CandicePinochle is a terrible card game. My grandmother taught me when I was fourteen and I've always hated it. I just always play with her because my grandfather used to and it's one more thing me and her can reminisce about him. As she laughs her ass off her recent win, I get off the recliner and head to the kitchen for a water bottle. As I guzzle down the refreshing drink I think back on Austin and I's conversation a few minutes ago. Austin sounded distracted but it's to be expected. He did tell me that he had another meeting with that Snake guy today, so he is probably still absorbed with that. I hate that he can't be too specific about club business with me, but when I spoke to Abby about it, she explained to me that lots of old ladies feel that way, but it was for our own good. She also told me that after all this is done there won't be secrets between me and Austin because there won't be anything to keep from me. I didn't tell her that I relished in that.I walk back into t

AustinI ride as fast as I can and try to let the road take away my anger. I can typically get caught up just fine in my ride and lose myself in the road in front of me, but not today. I spent all day yesterday angry as fuck over so many things. Candice being the forefront of it all. After we left the hospital I went back to the clubhouse to explain why we no longer needed to tail Candice and her family. The brothers questioned me, but I just told them it wasn't important. I may be mad as all hell at her, but I won't have the guys take out their revenge.That meeting only led to more questions which I didn't have answers for. No one has seen Psych and I have no clue where the asshole could be. Spoke to Snake as well and he lost his lead on Psych. It's like the bastard just disappeared. I should have kicked Cole's ass yesterday when I saw him, but I knew that would lead to my arrest and his chance at my club. I'm not stupid enough to let that happen.I pull up to the clubhouse and he

Candice"Alright Mr. Welsh can you take a deep breath for me?" I ask the eighty-one-year-old man in front of me. He came in today for a broken rib and I just finished wrapping him up.After a few painful deep breaths from my patient, I send a nurse in to give him his discharge papers and walk back over to my office. When I get to my desk there is a single rose sitting on it with a note with writing in black ink. A smile pulls at my lips as I recognize Ben's handwriting.You look beautiful today-BenI smile warmly at the gesture. Everyone except Lyla is tip toeing around me today. It's my first day back at work after my vacation and it feel like it's been eight months since I've last worked, not eight days. So much has transpired since the day I got a flat tire on the side of the road. Last night, after Austin left, my grandmother talked me into going after him. Telling me that sometimes as women, we have to not be the damsel in distress but be the knight in shining armor. Her les

CandiceIt's been two months since my break down with Laynie. Two months of constant work, two months of getting closer and closer with mom and two months of missing Austin. Every fiber in my heart is broken because of that man but I have found other ways of making each and every day worth getting out of bed.Mom and I have grown closer in all this. She is starting to accept that her leg will just never be the same again. We spend a lot of time talking with each other. She has learned that I've kept myself from her most of my life. At first she beat herself up over it, and when she noticed that I refrained from telling her more, she stopped feeling pity and just started listening. We cried, we hugged, we laughed. We healed. Mom even started seeing her physical therapist. One day, Rodger just came by the house and flat out asked my mother out. It was actually really cute, grandma and I had noticed he stood on our front porch for about ten minutes giving himself a pep talk, it was so w

CandiceIt's been a week since Jared and I rekindled. He calls every day to ask how I am and to make sure I made it home alright. He hates the situation I'm in with Nicholas, but he knows it's a work in progress. He told me last night he was going to start therapy and I'm excited for him. I don't know the details behind him and Laynie's split, but I can tell it affected Jared pretty bad. I told mom about our relationship and surprisingly she couldn't be happier for me. Apparently Rodger knows his stuff."Earth to Candy." I hear a familiar voice coming from the doorway.My shift just started at work and I am currently working on putting a patient list together for the girls. I look up from my screen and see Melissa standing at the hem of the door with her head sticking inside the room. I stand up and walk over to her. She looks awful. Her make up is all smeared around her face like she's been sleeping in it for days, her skin is pale, she looks weary and tired and her eyes are comple

Austin"I don't know anything about that piece of shit."I rub my hand roughly down my face. We have been at this for over an hour and this bitch still has not given us any information. She is sitting on our couch looking comfortable as fuck while all I'm thinking about is hitting something. Max, with the help of Snake, was able to track down Miranda, A.K.A Psych's baby mamma. I thought she would be timid and nervous around a bunch of angry brooding bikers, but she was quite the opposite. Strolled in here with her two kids and demanded "One of us stupid ass bikers" watch them while she had a smoke."When was the last time you seen him Miranda?" Snake demands in a coarse voice.That seems to startle her a bit, but she quickly applies her mask of defiance back on. She's hiding something, I fucking know it. I stride over to her, get down and close enough to her face and shout."Did you fucking hear him bitch? Where the fuck is he? I know you know something and you ain't saying shit,

CandiceI've always thought I had a high tolerance of pain. It's one reason why I chose to become a nurse. It never bothered me too much to see the sight of blood or a twisted arm. I've even had someone come in with their finger in a pickle jar with ice, but right now my tolerance is escaping my mind. Psych has me tied to a chair, I am straddling it from the back and my hands are tied with zip ties onto the arms of it. There is a video camera in front of me and Jesse is smirking behind it. She looks completely fucked out of her mind. I've seen enough patients that come in just looking for her next fix, she is defiantly on cocaine. I take a deep breath and prepare for the impact of the whip hitting my flesh again. I'm sure my scrubs are drenched in blood. He's been going at it for about half an hour.The first few minutes I refused to give into to him and bit down on my lips every time the coarse whip struck my delicate back but after he noticed what I was doing, the whipping came i

AustinI pull up to the hospital not long after the phone call with Shane. All he told me was that I needed to get my ass over to the hospital as soon as possible, so that's what I did. I left Max to deal with Miranda and Snake. I know I shouldn't have done that, as president it's up to me to see out another president from my club but for once the club and all its rules are coming second. Hearing Shane's distress was enough of a kick in the ass for me to see that this woman was made for me and I have no intension of letting her go again. I just hope I'm not too late. Shane meets us half way up the emergency entrance and I stop so we can walk over from prying ears and eyes. Cops are usually in this area and I don't want them even getting in my way. Especially if my girl is danger."She showed up at work a few hours ago but Doc says she left early. Took her car. Got a hold of the security camera, she wasn't alone." Shane says when we are far enough away from people."How the fuck di
