Noah POV

I walked up to the bar. Spike, the bartender, smiled at me, but his eyes were on her. The girl who’d been scared of me since she first saw me. I glanced back. Sherly was leading her into a quieter area.

"Why'd you bring a puppy to a place like this, Noah? We can't involve outsiders with Black Hell."

"She won't have anything to do with Black Hell. I'm just messing around a bit," I replied. "Give me a beer."

"You're riding, Noah!" Spike warned.

I scoffed. So what if I was riding? I can handle my shit, no matter what.

"How long's it been since you went home, Noah?"

"Just shut up, Spike. Don't tell me what to do."

Spike sighed. I knew he was worried, but I could take care of myself.

"Don't let your dad touch Black Hell, Noah. Don't put our gang in danger."

I looked at Spike, seeing his worry. This conversation pissed me off. I didn't like him talking about my dad. So I just walked deeper into the bar. Black Hell's got a bar business, but really, this place is our headquarters.

I'd been living here for months, and I'd known Black Hell since high school. And of course, my dad didn't want me getting involved with any motorcycle gangs, but everyone's got a life to live, and I chose to live mine with Black Hell.

The girl sat stiffly on the couch, her eyes on me. Her gaze screamed that she couldn't stand being here. That look just made me want her to suffer this torture a little longer.

I went to my room. My room, the wildest place I had. Sherly followed me in. She hugged me, then kissed me passionately. Her big chest grabbed my attention. I touched it, adding a little pressure. Shirley moaned. I pulled her to the bed. She sat there while I stayed standing. She expertly pulled down my pants. Shirley knew exactly what to do to get me off. Her mouth worked wonders. My hand held her tied-up hair.

I groaned. Sherly’s blow job felt insane.

"Oh, fuck!"

It only took a few seconds for me to cum in Shirley’s mouth. I quickly fixed my pants. Shirley looked at me, cum smeared around her mouth. She smiled while I sat beside her.

"What's up with that girl? She doesn't seem like the type you'd bring here, Noah."

I was quiet for a moment. I didn't even understand why I brought her. At the time, I was cruising with the Black Hell members, and my eyes caught her going into that house that had always been empty. Her gaze seemed to invite me to stay.

"I just don't like the way she looks at me... like I'm dirt."

"Don't joke, Noah. She doesn't know anything about Black Hell. Let her live her life."

I sprawled out on the bed. I'd never been like this before.

"Don't tell me you're interested in her."

I smirked. "Just shut your mouth."

Sherly lay down. She tried to get on top of me, but I rolled to the left. I felt uneasy.

"My dad wants me to come for dinner. I have a little plan."

Sherly narrowed her eyes. "Plan? Are you going to take that girl with you?"

"That's the plan… perhaps.”

"Why not take me?"

"Are you kidding me? My dad would kick us out. I need to bring a normal woman home."

Shirley laughed at me. "A normal woman."

We stared at the ceiling. Yeah, it was complicated. My dad wasn't just anyone. I didn't want to be part of his world. I didn't want any involvement with him, but still, I was his son. I just tried to show him some respect.

Casey POV

I saw a stack of newspapers next to where I was sitting. After dropping me off here, the woman named Sherly followed Noah into a room. Were they dating? But Sherly looks older than Noah. I picked up a newspaper. I looked at what was written there. Fear and boredom were taking over, so I had to find a way to chase them off.

"Peter Adam?" I mumbled.

I was reading an article about the Mayor of Woods Town. The name sounded familiar. Right as I was reading it, Noah came out of the room. He looked at me. His steps suddenly quickened towards me. He snatched the newspaper I was reading. It hit me then, the guy in the newspaper looked just like Noah.

"You're the mayor's son?"

"None of your business."

Noah sat beside me. He lit a cigarette. I didn't understand why I was here. But it was true, I'd almost forgotten about Anthony, replaced by fear and curiosity.

"What are we going to do?" I asked. "I mean. You said you'd help me with my problem."

"Your problem? You're just heartbroken. Not a serious issue. You just need to get revenge."

"How?"

Noah took a drag from his cigarette. He was handsome, but the vibe he gave off made me scared.

"Send him the same kind of video he made with that other woman."

"I have to hook up with a stranger just to get revenge?" This was a crazy idea. "No way."

"Then just deal with it and accept the fact that you're not more interesting than your boyfriend's side chick."

What the hell was that?! I wanted to get even, but I didn't want to do something insane. I grew even more agitated. My phone rang again. I looked at the screen. My mom was calling me. This was bad. She couldn't know I was with Noah, or she'd kill me.

"Can I go into your room?" I blurted out.

Noah didn't answer, but I had to answer my mom's call immediately. I rushed to that room. Sherly had just come out. I saw white, liquid-like stains on her clothes. I frowned in confusion. I let her go while I picked up the phone.

