About this ebook
I'm Axle Santiago, aka Rage, aka President of the Wicked Warriors MC New York Chapter.
I rule with an iron fist and I don't think twice to swing my chain when the need arises. If it connects and splatters brains on the tar, chances are, the bastard got what he deserved. Things are changing and with it comes new challenges.
Our territory was invaded by MC Demon Riders vying to overthrow our rule. They overstepped boundaries and when their VP had a hand in me being locked up… they declared war.
When I'm released a year later, the time for retribution has come.
Slick and the bitch by his side who betrayed me is going to pay. Lilian Carter… the one who turned my soul dark and left it brooding in a dark cave is going to feel the wrath of Rage. I'm going to take my revenge on her body and use her like she did me. I won't be asking and no amount of begging or wishes are going to change my mind.
Lilian and her lover are about to learn that Axle Santiago never makes promises he doesn't keep. But even well laid out plans backfire. Something I learn during one magic midnight ride with her.
Please note: Although the blurb is in 1st person, the book is written in 3rd person.

Linzi Basset
“Isn’t it a universal truth that it’s our singular experiences and passion, for whatever thing or things, which molds us all into the individuals we become? Whether it's hidden in the depths of our soul or exposed for all to see?” Linzi Basset is a South African born animal rights supporter with a poet’s heart, and she is also a bestselling fiction writer of suspense filled romance erotica books; who as the latter, refuses to be bound to any one sub-genre. She prefers instead to stretch herself as a storyteller which has resulted in her researching and writing historical and even paranormal themed works. Her initial offering: Club Alpha Cove, a BDSM club suspense series released back in 2015, reached Amazon’s Bestseller list, and she has been on those lists ever since. Labelling her as prolific is a gross understatement as just a few short years later she has now been published forty-one times; a total which fails to take into account the three other published works of her alter ego: Isabel James who co-authors—nor does it include the five additional new works marked for imminent release. “I write from the inside out. My stories are both inside me and a part of me so it can be either pleasurable to release them or painful to carve them out. I live every moment of every story I write. So, if you're looking for spicy and suspenseful, I'm your girl... woman... writer... you know what I mean!" Linzi believes that by telling stories in her own voice, she can better share with her readers the essence of her being: her passionate nature; her motivations; and her wildest fantasies. She feels every touch as she writes, every kiss, every harsh word uttered, and this to her is the key to a never-ending love of writing. Ultimately, all books by Linzi Basset are about passion. To her, passion is the driving force of all emotion; whether it be lust, desire, hate, trust, or love. This is the underlying message contained in her books. Her advice: “Believe in the passions driving your desires; live them; enjoy them; and allow them to bring you happiness.” Follow Linzi everywhere: https://linktr.ee/LinziBasset

Dear Reader,
I’ve had so much fun writing Axle’s story. Those of you who are familiar with me, know this is my first MC romance but I’m sure it won’t be the last! Please note, there is a level of non con/dub con in one chapter of this book that might be a trigger to some readers.

