriend.

“Princess, I am going to go outside with the rest of the guys for a minute. I need to talk with the CPS

worker and my lawyer about you. I want to make sure you come home with me. Carnage will stay with you till I get back, and then we will have to talk.”

I nodded, “Okay, dad.”

“I will be right back,” he smiled, as another biker walked in, carrying a box that had the symbol of the
