Jade's POV:

Waking up, again, McCoy was sitting close to me, with his hand on my stomach. "What are you planning, McCoy?" I brought the blankets up to cocoon me. "Whatever it is, just leave me out of it. I won't bother you. I'll make sure you are never bothered again. Just don't hurt us, please."

"Us. Such a simple word, yet so complex. You'll be happy to know that my attorney has updated me on my divorce proceedings. It seems that we will be able to be wed in ten days. Money really does do wonders." McCoy started circling the bed, his hands clasped behind his back. I want you to tell me when you found out about our child."

Every time he spouted on about my baby being his, I wished I could throw up on his shoes. Who knows, maybe it would happen. It looked like I was going to have to lie in order to keep myself and my child alive longer than expected. I looked downward. I didn't want to look him in the eyes, and spoke, "When you left me for dead, they told me at the hospital after I woke up."

"I like my women strong. You, Jade, are a fighter. That means our child will be a fighter too. At least I don't have to worry about drugging you. You'll do everything I ask to make sure our little one survives. You will have free reign of the house here in Hamilton. Someone will always be watching you though. So do not try and contact anyone. I can guarantee they will die." McCoy started to get up from the bed, then stopped himself. "Also, it seems a call was made from the plane while we were in flight. However, when we traced it, the number was one that had been disconnected. Did you forget your friend's number? It's a shame really. Oh well. I'll make our wedding arrangements for next week. It will be beautiful. Ten days. Design them how you see fit."

What?! A wedding? To McCoy? And Hamilton? I thought he mentioned Huntly. Take breaths, Jade. Counter him. "Not without a pre-nup."

"I beg your pardon?"

"We can't get married without a pre-nup, and I need my attorney in order to draw up the papers on my end." Law was something I was well versed in. After having to live most of my life with just my brother, we used our attorney a lot. We used to try and trip him up with games, and what-if scenarios. He finally just sat us down and gave us a talk about what our rights were, what we could and could not get away with. I found it informative, where my brother found the subject a complete bore. "Franklin must be present with documents for me to sign. I don't care what country we are in."

He rushed back in front of me. I couldn't help but flatten myself up against the bed. "You will never get away from me. What's yours is mine, and what is mine is yours. The wedding is in ten days. Start planning my beautiful rose."

I waited for him to leave before breaking down in tears. I was finally happy. I had found happiness, and things were getting even better. I was re-learning about myself, and what it meant to have fun. My brother, even though he was a jerk, was dead, the asshole, Rocky, was dead, my parents were dead... and one way or another, I would make sure McCoy, and Hendricks would be dead as well.

My hope at the moment was that my boys were on the way to recue us, then I never wanted to leave their arms again. They knew where we were headed, so I kept wishing in my head that they were going to bust the door down.
