"So I tell him get the fuck outta my face before I take that gun and point it at your mama's ass eh?" Alex exclaimed, making the rest of his boys laughed as they cheered and continued drinking.

My attention turned to Eva and the other girl, Julie or whatever the fuck her name was, as they walked back to us without Savanna. I blew out the smoke to my cigar as I squinted my eyes, thinking Savanna would be walking through the drapes within seconds.

When she didn't, that's when instant panic ran through my body.

"Where is Savanna?" I asked, my voice raised to get everybody's attention. They all looked at me and then at the girls who seemed to be more than relaxed. "She got a phone call so she told us not to wait, relax McCann, your girl ain't gonna let lost in a club" Eva responded sharing a look with the girl with her, "Plus, I'm sure there are a bunch of helpful boys ready to guide her back" She laughed before sitting down. I frowned at how confident she was becoming, it made me want to blow her head of and just as I reached for the gun in the waistband of my pants, Ryan pulled me back.

"Not now" he muttered as he glanced at Alex who was trying his hardest not to make it obvious that he was clearly looking.

As I waited for Savanna's return, I grew more impatient and as I stood up, the sound of gunshots followed by a whole lot of screaming, threw me off guard. I looked up instantly, my eyes darting to the exit seeing 4 men pushing past the drapes that separated us from the main VIP section, last to join was another man and Savanna. Her mouth was gagged and her hands seemed to be tied or cuffed behind her back as. The man holding her along with the rest was wearing a black balaclava and held a gun to her head whilst the other arm tightly held her against him.

I looked in to her eyes as they met mine, she was crying as her tears ran through, struggling to get free from the man holding her.

"Yo! What the fuck?" Alex stood up along with his boys as they aimed their guns at the men who were already pointing there's at ours.

"Who the fuck are you?" I raised my voice as they all turned to look at me. I wasn't gonna let a bitch like my brother handle my girl.

"We're the people your brother fucked with" one of them spoke and in all honesty, it sounded as if they were putting on the fake, heavy voice.

"Your leader told me to meet him here to get your shit back, this ain't no damn movie, let the girl go" Alex continued.

"Fuck this" I mumbled as I tucked my gun back in to my pants and began to approach the man holding Savanna. I wasn't scared of these bitches and if they really were bout it, they would have come in here guns blazing.

"Get any closer and I will put a bullet in her head McCann, don't be stupid" He warned as he pushed the gun deeper against her temple as she closed her eyes probably feeling so scared.

My hurt ached at the sight.

I should never have brought her here.

"Look, you want money? We'll give you fucking money, first, you let go of the girl. Ain't nobody tryna get hurt" Ryan spoke up, as I kept my eyes on the man holding Savanna to make sure he didn't try anything.

The men began to laugh, looking at one another before they turned to look at me. "McCann be worried bout a girl?" One of them said, humour in his voice.

"I mean, if my girl looked like this," One of them paused as he approached her, his hand touched her leg before getting closer and closer beneath her skirt, "I would be damn worried too" He muttered. My eyes darkened and my jaw clenched out of anger, seeing his dirty fucking hands on Savanna and she was so damn helpless, she couldn't do anything but endure it.

"Get your fucking hands off her, you wanna handle this? Let's handle this." I said hoarsely, keeping my eyes on the man who touched her.

They looked at one another, as if they weren't prepared for me being so forward but they clearly didn't know who they were fucking with and as they continued to look at one another, I glanced at my boys and within seconds, they each took on the 4 men who were too busy looking at each other to notice anything. That's how I knew they were bitches. I grabbed a hold of the guy holding Savanna, pulling him off of her and as he stumbled back, I pulled off his balaclava to reveal his ugly ass face- in the moment it was so hard to figure it out but I knew I recognised him, I knew I had seen him before. In that moment, I didn't give a fuck who it was, I wanted to end them. I punched his jaw sending him backwards and as he pressed himself against the wall, I could only see red and I continued to beat him. He spat out blood, he groaned in pain, he begged for it to stop but I didn't stop. I didn't stop until I saw his body fall to the floor, not being able to take the pain much longer. As I looked down at his limp body, struggling for air, I felt somebody holding on to me from behind and pushing me against the wall. I looked up to see it was one of the men, his face was also revealed and I knew I had seen him before too. As he tried to hold me against the wall, I grabbed on to him and threw him off of me, he stumbled to the ground as I pulled out my gun, aiming it at him as he held his hands up in surrender. I didn't give a fuck for it as I shot two bullets in to his body, not giving a fuck if he was begging for mercy.

I turned around and grabbed the last guy remaining who Ryan was beating, he was the one who wanted to show off and touch Savanna the way he did and as soon as I took a hold of him, his eyes squeezed shut, fear taking over him.

"You wanted to touch my girl? Huh? Did you enjoy it? Because it's the last fucking time you doing anything again" I said with anger, I threw him to the ground and kicked him in his side as he called out in pain. After I felt he was well and truly in pain, I shot at his head, blood splattering everywhere as his lifeless body laid still.

I took a deep breath as I stepped back, looking up, I saw Savanna who was stop far away, I could see her body was shaking from here as Za untied her hands from behind her back. She cried as she closed her eyes, not wanting to look at the body's on the ground as she waited to be free. I quickly approached her, as soon as I took the gag out of her mouth, letting it fall around her neck and her arms were free, she fell in to my chest as if she was about to lose all of her strength. I wrapped my arms around her small body, kissing her head as she cried in to my chest; I could feel my heart literally aching from how distraught she was. It was like she was reliving her nightmare.

"They're gone" I looked up at Ryan as he was turned facing the couches which were now empty.

"Don't you remember these men? They were the same bitches that came to the warehouse with Alex for the first time, when you got drunk off your ass" Khalil spoke up, and that was when it hit me, that is where I remembered them from.

"Where did Alex go?" I asked, turning to look at the empty couches.

"He left. like I told you he would." Ryan stated and with that, he left.

I looked down at Savanna who was looking down at the body's on the ground, it was like she was in a trance. "Did they hurt you?" I asked her as she stood in front of me, letting me check her body for anything.

She shook her head a no as she struggled to make eye contact with me.

I sighed turning to look at the boys, "Get Cabo to clean this up, he'll know what to do" I told the boys and as they nodded, I took Savanna's hand and led her out.

The club was playing its music again and everybody was dancing once again, Cabo was the owner of this club who was also very familiar with me as I contributed to the making of this property which meant anything that went on, he would keep that shit private.

We left the club and I opened the car door for her and she sat in quietly, I got in to my side and drove away in silence; I didn't expect much else from her at this moment.

"I'm sorry I didn't listen to you, Savanna" I spoke in a low tone as I glanced at her. She looked down at the ground, fiddling with her fingers as she didn't reply. I sighed, placing my hand in hers before locking our fingers together, I knew she wasn't going to say much, she would never say 'I told you so', she was going to be quiet and wait for this nightmare to end,

But I wasn't going to let it end without a fight.
