Carly's Ride (Burning Knights MC) || Watty's 2019

Chapter 22 - Slash

As soon as Carly left Ruthie's, Ruthie gave me a call and explained what happened. I'd been sitting in the club with my brothers shooting shit when it happened. As soon as I heard the words out of Ruthie's mouth, I jumped to my feet and ran outside to my bike. My brothers, seeing the way I was, followed behind to their own bikes, and we all ripped out of the compound at high speed, heading to Jay's daycare.

breaking every speed limit possible, we arrived at the daycare in no time. I screech to a halt next to Carly's car, nearly crashing into its side. As I dismount my bike, I hear running. Looking up I see Carly's blonde hair waving freely in the wind as she runs towards her beat-up car. She raises her head and my eyes lock with hers, tears flowing freely down her face. Walking towards her quickly I see her face change, and before I know it she's dropping to the ground and screaming.

I stop my walk and sprint to her, grabbing her as she drops to the ground, the scream dying as she faints in my arms, her body hanging limp.
"CARLY! BABY WAKE UP!" I scream, shaking her roughly to try and wake her, fear taking over my entire body as her eyes stay closed.
I feel a strong hand grab my shoulder and my head whips up, staring up at my brother and President.

"Stay calm mate, we need to get her to the compound before the cops are called! Now get your girl and get safe. Your brothers will bring your bike back to the compound and we'll sort whatever shit is going down." Says Pres, nodding his head to my brothers who are creating a wall, blocking our spectacle from the public.
As I go to stand, Carly in my arms, Pres speaks again. "She's not like the whores you fuck at the clubhouse. You care, we all see it. And that's enough for us. She's a part of us, just like you are brother."

This is why I love my brothers, this is why I stay and do what I do. Why I'm loyal to the bone. I know that no matter what, my Pres said, there's no lie. Just truth, support, and loyalty.
I nod again, adjusting Carly in my arms as I stand straight and head towards her car. I shout back at my brothers as one of the Probies opens Carly's passenger door. "It was her fucking ex! He took Jay! I want information on this piece of shit by the time I get to the compound!" I yell, making sure Carly is strapped in by her belt securely before turning around to face my brothers and closing the passenger door behind me. "I want his fucking head!" I growl out, watching all my brothers nodding, my Pres inclines his head, and just like that, everyone's moving out.

I run around to the driver's side and jump in, slamming the door shut. The junker is still running, so I chuck the gearstick in reverse and back out. Pulling a K-turn, I speed out of the daycare, heading to the compound. And once I know Carly is safe with my brothers, in my compound, I was going to find that piece of shit and get Jay back. And if one hair is harmed on that boy's head, I'll rip that piece if
shit limb from limb!

In record time, we arrive at the club, exiting the car, I walk around to Carly's side and open the door. She stirs, her eyes blinking open as she adjusts herself in the seat, slowly looking around, her eyes bloodshot and hazy. "J-Jay..." she whispers, her body beginning to shake as the present catches up with her.

I kneel down, taking her hand in mine. Her eyes shoot to mine with fear, her hand clasping mine tightly. "Baby... We'll get him back, I promise. But I need you to stay calm, I need you strong, if not for yourself, for Jay" She nods and uses her free hand to wipe a stray tear away. "Now come inside baby," 

Walking into the compound takes a minute, but once in, I lead Carly to the couch in the corner. She sits quietly, staring ahead with a dead stare. I rub at my chest, a pain stabbing at my heart as I watch her literally break in front of me. I've never experienced something like this before... And it fucking sucks. 

I feel a kick at the back of my knee, making me buckle slightly. I turn to see Prez nodding for me to sit beside Carly. I give him a chin lift and sit down beside Carly, pulling her to my side. I wrap my arm around her shoulder, hugging her close. "It's going to be okay baby..." I whisper, planting a chaste kiss on top of her head.
