Torin flipped her over on the ground and covered her body with his own.
Then at the last minute, the three brothers rushed toward the street while shooting back.
The two bikers then turned in the street and rode away.
Torin slowly raised up and gazed around at the parking lot, then he looked at his brothers.He was very happy to see all three standing there, alive and well, watching over every direction for more trouble.Peering down at Daisy, he saw fresh blood staining her shirt.Her coat had flapped open and he could see it coming from her side.With a gasp, he knelt beside her.He flipped her coat out of the way and pushed her shirt up.
Thick pads of gauze wrapped around her side and the blood he saw had been seeping from them.
“What the hell?”He growled.“What’s going on here?”
Daisy closed her eyes and pushed her shirt down, concealing the wound.“You weren’t supposed to see that,” she muttered.“It happened earlier today.”
Torin reached down and lifted her to her feet.“Yeah, well guess what?It's bleeding again.Why didn’t you say something before now?”
Daisy looked puzzled as she replied.“Why would I say anything?I can take care of myself.”
Torin glared at her and then leaned over to pick up his bike.It looked dusty but there didn’t seem to be any bullet holes in it.“Come on, we need to get back to the clubhouse and have someone look at your wound.”
Daisy rolled her eyes.“I’m fine, just give me a tub of super glue and a band aid.”
Torin studied her for a few stunned seconds then asked, “You seemed to know that bike’s engine long before they came into view, how?Who was the rider?”
She snorted in disgust.“Someone you don’t want to know but he keeps coming back.”Then her eyes widened and she swore.“Damn, he must have seen me.”She gripped his arm hard.“If he saw me, that means he’ll be back here.Your brothers are in danger.He’ll keep coming until he finds me and he won’t care about anyone standing in his way.You have to keep your brothers safe.Tell them to go home.”
“Why is he after you?Who the fuck is this guy anyway?”
Daisy shook her head.“That doesn’t matter now.Just get your brothers out of here.You may have to give up the bar but it's only a building right?No one needs to die tonight and he won’t stop coming until I’m dead.Just go and make your brothers leave.”She looked upset.“I’m so sorry I brought this to your world.”
“Daisy, I’m not leaving you to face that fucker.”Torin snarled.“I told you I’d keep you safe and that’s what I’m going to do.Now get on the bike and let's get you to the club.My brothers know how to take care of things here.No one will die tonight unless it’s those assholes when they come back here.”
Daisy just shook her head.She looked around the parking lot then back at Torin.“Your men are big, but they don’t look like killers.Not like these guys are.You just don’t know!”
Torin swung his leg over the bike’s engine, then he turned to her and again told her, “Daisy, get on this bike and let’s get you safe.”
She sighed and stepped over.“You must regret this already.So I’ll just step away.Tell your dad you lost me.”
Torin stared at her and proclaimed, “We don’t lie to each other.”
Daisy looked a bit saddened as she shrugged her shoulders.“It’s a daily hobby in my family.”
“Well, I have never lost anything in my life.”He shrugged then added a joke, “Except maybe my virginity, but I gained more than I lost with that.”
Daisy kept staring at him.
He shook his head.“Ok, TMI.But you need help with that wound right away, Daisy Girl.And I don’t want the lecture I will get if I don’t bring you to the clubhouse.”
“Why can’t you just let me go?”She remained stubborn as she looked frustrated.
“You need me to list more reasons?”he scoffed.“Ok fine.First off, you have an appointment with our doc first.Number two: we need to know why you’re bleeding all over the place here.”He held out his hand one more time.
She scoffed at his stubbornness now.“Well, big guy, I hope you're right about this because now both our lives are on the line.Not to mention if your club gets involved they won’t stop until they wipe you guys off the map.”
“You will see that I am right most of the time, little Daisy.”He nodded at the three men staying behind, then he helped her aboard his bike, revved the engine and rode away.
Daisy wrapped her arms tightly around his waist and hung on for dear life as he raced his bike through the silent streets.
