Phoebe followed and wrapped Garret in her arms.
Walker
I looked at the doors, and with Sydney in my arms, we waited.
Knox
I looked at Clip, who was posted in front of Creedence.
I knew that it was Ripper’s blood she was covered in.
I looked down at Fiona, who winked and then said, “Go. I know what you want to do. I’ll be okay.”
I kissed her deeply, then stalked over to Clip, who narrowed his eyes at me, and then I stepped around him and wrapped my arm around Creedence’s shoulders.
Her eyes came to mine, and then she burst into tears.
I picked her up and gathered her in my arms.
Then I held on tight.
Storm
Fifteen hours later, two doctors had stepped in and a shift change, but they were still working on him.
No one had left.
Even the Alabama Chapter of Wrath MC made the drive.
Shared with us shit they heard.
They’d been on their way.
Then DeLuca got word of what was shared, looked at Ariel, and kissed her.
Ivan kissed Caristiona.
Luka kissed Lyndsey.
Then DeLuca looked at Garret and said four words, “It will be handled.”
Then the three of them left with a murderous glint in their eyes.
I smiled.
Then, one doctor stepped out, took in our group, and then he looked at Creedence, who was still curled in Knox’s lap.
Blood still covered every inch of her.
He walked over to her as Knox gently shook her awake.
She looked up at him, then at the doctor, and straightened.
Everything quieted down, then he asked, “Are you his Star Shine?”
She bit her lip and nodded.
He smiled, but I recognized that look.
