Chapter 33
Titan
I was annoyed when my phone rang. I was thinking it was another reporter wanting to interview me. I wasn't expecting my woman to be on the other end of the line. I could feel my emotions hit me when she sobbed my name.
"Baby." I said to her and I could hear the emotion in my voice.
Everyone around me just stopped.
"Keep her on the phone as long as you can. We can get her location from the phone." I heard Hound says to me.
I shake my head telling confirming that I heard him.
"I'm putting you on speaker phone so your daddy, papaw, Hound, and Pike can hear you answers the questions we have."
"Is it really you on the phone?" I ask her.
I know it's really her but I guess my only excuse is that I'm shocked she was able to get to a phone.
"Were are you? Are you safe?" I ask her.
"I don't know where I'm at but I'm hurt bad Dean." She says in a small strained voice.
I swear I'll kill that that motherfucker when I get my hands on him.
"I think I'm in Virginia. I overheard Pete and Ali talking about an abandoned cabin on a property next to his." She tells us.
She tells us how long she thinks she was on the road before taking two different gravel roads.
"I knocked Pete out and locked him in the room where I was being held." She tells us.
I know that there's more to the story but I decide I won't ask her about it right now.
"Baby describe the area around you and what the cabin looks like?"
"There's a porch." She says.
"Baby, hide under it just in case Pete's able to get out of the room. We'll be there shortly and I'll be bringing your daddy, papaw, and all the brothers with us to get you."
I'm trying to keep my emotions bottled up but the tears roll down my face when she sobs with the built up emotion.
"I love you." She tells me.
I know in that second she really thought she was going to die.
" I love you too baby." I say to her and I know she can her the tears in my voice.
"You have to be brave and strong just a little while longer. We love you baby doll." Captain and Zeus say to her.
She can her the tears in their voices also.
"I'm hurt really bad and she's scared." She says and I think we just about lose it.
Zeus, Captain, and I are getting our cuts on and walking toward the door to get to my truck.
"I have her location." Hound says to us.
"Baby we know where you're at and we're on our way right now."
"Okay please hurry. I'm hiding."
"Don't talk to me unless I ask a question baby."
I explain that I'll talk to her quietly so she can hear my voice and we know her location and we're on our way to get her. The brothers get on their bikes while Hound and Pike get into Hounds truck. Zeus, Captain, and I get into my truck.
"I think I should drive so you can talk to our girl." Captain says to me and I agree with him.
I'm whispering to her so if Pete gets out he can't hear me; but she knows I'm still with her. I hear her laboring breathes and I know she's in pain.
"You need to have Thorpe and Sis on Stand by for when we get to her. You should call Nic also because two doctors are better than one." I say to Zeus and he shakes his head okay and makes the call.
"Baby we'll be there in thirty minutes. I need you stay with me." I whisper to her in a soothing voice.
I don't know if she hears me or not because her breathing is shallow and I'm worried that she's hurt even worse than we really understand. I feel rage like I've never felt before and I really think I could murder Pete and Ali and that scares me just a little bit.
We pull up onto the gravel road and we know that the cabin's about a mile down the road so Captain stays in the truck with the walkie that Hound gave him and rest of us start the hike to the house. We all have our guns out and the safeties off and I don't think any of us will fill bad if we have to shoot that fucker. I think that most of us want him to give us a reason so that we can. Mine and Zeus's main concern is Lyric though. We make the mile trek in five minutes and Hound tells Steel, Fury, Demon, Speed, Milk and Zinger to go around back and wait for his signal. He tells Gunner, Pounder, Shooter, kid, and Knives to go to the windows. He tells Reap, Stick, Muscles, Monster, and Shadow to go in through the front with him. Road Runner, Que, and Stone to stay with Zeus and I. Pike's with Captain, Killer, and Sonny. Thorpe's waiting for us to bring Lyric to the Hospital with Nic and Sis. The prospects are guarding our families now that everyone is on lock down on the hill.
Everyone has their ear pieces in and Hound tell us they're going in on a three count. As soon as they're in the door Zeus and I go get baby doll quick.
"Road Runner, Que and Stone get them the fuck out of here quickly. Captain you have 30 seconds after you hear us go in the door to haul ass here and pick them up. Get her to the fucking hospital and don't worry about the rest of us. We'll clean up and be behind you in 10-15 minutes top." He says to us all.
Hound counts down and they go in through the front and back doors and the windows are being broken. Zeus and I haul ass to Lyric. I crawl under the porch and I see her in a fetal position. I get to her and as soon as I try to move her she starts to scream. I can't help the tears that come out of my eyes.
"It's me baby. I have to get you out of here." I whisper to my woman.
She moans painfully and says my name. I pick her up and scoot myself to the end of the porch to were Zeus is. She's crying out in pain and I see the look of sorrow on his face that I know is the same as what's on my face. He takes her out of my arms and she cries out in agonizing pain. .
"You're safe now sweetheart. You've been so brave honey. We're here now. We got you." He starts whispering to her and she starts to calm down.
I get out from under the porch just as Captain pulls up. I get into the back seat and Zeus puts her in my arms and shuts the door. He jumps into the front seat as Road Runner, Que and Stone get into the bed of the truck. Que hits the top of the cab and Captain turns the truck around. As we start to make the trip back down the gravel road I see that Lyric can feel all the bumps and rivets in the road. I try to brace her into me as she keeps crying out but I know it really doesn't matter what I do. I'm sure she's bleeding internal, has broken ribs, broken arm, broken leg, and maybe a collapsed lung. We stop at the bikes because we know she won't be able to make it on the other gravel road or even to the hospital at this point.
"We've gotta call flight for life to come get her." Zeus says to everyone.
"There won't be a clean-up. Lyric killed Pete on her own." Hound informs us all.
"Lyric's so bad off that we need the Helicopter to come get her." Zeus says to Thorpe.
"I'll be on the chopper with them. We'll be here in ten minutes." He tells us.
"Baby we won't put you through another gravel road. Thorpe's coming with a helicopter to get you baby. I love you. I need you to hang on. Baby you've made it this far don't die on us now. Your daddy and papaw are here with you. Our babies want their momma home. Sweetheart you made it out of the nightmare. Now you just have to stay strong enough to keep yourself breathing and you're your heart beating. Baby don't leave Jasmine, Jameson or me. Your daddy, papaw, and I will never let anything bad happen to you again. I promise you, baby." I whisper to her.
"I love you. I didn't think I was ever going to see my babies, daddy, papaw, or you again. I was so scared." She says as she comes around.
"We're right here with you baby. You need to keep your energy and not to hurt yourself more by talking." I say because I can tell it hurts her to talk.
She moans and losses consciousness again. All the brothers make it back to where we are. A few minutes later we hear the Helicopter. It lands in a field right next to us and Thorpe and Nic come running out with the Medics.
Thorpe gets to the truck and Stone opens the door for him. He takes one look at my woman and I know that she's in worse shape than we originally thought. Thorpe yells for the medic to get an IV in her and some Dilaudid or Morphine.
"I can't and won't move her yet." He says to us.
The medic gets the IV in and starts to put her on a Saline drip and then puts morphine in the IV. They wait for about five minutes and then carefully they move her from my lap onto a board. Thorpe and Nic do their best to keep their faces neutral.
"We have to get her back to Harlan now. She's in bad shape but we don't know the extent of the damage until we get her to the hospital." Thorpe explains to us.
They move her to the chopper and Zeus and I get in with her and we take off. They have hooked her up to a half dozen cords and monitors.
