Trident Kings

Chapter 26

"Here is her medicine," Henry said as he took the medicine from Ethan then handed it over to John, Jason, and Gabriel.

"Thanks," John said as he took it up the stairs. "Hey Sweetheart, it's time to wake and take some medicine," He whispered as he sat on the edge of the bed and placed her medicine and juice on the nightstand. "Come on Sweetheart, just wake up enough to take your medicine and then you can go back to sleep, okay?"

She moaned and tried to snuggle back into the pillows. "No wanna," She mumbled as she tried to ignore the pain and go back to sleep.

"I know but the medicine will help," He said as he pushed her hair out of her face. "Come on, be a good girl and sit up long enough to take your medicine."

She huffed and whined as she sat up, "You're mean," she pouted and he smiled.

"I know," he chuckled, "but it's for your own good. Now take this." He handed her a cup of dark orangish red liquid. She drank it and made a nasty face. "Here is some juice to wash it down." He twisted the cap off and handed her the small bottle of apple juice. She guzzled the juice then handed it back to him. "Now try and get some more sleep Sweetheart."

"I think that juice went bad," She mumbled while shaking her head.

"What?" John asked.

"John..." she mumbled as she fell back onto the bed and started convulsing while white stuff started coming out of her mouth.

"JASON! GABRIEL! CALL DOC AND 911 NOW!!!!!" John shouted as he turned her to her side while trying to remain calm.

"What the fuck!" Gabriel gasped as they rushed up the room. "What happened?"

"I don't know, she took the medicine then drank her juice and she said the juice tasted like it went bad and then this," John said as he tried to scoop some of the stuff out of her mouth.

"Ambulance is on its way," Henry said as he held the phone to his ear. "She is still convulsing. They think she might have been poisoned."

"WHAT?" John, Jason, and Gabriel said in unison.

"Move the fuck out of my way," Doc growled as he shoved past them. "Fucking hell," he mumbled as he scooped up some of the white stuff and put it on a glove. He tilted her over some more then shoved his finger down her mouth, "Come on Little One throw it all up for me," he said softly not liking how limp she was. "Come on, throw it up please." Just then her body started shaking. "Grab a trash can NOW!" he shouted as Henry placed an empty on underneath her just in time for her throw up everything in her body. "Oh thank fuck," Doc Warren sighed in relief as she burst into tears. "Get it all out, that's it," he rubbed her back as she threw up more. "Fuck," He sighed as her eyes rolled back and she went unconscious.

"They are here," Henry said as he moved out of the way as paramedics rushed into the room.

"I'll ride with her," Doc Warren said as he started talking to them in medical terms. "She was most definitely poisoned. Where's the stuff she took?" Henry picked up the medicine cup and empty apple juice bottle then dropped it into an open bag Doc held.

The men growled as they watched Doc rush out of the room with their love. "Who the fuck?" Jason growled as he clenched and unclenched his fists repeatedly while trying to calm down.

"I have no idea," Gabriel shook his head. "Who all was in our house today?"

"Us, Henry, Ethan, and the rest of our security," John whispered.

"Why would anyone from our staff hurt her?" Jason asked.

"We are interrogating everyone NOW," John growled as he flipped over the nightstand.

"WHAT THE FUCK ETHAN!" They heard Henry shout from the kitchen. They looked at one another then rushed down the stairs and into the kitchen where they saw Henry pointing a gun at Ethan who had an evil smirk on his face.

"What?" They asked in unison.

"He was throwing a box of rat poison away as I came in here," Henry glared at him. "Why Ethan?"

"Because you were more focused on her then me," He glared dropping the fake smile on his face. "You were at her every request, hell you were there for her before she even knew what she wanted."

"She's the boss' love," Henry shook his head. "Of course, I would be there for her. I have to protect her, you are supposed to protect her as well."

"You are supposed to be with me!" Ethan shouted. "Instead you are always with HER! If I didn't know you so well I would think you were in love with her instead of me! If I got rid of her then they would fall apart and you would come back to me."

"So it wasn't just her you were after?" Henry asked, "You were trying to get to the bosses as well." Henry shook his head and turned to John, Jason, and Gabriel. He looked back at Ethan then shot him in the head. "I'm sorry Bosses I didn't know, I swear."
