Fuck, he's going after Wrath too. This has got to be Claire or one of Claire's guys; it's the only thing that makes sense. I'm trying my hardest to move, but I can't, the pain is too much. Lying there, unable to move, I watch in horror as the driver of the truck repeats the same move on Wrath, crashing into the back of his Harley. Wrath manages to keep more control than I did, though. His Harley skids across the road, with him still holding on. The truck stops next to him, and the driver gets out. From here, I can tell it's not Claire; the driver's male; he's got a massive build. Slowly walking over to Wrath, he pulls his bike off him before turning him over and tying his hands together with zip ties. He then lifts him over his shoulder and throws him into the back of his truck. I feel fucking useless right now. I can't move my body at all, and some fucker is taking my husband!
Once he's thrown Wrath in, he climbs in the driver's seat, but instead of taking off, he's reversing down the road towardsme. Fuck, he's going to take us both. Quickly grabbing my phone out of my back pocket, I click the little symbol on the screen that will send an emergency alert to Tech. It's literally the only thing I can do right now. Thank fuck, my phone is still working. I just hope it helps them find us. There's no doubt in my mind; we’re both about to be taken. Parking next to where I'm down, he gets out and walks towards me without a care in the world. Seeing I'm awake, he laughs before saying,“Two down, one to go.”
Yeah, definitely Claire's guy, then. Flipping me over, he zip-ties my hands together before throwing me in with Wrath. As I land, my head hits the floor hard, and that's all my body can take. My vision goes black, and I’m out.
When I wake up, it's not like the last time I was taken. I'm not confused this time; this time I remember everything that happened. I try to move but can't; I'm tied to a chair. Turning my head to the left, all I see is a door; when I turn it right, my blood runs cold. Wrath is tied to a chair next to me, still unconscious.
“Babe. Wrath. Jackson.”
I just keep repeating the same words over and over again, hoping he'll come too.
About five minutes later, I noticed his eyelids fluttering.
“Babe. Are you with me?”I ask quietly.
I have no idea if anyone is listening in or watching us, but I need to know he's okay.
“Yeah, I'm with you.”He groans out.“What happened?”
"Well, we got married; instead of a honeymoon, we got run off the road and taken,”I tell him quietly while trying to make light of the fucked-up situation we’re in.
"Fuck, that's not good. I remember crashing, and that's it; everything is blank. What about you?”He asks me worriedly.
“I was awake when you crashed. He'd already crashed into me, but I couldn't move. I had to fucking lie there watching him crash into you, and then as he tied you up and put you in thetruck. Once he had you sorted, he reversed down to get me. When he saw I was awake, he laughed and told me two down, one to go. So clearly, Claire's behind this. All she's missing is Shadow.”I tell him while taking deep breaths.
It's hurting to breathe. I definitely suffered some internal damage during the crash. This isn't good.
“I managed to hit the emergency alert on my phone before he got me.”I manage to tell him as my world once again goes black.
Chapter Thirty-Five
Shadow
What the hell is going on? I've tried to ring both Wrath and Flame to find out more details about what happened with Blade, but they're not answering. Now, instead of being with Megan like I had planned, I'm just sitting here in The Clubhouse, waiting for them to show their faces.
Suddenly, Tech comes running into the room, heading directly for me, looking petrified. Skidding to a stop in front of me, he drops his hands to his knees.
“You need to come with me now, Shadow.”He manages to say, while trying to catch his breath. He's clearly ran all the way here from his cave, with him being so breathless.
Standing, I follow him out of the room to his cave all the time, worrying about what the hell is going on.
“What's going on, Tech?”I ask worriedly.
“Wrath and Flame have been taken.”
He just dropped the bomb on me.
“What do you mean they've been taken?”I grind out.
I need more fucking information than that, but it makes sense with neither of them answering my calls and them not being here at The Clubhouse like I expected.
“I got the emergency alert from Flame’s phone. I immediately tried to call him but got no answer. I traced where his phone was and was able to hack into the cameras there. Watch the screen.”He tells me as he clicks play on the video.
I watch in horror as two of the most important people in my life get run off the road and taken.
“Can you track that truck?”I ask him while trying to keep my cool.
"Yes, and I have; the problem is where the truck went. It pulled up at one of the mansions on the outskirts of town. It's the one owned by the Police Chief.”He informs me with a grimace.
