Medicine Man (Chibs Telford)

Next day..
I left my house early today to meet up at the SAMCRO clubhouse. Ever since what happened yesturday, my head has been all over the place. A sense of betrayal was embedded in my mind and i couldn't help but feel angry. Angry at myself for letting things get to far and at those who took my trust and fucked it up.
In fact, i don't even think i slept last night. After Joseph left i sat in the living room on high alert. He knows where i live, he knows where I've been, and knows what I've done. I have to take him down before bodies start dropping.

SAMCRO clubhouse...

I pulled up in my black mustang and parked aross the parking lot. It seemed that most of the members where here. I sighed and slowly got out the car. Once i made my way into the clubhouse, a few glanced my way but i simply walked to the bar to get a quick shot. Gemma suddenly appeared next to me. Her expression was nonchalant as i simply took a shot and stared at the glass. "Hello Gemma." I simply said pouring another shot of whiskey. "You gonna tell me where you been or better yet what were you doing in Nevada?" I winced at her tone. Shit Clay was right! Welp its now or never. I reluctantly sighed and turned to face her. She gave me an icy glare, waiting for me to answer. Her eyes were silently judging me. Before i could speak Jax came over. His expression was serious. "Chapel finna start. Clay's ready for you." I nodded while Gemma looked confused as i got up off my stool. "Why do they need you in the chapel?" I ignored her and started to walk with Jax to the chapel. "Evie?!" Gemma's tone was filled with worry and a hint of anger. I sighed and reluctantly answered, "It's a long story Gem, I'll tell you later." And with that me and Jax walked into the chapel. The members were already seated in their designated spots. I realized Chibs is here. I guess Jax filled him in.

Flashback...earlier (6:00am)
There was a constant banging on my door. I got up slowly and walked to the door. I held my glock in my hand tightly by my side. Once i got to the door, i exhaled and enhaled. Opening the door quickly, i raised my gun up and pointed it at the person at the door. He immediately raised his hands up in surrender. "Woah love its just me." Filip said sounding alarmed at being held at gun point. I gasped and put the gun down and let him in. "Jesus Filip!" Once he was in the house, i shut the door behind him. He turned towards me and before he could say anything, i leaped into him arms and hugged him. Chibs was a little taken back but hugged me back none the less. "Im so glad your okay." I whispered burying my face in his neck. He chuckled, "I missed ye too love." I smiled a little. We held eachother in silence. "Jax told me what happened Evie." I tensed up and pulled away from him to look at his face. He was serious. I turned away and walked into the living room. Chibs was right behind me. We sat next to eachother. In front of us was the coffee table that had the pictures and note Joseph sent. "I-i didn't want you to be involved Filip." "Evie i am being targeted whether me or you like it. I have to get involved." I shook my head, " you don't understand Filip he found me again. He made me kill one of my men..who i trusted. Made him into a rat! Took all of my guns from the warehouse and then burnt it to the ground-". Chibs interrupted me. "Who was it Evie?" "His name is Joseph O'Connor but he goes by the name of Joe." "What is he to you?" I shook my head as painful memories came flooding into mind. Tears began to fill my eyes. Filip noticed and held my hand in his. "He- he broke into my house Filip." I spoke quietly. His eyes filled with anger as his body tensed up. "He was here!" Chibs yelled and hot up abruptly. He began to walk around the house searching every room. I stood up as well as he walked down the hallway. "Chibs he's not here." At the sound of my voice, Chibs turned around and started walking back over. I casted my eyes down to my shoes. "He left after-" Chibs gently tilted my head up so that i can look him in the eyes. He placed a hand on my cheek, his expression was filled with a mixture or concern and anger. "Did he hurt you?" Before i could answer his eyes casted down to my neck and say a small scar that has a trail of dried blood. His fingers gently graced it causing me to flinch. I removed his hand and sighed. "It's nothing. He- he told me that if i dont get rid of you then i will have to bury another body." Chibs eyes glazed with anger again. "So that piece of shite thinks he's gonna get what's mine! He's got another thing coming Evangeline." I blushed as he called my his. "What else did he say." Filip asked sternly. I shook my head. "Look Filip can we not talk about this any more. Its been a long night and i would lile to at least get an hour of sleep before i meet up at SAMCRO for the meeting." Chibs sighed accepting my wishes. "Alright love. You want me to stay for a while." We both walked to the door. "No its okay Filip. I can handle myself." I gave him a comforting smile as he gave me a worried expression. We faced eachother once we got to the door. "I know ye can i just-" He cut himself off and i knew where he was getting at. I stepped towards him and pecked him lips. "You don't want me to get hurt. I get it Filip but don't worry about me. I know what I'm doing." "Evangeline I'm a Christian...i worry about everything love. And when it comes to you i worry even more....but i understand." He said pulling me into a hug. I welcomed it and embraced his warm body against mine. It was short lived when he pulled away and kissed my forehead. "See you at chapel love." I nodded and soon after Chibs left. I walked back to the living room and layed on the couch. I placed my gun on the table and soon after found myself falling asleep.

