"JAX, I DON'T KNOW WHAT you are talking about," I said, taking another step back.

"Your father killed my father, Drew Knight. My mother killed herself and my unborn sister a week later, sending me into foster care. I went to juvie multiple times, and I met our fathers' gang, The Ravans. I did everything for them so one day I can find you and make you pay," Jax explained, getting closer to me.

"How do you know that I know all of this?" I asked him, hesitantly.

"I put a device on your computer so I can see whatever you are looking at. You took a little longer than I thought you would to be honest," Jax answered, making my eyes widen.

"I'm sorry about your mother and your sister. I had no idea until the other day. Jax, I wish I could done something to prevent that from happening," I apologized.

Within a second, I was thrown against the wall with Jax pushing my shoulders against it. 

"Don't you dare talk about them! It was you and your father who killed them!" Jax exclaimed, tightening his grip.

I bit my lip in pain, but I wasn't going to show it to him.

"I already dealt with your father, and now all I have to do finish the Cades," Jax said, titling his head.

"What do you mean you dealt with my father?" I asked him, angrily.

"Do you really believe it was just a random jail fight? Sorry to inform you, but I organized that. He surprised me when he survived for how long he did. I thought he was going to die before he got into the hospital."

My eyes widen, and tears welled in my eyes. Jax killed my father. If he didn't organize the prison fight, my father would still be alive.

Before I knew what I was doing, I kicked him in the crouch. I, then, pushed him away from me.

"Wow! Looks like you got some fire in you after all," Jax said, crouching down.

"How could you do that?! He was my father!" I screamed at him before slapping him.

He lost his balance, and he fell on the floor. He looked up at me, and he shook his head.

"Just you wait. I got more in store especially for your precious Cade family. You will feel the pain I felt when I lost everything!" Jax said before sweeping me off my feet.

I fell on my back, and I hit my head against the hard wood. I groaned, and he stood over top of me. Then he grabbed me by my sweatshirt, and he slapped me, sending me back onto the floor. 

"If you would died that night, then I would still have my family! But because of you, I lost them forever!" Jax exclaimed before kicking me in the stomach.

I coughed, holding my stomach, as it throbbed in pain. Jax grabbed me by my throat, and he held me against the wall once more.

My lungs were on fire, and I needed oxygen. I clawed at his hands, trying to loosen his grip.

Then I remembered the pepper spray Brent gave me. I quickly grabbed it from my back pocket, and I sprayed Jax in the eyes. He yelled in pain, letting go of me. He was holding his eyes, trying to stop the burn.

I took in deep breaths, trying to refill my lungs. After two breaths, I ran to the door, and I threw it open. I ran down the hallway, and I heard Jax's footsteps behind me.

I ran to the front door, but I found it locked with five different locks. I quickly unlocked them, but I was too slow.

Jax grabbed me by my hair, and I yelped in pain. My hands went straight to my hair, and he pulled me into the dining room. Then he threw me, and I rolled across the table onto the floor.

My ankle throbbed, and I'm pretty sure I twisted it when I landed. Jax walked around the table, and he lifted me up with my sweatshirt one more time against the wall.

"I wonder what Brent would do if he saw what I was doing to you. That kid has been trying in to fight me since I came into your life, and I bet this would give him a good reason to try and fight me," Jax whispered in my ear, sending shivers down my spine.

"He would beat your ass within a second," I said, sending him a death glare.

At this, Jax laughed,"I highly doubt that. I have been in gang fights more than you can imagine."

"I wouldn't underestimate him," I said with narrowed eyes as I remembered my plan.

"But he left you all alone with me. He must not really love you if he just left you," Jax said, twirling my hair.

"Who said I came alone?" I asked him with a taunting smirk.

He looked at me with confusion until we heard something break in the kitchen. He looked at me then at the kitchen. He grabbed my upper arm, and he dragged me into the kitchen. I groaned in pain as I put pressure onto my ankle. The back door window was shattered, leaving glass all over the floor.

"What the hell?" Jax mumbled, looking at the glass. He walked a couple steps forward to examine the mess. I held onto the chair from keeping me from falling.

