Serenity | Fragile Hearts

chapter 13- you're safe

trigger warning- abuse.

Aila
I turned around and Blake was right there- anger written across his face. Fear tempted to consume me, but in this moment, I knew I had to be strong for my daughter.

A throbbing point on my head caused me to touch my hand there. As I did, I could feel drops of blood dripping down my face.

"Hi bitch." He seethed as he made his way closer to me. I put my arm around Sofie, shielding her from his wrath.

"Get away from me, Blake." I told him, trying to seem strong.

He laughed evilly. "You think you can just leave? Once a whore, always a whore." He said as he made a move to grab me again.

I put Sofie down and put her behind me. She looked terrified, but I had no other option.

"All I wanted was another chance. But no, you had to go fuck around and be a hoe." he said as he cornered me.

He looked down behind me and grabbed Sofie by her arm, dragging her away from me.

"LET HER GO" I screamed to him as I fought him off her. She was sobbing at this point.

He then backhanded me, but I still didn't let go of Sofie.

"She's my daughter too!" He screamed, trying to rip her away from me.

In the process of tug-o-war with my daughter, he ended up hitting her against the wall accidentally, causing me to freak out completely.

I rushed to her. "Oh my gosh, Sofie, baby are you okay?" I asked her as I tried to get a proper look at her cut.

Her head too had blood on it from a small cut above her eyebrow. I took my sleeve and tried to sap up as much of the cut as possible.

"Mommyyy" she kept crying into me. My heart was broken. I didn't know what to do.

Please god, help me.

Grey
As I got the call, I jumped up from the couch, alarming Charlotte in the process. I grabbed my phone and called Ronan.

"Yes"

"Meet me at my place in 10. I need you to come with me." I told him rapidly.

"Be there in 5." He knew my tone meant business and he didn't ask any questions.

"Uncle Grey, is everything okay?" Charlotte asked me as she came up to me worried.

"Yes char, don't worry. Just something with the girl I saw a couple times."

"Is she going to be okay?" she asked me, concerned laced in her voice.

"She will be."

I'd make sure of that.

The elevator door chimed and opened, and soon Ronan walked out. He was dressed in black and held a bag of medical supplies in hand.

He made his way to his daughter. "Char, stay here for me and do go anywhere. The building is locked and guarded. You're safe. Uncle Grey and I need to handle something, okay? "

She nodded and he gave her a kiss on her head. He then looked to me and nodded. "Let's go."

We both rushed down the elevator and outside was a black Escalade waiting for me. I borrowed one of the company's bullet proof ones and they had it waiting for me outside.

Both of us hopped in and I started speeding towards her apartment. Majority of law enforcement was on payroll by the mafia, so trust me when I saw they knew our cars were off limits.

"Wanna tell me what happened?" Ro asked looking to me with concern.

"Long story short- an abusive ex boyfriend."

Ronan's eyes immediately darkened. He didn't take it lightly when men laid their hands on women either.

"Speed" he said in a dark tone.

Within 7 minutes we were in front of her apartment. We both jumped out of the vehicle, guns drawn, ready.

We entered the lobby, and the sight in front of me is one I'll never forget. Some lanky guy had his hands around Aila, yelling at her. The look on her face made me sick.

She had bruises all over her face now along with streaks of blood everywhere.

Holding onto her leg, you could see her daughter sobbing profusely, whom also had a large cut across her eyebrow.

Ronan and I wasted no time in making our way over to them.

"Hey asshole!" Ronan shouted.

The guy turned around and looked to us as if we were a joke.

"Who the fuck are you?" he snared at us.

"The devil's bitch." I replied. "He got busy dealing with shit so he sent his second in command." I replied snarkily.

I made eye contact with the two girls. The look of relief on their faces alone told me how much they feared this son of a bitch.

The angry pig made his way to me, ready to throw a punch.

Dumbass. Who steps before they throw?

Before he could even lift his arm, I had him face down on the ground with a broken arm, and possibly broken face.

"Don't put your hands on women you fucking coward." I told him as cuffed him up.

I'd be sending some guys later to pick up the trash. He'd be visiting our humble abode- the one and only warehouse.

After I got him settled, I looked up and saw Ronan tending to them. He had Sofie in one arm and Aila in the other- both of them crying into him.

I rushed over to them and pulled her to me. "Shh it's okay, you're safe now." I told to her. Her tiny body wrapped around me and I hugged her back. She was shaking so much.

She looked up to me with teary eyes. "Thank you."

"Of course."
