A Soft spot for an Angel

Chapter 10 Dax

"So, are you going to tell me who took Kiara?" I asked, watching Emaly and Drew share glances. "Hello? Hey, assholes answer me!"

"Boss," Drew cleared his throat. "Kiara's ex Braxton was the one who took her"

Who's Braxton? "Who the fuck are you talking about? I have never heard anything about this Braxton"

Emaly’s head hung low to avoid any eye contact. "He was...he was Kiara's first love. He's gonna try to make her fall in love with him again"

"And you didn't stop him, Em?" I shouted in her face.

Drew pushed Emaly aside protecting her from me. "She tried, boss. She even ended up hurt. We will get Kiara back, but once we do, I...I think you need to keep your distance "

"Why should I? How the fuck is any of this my fault?"

"I didn't say it was your fault, boss. But Kiara...she's gonna need someone to be there for her in order to recover "

I understood what he was trying to say. "And neither of you think I'm the person to help her." They shared a glance. "Fuck both of you "

"Boss, you and Kiara aren't a couple. You might never be a couple, since you can't seem to admit that you have feelings for her"

Did I have feelings for Kiara? Yes, she was different than the rest of the girls I fucked. But I wasn't sure I was ready to give her what she needed. 'Drew, I'm confused about how I feel. But I'm not confused about the fact I'm going to rescue Kiara. Are you with me?"

A knock on the door caught our attention. Jackson stood in the doorway with a girl hanging from his arm. 'Hey, boss. Hey, Drew and....who is this?" He asked pointing to Emaly. "Doesn't matter. This sexy girl is Charlotte "

"Hey," Charlotte said without a care. "Jackson, are we going to fuck or not?"

"Hang on, baby," he replied then looked at each of us. "Thought I'd come by to check on you, boss"

"Yeah, I'm glad you came. The slut can go"

Charlotte's face read of disgust. "Slut? Slut? Who the fuck do you think you're talking to, asshole!"

Jackson stepped in between us, holding Charlotte by her tiny waist. 'Baby, boss didn't mean that. Come on, let's go fuck"

"Jackson," I called out as he headed for the door. "Dude, next time don't bring a pity fuck with you. We'll need your help soon. Be sure to have your phone with you "

"Sure, sure thing. Ok, I'm gone. Charlotte needs a good fucking"

Jackson left the room, leaving me with Emaly and Drew who were talking amongst themselves. I struggled to get out of the hospital bed but soon managed to stand on my feet. Then I tore the needle from my hand, little drops of blood dropped on my toes. "OK, now that thats taken care of, we need a plan. Any ideas, Drew? Emaly?"

"Boss," Drew sighed. "You shouldn't be out of bed. Emaly and I can solve this ourselves "

"I have an idea," Emaly intervened. "If we find Kiara's mom, we'll find Braxton. Theyre working together, I'm sure of it"

"And how do we find Kiara's mom?" I wondered.

"Well, she lives in the streets. There are lots of places she could be, but if we split up...."

"What does she look like? Have either of you seen her?"

"I have," Emaly said raising her left hand. "She's disheveled and smells like urine"

"Sounds like everyone who's homeless," Drew said.

"That might be true. But she'll have one thing the rest of the homeless won't. She'll have Braxton by her side. Drew and I will be able to spot him right away"
