So This Is Love

Chapter Eight

Cherry lifted Finn's arm, replacing herself with her pillow so he would sleep longer. She grabbed his shirt pulling it on Cherry headed down to the kitchen to make breakfast for Finn. Bo and Sammy and left, saying they were going out to breakfast. Still, Cherry figured they wanted to do something else, saying they would talk about another sleepover once things with Finns Omega dad had settled down.

She reached the kitchen hoping Brad would still be asleep, and she wouldn't have to deal with him. The coast was clear when she peeked her head around the corner. Cherry headed to the pantry, grabbed the coffee and the filters to start a pot of coffee, grabbed her pills, and poured one into her hand. Cherry hadn't had a seizure in over a month. Finn figured she was getting all the physical contact she needed, and her body had adjusted. However, Champ still thought she should take the medication in case that wasn't why.

Cherry pulled the eggs and bacon from the fridge before deciding she was going to make pancakes. She headed back to the pantry, drawing what she needed out and set to work, making her Alpha breakfast.

She was busy frying the bacon. She didn't notice the mn enter the kitchen until his arms snaked around her waist.

"Please don't touch me," Cherry said as she turned off the burned and attempted to move away from Brad and the hot pan in case anything escalated.,

"Don't be like that; you're pure you have to do as I say," Brad purred, tightening his grip on her waist.

"No, I don't, I am not yours, and you will not intimidate me," Cherry snapped back.

She was sick of everyone assuming she was theirs to play with, Finn always told her it was up to her if she wanted the attention. Brad pushed her back against the counter, leaned in close and licked from her collar bone to her temple. Cherry shook with fear and anger. She knew what was coming next. It wasn't the first time she would be raped by another Omega trying to establish their dominance over her.

Brad growled and flipped Cherry around, lifting her shirt and ripping off her panties.

"Please, stop, I don't wanna do this. I'm not yours," Cherry said, straining to keep him out.

"To bad little bitch, you will know your place," Brad hissed in Cherry's ear.

Cherry took a deep breath and pushed off the counter with all she strengthen. Luckily the Omega had released one of his hands to pump his tiny cock; when she pushed back, it caused him to fall back into the island. Cherry took off, letting her panties fall off instead of pulling them up. She didn't want Brad to catch her. She slammed into Finn as he came running down the stairs, smelling Cherrys destress, followed by his father coming from his side of the house. Brad stopped short of the stairs spotting Cherry sobbing in her Alpha's arms.

"What did you do?" Champ growled at his ex-Omega. He charged forward, grabbing Brad by the throat and pressing him against the wall.

"I was just showing Cherry her place was all," Brad replied sweetly.

Cherry growled, "I know my place, and that's at Finn's side," she snapped, wiping the tears from her eyes.

Finn smirked and set Cherry down so they could walk to the bottom step, Brad glared at her, he was head Omega, not some whiney Prue who couldn't control her emotions and stunk up the house. Champ put pressure on Brad's throat, shutting him up.

'You are nothing in this house, Cherry will always be above you, she is my daughter and if you look at her the wrong way or lay a hand on her in any way, So help me, Brad they will never find your body," Champ yelled, in his face making his point by pushing Brad back against the wall before walking over to Cherry to make sure she was alright.

"Thank you, Alpha. I was making breakfast the coffee should be.." Cherry stopped and fell to the ground, convulsing.

"Shit, it was the stress," Finn said, making sure Cherry didn't hit her head on the hard tile.

"What is wrong with her?" Brad asked, stepping closer his voice horse he rubbed at his throat.

Finn growled and profound long warning for him to back off, Champ placed a hand on his shoulder to calm him. Finn didn't need to worry about the other Omega.

"I gotta take her to hospital, this one lasting longer," Finn said, looking up at his father with tears in his eyes.

Champ nodded went to grab his phone and keys while Finn gathered Cherry up in his arms, she finally stopped seizing only to have it start up again.

"Dad, hurry up," Finn yelled, trying to keep his voice calm he wasn't sure if Cherry could hear him.

"Finnley, I didn't," Bad started to say.

"Stay the fuck away from her," Finn growled, holding Cherry tight to his chest and headed towards the door.

Finn whispered to Cherry the whole ride to the hospital, telling her she was safe and loved, he would never let anything happen to her ever. He was so sorry that he didn't protect her that morning and would do so in the future.

When they got to the hospital, the nurse took Cherry back right away, telling Finn and his father to wait, and they would come and get them when they were ready. He nodded, kissed Cherry on the head, and paced the waiting room.

"I never thought he would go after her, I am so sorry," Champ said, stopping Finn by grabbing his arm.

"It's not your fault, Dad," Finn replied, placing his hand over his fathers, letting him know that he didn't blame him.

It didn't take long for the nurse to come back out and get Finn saying that Cherry was okay and asking for him. He smiled, smelling her scent; it was calm.

"Hey baby," Finn smiled, rushing to be closer to her. He laced his fingers in hers, lifting her fingers to his mouth and kissing each one.

"I'm okay," Cherry said weakly "I'm a little sore,"

"She can go home soon; we can't keep her safe," the nurse said to make a sad face.

Finn nodded, saying he understood and was ready when they wanted to release her. The nurse nodded and said the doctor would be back to talk soon, he leaned in and kissed her on the forehead.

"It's okay, I guess we were wrong. I am broken," Cherry said, her voice breaking as tears flooded her eyes.

Finn sighed, gathered her up in his arms, kissing the top of her head, "baby, you are not broken, and I love you. I will always take you," he whispered, holding her close.

"But...' Cherry started to say.

"Sh, no buts," Finn replied, soothing her.

It was too much longer for the doctor to come in and tell Cherry what she already knew that she had a cluster of seizures, and she was to rest over the weekend but was cleared for school that Monday.

Finn wrapped the blanket around Cherry, opting to carry her to the car, knowing she needed to touch to feel safe.

"How's our girl?" Champ asked a soft smile on her face.

"I'm okay, sleepy," Cherry replied, snuggling closer to Finn.

He nodded and told her not to worry they would take care of her, she smiled and breathed in Finn's soothing scent.
