Ok I'm going to have to tell Scarlett to stop feeding me drinks next time, my head feels like I've been hit with a bat. I groan as I try to reach out to see if Derek is next to me, but I can't move my hands. I slowly open my eyes, but I feel really dizzy"Derek?" I whisper as I close my eyes again
"Sarah? You awake? Thank god." I hear his voice but it sounds distant
"What's going on?" I ask
"Don't worry little one I'm going to protect you, I'll get you out of here I promise."
"Where are you?" I ask as I open my eyes again, but it's too dark to make anything out, I'm so confused.
"I'm right here, just stay calm." He replies
"I don't understand, why can't I move my hands?" I shake my head but that makes me dizzy and I fall back hitting my head on the wall and I gasp at how much it hurts
"Do you remember what happened after we left Scars?" He asks, I try to think, but that hurts too
"I don't remember leaving, last I remember we were dancing. Did I drink too much?"
"No, we were followed, I crashed the bike, you hit your head, even with the helmet on your head was bleeding, but I didn't get chance to look before..." he trails off and I'm afraid of what he's about to say next, but I already know
"We've been kidnapped." I try to stay strong but I can't fight the tears, my body shaking with fear
"Don't worry, I'll keep you safe and we'll get out of here, I promise Sarah." He replies
"Are you hurt? I can't see you." I ask
"My leg hurts a little, but I'm fine, I'm worried about you." He sighs. I hear movement and look to my right as I hear doors creaking and then footsteps
"Don't say anything Sarah, just stay quiet and I'll get us out." He rushes and then I hear the sound of bolts sliding before the door opens letting in the light of the hall.
"Look who finally woke up, call boss." A deep gravely voice says, I see the silhouette of a man in the doorway but the light behind him blinds me from making out any details. When he turns the lights above me on I duck my head down and close my eyes as a wave of pain feels like it's penetrating my skull, but I need to see Derek, to know that he's ok. I blink to adjust and slowly look around the room
"Derek, oh my god." I gasp, he's chained up, hanging from a hook so his feet are just out of reach of the floor, he's been stripped to just his jeans and I take a second to check my clothing is still intact. Wishing I hadn't let Scarlett convince me to wear this now. His left foot and ankle look swollen, I can't tell if his leg is hurt too under the jeans and there's some bruising to his face.
"Darling, I was so worried." I look back to the door to find my ex husband rushing towards me, surgical gloves on and med bag on his shoulder. My blood boils with anger, this is all his fault. He's hurt me yet again, he's hurt the man I love, the only man to ever take care of me.
"What the fuck Charles!?" I yell as he kneels in front of me
"Now you know how I feel about that language coming out of your mouth. I told them not to hurt you, but I'll soon have you fixed up." He smiles as he opens the bag. I look over his shoulder at Derek, even in this mess he has a smirk on his face from me saying that word.
"You need to let us go Charles. You'll only make it worse, if we leave now I won't tell anyone about this." I say as he wipes blood from the side of my head
"Come now darling, I'll get you cleaned up, I have clean clothes for you, we'll collect our son and be home for lunch." He has lost his mind, he's smiling like I'm a normal patient in his clinic with a boo boo, not his ex wife being held hostage in some disgusting cell. I look to Derek again and he mouths 'let him fix you' I roll my eyes, it's his foot I'm worried about, my head will be fine. Rolling my eyes was probably a bad idea as a wave of dizziness hits
"Oh darling you need to rest, is there somewhere more comfortable I can take her?" He asks the big guy standing in the doorway, now I get a good look at him he's huge, with muscle on muscle, so my ex husband has hired a bunch of brutes to kidnap me, but then why not just me? Why didn't they leave Derek behind and just take me?
"Boss'll be here in a minute." Now I recognise the thick Boston accent. If Charles isn't who they were calling boss then who is?
"Hold still I need to numb the area so I can suture it. I've got Vicodin in my bag, then you can rest." Charles smiles. I do as Derek said and let Charles 'fix me' even though I want to push him away and punch him. I've never punched anyone in my life but I sure would give it a go now.
At least I know Tobias is safe, these thugs wouldn't stand a chance of getting to him safe in Cordelias house. I can't let Charles get to him, I don't know what's going to happen and how I will get out of this, but if anything happens to me I know my club family will take care of him, give him the happy upbringing I never seemed to be able to give.
"Get the lady a chair, I think this might take a while." I look up and see Frank Sullivan, the Boston gangster Circuit found Charles was supplying drugs to. This is worse than I thought.
