I was fucking drugged.

What the hell happened in that room?

And why?

I need answers, and I need them now.

My head spins. I don’t even notice Sofia twist around in my lap to face me.

“Jax.”

I flinch as she shouts trying to get through to me.

Squeezing my eyes shut, adrenaline pumps in my veins with a need for blood.

“Back with me, baby. We need to talk about this before you do anything.”

Her sweet voice drags me back to reality, away from envisioning me ripping these guy’s heads from their shoulders.

“Where did you get the footage?” I ask, tapping my fingers on the arm of the chair.

“Enzo. Lara got his number.”

She averts her gaze and I pull her chin back to face me. She’s holding back.

“The rest. What made you look into this?”

She takes a shaky breath.

“I-I had a call from Anna. It was really weird. She knew the name of the girl that you, umm.”

Fuck.

The pain on her face is still there. Even knowing I was drugged, I still feel disgusting.

Unworthy.

Tears sting in my eyes.

I’ll never be able to remember. I will have to live with this forever. It is always in the back of my mind.

“I never told her anything, Jax. It got me thinking, maybe there is more to it. It never sat right with me. I never believed you would willingly do this to us. I always knew how much you loved us. This proves it.”

A small smile creeps up on her lips, but I don’t understand why. And, what the hell does Anna have to do with this?

Would she really be involved in hurting Sofia? Is she a threat to my family?

“Why do you seem happy about this?”

She shuffles on my lap and loops her arms around my neck.

“Because it proves what I knew all along. You didn’t do it, Jax.”

I rest my head against her chest. Why do I still feel so shitty about it?

“I take it there is no CCTV in the hotel room?” I ask.

“No, Jax. But, now we have a lead. We can get to the bottom of it, if that will help you?”
