Page 252 of Savage Brothers MC: Tennessee Chapter

“I want to be the one to tell you what’s going on and ask for your help.I don’t want you doing it because a brother asked for it.I know I come with Devil now, but my past… it doesn’t.”

Diesel frowns almost as much as I do—probably because he doesn’t buy that fucking shit either.Once you’re property of the Savage crew, that’s it—past, present, future.We don’t leave our family hanging in the fucking breeze.It’s clear Torrent’s father, Dodger, ran a shitty club.He had to, or he never would have trusted that fucker Wolf in the first place.

“Fine.Let me have it,” Diesel orders, and despite Torrent trying to push me away, I make her sit in my lap.The last thing I need her to do is to have our baby while standing and drop the little guy on his head.She’s so ready to pop, that’s a real possibility.

“Before I went into the cellar…” Her voice trembles a little, as she reaches back, grabs my hand and holds onto it tightly.“Before I found where Wolf was holding Logan, I retrieved a letter my father had written.I never really got around to reading it.I mean, Logan and I had been through so much.I just really felt like opening it would unleash more misery and I needed to heal.Then, I just wanted to concentrate on Logan getting better and our baby…”

“I get it, Torrent,” Diesel says gently.“I take it you finally read the letter.”

Torrent nods.“Yeah… last night.Although, I made Logan wait until this morning to bother you.There was really nothing you could do and there was just no point in?—”

“It’s okay,” Diesel says again with a hint of a smile.I watch as he takes in the death grip Torrent has on my hand, and the way she’s trembling.My brother is smart.He’s picking up the signs of her panic and he’s doing his best to keep her calm.“What did the letter say?”he asks, and Torrent’s nails bite into my hand.

“I have a sister.”

“I don’t understand,” Diesel says, confused.“I thought there was just you,” Diesel answers, looking from Torrent to me.He’s understandably confused.If I had known about Torrent’s sister the club would have done everything they could and taken her in too.

“We didn’t know about her.Torrent thought she was all that was left after her brother died, Diesel…until the letter.”

“I’m still not following.How did you not know about your sister?You lived with your father, right?”

“I did, but I didn’t know she existed.Apparently, my mother was seeing another man, by then my father knew the marriage was over, but he didn’t divorce her.He wanted to keep my brother and I close and if he had kicked her out, she would have taken us.Dad didn’t feel many courts would let an ex-con and member of a club keep custody of two little kids.”

“Probably wouldn’t have,” Fury grunts.

“So, the other man?He has your sister?”

“No… at least, I don’t think so.My father said my mom had become afraid of this other man and he helped her to go away and have the child.I remember Mom being gone, but she would disappear all the time anyway, so I didn’t think anything about it.I just remember her being different when she came back.”

“Different how?”

“Wilder… she drank a lot, she drank so much that… Dad wouldn’t let her be alone with me or my brother.”

“What did she do with your sister?Any idea?”Gunner asks.

“I didn’t even know she existed until I read the letter, but Dad said he tried to keep up with my sister, just in case I ever wanted to get to know her.He helped Mom place her in an orphanage.”

“I only have my mother’s name and the name of the orphanage, Diesel.That’s it… but…”

“Torrent honey.You’re family.We will get this mess with King and Wolf behind us and then we will definitely help you find your sister.”

“That’s just it, Diesel,” I tell him.“Angel, baby.Let me talk to my brother, you’re too emotional, it’s going to take you all day to get him the info he needs,” I murmur in her ear.She nods slowly, rubbing under her stomach.

“Somebody, please tell me something.I need to get back to Rory and Ryan.”

“Torrent’s mother was afraid of the child’s father.Dodger wrote he didn’t know who the fucker was, but that Layla—Torrent’s mother—did confess that he was a member of the club.”

“No offense, and you’re right to be upset, this sounds like a fucking soap opera, but we will find the girl.I’ve yet to see what in the hell is so urgent here, or what it has to do with Wolf.”

“We think the father is Wolf.”

“Motherfucker,” Fury growls under his breath.

“It makes sense.He bragged to Devil while torturing him that he slept with my mother and how he was going to have her daughter too,” Torrent adds.

“You really need to kill that son of a bitch,” Gunner says.

“That’s the plan.At least it is if I ever find the asshole.”
