Reece's POV

"Autumn I'm outside I need you to come out now Marjorie called me and told me to grab you and get to her house now something is wrong". She said nothing and hung up, but 30 seconds later she got in the passenger seat. 

"Drive," she said with her bat in hand. She looked calm, but I knew she was worried. So was I. We rode in silence. I had a million thoughts flying through my head. Marjorie sounded ok on the phone, but what if it was someone else?  I could tell the longer we were in the car the more Autumn worried.

We finally pull up and see Marjorie's car, but we also see another vehicle that neither of us recognizes. We don't think about it long too worried about what's happening inside. Rushing to the door and walking straight in not bothering to knock.

"Marjorie" We exclaimed in unison.

"In the living room," we heard. Autumn reacting faster than me was already walking into the living room, me right behind her.

"Marjorie what's going on"."Gorgeous are you ok" me and Autumn are now speaking over each other. Marjorie came over and hugged me as soon as I was in the room. "I'm fine my love, but..." she trailed off. "Take your time" I encourage her.

"It's Siobhan" was all she said.

"What about Siobhan, and whose car is in your driveway" Autumn asked now focused on getting answers to why they were summoned here. Backing out of my arms and turning to Autumn.

"The car belongs to a parent from the nursery, Jamie's mom Vivian. She is currently upstairs with Siobhan. And speaking of Siobhan there is something I need to tell you two and I need you to promise not to get too angry. OK," Marjorie waited for an answer.

"I promise gorgeous" I mostly meant it. Marjorie looks back at Autumn. 

"I make no such promises, but I will try my best" Autumn answers.

"Roger has been abusing Siobhan. That is why she is here" Marjorie simply stated looking at us and trying to read our emotions. To no use, we both had straight faces showing no emotions, but we were staring into each other's eyes like we could read each other's minds. 

"Guys?" She said trying to get our attention. Which seems to kinda work. I look back at Marjorie I need more information before I do anything else, but I also know that Autumn is about two seconds from storming out the front door with me right behind her. So there is only one question that really matters right now "Is she ok?"

"She has lots of bruises and wounds and recovery from this is going to be rough physically and mentally, but she will get there. Vivian is upstairs now tending to her. She will be ok." Marjorie explains, and that is all I need to hear. I look over to Autumn and give her a nod, and she heads for the door. "Gorgeous stay here we will be back later" And with that, I head out the door. I can hear Marjorie trying to stop us. It doesn't work. He has to pay. For what he did to Siobhan, to Autumn, to Mia, to our mom. He will finally answer for his crimes.

Autumn's POV

I didn't know what to expect when we got to Marjorie's house, but it certainly wasn't this. When Marjorie said what my father had done to Siobhan my eyes immediately locked with Reece's. I knew he was thinking the same thing as me. He has to pay for what he's done and the time has come. 

As soon as Reece gave me that nod I headed for the car. I could hear Marjorie telling us to stop and to not do something we would regret, but it was no use we pulled out of the driveway and he'd for the house. Riding in silence again, but this time not with worry but rage.

We park and can see his car he's home. I got out a grabbed my bat. Walking up to the door I kicked it in. Reece walks in first. He always puts himself between me and our father, even now even though he knows I can handle myself. Walking in behind Reece I can hear my father yelling on the phone. Guess he hasn't noticed us. I put my hand on Reece's shoulder stopping him from going after him I want to know who he is yelling at, But I have a feeling I already know.
