Koe meets a girl from a bar. They hit it off that night in a smoke-filled bar in north Alabama. Harley comes from a rough life. Koe and Harley start dating a couple of months after that night in a north Alabama bar. She is slowly introduced to some...
We are all talking but that's when I notice Harley look slightly pale.
"Harley, are you okay." I ask as she looks at me with a dazed look.
"I don't feel to good." She says before she bolts downstairs to the bathroom.
"I'll go and check on her." Bunny says as my mom follows behind her.
Harley's POV
I make it to the bathroom before I start to throw up my guts. I can't help cry as I continue to throw up. I hear the door open. I feel someone hold my hair back. I also hear someone turn the sink on and pull a paper towel off the roll.
"You're okay!" Bunnie says as she holds my hair back and rubs soothing circles on my back.
Once I'm done I flush the toilet and take the wet paper towel from Julie. I've not been able to shake this sickness for a few days.
"I've not been feeling good. I can't shake this sickness it's been several days." I say looking at Bunnie with a worried look.
"I hate to say this Harley. Do you think you could be pregnant." Julie says with a concerned look.
That's when I start to think about the attack. If I am pregnant then that means Jackson's the father. I can't control the tears that start to fall. I slowly back away from Bunnie and Julie.
"I need some air. I need to think." I say looking at Bunnie.
She hands me her keys. I take them and bolt out of the bar. I run past Koe and the others. I get in Bunnie's G-Wagon. I head straight to the cabin. Once I get there I run inside and grab my Bronco keys. I leave a note for everyone and head out. I don't know where I'm going but I need to go.
Koe's POV
I come down the stairs to the main area of the bar. When I get down their with Brantley and Hardy she runs past us. I'm completely confused as to what's going.
"Harley! What's going on?" I ask as I follow behind her.
Before I can stop her she's in Bunnie's G-Wagon pulling off. I head back inside to get my keys. I'm stopped before I can go after her.
"Koe, I think she needs some time." My mom says as she puts a hand on my shoulder.
"What happened?" I ask looking at her.
Before she can say anything everybody is looking at Bunnie and my mom. We all have a collective look of worry on our face.
"She been sick for a couple days. I asked if she could possibly be pregnant. That's when she said she need some air. She freaked out little bit." My mom says looking at me.
"If she's pregnant that means it's his. That son of a bitch!" I say as I slam my hand down on the counter.
"I think I know where she may go." Brantley says looking over at all of us.
"Why don't we all go back to the cabin? Brantley, can find her and bring her back." Amber says as she puts a hand on my back.
"I'll bring her back brother." Brantley says giving me a reassuring look.
I nod my head. We all head out of the bar and Brantley locks up. We all make the hour drive back to the cabin. Amber drives Jelly and Bunnie back to the cabin. Once we pull up I see Bunnie's car parked but Harley's Bronco is gone. We all head inside Dutches runs up to me with confused look. We all change and hangout in the living room. We wait for Brantley to bring Harley back. We are all on edge just waiting.
Brantley's POV
Once everyone leaves the bar I lock up. I get on my motorcycle and head to the one spot I know Harley would go to think.
Harley's POV
I go to the drugstore and buy a couple pregnancy tests. Once I pay I go into the bathroom to take them. I wait for the results and I feel like it's the longest 3 minutes of my life. I eventually get the nerve to flip them over. Once I see the results I don't know what to think. All four of them say positive.

I can't help but cry. I can't ask Koe to be apart of this. I just can't believe this. I put the test in my purse and head back out to my car. I drive to the one place I know I can be alone. I pull up to the hunting camp that Brantley showed me. I take the key out of my purse and walk up to front door.

I walk in to the hunting cabin and change into pajamas. I start a fire in the fire place and sit on the couch. My phone keeps blowing up. I just turn it off. That's when I realize I'm completely alone with my thoughts. I just cry. I cry for the fact that Jackson raped me. I cry because the one good man that loves me isn't the father. I cry for this baby that won't ever know his real father. I cry for the fact that this baby won't have loving grandparents. I cry because he finally got what he wanted. He got me completely broken beyond recognition. I am brought out of my thinking by the sound of a motorcycle pulling up. That means only one thing Brantley is come to find me. I hear his heavy boots walk up the front steps. The door is unlocked and in walks Brantley. He doesn't say anything. He just walks over to me and sits next to me. He pulls me into a hug. I just breakdown crying. He lets me cry for a little bit before saying anything.
"Harley, what's going on?" Brantley finally asks.
I just pick up my bag and hand him the pregnancy tests. When he sees them he just hugs me a little tighter.
"Brantley, he got what he wanted finally. He will always be apart of me. It's not just the scars and the brand on my side. I'm pregnant with his baby. I just am terrified that he'll get this baby. I'll die before it happens. Then poor Koe. He's in the middle of my messed up life. I can't ask him to raise this baby." I say with tears in my eyes.
"Harley, listen to me and listen carefully. Koe, loves you. When you ran out of the bar he looked ready to burn the world down to find you. I know this isn't how you planned having a baby. Koe, just wants you to be loved, safe, and protected. I have I feeling he's going to want the same for this baby. You have a whole ass village behind you. I can promise you that Jackson will not take you're baby. If he tries he'll have to go through all of us. Why don't we get you back to everyone? I know none of them are going to sleep until you're home with them." Brantley says as he wipes my tears.
I nod my head as he gets up and puts the fire out. I grab my stuff and head to my car. Brantley takes my keys from me.
"I'll drive you back. I'm just going to put my bike in the barn and lock up." He says as he opens my passenger door and hands me a blanket.
He then puts the bike in the barn and locks up. Once everything is done we head for my Aunt's cabin.