"Hey, Mom. What's up?"

"Honey, I can't come home on time. I have some things to take care of. If you want something to eat, just heat it up in the microwave. Get home soon and lock the door, okay?"

I sighed. My mom wasn't home, apparently.

"Okay, Mom. Don't worry. I'll do that."

"Where are you right now?"

"Me?" I was startled. Why was she asking? Did she know I was doing something wrong?

"Oh, I'm at campus. I'll be home soon, Mom."

"Okay, Honey. Enjoy your classes. Love you."

"Love you, Mom."

I hung up, sighing in relief that nothing bad happened. When I turned around, Noah was already beside me. He pulled my hand to the bed. Immediately, he threw me down. I was shocked. He pinned me. His eyes stared at me. This was too close. I couldn't think of anything except Noah right in front of me.

"Let's do it," Noah said.

"W-what? What are we going to do? Don't joke around."

"I'm not joking."

Noah touched my cheek. I shivered. His hand felt warm. I struggled, but it was useless.

"What are you doing, Noah?!"

Casey POV

Noah's stare just froze me. I'd never been with a guy besides Anthony, and I'm so old-school. Like, I'd make out with Anthony, but I'd always make sure I stayed a virgin.

"Your face is all red, Swan. Has your boyfriend never treated you like this?"

"Stop messing with me! What do you even want?!"

"You wanna get revenge, right?"

"I never said I would."

"So, you're just gonna let your boyfriend have a blast while you're miserable?"

Noah's hand suddenly slid under my shirt. He rubbed my stomach. I gasped, totally on instinct. I had no idea why I was reacting like that.

Noah grinned, looking all smug as he watched me.

"You feel it."

"Shut up. You bastard."

"Indeed, but don't deny you're kinda turned on by my touch."

"Let me go. I'm leaving."

"Nah, nah. You already decided to come with me. You can't just bail before finishing things with me."

"What do you mean? I didn't make any deal with you. I came with you because…"

"Because you were too embarrassed to look pathetic in front of all the college kids, right? I know you were using me. So now it's my turn to use you."

"What?"

Noah pulled out his phone. Then he took a picture of us.

"What are you doing?"

"This is a weapon."

"Huh?"

Noah looked at me, smiling. His clear eyes were kind of captivating, but I tried not to get sucked into the situation. No luck, though. Noah's hand was still on my stomach, starting to move up to my chest.

"Don't touch me!"

Noah's lips got close to mine. My body instantly shivered. He recorded us, then he kissed me, moving his lips a little wildly. Just a few seconds, then he let go. He also pulled his hand away from me and got up.

Noah flopped down next to me, staring at his phone, or rather, watching the video.

"You're so hot, Swan. I like it."

"My name is Casey. And don't harass me like that again!"

"Casey? Oh... I'm not harassing you. I'm helping you. I can send you this video if you want. That way you can get back at your boyfriend."

"I don't need that video. I should go!"

I quickly bolted out of the room, but as I stepped out, James showed up. He looked so rushed.

"Go, Noah. The cops are here. Looks like it's your dad's orders!"

Noah got up. He pocketed his phone. Then he grabbed his jacket.

"How many are here?" Noah asked as he walked out.

"There are two police cars. Sherly's distracting them right now. You should go, Noah. Don't let them see you here or we're screwed."

I had no clue what was happening or why Noah's dad would call the cops, but they definitely looked tense. That meant things were not good.

James and Noah looked at me. It made me confused and totally freaked out.

"She can't be seen here either, Noah," James said.

Noah rubbed his face. He was panicking. I started to get scared about the whole situation. His hand instantly grabbed mine.

"I'm taking her with me," Noah said.

Noah pulled me out and led me into a dark corridor. This wasn't the area we came through earlier, this was a back way.

"Where are we going?" I asked.

Noah didn't answer. His steps were quick. I heard a loud noise from the bar area. Some stuff fell.

"Don't look back!" Noah warned me.

We got out through the back door. This area was totally quiet. Noah sneaked past the side of the building. I saw his bike, which was parked out front earlier, but now it was on the side of the building.

"Stay here."

Noah immediately got on his bike. He waved quickly, signaling that I needed to get on right away. So I did. Noah started the engine. We peeled out of there. As we passed the front of the building, I saw two cop cars out front and a few people in police uniforms seemed to be searching the place.

I was terrified. Cops? I'd never been in trouble with them my entire life. What had Noah done? Why were the police looking for him?

Noah was riding the bike so fast. It freaked me out. I didn't dare open my eyes wide. When we rounded a corner, Noah's hand grabbed mine and made me hug him.

"You're gonna fly off if you don't hold onto me."

