Jack

Spider web

look at Bess she is frozen in fear standing next to the kitchen counter she cannot stop shaking “

who the heck are you i know you are not cops “ i ask in anger moving forward towards the old man

as I move forward the guy at the back pulls out his g*n and c***s it on hearing it click I freeze I

turn around slowly “look we are all civilized hear there is no need for violence man ” I plead with

the guy he makes a glean I look at the old white guy and he says “come on I thought you are a

fighter go ahead punch me I promise that he won’t shoot you” the guy behind me stops pointing

at me and point at Bess she screams a little bit in fear I lift my hand up in a sign of surrender “

come on man don’t do this what have I done to you “ I plead the old man moves forward

towards me “ what have you done to me let’s see should I start with the fact that you beat up my

nephew almost to death or the fact that my son is in the hospital with a head injury and a concussion

or the fact that now you have made the cops have reasons to be visiting my club and I cannot

conduct business anymore over there .tell me boy what have you done to me “I swallow a gulp of

hot air “ do you know who the f**k I am “ the man gestures pointing at himself. “I am Warlock “ I

am shocked this is Warlock he is the biggest bad a*s in this town he runs everything from organized

crime nothing happened in this town that he does not know he gives all the gungs the tuffs that

they are going to be doing their operations all the coke and other drugs that my g**g pushes comes

from him and he is in my f*****g kitchen looking mad .the fact that he decided to come himself only

means I am dead and so is Bess Stella and Kate damn we really messed up last night .look at me

boy you are now mine “ and if Andrew dies so do you and by the way you friend Markus is okay

so tell me how do you think I am going to recover my loss” he say that as he passes by me and

heads to the sitting room he walks majestically “ Buch with me I am tired of standing up “ the guy

behind me waves his g*n instructing us to follow Warlock i hesitate for a second I want to know is

my Bess is okay Bess walks towards me slowly I hold her hand she puts her head on my shoulder

and begins to sob “ babe I am scared “ “it will be okay I promise you “I try to comfort her I am so

scarred but I can’t show her that I know am her first and last line of defense if I act scared she is

going to freak out so I walk towards the sitting room holding Bess “sit you a*s down Warlock

commands pointing at the sofa ” I sit holding Bess we sit slowly she puts her hand s around my

waist and hold me tight pushing her breasts to my shoulder . “so tell me what I want to know you

two are going to pay for the loss that I have made and am continuing to make .Bess pleads “how can

we pay we don’t have that much money” “we can gather around twenty thousand dollars if we sell

the car and my bike may be twenty eight thousand dollars “ I jump in in a desperate move to get

us out of trouble Warlock looks at his watch “ you two crowns do you think I have made a loos of

twenty eight thousand Buch this guys are funny “ he goes into his pocket and pulls out a tube

its make of wood and the top and bottom of it its coated with gold he pulls the top part of it and

pulls out a cigar he places it in his mouth gets into his pocket and gets I a cutter he cuts the front

and the back part of the cigar “damn is there no lighter in this house” Bess with her hand shaking

points at the kitchen “in the kitchen “ she manages to speak up .”so should I go and find it .”Warlock

looks at us in a serious face Bess tries to make herself small by pushing her self behind me “go get it” she stands up slowly and walks to the kitchen shaking and butch follows her and once she is in

their butch points the g*n at her “give it to me “ he tells Bess I want to stand and beat up this guy

but there is no way I can fight a guy with a g*n I know from experience that bullets hurt more than

punches I hold the couch on my seat with all the strength I got “ we are hungry make us some

eggs and bacon “ Buch commands Bess he then smiles as he turns around and faces us .”I don’t

want to hear a sound from the kitchen I want you to be a mouse “ he yells as he comes back to

where Bess was sited Warlock is still giving me a cold look his face having lost all emotions Buch

slides him the lighter still looking at me he lights his cigar “ I still don’t have an answer “he

signals Buch with his eyes Buch looks at me he holds me by the collar of my t-shirt and he begins to

stand up holding me I can see the veins pop out of this face I tell myself that this is it when we are

both standing he hits me with the bottom of his g*n a sharp pain goes runs through my skull as I

fall on the couch Buch puts the g*n in the back of his trousers he goes ahead to punch me I could

do nothing but to receive the punishment I try to cover my face but every time I do that he hit me

on my side and since the metal rod that I was hit with last night my ribs were hurting like hell he

tries to remove my hand from my hand and by accident he tears my t-shirt sleeve that’s when

