Chapter 41.
Savage POV.
I watch as Angel kisses Rebel and sets her on her feet as my little girl runs; I scoop her up and hold her close to me as she cries. I shake my head at Angel and she smiles softly at me.
"I'm sorry." She whispers and I hear her. My eyes widen as I scream her name as she shuts the door. Teagan takes Rebel and I run and bang on the barn door and begin to shoulder barge it when Ivar and the rest of my men try to find another way in.
"Ryder, she isn't alone in there. Look." Joanna hands me a tablet as my men keep trying and I see Solomon and Hound. My blood boils in my veins at the betrayal from my brothers. I listen to everything. When Solomon mentions Carmella, I look at Teagan and she is fuming. Rage etches on her face as she watches.
I watch as Hound steps towards Angel. My heart is beating painfully against my ribcage. Then he turns and faces Solomon. I hear the shot. I watch as Solomon falls. Hound didn't betray the club.
The sound of bikes in the distance brings me out of my thoughts that the newest member of the Princes Of Darkness has just stepped up and protected my woman.
"Get ready," I shout. I look at Teagan. I kiss Rebel. "Princess, you need to go with Candy. Daddy is going to get Mommy ok. I love you. Stay hidden."
"No daddy no, bad people, daddy!" she chokes on her sobs. I hug her tight and kiss her all over her face.
"You are safe, baby. I will get mommy ok, please Rebel go with Candy and Boomer. I love you and I promise you, I will see you soon ok. Now go with Candy and hide." I say to her and she cries harder but nods her head.
I hand her to Candy, "Keep my daughter safe." I say to her and she nods her head, and she takes off with my daughter, Boomer beside them. Rebel is screaming for me and her mommy. I nod at Candy and she winks at me as she runs with her and a gun in her hand. I turn my attention to the incoming bikes. I grab my gun as the sound of a semi-automatic gun fires off towards us. I dive and roll up onto my knees and fire back.
"Take cover, show them no fucking mercy. Kill them all!" I shout as we all open fire. I watch as the Mother's Revenge, the Bratva, my men, the Moretti's and those loyal to Angel and her family all join in the fray.
I watch in awe as Alessa mounts one of our bikes and wheel spins as she takes off like a shot. With her gun in hand, she steadies the bike as she jumps and stands on the seat before sailing through the air. Firing as she does. Hitting members of the Vipers and our sister chapter. She falls backwards, rolls and up on her knees and then her feet and keeps firing.
I fire as more bikes arrive. It is only then that I recognise them to be my father and the rest of the club.
We keep firing, but they keep coming. This is more than two clubs. Teagan is covered in blood. She is wiping her blade.
I see Antonio, Gianni, Marco, Nate, and Nico all doing the same thing. I watch as Nico slices a man's throat using the same knife; he flicks it into the skull of another man.
The Moretti's are ruthless and I'm glad we are not against them. They are fucking deadly.
Ivar and his men are fighting hand to hand. When we hear a blast and I look over to the sound as it is all out fucking war in this abandoned farm. I see two of the Mother's Revenge running at speed as they throw something, and I realise it's a damn grenade.
"We need to stop them now!" I shout over the noise. When I smell something burning. My gut is screaming at me to get back to the barn. I turn and see the barn is on fire. My heart gives out.
When the noise dies down. I run to the barn, screaming for her. Everything seems to happen in slow motion.
"ANGEL!" Teagan and Antonio both scream as the last man is killed. We run towards the barn. When the barndoors fall. I see Hound trying to get out and he has been shot in the leg. I try to run to get inside when I'm held back. I see her and she is fighting with Foxy in the distance.
"Let me go. I need to get to her!" I scream as I try to get out of the hold. But I can't I look behind me and see Ivar has hold of me.
"ANGEL!" I scream, but she can't
hear me over the roaring fire. One of my men moves forward and drags Hound out. He groans as one of the assassing begins to dress his leg can't take my eyes off Angel. She grabs Foxy by her hair and pulls her down. I see the blade in her hand. She stabs her. I can hear the scream. I watch as she slits her throat. She stands up, dropping the blade. She turns to face me. Her
hand on her side.
The fire is moving fast as the walls begin to groan as I'm pulled back, still fighting to get out of the hold. I watch in horror as she sees me. She smiles at me and tries to run to me. The walls fall inwards. I shake my head. This is not happening.
"Let me go. I can get to her. Please Ivar, let me fucking go! ANGEL!" I scream at the same time everyone else does. The barn groans and I watch in horror as the roof collapses. I fall to my knees as Teagan screams. The tears leaving my eyes as I watch the barn completely burn.
The shock is too much. I stand up and donkey kick backwards Ivar grunts and I take off, staggering to get to her. Sirens wail in the distance. I can't wait that long. I run and climb over parts that haven't burnt. I cough as the smoke is thick and toxic.
I climb down, burning my arm in the
process. I hiss as I move through the destruction. I scan the area, turning as + look around. I stop when I see an arm. It's bloody and covered in soot. "Angel!" I run towards the pile of broken beams and dig throwing pieces of broken timber away, my hands bloody. Pdig furiously to get to her.
When more hands join in. I watch as the broken bigger beams are lifted and my heart stops as I see her once blonde hair, dark and bloody. Her eyes are closed. There is a path of slightly clean skin where she has cried.
I stagger back before dropping to my knees. No, no, she can't die on me, she can't die on Rebel. No, she has to live. Please god let her live! I crawl to her and gently move her to her back. I lift her and stand before I run with her outside and away from danger. I place her down gently. Her chest isn't moving. With shaking hands, I try to find her pulse. I scream in pain and frustration. I can't find it.
I sob as I lean over her and kiss her
lips. "NO, come back. Come back to me, Angel. love you, please, please come back. How am I meant to raise Rebel without you? You can't leave me. I won't let you!" I say as I begin the chest compressions. count as I push down. After thirty, I breathe into her mouth. Fkeep going.
as I scream and cry.
"WAKE UP ANGEL!" I scream as I keep working. No, I won't give up. Doesn't she know how I need her, how I love her? How much Rebel needs her, her family. All of us need her!
I keep working, when someone tries to push me aside, but I won't stop.
"Sir, please move." Teagan grabs my arms, but I shove her away.
"Let them help." She says as I fall on my ass. As I watch as they tear her top and I see the defibrillator.
"CLEAR!" I watch as her chest arches up and falls back down. He does it again.
"Come on Angel, I fucking love you. We all love you. Wake up!" I scream and sob as the EMT looks at me and shakes he shakes his head. My world crashes there and then. I clutch Teagan to me and I roar in pain, my heart completely broken. When I hear a gasp. I move towards her. She smiles at me, those honey coloured eyes looking at me, confirming she is alive.
"Angel, Angel, can you hear me?" I ask her, and she blinks slowly. She has tears in her eyes as her eyes close again. I lose it as I try to wake her up again.
"Sir, she is alive. She needs to rest. Please let us do our jobs." He says as they put the oxygen mask on her and a neck brace. They hook her up to all kinds of machines. I can see her breathing. They carefully move her onto a stretcher and into the back of the ambulance. They won't let anyone go with her, as the paramedic is still working on her.
"Go, I will get Rebel and we will meet you at the hospital." Teagan says, and I take off and follow behind the ambulance. The rest of my men were with me.
Please god keep her safe, keep her alive.
