Jax (Wattpad Version)

New life

Alicia

After the initial shock of my pregnancy subsided, I settled into my new life. Martha and Jimmy checked on me and made sure I took care of myself.

Dr. Hammond was right about the town. When the town residents met me, they banded together to help me. It became a tight-knit community.

Dr. Hammond took care of my medical care, ensuring everything was okay with the pregnancy. Martha took me shopping to buy baby items.

I pushed a cart around a store as we picked out different things.

Martha stopped and turned to me. "I would like to throw you a baby shower."

"Oh, you don't have to do that."

"No, but I want to. I can't wait to hear the pitter-patter of little feet. I miss the sound." Martha beamed.

I couldn't help but smile. "Okay."

"Have you picked out any names?"

"I was thinking Jackson if it's a boy and Elise if it's a girl."

"Those are lovely names. Is there a reason?"

"I met a few people that changed my life. I figure I would honor them."

Martha grinned. "I think that's wonderful."

"Yeah."

We finished shopping and headed home. Martha helped me carry the bags and set them down. Jimmy checked on us as I pulled onesies out of the bag.

"Aren't they adorable?" Martha held up booties to Jimmy.

"Martha, the baby might not wear booties."

"All babies wear booties."

"Not our kids. They prefer bare feet over booties."

"Only because you kept taking them off."

I couldn't help but giggle at Martha and Jimmy. They helped ease the ache I had in my heart.

Jax

Andre and I searched the fucking state for Alicia. I checked with Janie, but Alicia hadn't contacted her. My patience was growing thin.

It didn't help Blake's crew start their shit. I had no issue going after them, which didn't sit well with Richard. He tried to rain me in, but it didn't work.

When I encountered one of Blake's crew, they either learned the hard way or returned in a body bag.

A door flew open as a guy ran out. I kicked it open and fired my shotgun. He dropped to the ground and let out a piercing scream. I pumped another round as I stormed toward him.

The guy flipped onto his back and held out his hand to me. I pointed my gun at his head.

"I swear I don't know where she is!"

"Wrong answer." I pulled the trigger and blew off his hand.

"Ahhhhh!"

I pumped it again and aimed it at his face. "I won't ask you again. You were in the cabin with Blake."

"I swear I don't know!"

I pulled the trigger, and his head exploded on impact. I lowered my gun and walked toward Andre.

"Richard is gonna be pissed."

"I don't give a flying fuck. Blake knows where Alicia is."

"And what if Blake doesn't?"