Wicked Warriors MC New York Chapter Code
This is the code as written by Reaper, the founder of the Wicked Warriors New York Chapter, father of Rage, the current president. It is still enforced to this day, with some amendments made by the current Prez.
Never trust anyone, not even the family, unless proven.
Women and children are not to be abused.
Never talk down to the poor, and never suck up to the rich.
Protect the weak. Walk tall and stand proud.
Stick to your guns. Don't put up with disrespect.
Life is not a drill, and the code is not about a brand, it’s about the brotherhood and sisterhood.
Your word is your bond.
Now go forth and ride.
There are no specific guidelines for Wicked Warriors MC New York Chapter Club behavior but all Members and Prospects are expected to act in a manner that does not damage the Club name or reputation. These new guidelines came into force when the current Prez, Rage, was sworn in.
This includes but is not limited to:
No women or children will be hurt or killed, even during a time of war.
The senseless killing of Patched Members or Prospects are prohibited.
3. The shooting of other Bikers unless they shoot first.
4. The killing of Members or Prospects in other clubs that are allies or present no threat at the time.
Chapter One
Honesty is the best policy. If I lose mine honor, I lose myself.
— William Shakespeare.
One Year Ago. . .
WE’VE BEEN SET UP.
Axle’s growl was soaked with fury at the sight of the FBI agents swarming through the doors of the warehouse below. He’d earned the street cred, Rage, because his anger knew no bounds once aroused. Move, Gunther. We have to get the fuck out of here. I’m not spending the night in a goddamned prison cell.
Purpose fueled his steps as he ran towards the back of the building with Gunther, aka Preacher, aka the Vice President of the Wicked Warriors MC NY Chapter, close on his heels— escape at the forefront of his mind.
How the fuck are we gonna do that, Prez? They’ll be swarming the back door as well.
There’s a hidden door leading to the adjacent warehouse.
His voice was curt as he turned the corner and charged up the service stairs to the top story. Move your ass. We have to get to it before the assholes see us.
Axle Santiago was livid. The things he treasured above all traits were honesty and trust. One of his own men must’ve broken that tenuous thread since no one outside of his crew knew about this meeting. It was an unforgivable sin and would be dealt with ruthlessly.
The Wicked Warriors had always ruled New York City making tons of money selling drugs and whoring out pussy— had done so since Axle’s father started up the Chapter forty years earlier along with other founders of the Wicked Warriors. After his passing, Axle had unanimously been voted in as the Prez, and to honor their founder’s achievements, he’d continued in the same trend. It was easy since the Wicked Warrior NY Chapter, operated exclusive strip clubs and bars all over the city. It wasn’t the usual run of the mill clubs though since Axle was more than the Chapter’s president; he was also a sly businessman first and foremost. He pushed the right market and targeted wealthy businessmen, politicians, and celebrities. The strip clubs catered to members only which offered the confidentiality they sought. Of course, that came at a price to the men looking for cheap thrills which had turned whoring WW pussy into huge financial gain which contributed to the six figure earnings to the bank every month.
Axle wasn’t shy to pay for results and the club whores were only too eager to please him by pushing drugs to their customers for bonuses. It was a win-win scenario but it was wrought with setbacks. The main one being that many of them gave in to the lure of drugs at their disposal and became addicted. Once they did, they lost the perks and extra money, reducing them back to a common whore selling pussy.
The authorities didn’t bother them by raiding the strip clubs, mainly because they were underground and well-guarded. No one entered without being properly vetted beforehand and since the locations were only known to club members, they were relatively safe. The properties above ground were owned and registered legally to a shipping container company Axle owned; ASWW Incorporated, which stood for Axle Santiago Wicked Warriors. The profits he made as one of the top transnational logistic and shipping companies had been a good start— one that had grown to such an extent over the past ten years since he’d taken over that it topped the Chapter’s combined drug and sex trade.
It was part of his long term plan to turn the Chapter toward more legitimate businesses, which had been four years in the making. It hadn’t been easy at first to change the thought process of men for whom being an outlaw Chapter had been a way of life. There were still those who struggled to adapt and continued to stumble on the thin line of decency and a fresh legal way of life. The constant vying for the Wicked Warrior territory didn’t make the transition any easier, especially since there had been an increase in bloodshed since the Demon Riders had appeared on the scene. They were now fighting a war that continued to rage endlessly.
It’s through here,
Axle said as he stopped at a door of a stationery storage room. He peeked down the side hallway before he checked the door. Fucking door is locked.
Jesus, Rage! What now? I can hear them searching the hallways one floor down.
You’ve got a fucking iron. Pump the first dickface that shows his face full of lead,
Axle sneered as he took a step back and with a mighty snap of his leg, kicked the door open. The lock shattered under the force. Let’s move.
This time the Demon Riders had gone too far. Stealing their chick-wings and pumping them full of meth before selling them to The Russian was one thing— women who Axle fully intended to find and return. Ambushing some of their crew a while ago and killing two and wounding three more, still awaited WW revenge, but until they had a well thought out plan, they wouldn’t strike. It was the one thing Axle’s father had taught him from a young age— never counter in anger and never strike blindly. This time they had pushed the limit of Axle’s fury by setting him up in a meeting with one of the largest drug supplying Mexican cartels solely to have him locked up. Well, the motherfuckers just tipped the scale. They awakened the beast inside Axle. Retribution was going to be sweet... bloody and deadly.
No one fucks with me,
he muttered as he found the lever behind an empty shelf. The secret door slid open with a soft creak. Gunther helped to move the heavy steel frame out of the way.
Rage! Preacher! Where are you guys?
A female voice floated towards them from further down the hallway. It sounded like she was ascending the stairs. If the FBI agents turned the corner downstairs, she’d be compromised.
Jesus! What the fuck is Zara doing here?
Axle stopped in his tracks and glanced back. His little sister tended to stick her nose in where it didn’t belong and it always ended her in shit. This time it could be detrimental not just to her but him as well.
Fuckup dealings with drug lords like today were becoming too regular and Axle was on the brink of closing the drug trade down— locally for now, at least. Using tanker and container shipping to sell drugs offshore had become their most lucrative income stream. He’d be stupid to cut it too quickly, but in the end, it
