I can hear talking coming from close by. Does that mean Ricky is coming for me? My mattress feels softer than usual and there’s a lovely smell. Slowly I open my eyes and look around. Where the fuck am I? Slowly everything comes back to me.

“Cash, Ramsey.” My voice is too croaky to shout. But I know they heard me because they both step out of the bathroom at the same time.

When I see their faces, I cry. I wasn’t dreaming - they did come for me. They rush over to me and Ramsey slides in front of me and Cash behind me. They both pull me close and sandwich me in-between them both. This is our way. This is my home.

“Hey sweetheart, we’ve got you. Nothing is going to happen to you. We have to stay here for a few days before we can go home.”

“No. He’ll find me. He’ll take me again.” The panic is rising in me, my breath is getting shorter, and my eyes are stinging.

“No, Meg, he won’t.”

There's a couple minutes of silence. “I didn’t think you were coming for me. I thought you didn’t want me.”

“That’s not what happened, sweetheart.” Ramsey kisses my cheek and I feel Cash’s hand on my hip. These two men always manage to calm me down.

“Forty-four hours, twenty-five minutes had gone by when I left. I counted the minutes, hours, days to keep me sane. Every day I kept expecting the Black Saints to storm the building and take me home. The longer it went on the more I realized that no one was coming, and no one wanted me.”

“Sweetheart, that’s not what happened.” Ramsey brushes some hair out of my face and Cash kisses my shoulder.

“Why didn’t you come sooner?” My voice is really low and shaky.

“Who is our resident tech wiz?””

“Braxton.”

He smiles at me. “Who is the one that can find out any shit we need? Digs deep on the dark web and can locate anyone in fifteen minutes?”

Her eyes widen. “Me.”

“Yes, our tech guru was taken, and Brax can only do so much. We just couldn’t get a location on Ricky; he was a slippery fucker and used cash so we couldn’t trace him.”

“How did you find me in the end?”

“We reached out to Ghost.”

“Ghost? How the fuck did you find her?” I can’t believe they found her. She is going to be pissed.

“Rosie did. She came in and found you within a short time. We owe her big time.”

“I owe her too.” I close my eyes and think about Ghost and how she likes to hide, as her name suggests. She must have been freaked out when these guys descended on her.

“Razor wants to speak to you when you’re ready.” Cash kisses my shoulder again.

I take a deep breath. “I’m not ready. I want to tell you what happened to me. I don’t want to repeat myself or tell anyone else. You can do that for me, but I’m only telling my story once.”

Cash kisses me again and his deep, growly voice is in my ear. “You don’t need to tell us, sweetheart.”

I turn my head slightly. “I know, but I want to. I love you both and I know that I’m going to have dark days and I need you to understand what I went through so that you can help me with those days.”

Ramsey touches my cheek and pulls me back to look at him. He leans forward and places his lips on mine, very gently. “Meg, if you want to tell us then we want to know. We will be here for you all the way. He has to get through the two of us to get to you and that is not happening. Just one thing though.”

“What?” I have no idea what he is going to say.

“We both love you and if you think that you are going to be leaving our side when we get home then you can think again. You will be on lockdown with both of us until we finish this. We are getting them to take down the wall that separates my room from Cash’s and moving the two beds together. It’s all three of us against the world.”

My eyes fill with tears. These guys are my rock. I trust them with my life. I trust them with my darkest fears and secrets.
