"Hey, Firefly."
Star's voice echoes through, "Is she okay?"
I smile a little, loving the friendship they've built over the phone, as Flame sighs, “Her placenta has detached a little. She'll be on bed rest for a while, but she and the baby are okay, the heartbeat was strong."
I hear Star let out a little sob, making Flame squeeze his eyes shut as he rasps, "Talk to me, Firefly, please."
I squeeze Leah's hand tighter, hating the pain my brother is going through while Slicer grips his hair.
All three of us are going through pain without our women, but at least I get to see mine every day; they don't.
Fuck, this is the first time in months that Star's even spoken to him.
I hear her sniffle. "I can't."
"Please, Star, I miss you. I miss my best friend. Please. I love you."
I squeeze my eyes shut as she lets out another sob before she rasps, "Just not enough," then hangs up, making him sob. Slicer grips his neck, pulling him over and hugging him tightly while Irasp, "As hard as that was, brother, she rang you. She could have called me, but she didn't; her first thought was to call YOU.”
He looks at me with red-rimmed eyes as the realization hits.
"I'm still her person."
I nod as well as Slicer, "You are still her person, Zayne."
He uses his given name, so it sticks in his head. The first person she thought to call was him.
"She still loves you, brother; she's getting weaker being away from you; she's starting to cave, and when she does, fucking hold onto her."
He looks into my eyes and nods, determination filling his.
I look back at my girl. She's still out of it, and I need a fucking distraction.
"What did you find on Hairy Brother?"
Slicer sighs, and I look at him as he runs his fingers through his brown hair, his hazel eyes showing frustration and anger.
"Some woman he fucked said he knocked her up, then bailed on her after slipping the plan B in her drink."
My eyes widen while Flame's mouth drops open. Fucking hell.
He nods, "Yeah, I was on his trail for about a month before ‘someone’ tipped him off, and he fell off the radar again. Other clubs affiliated with ours and Snakes are keeping an ear to the ground, and we should hear something more in the next few weeks; he can't stay underground for long. Axel said it'll be me going again with Snake but also with Tank as well as my dad."
I nod while Flame sighs. "There must be someone else helping him from one of our clubs."
I nod. "That's what I thought, but the question is, fucking who? Razor's gone, so who fucking else would betray us?"
"I honestly don't know, brother, but leaving for months at a time is fucking exhausting."
I chuckle at Slicer's words before my woman rasps, making us all look at her with relief while chuckling a little at her words.
"You men swear too much."
Chapter 20
Leah
"You men swear too much." I rasp, my eyes opening slowly before they connect with Gunner's relieved gray ones. It takes me a minute to remember as I move my left hand over his right one on my stomach while my right stays clutched in his left.
