The upcoming chapter is a VERY difficult chapter.
It features on page sexual rape of a minor. It is brutal.
If needed, please skip this chapter or put the book down.
Your mental health matters to me.
I completely understand if you have to DNF due to the triggers.
Please note, this book is based on situations and circumstances I have lived through personally.
Thank you for taking the chance on reading Relentless Queen.
Chapter Thirteen
ALUXIS
When the Sorgetti’s arrived to pick me up today, I was expecting to see Carl and Claire. But upon walking outside, I noticed it was their sons who showed up instead. I was both confused and shocked. I bend down to grab my bag at the same time as one of the boys say,
“Hey. Are you Aluxis?” Standing up, not sure which boy asked.
“Yeah. Please call me Lux.”
“Lux. I like it. My name is Cole,” He smiles. I notice he has gauges in his ears.
“This is Conner,” he says, pointing his thumb to the left. I look over and see another pair of brown eyes, only his look lighter, like honey.
“That is Caleb.” He points over to the last brother. I turn to face him, locking eyes with two black orbs.
“Nice to meet you.” I respond as I shift my weight back and forth.
“Come on, let's go. We have a long drive ahead. You hungry?” Caleb asks with a smile.
“Uh, sure.” Responding with a smile of my own.
Climbing into the backseat with Cole, we pull out of the driveway and head towards the main road. I roll down the window, letting the cool breeze hit my face. It feels nice. I’m not sure how long we’ve been driving when Cole nudges me, waking me up.
“Ready to eat?” he smiles.
“Yeah, where are we?” Stepping out of the car, I look around, seeing a green and white building.
“Shelia’s diner. They have the best milkshakes and burgers in town.”
Walking into the blue and white diner, I follow the guys as they head over to a booth. We all get seated and order our food. I got a vanilla milkshake like Conner. Cole ordered a chocolate and Caleb ordered strawberry. We are finishing up our food when a cell rings. Conner takes out his phone, looks at the screen and then at me.
“I gotta take this.” Getting up, answering the phone, and walking outside.
After Caleb pays the bill, we head out, joining Conner at the car. We all climb back in, pulling out to get back on the road. I feel so full. Closing my eyes, I drift back off.
“Is she asleep?”
“Yeah, looks like it. She closed her eyes like twenty minutes ago and hasn’t moved.”
“Who called?”
“Hacker, he wants us to meet up with him.”
“Right now?”
