Letting go Chapter 50
Molly We've been sitting in the bank for almost an hour in the hope that the money will arrive sooner than the Two-hour guidelines but so far no luck. It wasn't easy to get it arranged to be here in two hours. It took a lot of work on this bank's end and an extra check from me. I don't care about paying to have it brought here in fact, I offered them even more if they could get it here sooner but it just couldn't be done. Still, Tom and I agreed to wait here just in case we can catch a break and get it sooner. The quicker we get it to that bitch and the girls away from her the better. Speaking of that bitch, Callum called me not so long ago but of course, my phone somehow was on silent. I called him back and couldn't believe what he told me about what she has done. Taking the girls to the farm and hiding with the horses... that shit is absolutely priceless. Who in their right mind does that shit? She didn't do a great job of hiding them very well nor does it seem that she tried
Letting go Chapter 51
Christian I'm so fucking angry! What the hell is she playing at? "Let's look around, see if we can find any clues maybe?" Zack says. "Clues for what? Is there a secret doorway to Narnia that I'm unaware of!" I snap. "Christian don't do that." I look toward Jack pissed at his words. "Don't do what, Jack?" He steps closer to me putting his hand on my shoulder. "Don't take it out on, Zack. He's just trying to help. We're all at a loss here!" I run my hand through my hair tugging hard. He's right, I know he is and the last thing I want to do is take it out on any of my brothers. "Shit. I'm sorry Zack. I didn't mean to get shitty with you brother. I just... I have to find my girls!" My voice breaks just by saying the words. I feel broken like my whole body is slowly being torn apart. Zack walks up to me and pulls me into a hug slapping my back "Don't sweat it!" He pulls back a little but keeps his hands on my shoulders. "We're going to find your girls Chris and when we do it's going to
Letting go Chapter 52
Molly It feels like the journey to the farm takes forever but in reality, it hasn't, if anything it's gone a lot quicker than normal because Hunter has broken more speeding laws than I care to think about right now. We head down the long drive that leads to what was once the farmhouse but instead of Hunter parking in the usual spaces he turns left and heads towards the field. For a moment I wonder if he's lost his mind but then I see the tire marks in the grass and realize that we are following them. Clearly Christian or whoever was driving has driven this way so it makes sense for Hunter to follow. It'll lead us straight to them, much quicker than if we were walking, and if one of the others has driven through the fields then it's not like he can get in any trouble for it Besides, the whole entire farm is pretty much upside down and inside out from the Tornado and with the amount of work that's going to need doing, I highly doubt a few tire trails in the grass are going to make th

Christian"I don't know. I've tried calling her but there's no answer." How the fuck has this happened? I feel Molly tense next to me but she doesn't say a word. I look up and catch Jack's eyes, he looks down at mine and Molly's joined hands then back up at me. I slightly shake my head silently telling him not to say anything and I'm grateful when he gives me a nod but doesn't say anything. If any of my other brothers have noticed then they aren't making it obvious."She can't be far, we got here less than fifteen minutes after the phone call. She's more than likely still on the farm. Maybe the Tornado was a good thing after all." Callum's words instantly piss me off. "How the hell could the Tornado be a good thing? What the hell is wrong with you?"He gives me a strange look but I can't figure it out. It's kind of pissed but also amused at the same time and only angers me more."Chris, there are not a lot of buildings still intact here which is shit but that also means that there's o
Letting go Chapter 54
MollySeeing Sophie cling to Christian with all she has is both heartwarming and heartbreaking at the same time. The love she has for her dad is clear to see and vice versa but the fact that she's been left here all alone in the dark by her own mother and needs her dad to make her feel safe again tears at my heart."Your ok baby girl. Daddy's got you. Your safe!" Her sobs ring out loud and I know that every single one of Christian's brothers wants to hug that little girl right now, myself included."Do you know where your mom has taken Katie, sweetheart?" Hearing her tell him that she was left alone and that Amy has taken Katie with her makes my blood boil. Christian told her we had the money so what is she playing at now? I've got a bad feeling about this.She shakes her head while hiccuping and wiping her nose with her hand. "I'm sowwy Daddy." Oh, my heart. "You have nothing to be sorry for baby, nothing ok?" She nods her head but she's two years old and properly doesn't really unde
Letting go Chapter 55
MollyWe've been sitting in Dolly's dinner for the past two hours. It's been just over three hours since Christian spoke to Amy and still the shock hasn't lessened. After Christian got off the phone with her John insisted that we come here to eat and talk it all out. We all ordered food and drinks but we've barely eaten or drunk anything, I think we're all still trying to take in what we learned from that bitch. Me, Tom, and Christian are sitting in a large booth with Zack, Jack, Callum, and John sitting across from us. I'm stuck between Tom and Christian and there both sitting as close to me as possible despite there being room on both of their sides.Once we got back into town Ruby came to meet us and once Christian had filled both her and John in on everything that happened and what Amy said Ruby took Sophie back to the town hall with her so we could talk and as soon as the orders were in John wanted another re-run of all the details. "Son, tell me again what she said after you
Letting go Chapter 56
Christian"Good morning, Chris." Tom's voice is groggy as he steps into the lounge where I'm sitting with a sleeping Sophie on my lap. I look at the clock on the wall and it's only 5.05 am "Morning. What are you doing up so early?" He stretches and yawns while walking over to the big puffy chair that's in the corner. "I couldn't sleep. That bed ain't the comfiest and between Callum snoring like a fucking dog and Jack talking in his sleep I've not had any more than three hours of sleep."I laugh at Tom's answer, the man is not wrong. Callum has one of the loudest snores that I have ever heard and Jack doesn't shut up in his sleep, then again he doesn't shut up when he's awake either. "Why are you two down here so early?" He looks down at Sophie as she lays across my lap with her thumb in her mouth and her teddy close to her chest. "She's been having nightmares all night, I think the poor girl only had about three hours sleep herself. The other two were getting disturbed when she was wa
Letting go Chapter 57
Molly"You run?" I nod my head looking down at my coffee before lifting my head to face her shocked face "You didn't say a word?" I shake my head still not speaking a word. "That handsome man kissed you and you just run without saying anything. Good lordy girly Women don't run from a fine man like Christian, they run at him, not from him.She picks up a magazine from the coffee table and starts fanning herself and I can't help but laugh. "Penny, you're naughty." She gives me a cheeky grin while continuing to fan herself. "Oh, how I would be naughty for a man like Christian Bowen." I snort out a laugh that has her laughing and I realize that I feel lighter than I have in days. "Oh, Penny, you are hilarious." She smiles wide as she puts the magazine back on the table. "When you get to my age sweetheart you learn very quickly that life is too short. You need to smile, laugh and love with all you have."Those are pretty sobering words and hit something inside of me. "I have loved them bef
