Then quickly–quietly–he spoke to her again.

“What–baby, what did they do to you?” His voice broke and Madison clutched the blanket beneath her until her knuckles felt like they would split. He must have seen how swollen and tornshe was down there. The shame hit her hard and she let out another sob.

“Fuck her already, or let me do it!” Some strange man’s voice yelled out as laughter roared around them.

Taking a deep breath, Kade positioned himself behind her. He was still clothed from the waist down and made a show of taking off his belt and undoing his pants. His eyes scanned the bar to find Camille gone and Jagger in a heated argument with Sadie as she pointed to the stage. The woman who had led Madison into the building earlier was currently being choked out by Jagger behind the bar mid-argument as the light left her eyes and Kade frantically looked around to see if anyone else saw what was happening behind them. The gang and the girls were all pushed to the front of the stage, several yards away from Sadie at the bar–the new girl forgotten when Madison was on display for them.

Kade knew it had to be time. Where the fuck were the Rebels?

He wasn’t even hard in the slightest and there was no way he’d be able to fuck her. His mind was in a panic because if they saw him, they’d send someone else up there to continue their little show and he couldn’t let that happen. He palmed himself through his pants and pretended to be crazy for it. He needed to get hard or they were fucked.

“You’re going to take this cock like the obedient slut you are,” he ground out between gritted teeth. Another slap to her ass. “Tell me you want this cock or I’ll break your fucking arm!”

Madison was shaking so bad and Kade’s stomach threatened to betray him as bile rose in his throat. He couldn’t do this. Fuck. Fuck.Fuck–

“You call this a show?” Sadie’s confident voice yelled over the noise.

Kade’s head snapped to see Sadie making her way onto the stage, her body swaying suggestively to the music ofCloserbyNine Inch Nails as it poured out of the speakers suddenly. All the attention of the gang was on her as she slowly started to undress by the pole beside them.

“I’m better than that trash. Anyone can just lie there,” she seethed. “Don’t ya’ll wanna see what I can do?”

Mont rushed over, pushing past a few of his men to be directly in front of Sadie as she dropped her dress down to her ankles, leaving her in just a white lace thong.

“Shit, girl!” He laughed, his surprise at this turn of events clear through his voice. “Fuck, yeah, we wanna see! Don’t we, boys?”

The men cheered and Kade took his chance, hauling Madison onto her feet, simultaneously grabbing her by the back of the neck.

“Get me a fucking drink!” He snarled for the benefit of those who were still in earshot. Kade then proceeded to push her in the direction of the stage where he wouldn’t be noticed as Sadie directed their attention to her performance. He didn’t pause for anything. His pants were still open, her naked, and he led them off the stage and moved her towards the bar where Jagger was frantically gesturing for them to come quicker.

Kade looked back over his shoulder as the men shouted obscenities while Sadie swung herself around the pole for them, gyrating to the music, careful to keep her mask in place while her hair tossed over her shoulder.

“Get her in the fucking office,” Jagger told him when he was close enough.

Madison barely registered what was happening, her mind trying to catch up as her legs began to give out.

“Where are they?” Kade asked as he slung Madison’s arm over his neck when she started to lose her footing, her strength leaving her as she threatened to collapse.

“They’re in position. Get in the fucking room and don’t come out until I come for you.”

Kade nodded and rushed Madison into the office, kicking the door closed behind him with his boot. He gently set her down on the chair behind the desk before rushing back to the door to lock it and running back to the desk to find the key hidden in the top drawer.

Rushing to the locked room in the back, he unlocked it and shoved the key in his pocket as he picked Madison up bridal-style and moved her into the small room. He knelt down, balancing her legs on his lap as she clung to him and grabbed the gun from the mop bucket that he knew was hidden there. He turned the bucket over to make a seat for her just as the gunshots rang out over the music in the bar, as the bar erupted in screams.

“Oh, my god,” Madison gasped, ripping the mask from her face as Kade placed her down gently. “The girls! Kade, we can’t leave the–”

“Gremlin and Scales have been sneaking them out since we got on stage. That was always part of the plan, to get them out one by one while they weren’t looking.”

“What?” The mask hit the floor with a softclack.

“They’re going to be okay,” Kade soothed as he pushed her back down onto the bucket when she tried to get back up. He tossed his mask to join hers on the floor. “You almost collapsed 2 minutes ago, so you can just sit the fuck down.”

“Go!Go!” Jagger’s voice screamed through the hysteria outside of the office. A moment later, he heard the office door knob struggle to open before it swung open and slammed shut before the lock was latched. He stood before Madison, shielding her with his body before he heard the unmistakable sound of a girl crying.

Heart-wrenching sobs met them as he opened the door into the office to find Sadie pressed against the door, the gun inher hand clutched to her naked chest while a ring of keys was dangling from the other.

Madison suddenly pushed Kade out of the way and ran to Sadie, the girls holding each other closely as they cried against one another. The girls kept asking if the other was okay and Kade gently took the gun and keys from Sadie before moving both the girls back to the other room.

“Stay here, I’m going back out to help Jag,” Kade said in a rush as he went to close the door.