MR. Warlock saw my tattoo “ stop “Warlock instructs Buch we both turn towards him don’t hit

him again and just for his own amusement he hits me one more time on the face then lifts me and

helps me sit up right my face is all misshapen my left eye is swollen I can’t see through it I have

bruises on my chic my lip is cracked and is swollen and bleeding in short I look my face had a head on

collision with a train I lift my hand slowly to hold the part of my head that Buch hit me with a g*n

every part of my body hurts I check my hand and I am also bleeding from the back of my head “ you

are a jaguar ? why did you not say so “Warlock asks now that makes things easier from today you

are mine and since you like a mark I think I have a perfect mark to remind you give me your hand

Buch stands up and heads to the kitchen he asks Bess if the tea is ready he comes with a cup of

coffee Warlock hold my hand just as he does so he asks me” again what have I said” I gather all my

strength to reply I swear even my jaw had gone on strike “ I work for you now “ “good boy “he part

me on the back he picks the cutter and putts my small finger in the middle of it “you look here

Bess walks in from the kitchen I face her she puts her hand over her mouth to stop herself from

screaming at once I feel a sharp pain shoot through my hand when I look at my hand Buch holds it

and deeps it in the cup of hot coffee for a all I see is darkness .

BESS

As I am coming from the kitchen I cannot believe what I am seeing jack is bleeding all over his face

my heart starts to beat hard you could almost see it from the outside .in me I know I am to be

blamed I am the one who took the bottle and hit the Andrew Warlocks son and now my man is

paying for my mistakes I want to scream stop it but my voice cannot come out of my mouth I just

watch helplessly Warlock press the cuter and jacks eyes glow big at once Buch puts his hand in the

cup of hot coffee and jack passes out Buch lets go of jacks hand and the coffee cup falls on the table

at once I hear a woman scream its Stella she comes down the stairs she is furious as she tries to hit

bus Buch holds her hand midair and slaps her so hard that she also passes out and she falls on the

ground Warlock instructs Buch to stop he stands up I gather all my strength and run to check on Stella she is out cold I then move to jack he is also out cold but has finger is not bleeding when

they put his hand in the coffee it stopped the bleeding I cannot stop my tears from flowing down

my face “come down “ I look up at MR. Warlock he instructing Kate to come down the stairs “ do you

want to fight Buch too “Kate shakes her head “I can’t hear you ” Warlock claims “no” Kate replies go

over there and sit she comes over to where I am she is so scare that she cannot make any sounds she

just stare at Buch in shock did you call the cops Warlock asks “she nods her head say yes okay

Warlock f aces me and say “ listen carefully when sleeping beauty wakes up tell him I want to see all

the four of you tomorrow at my club and don’t make a point of telling the cops I was hear “ he walks

out of the house Buch follows him “ladies “ he acts as if he is removing an imaginary hurt from his

head and walks out smiling “jack” I scream out call nine one Kate moves quickly towards Stella

and Stella gets up “did I get him .”looking at Kate “ what happened “ Stella enquires “no” dear

don’t ever do that ever again “Kate replies “jack is he okay “Stella enquires I scream out “jack

babe wake up “ I lift his head and place it on my chest “that i***t cut my finger “jacks speaks in a

weak tone just then we hear sirens the cops get to our house they are followed by an ambulance

the medics come and take jack on the stretcher and places him on the ambulance and they start to

administer first aid to him the another medics comes and asks if we are okay we say we are and ask

him to check on Stella he gets a small touch and looks in Stella eyes “she is okay she does not

have a concussion” the medic says the cops come following us to the ambulance where jack is

the medics are doing their best to clean the wounds what happened “someone broke in our

house “ I say do you know who just before I say yes jack says no “no “I follow jacks answer the

cop asks did you at least see him I look at jack who is try to sit up he shakes his head I just answer

