Ophelia
We ended up driving eleven hours the first day and stopped in a small town somewhere in Ohio. There was a little motel off the road that we stopped at. Damian got out and went in to talk to them. Apparently, they still accept cash because he came back with keys to a room.
We pulled around to the room and got out. We were both glad to see it was at least half ass clean. We put our bags in the room, then walked across the street to the little diner. It was adorable, and you could tell they were proud of their state. There was Ohio stuff all over the place. We took a seat in a booth and looked over the menu.
"How are you all doing today?” the waitress said.
"We're good thanks," I said.
"My name is Tammy; I will be your waitress. What can I get you to drink?"
"I'll have water with lemon please." I said.
"I

Ophelia The next morning, I woke up to find that Damian was already up cooking breakfast. It smelled amazing. I got out of the back of the truck and walked over to him. He was sitting at the picnic table looking at the map. I walked up and wrapped my arms around him. "Good morning," I said, as I kissed him on the cheek. “Good morning baby girl. How did you sleep?" "I slept well actually. The air mattress is pretty comfy." "Yeah, it's not too bad." "So, what's our next stop?" "Well, we're going to go across Tennessee over to Arkansas. We'll probably stay the night in Arkansas and finish the drive tomorrow. I want to arrive after my cousins have left for school. I know my aunt and uncle are going to have questions. I figured it would be better to explain this without worrying about the kids hearing." "That's fine. Will I have to use

Ophelia As we drove through the small town in Texas, my heart started racing. I was so nervous about meeting his family, but I was even more nervous about what they would say if we told them the real reason we were here. Damian pulled off the main highway and onto a gravel road.Both sides of the driveway were lined with wooden fences. On one side there were horses and on the other side there were cows. "Damian." "Yeah?" "Can we maybe not tell your family why we're really here," I asked timidly. He pressed the brake and brought the truck to a stop, put it in park and looked at me, "Why?" "I really don't want to tell them right now. I mean, I want them to know me first before finding out why we are here or who I am. I mean, what if they get pissed off that we came down here?" "They won't get pissed off. If you don't want to tell them, that's fine. I'll

Damian I grabbed a few of the handguns out of the bag and walked out of the closet back into the major section of the cabin. I placed a gun in the drawers in the kitchen, one on either side of the counter, and placed another one in the drawer on the island. I walked into the living room and placed a gun in the drawer on the coffee table then went into the laundry room and placed a gun in the cabinet above the washing machine. It might be overkill, but you can never be too safe. I walked out of the laundry room and went over to the couch, kicked off my boots, pulled my gun from behind my back, and set it on the coffee table. I laid down on the couch. I felt exhausted even though we had stopped a few times along the way down here. I slept very little last night. Once Ophelia put away clothes, she came out into the living room and sat down in the recliner. I looked over at her and motioned for her to come here. She got up f

OpheliaThe next morning Damian’s alarm on his phone went off at 5:00 am. He got out of bed and walked into the bathroom, took a shower, brushed his teeth, then got dressed. I sat up in bed, resting my head on the headboard, and turned the TV on. My eyes widened and my jaw dropped when I saw Damian walk out of the bathroom wearing his jeans, a gray t-shirt, his boots, and a black cowboy hat.I had never seen him in a cowboy hat before. Damn, he looked good. He saw me staring, and a smirk came across his face, “See something you like?”I bit my bottom lip and nodded my head. He walked over to the side of the bed and hovered over me. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pulled him closer, placing my lips on his. He pulled back and kissed the tip of my nose, “I’ll see you tonight baby girl.”“Do you have to go?” I pouted.He placed another kiss on my forehea

DamianI hated to leave Ophelia alone, but Itold Joe that I would help him around the ranch and that’s what I was going to do. Joe was already up and waiting when I got to the main house. I grabbed a cup of coffee and we sat out on the back porch talking about what he wanted to do today. We were going to be moving the cows from one pasture to another, giving the horse fresh hay, and cleaning out the barn. We were going to be running the fence and checking for any spots that needed to be fixed. We were also going to work on getting a site ready for the next barn he was going to build.A couple of the ranch hands showed up, and we went to the barn to get the horses saddled. I was so excited to see Browning. Joe had been taking good care of him, he looked healthy and happy. I put his bridle on, walked him out of the stall and tied him up. I ran a brush over him and checked for any sores then grabbed the saddle pad

MitchSeveral weeks had passed since I sent Ophelia into hiding. I was confident that she was in a good place and no harm would come to her.I had Jax call the pilot and get the plane ready. I packed a suitcase with enough clothes for the week, then we left the compound and flew to New York City. Later in the day, Noah and Oliver would fly down to New York also for the reopening of Jonol. The renovations were complete, and Liam planned to have a huge reopening party. I was looking forward to spending some time in New York. The house had been so quiet without Ophelia; it reminded me of when she got kidnapped, and that was not something I enjoyed being reminded of. I needed to get out of the house for a while, so I went to handle some business at the office.When we got to New York, Jax and I got into the car that was waiting, while the rest of the security split off into the Knights and followed us. We drove over to t

Liam When I left the club, I knew exactly where I wanted to go. I stopped by my apartment and packed some clothes. I went over to my safe, pulled out all the cash that I had and my passports. I tossed my old phone in the safe and grabbed the other burner phones I had. I put everything in a duffle bag, went downstairs, got in my car, and drove to the airport. I knew I wouldn’t be able to use the private plane, so I used one of the fake IDs that I had to purchase the plane ticket to Russia.I’ll admit, I was a little nervous about going to Russia. Ivankov was pissed after the massacre of his men at the papermill, and Viktor wasn’t too happy about the head he received. But I hoped that they would still help me. After a twelve-hour flight, I arrived in Russia. I got off the plane, grabbed my bags, and walked out of the airport. I called a taxi and gave him the address to Ivankov’s compound.&

Ophelia The next few days seemed to drag on. I had so many thoughts running through my head, but I had no one to talk to about them. With Sam and Noah now dating, I knew I couldn’t talk to her about Liam. I also knew I couldn’t talk to Damian about Liam either. He would flip out if he knew I had talked to Liam. I was so confused. Ever since I talked to Liam, I’ve had knots in my stomach. Part of me believes dad and part of me wants to believe Liam. He had done nothing to hurt me before. While he may not have been as overprotective of me as Noah and Oliver, he had never given me a reason to doubt him. I wanted to sort this out. Neither dad nor Noah was giving me much information, but they never do. It took the accident in Miami to happen before I was even told some of what was going on. They always kept stuff from me. Not that I wanted to be right in the middle of everything going on, but I at
