Chapter Thirteen

Wheels

EVERYONE IS FINALLY here and we're ready to head inside the fucking mansion to get our girl back. Soul and I have been separated. Goliath is with me and Soul is with Country. We'll all be going through the front door of the mansion once the guards are taken out, but we can't work together. If something happens, no one wants Brooklyn left alone. They still don't know she's pregnant, but the guys don't need to know right now. Everyone here will protect her with their lives regardless of her being pregnant or not. Brooklyn is our woman and everyone in Odin's Gap knows it. No one needs to see the three of us together to realize Soul and I will be claiming her as soon as we possibly can.

Nova and Scorch set up somewhere they can get a clean shot on the two guards on the roof of the ostentatious mansion. They listen for Anguish to give them the countdown as the rest of the guys get into place. We want all of the guards taken out at the same time because it will create less chaos and no one will be able to alert anyone inside. We still don't know how many guards are inside the mansion and will have to deal with them once we get through the door. From our position outside the front gate, I watch on as every guard is taken out in one way or another. The only part of this shit I can't stand is that the guards on the roof aren't being killed. They're being tranquilized with darts Scorch will fire off at them so Darren can take them to jail with everyone else in this fucking house.

I watch on as each guard hits the ground while waiting for the call from Anguish to break through the gate so we can get the fuck to Brooklyn. Soul and I need to lay eyes on our girl and make sure she's okay. Not only because of her, but because of our child as well. Soul and I don't give a fuck who's baby she's carrying. The three of us will raise him or her together and we won't ever do one of those DNA tests to figure out who the baby belongs to. As long as Brooklyn is on board with us not knowing, Soul and I couldn't care less about being the biological father to the children Brooklyn gives us.

"On my count," Anguish finally states as the last of the guards fall to the ground.

Shaking my head to clear all thoughts from my mind, we make our way through the gate after Goliath disables the electronic pad on the pillar just before you enter. The doors swing open soundlessly as we push through them and make our way up the driveway. There's no point in hiding where we are because none of the guards inside the house look out the windows or even walk by them. While Bennett and his father are cocky and narcissistic enough to make the dumbest fucking mistakes and leave paper trails they aren't even aware of, I don't believe Bennett's father is stupid enough not to have guards inside the house with him.

We finally get to the front door and step aside as Anguish holds out the battering ram he's been dying to use. He slams it into the front doors and both of them open wide, almost falling off the hinges. I hear the screams coming from inside the house already and let the sinister smile cover my face as we race inside and head straight for the screams. The room we enter is one of those fancy as fuck sitting rooms where no one ever actually sits in the place. My eyes roam over the overpriced, nasty looking furniture until I get to where Brooklyn is standing with Bennett in front of a minister.

"I now . . .," I listen as the minister says, his words faltering when Bennett pushes him aside and pulls Brooklyn in front of him.

He's using our girl as a fucking shield as if we won't get to him. I take several steps forward and only come to a stop when Bennett brings his one arm in front of my woman's body and holds a gun to her head. A sinister smile covers his face as he believes he's won. Bennett hasn't won a fucking thing as I take in Nova and Scorch peering through doors leading into this room from the backyard.

"Minister, I suggest you stop speakin'. This woman isn't marryin' an abusive piece of shit against her will. You sit tight and let us deal with this asshole before we make sure you get out of here in one piece," I tell the minister as he looks at me with fear in his eyes. After a quick, subtle nod of his head, he steps back and tries to become invisible in the room.

Anguish, Country, Soul, and Riot line up behind the other people in the room as I stare down Bennett. I don't let myself look at Brooklyn because if I do, I know I'll lose my shit. She's been with this cocksucker and we all know he'll want to punish her after she had the balls to leave him and take back her life into her own hands. Soul and I haven't voiced our concern or fears about what's been done to her because we refuse to make it real when we can't do anything about it. Right now, I need to keep Bennett distracted as Nova and Scorch sneak in the doors behind him.

Country notices what's going on and tells Anguish to get them out of the room to the hallway so I'm not distracted when everything is going on. Anguish realizes the need to get the other four fuckers out of here and removes them from the room. I don't move or say anything else until Soul and Country re-enter the room and stand at my side with Goliath.

