Annie's POV
Sneaking out of the house was way easier than it should have been. I know of a few places that need to be checked, but all I told the guard was that I was on the hunt for a present for my men. He fell like a sack of potatoes at that. I have a way of convincing people, but I didn't even need to use it. He will probably be fired by the time I get back home.
I get a taxi across town, when I get to the house I want to start with I take a look reading into it more than I probably should. There is no sound coming from the inside of that house. I need a reason to be able to go in there, just to see if it's a real house with real people or a plant.
I know, I should probably tell them that I am here, but those men would just try to stop me. I won't let them. I need to look into this and find the kid who wants to steal my daughter. There is no way that evil sac of a man has taught the kid anything but debauchery and pain. I can't let my baby wind u
Jenny's POVIt's been a long couple of hours, but finally, Jordan, Jas, and Chef are on their way home. They are worried, since they checked all the places, but only one said they saw Annie, and none since then. I know that Annie is one of the best survivors, but I was hoping she wouldn't have to worry about any of that ever again. I look at the wall, the one the kids and I painted today with some splatter art.The men won't care, we can always have it repainted, if we choose, but I needed to let out the anger. I just got my sister back and here she goes, running off into danger. She may just break, after knowing what good feels like, then being tossed to the wolves again...Damn, why'd she go off and do that? I am about to spin out again, when I hear the door open. The first thing I hear is, "You are fucking fired, pack all your bags and leave town. How the hell could you let my wife leave, our wife leave without warning us. Even in times of peace, which
Jas' POVI can tell by the kiss Jenny gives me, that she is not happy with us losing her sister. Granted, she left of her own accord and actively hid it from us. This woman is going to be on an ankle monitor when we get her back. How can this have happened on our watch?I go to the door, not willing to say anything more to Jenny until we catch the bad kid and get our other wife back. I see the way this is going to play out and I don't like it. Maybe everything will be fine, maybe it won't but by the end of the day tomorrow, we will have our women in our house, safe and sound.I look at the road as Jordan drives us to our first place to check out. We have a lot of ground to trace and a lot of things to ask, some likely innocent people. We make our way to the last house we were at. They seemed a little suspicious, earlier, but nothing out of the ordinary for a family that has had it's dinner interuppted.We get to the door, knock and find a very angry looki
Jordan's POVAs we are holding Annie, we realize almost at the same time that we have to get her home to Jenny. I look at Jas and smile. "We got her, bro, now we need to get her home. Our house doctor can meet us there." I look down at Annie as she huddles against Jas. "Are you okay? Did they hurt you?"She shakes her head no, but I can tell that she is hurt, maybe not physically, but she is hurt. Jas kisses her forehead as she starts to hum against his chest. "If you don't want to talk to us, you can just talk to Jenny when we get home. Okay?"She nods against his chest as he picks her up, carrying her to the car. We rush home with her still on his lap. Fuck seatbelts, we aren't putting her down on anything until we get home and the thing we are putting her down on is our bed.When we walk in the door, Jenny is already there, standing in wait for Annie. She follows us up the stairs to where the doctor is waiting for us. The way she is staring at he
Annie's POVI look at the loves of my life, all of them surrounding me as we sit covered in pancakes and syrup. They want me to tell them all about my experience. I want to, I just don't know how much they can handle. I know that Jenny will understand and be there for me. The men, though, they will be so upset and won't stop til they find the kid and the old man. I am more sorry for the woman. She was so scared of them both. I am still scared of them both. I just have to tell them something. I finally realize where I want to start, from the beginning.I look up at my loves, meeting their eyes as I take a deep breath. They have all been waiting for me to stop crying and just tell them what happened while I was there... Trapped"I went to their house trying to find the kid. I don't want my daughter marrying him. Even less so, now. I want you to keep him away from her. You don't understand what he did."My men look at me the anger at him in their eyes rising with each word I say. I need
Jenny's POVThis whole thing has been hard on all of us. The way Annie laid it all out for us, when we were least expecting it. None of us even got to clean up the pancake mess we made. I think about all that she's been through as I get up and head to the shower alone.The men are completely encasing her. The kids wanted to stay with us the night through. They were set to see her, and are now happily settled in the bed with us all. Yes, we had an early to bed and stay in bed kind of day.I plan to start this day off free of drama and try to keep it that way. I mean, just cause I'm married to the two mafia dons doesn't mean I can't go a day without drama, right? I sigh as I turn the water on in the shower, and get out of my clothes. I feel all sticky and I get a feeling we are going to have to wash the sheets and the blankets on the bed today.The water feels amazing on my skin as I step under it. I know today is going to be drama free, the whole thing. At least for me it will be. Lath
Jordan's POVI groan as I wake up feeling Jonah being pulled from my arms. The little man sleeps so well wrapped up in a cuddle. Last night was a lot. The stuff Annie revealed to us has me wanting to kill someone. One specific someone, but he just won't let me catch him. I look up at Jas, he is clothed and has a smile a mile wide on him. Being careful to keep my voice down, I ask, "What's got you all smiles?"He just tilts his head towards the bathroom door and smirks. I take the hint and follow his line of sight. The door is slightly cracked open and Annie is still sound asleep, snoring away. I get up and cover Annie so she still feels wrapped in warmth, then I head to the bathroom as I see Jas heading out of the bedroom with the two kids.When I open the bathroom door, I see Jenny on her knees licking her lips like she just ate a chocolate sunday. "What is it you are enjoying so much?" I ask gently as I close the bathroom door behind me. "Oh, just a tasty breakfast... I can enjoy
Jas' POVBy the time the kids are done with their food, I see Annie making her way down the stairs. She yawns as she scratches her head. I smile as Lilly notices her and runs to her. I'm sure that Jord and Jenny are still busy upstairs. I hope he locked the door to be sure that Annie doesn't get traumatized again.I get my answer as soon as Annie makes her way to the table. "The weirdest thing... the bathroom door was locked when I went to go potty. I used the spare upstairs. Do I want to know why it was locked, Jas?"I smirk as I go up to her and give her a hug. "Nah, just don't worry about it. You feeling better today?"She shakes off the anxiety and looks me in the eyes as she says, "Yeah, a bit. It feels like I lifted a heavy winter coat off my shoulders last night and just left it there on the floor."I kiss her forehead as Lilly makes her way to the bathroom. "You did. That shit is crazy. The fact that we saved you from a life like that, then you wound up back in it for even a f
Lilly's POVMy parent's all seem to have anxiety running off of them. They don't tell me much, but I do know that momma Annie was gone for a while and she seemed scared this morning. I know that Jenny has two boy babies in her belly. I know that Momma Annie has three babies, and two are girls, one is a boy. I don't know how I know, but I just do.I look at my dad, Jas, and he just cuddles me like I am freaking out for no reason. He makes it seem like I am picking up on something that's not there. I'm not. I can feel things, always have been able to. I can tell that they are worried about a man coming to take me away. I don't know why, but I don't think he's as bad as they seem to feel.I just smile when momma Jenny puts her pants back on, making way for Momma Annie to get up there and reveal her babies. They don't know, it seems, but I do. Before the doctor even puts the thing in her, I speak up, "There are three babies, two girls and a boy, in momma Annie."
