The second she removed her hand, the pain increased. Still, she said nothing as Jess moved her shirt out of the way, before she cursed loudly, putting pressure on Sarah’s stomach.

Sarah screamed out as Jessica shouted. “Shit! Fuck the clinic. Hospital now. FLOOR IT SCRIBE!”

“What’s wrong?!” Scribe yelled as the truck increased its speed.

“The cunt stabbed her!” Jessica stated, before adding. “Gunner, call Claudia. Put it on speaker. Now!”

I did as I was told, and before long, I heard a female sigh. “What now, Gunner?”

“Claudia, it’s Jess. Get to the hospital. I’m bringing Sarah in. Small stab wound to the upper left midsection.”

I heard Claudia shout orders before she asked. “I’m leaving now, Jess. I’ll be waiting at the hospital. What’s her blood pressure and heart rate?”

Ignoring Jessica as she answered her, I heard Sarah whisper, “I’m sorry.”

I shook my head as I stroked her hair. “It’s not your fault, babydoll. It’s mine. I should have ended it a long time ago.”

“Gunner, I want this baby,” she whispered, as I watched a lone tear roll down her face.

“I do too, baby. I want it so much. I love you, Sarah.”

“I love you too,” she said, as her eyes closed.

“Sarah?” I choked, lightly shaking her.

“SARAH!”

Chapter Fifteen

Gunner

This was all my fault.

She wouldn’t even be here if I’d kept my promise. All I had to do was walk away. Instead of doing that, my woman was in surgery all because I couldn’t keep my dick in check.

“Gunner?”

I looked up and saw Beth and Mike standing before me.

I couldn’t even look at them. I’d hurt so many people because of my whoring ways and the one person I wanted to protect, I couldn’t.

“I’m so sorry, Beth,” I whispered, hanging my head.

“What happened?”

“What always happens when it concerns me? I fuck everything up.”

“Now is not the time for a pity party, Cord Montclair. I get that you are upset, but that is my daughter in surgery, and I demand you tell me what the hell happened. So, man the fuck up.”

“Holly showed up at my house. Sarah asked her nicely to leave. Holly didn’t and attacked Sarah. Your daughter wiped the floor with her. Holly never had a chance. We all thought it was over. But when Holly got to her feet, she grabbed Sarah and punched her in the stomach. We thought it was just a punch, but with the baby, I wasn’t taking any chances. I picked her up and was going to take her to the clinic. That’s when Jess saw the stab wound.”

“Where is Holly?” Mike growled.

“No clue. Last I knew, Bailey was kicking her ass at my house.”

The emergency doors opened and in walked King with the rest of my brothers, some shaking their head.

“Bailey’s in jail,” King smirked, walking over rubbing the back of his neck. “Man, is she pissed beyond belief!Gonna let her cool off before I bail her out. Sheriff McClure also has Holly in custody. Any word on Sarah?”