Flashback over...

I was brought out of my thoughts as Clay slamed the gavel on the table to start the meeting. "Alright chapel is in session, we are all here to do one thing and one thing thing only. And that is to help Miss Monroe here." At the sound of my name, i felt eyes shift me. Jax gave me a comforting smile. "As you know Evie's warehouse was burned down yesturday by a bomb. Turns out one of her men was a rat and was involved in the guns being missing. Apparently the now dead rat was working for someone. Somebody that Evie knew. Uh Evie you care to elaborate?" Jax asked me. Now the attention was on me again. I took a deep breath and exhaled. "His name is Joseph O'Connor or as he likes to be known as is Joe." I pulled out a folder and tossed it to the middle of the table. Jax grabbed it and looked through it. "Age 36, no children, lives in Charming, divorced, the list goes on. " "why is he after you though??" Bobby asked. I sighed, "Because he's...my ex husband. We've been married for 3 years. There was love at the beginning but after he lost his job as a police officer, the abuse began. It was mostly physical." "Why didn't you leave sooner?" Juice asked. "At our last year of marriage, i got pregnant. I was 6 months pregnant with a baby girl. Joe thought i was cheating so be beat me and raped me. I got the scars to prove it." I stood up and lifted my shirt. Under my breast were two long scars and there was another one on my side. Some of the guys gasped while others looked on in anger. I noticed Filip balled his fist in anger but his face was expressionless.

I shook my head and pulled my shirt down. "After i lost my baby, i knew i had to get away. That's when i moved to Stockton. He didn't want anything to do with me after the divorce but now after 3 more years he's been targeting me, my men, and now Chibs. He- he came to my house last night." A few leaned foward listening attentively. "Told me that he wanted me back or i will be burying someone else. Told me to get rid of Chibs. He even took pictures of what happened in Nevada." "So how do we catch this prick?" Clay asked after a moment of silence as everyone processed the information. I smirked, "Hector planted a tracking device on his car. Should give me a current location tonight." " well that saves us time. All we need to do is snatch and grab." "When do you want to do this and what do you want us to do when we get him?" "As soon as possible outside of Charming and when you get him....hes all mine. I need to know where my guns are." I pulled out two fairly large envelopes of money and placed them on the table. "3k now and i will get the rest when you finish." Clay nodded in agreement. " All in favor for helping Miss Monroe?" All hands went up immediately. "It seems we have a deal Evie." "Great, I'll tell Hector to send you his location when he found it." Soon after, Clay dismissed the meeting and everyone dispersed out the room. Chibs haven't said anything to me since this morning. I guess I'll just give him some space. Gemma immediately came over and questioned me. To sum it up, i told her everything and she was calm about it surprisingly. She's been really supportive. This was the first time i told anyone about my marriage and what happened with my baby. I just hope we find Joe soon before someone ends up dead.
