“I don’t know if I’ll ever get the experience out of mine,” I whisper.
“Breaker,” Dash calls out as my other brother, Flynn, rushes toward us with a blanket as Breaker turns to him.
“Here take Nora for a bit, put her in my truck and stay with her. I’ll be right behind you,” Breaker states as Flynn wraps me in the blanket and takes me out of my husband’s arms.
“What are you going to do?” I ask panic starting to take over. I don’t want to be away from him.
“It’s okay, ma tendre, I’ll be right behind you. I’m just going to make sure this fucker can never hurt another person again,” he grumbles as he cups the side of my face. “Promise I’ll only be a few minutes.”
“Okay.” Nodding my head, I let my brother carry me out of the horrifying building. Right before Flynn exits the building Miles’ screams of terror fill the air.
“Gotta say, Smalls, that man will go to the ends of the earth for you,” Flynn grumbles as he carries me to Breaker’s truck but I don’t let him sit me down in it. I need his connection at least until I see my husband.
“I know,” I whisper laying my head against my brother’s chest while I focus on the doors to the building and wait for Breaker to come through.
The moment he does, I feel like I can breathe again.
“Might want to get back some,” he calls out as he gets close enough to take me out of Flynn’s arms as he looks over at one of his brothers. “Throttle, you have the other two?”
“Yeah, I’m takin’ them to deal with the remains,” Throttle states.
“Good,” Breaker grunts as he rounds the truck to the driver’s side slides me in first before climbing in and pulls me back into his arms. “I’m fuckin’ sorry I didn’t get here sooner, Spitfire,” he murmurs to me.
“It’s okay, I knew you’d come for me.” Lifting a hand, I brush a hand across his chest as my eyes grow heavy. “I love you, Orin,” I whisper.
“Love you to, mon amour, always.”
Smiling, I close my eyes and let the darkness take me knowing I was safe, and our baby would be okay.
I also knew my life was finally filled with everything I ever wanted.
Epilogue
Breaker
The day I met Nora; I knew she was going to be mine. Now as I stare down at her in our bed, my arms wrapped around her waist, I can’t help but think of the child she’s carrying.
The last few days have been complete and utter hell. I never want to go through what we went through again. The thought of having lost Nora to that fucker, Miles Granger, turns my stomach.
The sadistic bastard had taken her from me.
Granted, I’m known for being levelheaded and the jokester but that doesn’t mean I don’t have a short fuse, I’ll be the first to admit it. My brothers all know this as well. I’m not one to cross.
To say Nora has a way of testing my patience like no other is an understatement. The day Miles took her, I’d fucked up, rather than explaining shit further to her I’d laid it down and told her what was happening, like I should have. She didn’t like it and threw her attitude at me. I didn’t need to deal with that at the moment and I’d put an end to it for the time being. I should have stayed and worked shit out with her. Maybe then that stupid bitch, Dee, wouldn’t have gotten to her.
Try as I might, my patience went out the window when Throttle stepped into the warehouse to tell me the news. My phone doesn’t get signal inside due to the hardware Fuse set up to keep anyone from being able to bug the place. When Throttle, Lynch, and Brake got my attention to break the news to me about Nora missing, my heart nearly shattered as the bomb dropped. If it hadn’t been for the fury inside me ready to break loose, I would have fallen to my knees but I wasn’t going to let my woman go that easily.
I swore then and there I’d stop at nothing to get her back. My brothers backed me on it. As Chains said, “We don’t do shit alone. Doesn’t matter who we go up against. We do it together.”
It didn’t take more than a few hours to find my woman, but we’d had to do this right in order to save her. Thankfully, Nora was back in my arms before midnight and I’d sat with her passed out in my arms as I watched the night light up with the flames where Miles’ body burned.
I’d slaughtered the two other men who had been in the building with Miles. I made sure to gut them like a fish leaving them wide open for the gators to have at them when I was done. I had Throttle load them in the cargo van, I hadn’t paid attention to at the time until we’d gotten Nora down from the chains. The next day I threw their bodies into the water. However, where Miles was concerned, I’d left his and Dee’s bodies, along with the man I now know Nora killed, lying on the floor of the building and set the place on fire. I had needed to make sure that he nor anyone else in that building would never see the light of day again by burning them all to a fuckin’ crisp.
Once I had Nora back in my arms. I didn’t let her go, not once. I needed to feel her against me. I held her through the night. I couldn’t help thinking of just how strong willed my woman really was. Not only did my woman do her best to try and protect our child during those hours she had been