"You know, recordings are really great for evidence," I said, taking my phone out of my back pocket.

"You recorded our conversation?!" Jax asked me, fuming.

I nodded with a smile on my face."I didn't just record you. My brothers went to the sheriff, and I have been on the phone with  Gaberial as soon as I stepped into your house. He recorded every little bit of this conversation, and in five minutes, this whole house will be surrounded by cops."

"You bitch!" Jax said, walking towards me with his hand raised.

Before he could hit me, a hand grabbed him by the wrist and twisted it. I looked over to see Nick standing next to me, twisting his wrist.

"Get the hell away from her you asshole!" Nick exclaimed, standing in front of me. Jax scowled, holding his wrist to his chest.

I heard police sirens in the distant, and Nick hid me from Jax's death glare. Brent stood on the other side of Jax, trapping him.

"I should have known you would get in the way," Jax said, looking at Brent.

"We've been outside the whole time. I drove off to make it seem like I was leaving her with you. Then I met Nick outside the driveway, and we have been trying to get into this house. We would have been in here sooner, but the front door was bolted shut," Brent explained with no hesitation.

In a flash, Jax punched Brent straight into the jaw, and he almost fell to the floor. He caught himself before it was too late. Brent touched his jaw before looking at Jax. Nick tensed up, ready to get into a fight.

"Come on, I know you wanna hit me. I mean, look at her. Bruises are all over her body, and guess who did that? Me. Bring it on, Brent," Jax taunted, looking over at me. I know how angry Brent gets when it comes to me. I don't know if Nick and myself will be able to stop him if he does hit Jax.

"I'm not going to hit you. You will just get the satisfaction. Instead, you will be rotting in your cell alone for the rest of your life," Brent said before the doors busted open.

"Put your hands up, Jaxon Knight!" One of the fifty cops yelled.

Jax looked at me then at Brent before slowly putting his hands up. Two cops cuffed him while the rest of them kept their guns out.

"I will get you Campbell West! I will make you suffer, and when I'm done, you will be begging me to kill you! Do you hear me?!" Jax yelled as he was being dragged out the door.

"I need a medic!" A cop exclaimed into his walkie talkie.

Brent came over to me, and I laid my head on his chest, exhausted from today's events. A medic came rushing in, and he examined my ankle.

Brent and Nick carried me to the ambulance while the cops went through Jax's stuff. They set me down on the step as the medic examined my bruises, my stomach, and my ankle.

"Brent! Where's Campbell?!" I heard Gavin yell.

"She's right here!" He yelled back.

Within a few seconds, my other brothers were in front of me. Their eyes widen at the sight of me. Then they all hugged me, lightly.

"How bad are you hurt?" Micheal asked once they released me.

"She has a twisted ankle and bruises to the neck, stomach, and cheek. No concussion. You should be alright as long as you take care of that twisted ankle," the medic told us.

"I swear, I'll go kill him," Gaberial said, angrily.

"Calm down, I'm fine. I should have been more careful," I told him.

"Campbell, none of this is your fault," Gavin said, holding my hand.

"I know, but what happened to Jax was horrible. No kid should have to loose their entire family within that short period of time," I said, shaking my head.

"Kids?! Where are my kids?!" Mom yelled, making our eyes widen.

We are so going to get a mama bear lecture once they find out what happened.

Mom and Dad rushed to us, and Mom gave us each a kiss on the head. When she saw me, tears welled in her eyes.

"Can somebody explain what happened?" Dad asked, looking at my brothers.

And we did. We explain everything to them, not leaving a detail out.

"He also killed my father. He organized the fight. Undoubtedly, he knew a lot of people in that prison," I said as a tear rolled down my cheek.

"Oh, sweetie, I'm sorry. He's going to get what he deserves don't you worry," Mom said before kissing my head and wiping my tear away.

"Can we go home now? I'm ready to get back to normal and safe life," I asked, trying to put this nightmare to rest.

Dad nodded,"Of course."

Brent gave me a kiss on the cheek, and I wrapped my arms around his waist, hugging him.

Jax will never touch my family. Nobody will, and if they try, they have to get through me first.
