The Biker’s Mafia Princess (Angel and Savage) novel Chapter 2

Rebel POV.

I’m shoved to the ground landing hard a split second after the guns went off. I land and the air leaves me in a whoosh.

“MOM!” I scream as she lies on top of me. “Mom, what did you do?” I say and she wheezes. I push her gently to the ground and begin to check her over. My dad comes running to check her over. She lifts her hand and cups my cheek. Tears streaming down her face.

“I’m sorry Rebel, what she said, don’t you dare believe it? I always wanted you, always. I couldn’t stand back and watch my little girls fighting like this. I did what I had to. I love you so much, my little princess. I am sorry.” She chokes as I find where she was shot. I pull my hand away and see blood.

“Stay still mom, you will be ok. Ok, you stay calm. You won’t die, not like this. Ok.” I have tears streaming down my face as I remove the vest from her. The bullet hit her shoulder. I add pressure.

“Mom, I need to check the wound, ok, hold on. I NEED A KIT, ALESSA GET ME A FUCKING KIT NOW!” I scream as I add more pressure and she screams. My dad takes over and is talking to her. Telling her he loves her.

“I told you to stay back. You never listen.” He says and mom smiles at him, but her eyes meet mine.

“No, I’m a rebel. I always have been. Ryder, I love you.” Her eyes roll as Alessa brings the kit. I don’t even look at Luna. I don’t give a shit about her right now. Mom is more important.

“Dad, I need you to move. DAD MOVE OR SHE DIES!” I shove him away as I rip the kit open and get out what I need. I feel the hole and the bullet is lodged in her shoulder.

I get to work quickly. I look at my dad and he nods his head. I dig around in her shoulder and he screams. Blood pouring from the wound. Shit!

“Hold her down. Sorry mom, this will hurt like a motherfucker.” My dad, Alessa, and RJ hold her down. She is screaming and thrashing. I grip the bullet and slowly pull it out. Once it’s out, I grab the gauze and apply the pressure again. She screams.

“It’s ok mom, it’s ok,” I close my eyes as I pack more gauze against her shoulder. I’m in work mode. Sirens are getting louder in the distance. I look at dad and he is sobbing.

“Apply pressure.” I say to him and I stand and move to where my sister is laying. Uncle Nate, Nico, Vittoria are working on her.

“Is she alive?” I ask, and uncle Nate looks at me and nods his head. I sneer and move close to her as they try to stem the bleeding coming from her shoulder, too. She looks at me with tears in her eyes.

“Finish it.” She chokes out. I shake my head.

“No, you don’t deserve that kindness. You will live with this for the rest of your life, Luna. You need help. I never wanted this. All I wanted was my little sister, my little brother, and family, but you, you took it all. So no, I won’t finish it. I’m better than you Luna. But for some fucked up reason, I still love you, I still have hope for you.” I say as the tears leave her eyes.

“Keep her alive.” I say to uncle Nate and he nods his head.

“You’re weak Rebel …”

“Think of your child Luna.” I scream at her, “stop being selfish and think of your child, for once do something good with your life. This ends and it ends now. You come for me again and you will wish you never. Enough, it’s done.” I say as I turn and walk back to my mom as the paramedics run towards Luna and some are working on my mom.

Dante and Dylan pull me into their arms and I sigh a breath of relief. I came here to die, to finally give Luna what she wanted. I was ready, then mom shoved me and took the bullet meant for me. She shot her daughter to protect me.

“We’ve got you Rebel. Never do that again.” I nod my head against Dante’s chest. The tears fall one by one before they become a stream down my cheeks. I’m shaking now. The adrenaline has worn off. I feel weak as I turn my head and watch as the paramedics load my mom into an ambulance and Luna as well.

“Rebel.” I look at RJ and he walks to me with tears in his eyes. I break free of my men and walk to him. I open my arms for him and he falls into them. He sobs on my shoulder and I just hold him.