I couldn't argue. I was seriously terrified. I hugged Noah tight, letting him take me wherever.

After a bit, the bike finally stopped. I dared to open my eyes. I saw a super luxurious house. The yard was huge, and there were some bodyguards guarding the place.

"Get off," Noah ordered me.

I immediately got off Noah's bike. What was wrong with me today? After years of living a boring life, today was just completely random. Suddenly I was in a biker gang hideout, then running from the police, and now I was at a fancy house.

Noah got off his bike too. Then he grabbed my hand. I was surprised why he kept holding my hand.

"Let's go inside."

When Noah was about to walk, I pulled him back.

"Wait, wait, wait. Why are we here? And whose house is this?"

"My dad."

"What? Are you crazy? Why are we going to your dad's house?"

Noah just smiled. He wouldn't explain anything to me, then still led me into this luxurious house. I was amazed by this place. Where I used to live, I never imagined I'd get to step into a house this fancy.

"Noah, I just wanna go home."

"You're not going anywhere. I'll help you by giving you that video, but you also have to do what I ask."

"I didn't say I'd agree to anything."

"We're already here. You don't have a choice."

"Hey, hey, Noah!"

As we walked in, a woman, looking super hot and elegant, came up to us. She smiled at Noah.

"I'm glad you're back. You must be here for dinner with your dad, Noah," the woman greeted him.

"Don't get in my way, Bitch."

I was shocked by Noah's attitude. Why was he so rude to that beautiful woman?

"Where's my dad? I need to see him."

"He's busy. Some biker gangs are causing trouble in this town. He's doing some things to sort them out."

Noah's jaw tightened. He did not like what that woman said. Instantly, Noah let go of my hand, went up to the woman, and grabbed her arm roughly.

"Tell my dad I wanna see him right now or he's gonna regret it."

"Why are you so mad when I mention biker gangs? Are you involved with them or... "

"Hey, Mistress! I'll rip your mouth off if you get involved. This is my business with my dad. I wanna see him now or I'll... "

"Noah!"

From the direction of the door, a man's voice echoed, loud and firm. I turned. He was the guy from the newspaper article. That meant he was Peter Adam, Noah's dad. He was the mayor of Wood Town. Oh, my god.

Mayor Adam walked with confident strides. His vibe gave me chills. Now I got why I was so scared of Noah, his dad gave off the same vibe.

SLAP!

Suddenly, he slapped Noah. I was shocked. The sexy woman was too.

"You've embarrassed me! Why are you still hanging out with those thugs! You know I have to protect this town, but you're getting involved with them instead!"

Casey POV

My jaw dropped, but I quickly snapped it shut with my hand. This is insane. The annoying guy I'm most scared of is being treated like this. I didn't dare say anything. The situation was so awkward, but also tense. I never thought someone would dare slap this rebellious, fearless-looking guy, but his dad's expression was even scarier.

"What the hell, Dad!"

I saw genuine fury from Noah. What should I do? Should I just bail and let them sort their stuff out? Why did I get dragged into a situation I don't even understand? I really wanted to run.

Mayor Peter Adam's gaze was sharp and felt aggressive. He glanced at me for a second, and I felt like a helpless duck, ready to be devoured.

"I heard reports about a riot in the city center. It involved a motorcycle gang. You must be involved!" The Mayor's voice boomed.

"How many times do I have to tell you I have nothing to do with them, Dad. I go to college every day. I only know one or two guys from Black Hell. That doesn't mean I'm involved with them. I'm not stupid. I have to protect your reputation, right? I came because I wanted to introduce you to someone."

Noah pulled me forward, putting me face-to-face with Peter Adam. All I could hear was my heart pounding. I'm just an introverted girl who knows nothing, and now I have to meet a mayor. What the hell is with my life?

"She's Casey Turner, my girlfriend. We met on campus, and we're now seeing each other. She comes from a good family. You can check it yourself."

My eyes widened in confusion at the ridiculous story Noah was spewing. Girlfriend? Oh, my god. This is a fucking joke. I would never date a delinquent like Noah, especially not the Mayor's son.

Mr. Peter Adam stared at me stiffly, full of unspoken accusations, but it was more intimidating than anything.

"You're dating my son?" Mr. Peter Adam asked me, his voice sending shivers down my spine.

What should I say? I didn't want to lie, but if I said no, I'd definitely get in trouble with Noah.

"Um, yeah. I'm Noah's girlfriend. I just moved to this town, and Noah pursued me. So, no harm in trying to start a relationship in a new place."

What's wrong with me? Why am I so good at lying? I glanced at Noah. He was secretly smiling. I wanted an explanation for all of this. I didn't want to get dragged into his problems with his dad.

