“I got to agree with Neo on this,” Ranger grumbles. “Though we leave Harlow out of this. Lavina knows her and will have warned her guards about her. Besides she’s thirteen weeks pregnant. I’m not risking her getting hurt and losing the baby.”
“Blaze, Tracker, you okay with your ol’ ladies coming in on this?”
“Not by a long shot but I know they’re our key in,” Tracker sighs.
“I agree,” Blaze remarks none too happy about having to put a potential target on his ol’ lady’s back once more.
“Then you two go round them up. Cane, you can put Piper in the room with Rachel and the kids. She’ll watch over her and do as the doctor said if she wakes up.” I nod to Stoney and stand. “We leave in five.”
“Did Harley say anything about Parker?” I ask, needing some type of news.
Anything.
“All she said was, Parker helped her over the windowsill she escaped through. Brother, we gotta hurry,” Neo mutters and I can read between the lines.
Nodding, I take Piper to Rachel and Stoney’s room. Rachel shows me where to lay her down. I press a kiss to her cheek and whisper in her ear that I would be back with her mommy.
Leaving Piper hurts my heart but I needed to in order to get my woman back.
It doesn’t take long for us to get to where Harley called Neo from. She’d called from an old man’s home who was kind enough to let her use the phone and who’s standing with a shotgun in front of her.
At least she found someone who would protect her until we got here.
“Harley,” Neo yells as he puts the kickstand down, climbs off the back of his bike, and rushes to his woman.
Harley sobs and clutches to him when he wraps his arms around her.
“You have to hurry. Please hurry,” she pleads with Neo.
“Calm down, Angel. I need you to tell us where she is,” Neo says calmly.
Harley takes a calming breath and explains running through a field and it couldn’t have been more than a mile, two tops from the way she pointed.
“Let Raven and I go in first,” Victoria murmurs, coldly.
“Vi,” Tracker mutters.
“No, we need to do this. I’ll text you as soon as we’re in place. We need to do this right and that means me and Raven go in first,” Victoria states and looks to Raven.
Raven nods. I’ve seen her at work when things went down after she had Mark but I’ve never seen her like this. Her eyes were colder than ice as she looks to Victoria. “Shut it off, Victoria,” she murmurs quietly and instantly Victoria’s features go expressionless. She becomes Silent Night.
Without looking back, both women take off in the direction Harley told us she came from.
“Fuckin’ hate she’s having to do this again,” Tracker grumbles.
“Same, brother, same. I don’t like it any more than you do. But they don’t know about them and won’t be looking out for them,” Blaze growls.
“Let’s get moving, brothers. I want to be right behind Raven and Victoria for when they give us the high sign,” Stoney states with a look of determination.
I nod in agreement. I’m more than ready to get the high sign and get to my woman. I’ll kill any man who stands in my way.
Chapter Seventeen
Parker
Marshall finished wailing on my face. I could feel swelling setting in already and the blood trickling down my cheek from where he cut into my skin with the rings he wears on his right hand. He stands up from straddling my torso bringing me with him by gripping my hair in his fist.
“Stop please,” I beg, my smaller hands covering his, trying to get him to release his grasp on my hair.
“No, bitch, I’m going to make sure you know your place this time,” he sneers.
“I know my place. Let me go. I don’t belong to you or my brother,” I screech.
“That’s were you’re wrong, Parker. I bought you from your brother. I paid for you. He didn’t just tell me to teach you a lesson. You’ve been mine this entire time. But you foolishly thought threatening to go to the cops and pressing charges would keep me a way. The hospital might have done a rape kit on you, bitch, but they wouldn’t have gotten me. I could have easily put a stop to it but for your brother wanting you to think he’ll protect you, I did as he asked. I left for a while, now we have a daughter, and you are coming back where you belong. Or I will find the rugrat and drown her in the nearest river.”
This man would kill his own child.
Shaking with terror, I stop fighting him.
I don’t want anything to happen to my daughter.
I know Cane will protect her. He’ll make sure no one brings harm her way.
Marshall drags me by my hair and takes me back through the building in the direction Harley and I came from when we were sneaking out. He pulls me behind him further and stops at a door long enough to open it. He drags me into the room with him. My eyes burn at the sight in front of me as well as my ears.
Moans and groans fill the room and the sight of naked women and my brother are seared into my brain.
Gross.
Nausea rolls in my stomach causing it to churn.
In the middle of the room, they had Cherry strapped to some sort of swing mechanism as she is being screwed from the front and the back by, I’m guessing Lavina and my brother. Underneath where Cherry is hanging is another woman kneeling using her mouth while