"You won't win, biker bitches. I've got Brooklyn in my arms, we're basically already married, and if you take one more step near me, I'll fucking pull the trigger and blow her brains all over this room. My mom will have a reason to redecorate the room as she's wanted to for years now," Bennett says, his voice full of that elitist attitude I've seen from millions of guys like him all over the world.

"Really? You think the men who came with us have already entered this room? That there's no one else here with us? I can tell you right fuckin' now that there are multiple cop cars linin' your driveway as we speak. All evidence of your crimes and the crimes of your father have been presented to them and they're just waitin' for us to get Brooklyn out of here and away from your fuckin' ass," I inform Bennett as his eyes fill with shock and fear for a split second before he puts his blank mask back in place.

"You're not fucking taking me anywhere. Nowhere in this scenario do you win. You're nothing more than biker scum and don't deserve to have a slut like Brooklyn. She's less than fucking trailer trash and I won't let her go. If you think of coming any closer to me, I'll fucking make you watch me shoot her in the head as I've already stated. Now, I suggest you get out of my father's home and let us finish this wedding ceremony so our plans can move forward," Bennett states as Nova and Scorch slip in the house undetected and get right up behind Bennett.

He's so fucking arrogant, he doesn't even notice someone is behind him. His entire focus is on Soul and me with the fucked up smirk he has on his face. With a subtle nod of my head, Scorch grabs Bennett while Nova takes the gun from him. Bennett's face turns purple in rage as Brooklyn is released from his hold. Soul and I rush to her side and catch her before she can fall in a heap on the floor at Bennett's feet. When he goes to kick out at her, Nova steps in and stops him by grabbing his leg and keeping him off-balance.

"What the fuck do you think you're doing?" Bennett screams out as Brooklyn starts sobbing in our arms while Soul and I hold her close.

Reluctantly, I hand her over to Soul and step up in Bennett's face.

"You were never gonna win, Bennett. Brooklyn is too fuckin' good for you and way more than the trailer trash you claim her to be. She's lovin', full of spirit, and findin' who she is as a person while no one holds her back. We don't put her down and treat her like a piece of shit and beat the hell out of her because we're not man enough to handle a woman with her own mind and opinions on things. You're nothin' but a little bitch and your reign of terror has come to a fuckin' end," I promise Bennett as I turn my attention to Soul and Brooklyn.

Walking back over to them, I take our girl in my arms and watch as my best friend gets a smirk on his face. The only time Soul ever smirks the way he currently is, is when he's got some kind of plan in mind and I continue to watch as he drops to his knee in front of Brooklyn.

"Love, you've been through hell and back. We got here as fast as we could to bring you back home. Wheels and I love you so fuckin' much and want to spend the rest of our lives with you. You're carryin' our baby and we want to raise him or her as a family. With you, we've both found a sense of peace and calm that we've never experienced before. I know this is really fast, but that's okay. Wheels and I aren't goin' anywhere. You're our person and we knew that the night you walked in to Cricket's after runnin' from the piece of shit behind you. I want to marry you here today with our brothers present. We can have a larger weddin' that you take your time plannin' once all of this bullshit is over with. Will you marry us, Brooklyn?" Soul asks, a tender edge to his voice I only hear when he's talking to Brooklyn, Nanny, or the kids of the club.

"Yes," Brooklyn says, tears running down her face as I notice the bruises on her face and neck for the first time.

"I love you, Little Warrior. We'll get married right now and force this sick fuck to watch you voluntarily marry men you know love you and want you for who you are and not for what you can bring to our operation or whatever the fuck he has goin' on here. We want you at our side for the rest of our lives and will spend our days lovin' you and makin' sure you know you're the center of our world. Together we'll build an unbreakable bond and make our family one of the strongest ones you've ever been a part of. Our children will never know the pain we've endured at the hands of our own parents. Well at least when it comes to you and Soul," I add in as Bennett struggles to get away from Scorch and Nova as they laugh and know exactly what the hell we're doing right now.