"I'll make sure you're not lying, Noah. Ken will investigate this. Don't lie to me, or I'll act. Things have been unstable in Wood Town lately. If you're involved, I won't hesitate to take more extreme measures. Don't test my patience. I'll make sure someone's watching you."

Noah was so calm, even though the threat didn't sound fun at all. Watched? But how could he be connected to a biker gang?

"Honey." The beautiful woman next to Mr. Peter Adam hooked her arm through his. "Don't be angry. You should be happy your son came to visit and brought his beautiful girlfriend. How about we ask them to join us for dinner here? I'll ask the chef to make something special for them."

Who was this woman? Why was she calling Mr. Peter Adam "Honey"? Was she his wife? But Noah clearly showed hatred towards her.

Mr. Peter Adam gave Noah a sharp look. "You hear that? Have dinner here. I'll ask your girlfriend a few things."

I hoped Noah would refuse. I didn't want to lie any further. If this got exposed, I'd be dead. Please, Noah. Just say no.

"Okay. I'm so hungry. After that, I have to go home. She has a curfew she needs to follow."

I was disappointed, hoping this was a joke, but Noah was serious. We were stuck here, not leaving until after dinner.

***

While waiting for dinner to be prepared in the dining room, Noah led me into a room. He closed the door, making sure no one could get in. Immediately, I burst out with a loud protest about Noah's impulsive behavior.

"Why did you trap me?!" I shrieked. I don't know where I got this courage. I couldn't stand not grilling Noah.

"Chill, Girl. We have a deal."

"I never said I agreed to any deal! Why did you have to lie to your dad? I mean... Why do I have to be involved in this lie?!"

"I'm helping you get revenge."

"I don't need your fucking help, Noah! I should go. Take me home now."

Wood Town is a quiet town? It's fucking bullshit. I've only been living in this town for a few days, and all I'm getting is trouble, not peace. I don't want to be involved in anything. I just want a normal life like everyone else. And Noah's planning some crazy idea that's gonna put me on a rollercoaster. I feel like I lose all morality whenever I'm near Noah. My mom's right, I shouldn't be anywhere near a delinquent.

Noah just smiled. He completely ignored my frustration. He didn't have an ounce of empathy for me. I had to get home before dinner, or my mom would be super worried. And she definitely couldn't know I was with Noah. She'd already seen him with his gang.

I tried to get out of the room, but he pulled me back, trying to get closer, making me flinch. His gaze was intense and sharp. I backed away, trying to avoid him, but my back hit the wall so that I couldn't run anywhere.

"Noah, what are you doing?" My voice trembled slightly.

Noah didn't answer. Instead, he just stared at me even deeper, as if looking for an opportunity. He trapped me. One hand touched the wall near my head, while his other hand traced my arm, moving to my waist, pulling me into a tight embrace.

"Nothing's free in this world, Miss. I already saved you. You should be thanking me. Not getting all mad." His low voice was dominating. "You got on my bike, right?"

"You offered me!"

"You could've said no."

I couldn't argue. I'm terrible at communicating. My chest heaved with my pounding heart.

"You're not going anywhere, girl. My dad sees you as my girlfriend. He's gonna be watching us."

"What the hell… "

"Shhh, don't curse. I told my dad you're a good girl. Don't blow it too early. I'll give you our kiss video later. You can use it to get back at your ex."

My body was locked, even though I tried to struggle. The pressure Noah put on me was too much to bear. His strength was immense. I tried to move my hands, but he quickly seized them. His face was right in front of mine. No, I didn't want to kiss him again.

"Let me go, Noah!"

"Nope." Noah refused flatly. He had that distinct cigarette smell. "We gotta get everything sorted today."

"Don't involve me."

"But you're already involved. There's no turning back."

"You're a jerk, Noah."

Noah chuckled, but his voice was muffled. He made sure our conversation couldn't be heard from outside. He was happy seeing me suffer. It was infuriating. I wanted to get out of here.

"You know what. Your lips are so tempting. Full, red, and wet. Always inviting me to taste them."

"Don't joke around!"

"I don't."

Without waiting for my permission, he landed his lips on mine. No. I didn't want this to happen again. This wasn't a gentle kiss, full of passion or anything. This was a cold, dominating, forced kiss. His lips pressed hard, without any understanding, demanding that this was truly his.

I froze, helpless. Disgust spread through me. I tried to pull away, but Noah's free hand moved, holding me, pressing harder, igniting anger and fear. But at the same time, I felt shivers down my spine. Something I'd never felt before, even when I kissed Anthony. A sensation I only got from my fear of Noah.

After a few seconds, Noah pulled back.

His gaze was still sharp on me. He waited for my reaction.

"How is it? You like it?" he said with a smirk.
