“Shut up!” He screams at me, I’m getting too close to the truth.
“She’s been the one to tell you everything about us and our lives. How did you manag
e to get her to do that?” The way Hudson talks about her and from the little that I know about her, she’s extremely loyal to Hudson.
He looks pleased with himself. “It was easy, she had no idea I was playing her. Tell me something Mia, when you and Hudson are lying in bed together do you tell him everything he wants to know?”
Pillow talk. I knew Marline didn't mean it. Where the hell is Hudson? I haven’t heard Harrison make a sound since Martin broke the office door down, is he okay?
“She’d hate you knowing that you twisted everything she told you and used it against those she cares about.” I tell him and I instantly know it’s the wrong thing to say.
His eyes darken and he lifts his gun, pointing it at me. “You have no idea. You’re naive, haven’t you learned yet, Mia? Everyone has an agenda and Marline is no different.” My eyes close, and time seems to slow down as I wait for him to shoot me.
Bang
The sound reverberates around the room.
Sixteen
Hudson
I couldn't let anyone else drive, I needed to get to Mia. My foot was pedal to the metal for the entire drive. My rage is taking over me and I’m ready to kill. This bloodthirstiness is something I haven’t felt in a long ass time. It’s back in full force and I’m going to let it consume me, just as soon as I have Martin in my grasp.
David had my phone on while I was driving, we were watching everything unfold in the house. We watched as he shot my dad, heard him baiting Mia to come out of the office or my dad would die. I've never been so proud of my girl. She kept her cool and stayed hidden. She did exactly as I had asked. When that fucker splintered my office door I knew that there wasn't much time left. I was three minutes out and I needed to get there sooner rather than later.
I listened to every word he said to her. God my fucking woman is amazing, she kept him talking, I watched as she backed herself into the wall but she still kept talking to him as though she wasn’t afraid. She found out everything I wanted to know from my mom. Mia was right, mom had no idea that he was using her. I get that she's pissed that we are going after the man she has feelings for, but she has to realize that he has killed people close to us. There’s no way he’s ever getting away with his life.
David, Aaron, and I are quiet walking into the house, not wanting to alert him that we are here. Rory is outside checking on Coby, Dylan, Ronald, and Cormac. Thankfully as I passed them I did a glancing sweep of them all, each one of them have shots to their arms, none are life threatening.
As we enter the house, I see Jagger on the floor, a gunshot to his arm, he’s losing blood but he’s going to be okay. He’s sitting up and alert. As soon as he spots us, he gets to his feet. As we sweep through the house he follows us. Aaron stops and checks on dad, he's got a gunshot wound to his right thigh and one in his gut. He’s pale and sweaty, it’s not a good sign.
Mia tells Martin that mom’s going to hate him when she finds out that he used her. I watch in slow motion as he lifts his gun and points it at her, telling her that she’s wrong, that my mom knows a lot more than Mia thinks. I don’t even hesitate, I lift my gun and raise it at the back of his head.
Bang
I fire a shot, watch as Martin goes down, crashing to the floor with a loud thud. My eyes are on Mia, her face etched in pain. I'm moving toward her as she slides down the wall.
“Mia talk to me!” I demand, I can’t get to her quick enough.
“Hudson something is wrong,” she cries, her hands rubbing her bump. “Pain in my stomach.” She's finding it hard to talk, like the breath has been taken from her.
“Is it the baby?” I question as I reach her.
She nods. “He's not moving, and I’m in so much pain,” she whimpers.
I clench my jaw as I see the blood on her pants. “Where have you been shot?” I ask her just seeing the blood is making make me lose my mind.
She frowns, deep lines form in his forehead. “I haven't been shot.”
What the hell? “Mia, you’re bleeding. Where are you bleeding?” I search over her body, trying to find where the hell the blood is coming from.
She glances down between her legs, a blood curdling scream erupts from her lips. “Hudson, our baby!”
“Get a fucking ambulance!” I yell, I thought I knew what fear was when Mia was taken, but nothing compares to this right now, knowing that our baby is in trouble is unlike anything I've ever felt before.
“Hudson!” Mia cries, tears rolling down her face. “Is the baby okay?”
I need to tamp down my fear, it’s not helping anyone. I swallow it back and wipe away Mia’s tears with my thumb. “Hey, Princess everything is going to be okay. We're going to get you to the hospital. Don't worry.” Even though I say the words to calm her down, I don’t believe them. She’s almost seven months pregnant, it's not good, it's too early.
