“I could do that,” she murmurs.
“Good then I’ll talk to Stoney about it, but I’m telling you now, lil mama, I wanna see you writing. We’ll get you a laptop to work on.”
Parker’s mouth opens and closes but words don’t come out. Instead, she stands from where she’s sitting. Her body coming flush with mine and lifts up on her toes to press her lips to mine. I’ve never allowed another woman to put her mouth on mine but when it comes to Parker, I can’t get enough of her mouth.
I take control fusing our mouths together as I give her a searing kiss. I pull back and tap her on the ass. “Get dressed, baby,” I command.
I turn and finish getting dressed myself. There’s a little pounding on the door as I’m slipping on my boots. I tilt my head to find Parker dressed, her toes poking out of the bottom of the jeans that are a little too long.
“Mommy, Daddy, letting me in.” I smirk and go open the door to find Piper standing there with her hands on her hips. “You didn’t come get me,” she mutters with the attitude only she could pull off.
“We were just on our way to get you,” I tell her, squatting down in front of her to pick her up. Lifting her into my arms, I stand back up and nod to Rachel who was standing there. “Thanks, Rachel,” I murmur.
“No problem, she did good last night. I think she was just ready to see her mom when she woke up and couldn’t wait. And I mean she couldn’t wait. The little munchkin just woke up two minutes ago,” Rachel explains.
Chuckling, I glance at the little girl in my arms. “Is that so?” I ask as Rachel turns to head back down the hallway.
Piper nods in response and leans back with her arms crossed over her chest. “Yes.”
I grin and give Piper’s belly a tickle. “Come on then,” I chuckle, closing the door.
“Mommy,” Piper squeals, delighted to see her mom.
“Hey, baby,” Parker laughs and steps over to us and reaches out for Piper.
Piper immediately launches herself into her mom’s arms. I smile at the love she holds for her daughter shining through her eyes.
Piper’s excited and throwing her arms out.
“Easy, baby, your arms,” Parker says right as Piper let’s out a piercing scream. “Piper, calm down, sweetie, it’s gonna be okay.”
Parker lifts her gaze to me. “I need to get her to the hospital and have her doctor meet us there,” she murmurs, holding Piper to her.
Nodding, I grab my cut and throw it on, grab my keys then take Piper from Parker. “Get your shoes, we’ll go.”
I open the door and step into the hallway. Piper’s screams of pain draw attention from everyone around.
“What’s happened?” Whip asks.
“Piper’s elbows slipped out of place,” I explain as Parker comes up behind me.
“Fuck, poor kid,” Whip mutters his eyes softening as they land on Piper. “I’ll get a few brothers together.”
“Thanks, Whip,” I mutter, heading for the door.
“We’ll get the new prospect to drive the cage,” Stoney says as he joins us. “We’ll take the bikes and surround it, we’ll have three in the front and three behind the cage.”
I nod and open the door to the back. I put Piper in the car seat and step back so Parker can strap her in. “I’m following on my bike,” I inform her.
Nodding she hops in the seat. Harley and Tinsley get in on the other side. I can understand Tinsley going since she’s a nurse but I’m guessing Harley’s going to show her support and to keep Parker calm.
I close the door behind Parker and head for my bike.
As I straddle the back of my bike, my gut twists. I don’t like this. My gut tells me something’s gonna happen and I don’t know what.
Chapter Fifteen
Parker
I knew it the moment she started to flail her arms around wildly it was gonna happen. When she gets overly excited and starts moving her arms quickly Piper ends up jerking her arms making them slip out of joint. It’s how she did it one time before.
“She’ll be okay,” Tinsley murmurs from the front seat. I’d met her at the hospital before, she’d been Piper’s nurse. I’d been surprised to see her jump into the SUV with Harley, who introduced herself to me as soon as she jumped in the backseat on the other side of Piper, as the prospect driving the SUV floors it.
Piper’s cries of pain kill me.
I nod my response while trying to soothe my little girl.
We’re pulling out onto the main road and all of a sudden squealing tires are heard and Tinsley and Harley scream. Then I felt it. Pain radiates through my body. I feel the vehicle being moved with the force of the one that slammed into us.
Gunfire rings out, my name is yelled along with Harley’s, someone grips my arms and yanks me roughly from the vehicle. Then everything goes dark.
Throbbing pain radiates through my body and I can barely move from the cold floor I’m lying on.
“She’ll sell for a nice price, it’s a shame you didn’t have time to get the little girl as well. She would have brought us a hefty amount,” a woman says in a heavily accented voice, drawing my attention to my surroundings. Footsteps come closer and I squeeze my eyes shut not wanting them to know I’m awake.
“If it weren’t for those fuckin’ bikers I would have nabbed her as well.” I knew that voice to be my brother’s.
Then I remember, the wreck.
Oh God.
The gunshots. Piper. Cane.
Please. Please. Please let them be okay. Let Cane be taking care of my daughter.
I hope everyone is