I did not see them well the cop inscribes something on his note book facing jack do you have

any one that you know could do this to you jack shakes his head “okay were you at the club

immersion last night “ jack nods his head “yes” I speak out “two people were injured badly there

so did you see what happened “ the cop inquires “ no I saw the fight then we left “ I replies so

you were not involved “we were the guy was trying to take advantage of me and a guy came to

my aid “ I plead my case okay the officer writes something in his note book the medics on the

ambulance gesture to the cops and the officer closes his book and says that he will come by the

hospital and question us a little bit more .i get into the ambulance Stella and Kate are left behind we

arrive at the hospital and the doctors come to meet us at the entrance they put jack on a

stretcher they push it to ward then one of the doctors cuts open his shirt man I can’t help myself

those abs always leave me breathless and the curve that disappear in his pants seem like they are

point to a better place “we need to take an x ray do you have your insurance card “the doctor asks

me that pulls me from my trans not here I have it at home go to the front office and feel the forms

required while we take care of him “mam he will be okay “I walk to the front office I talk to the

nurse there and she hands me a clip board with the forms I look for an empty sit as I start to feel

it out

JACK

I come out of the x-ray room and all the doctor comes holding the x ray results I watch him do his

work he look at me “jack you have one fractured jaw the good news is that your face is okay

on your head there are no fractures . we have to keep you here for a couple of days as we observe

you “ I nod acceptingly just the David walks through the door with Bess the doctor walks out “

man who did this to you I am going to make them wish that they were never born “Bess looks at me

and I see tears form at the bottom of her eyes I lift my hand gesturing her to come over she sits

on my bed David pulls a chair and sits next to us “babe I will be fine it’s just the top side of my

finger I will be okay ” Warlock said that tomorrow night that we should meet him at his club “Warlock!

Dude what did you get yourself into that is one guy I cannot beat up for you “ David says in shock

“what did you do “ Bess tells David the story of last night by the end of it David mouth is wide

open “ man I don’t think this one we are going to talk our way out of” David says “ I can come along

with you if you want to .you know am your dude ride or die “ I look at him and with the little

strength I have i tell him no the doctor comes over and asks them to leave he starts to bandage my

ribs I want to scream so bad but the pain on my jaw is stopping me so i bite the other side of my lip

that is not swollen after he is done he gives me a jab say that it’s supposed to take the pain away as

the pain goes away I fall asleep . when I wake up I find out that the doctor has treated my hand its

now bandaged properly Bess is asleep on the chair where David had sat earlier Bess I call out now

my jaw did not hurt so much she opens her eyes what should I call a doctor I shake my head come

over she walks close to my bed I ask her to sit on my I squeeze myself to one end what do you want

.i know the doctor gave me something for the pain but it does not take my mind off the things that

happened today and that my small finger is one third gone do they serve beer here “ I ask jokingly “

she leans near me and whisper to my ear no they do not sell any of that hear but I get it what you

want and I got it right here where does it hurt she kisses my forehead no it’s not there she kiss

me on my right chic “no a little bit to the lift ”she kiss me on the left one “you just missed I don’t

know how but it hurts even more now “ I know she likes to tease me she finally gets to my lips

and I swear that was all that I needed in a few seconds I was having a hard on she slides her hand

down my stomach I feel as if she is counting my abs until she gets to it and she whispers in my ears

“ did you not tell Johnny that we are in hospital “ yeah we call my d**k Johnny I know it’s a little bit

weird but it’s our thing .”what are we going to do “ when I hear those words from Bess my d**k falls

down “I know you are scared you don’t need to be so strong with me what is your plan “ I look at her

and tell her I will handle it lets first see what he has in his mind .” she shakes her head I and falls

asleep on my chest and soon we both are fast asleep .