"Anguish, bring everyone else back in here. We've got the stupid fuck away from Brooklyn and it appears we're gonna have a weddin'," Scorch calls out, his voice full of laughter as Anguish and everyone else find their way back into the room while Soul turns to the minister that was brought in to marry Brooklyn against her will.

"You're an ordained minister? The weddin' will be legit?" Soul questions the man as he looks around the room, trying to figure out what the fuck is going on around him.

"Yes. My church is in the middle of town and I was forced to come here against my will. Much like your fiancée was forced to marry this vile excuse for a human. The ceremony was not complete so she's free to marry the man of her choice," the minister answers my best friend as Brooklyn wavers in my arms.

"Just a little bit longer, Little Warrior. Let's get married and then we'll get you to the hospital to get checked out," I promise her as we step up in front of the minister.

"You can't fucking do this!" Bennett screams out, his voice so high I feel dogs are about to surround the mansion in their attempt to get to the thing screaming the way he is. "Brooklyn will be mine! She's nothing more than a slut for you. Minister, if you perform this ceremony, I will guarantee that your church is burned down and you'll be inside when it happens."

"No, you won't. You're gonna end up as someone's bitch in prison and you won't be allowed access to the outside world. The only time you'll be around another person is when your ass is bein' railed while you scream out in pain," I promise Bennett as Soul and I stand to one side of Brooklyn and the minister smiles at the three of us.

"What the hell is going on in my house?" Mr. Conklin asks, confusion filling his face as he tries to figure out the mess in front of him.

"That's an easy answer," Anguish begins, slapping the asshole's cheek so hard he flinches from the touch. "My men are claimin' their woman and gettin' married today. Your son is a fuckin' loser and couldn't seal the deal. All of you will be goin' to jail for the various crimes you've committed over the years and you won't see the light of day as a free man again. Your dreams of higher positions of power will not come to fruition."

When Mr. Conklin goes to respond, Anguish covers his fucking mouth with his hand and shakes his head. Goliath steps up to the other side of him and it shuts the fucker up because Goliath is an intimidating man and Conklin doesn't want to tangle with him. I can't blame him at all.

"Sir, if you could go through the ceremony as fast as possible, I'd appreciate it. We need to get our soon-to-be wife to the hospital to make sure our baby and her are okay," I tell the minister as he nods his head in response.

The minister goes through the ceremony as I watch Brooklyn and Soul get married. I stand by my best friend as they repeat the vows and pull the rings from my pocket. We bought an engagement set shortly after Brooklyn moved into the cabin and have been holding onto them ever since. The second their ceremony is over with, I change places with Soul and go through a commitment ceremony with our girl. It was no decision for Soul to be the one to marry Brooklyn while I committed myself to her. My best friend deserves to have a wife in name even though she'll have both of our last names. When the minister is done talking, Soul and I kiss our woman and slide the three rings on her finger. One is her engagement ring, a wedding band from Soul, and a band from me so we're both represented. Soul and I don't have rings yet, but we'll have them once we know our woman is safe and there's nothing wrong with our baby.

"Let's get the fuck out of here," Anguish says once we're done.

I turn to face Bennett who's all but passed out from the way Scorch is holding him. His face is purple as Scorch and Nova shove him from the room in front of us. None of these fuckers will be behind Brooklyn so she has to look over her shoulder to find out where they are in aspect to herself. She's done that enough and it ends right this second. All five of the assholes who have treated her so horribly are led out to the waiting police force with Darren standing in front of everyone. We hand them over and know this won't be the last time we see them. Brooklyn will have to testify against them and we'll be right at her side while she does.

After exchanging a few words with Darren and the lead officer from Dobber's Cove, we all head out. Scorch tosses us the keys to the one of the SUVs they arrived in because Brooklyn can't go on either one of our bikes right now. Especially when we don't know what damage has been done to her. We'll find out soon as Soul pulls out his phone to let Nanny, Cricket, and Fee know we've got her and are heading to the hospital. They tell him they're packing her a bag of clothes and will meet us there. Soul is in the backseat with Brooklyn in his arms as she cries and buries her head in his chest. I keep my eyes on the road while glancing at them every few seconds. I'm afraid if I take my eyes off of her for too long, I'll wake up and this will all be a dream.
