Killian

We took her back to Xander’s place. The club came in to clean up the mess we had left behind. No one said anything. Not even Raven, he just clampe hand down on my shoulder and nodded. Giving me a silent message that this part of our story was over and I was just to look after Lottie. He would

rest

And for the first time in my life I believed him. The whole Josh situation was still hanging over our heads but for now I had to believe we were safe.

The silence coming from Lottie was a different matter though. Hers weighed on me. Because it meant she was pulling away.

Even when we had unlocked the collar from her neck and she had wandered upstairs to shower away the grime she hadn’t said a word.

I knew she needed time to deal. And she would need to be looked over by the club’s doctor but she had walked out of that hell hole with her head held Physically she would be fine.

Emotionally I wasn’t so sure.

“She’s been up there a while.” Xander’s voice cut through my thoughts. “Should we check on her?”

God I wanted to. Because deep down I knew she was falling apart up there. I just didn’t know whether she would welcome us.

“Give her another few minutes. She probably needs to just gather her thoughts.”

He swallowed so hard that I heard it. “Do you think-” he trailed off and I closed my eyes.

“I don’t know.”

“It looked,” Xander’s voice broke. “When you shot him he was on top of her. When he fell his dick was out.”

My face screwed up and for a heartbeat I wished I could bring that messed up asshole back to life and kill him slower.

I wanted to make him suffer. Like he had made Lottie suffer.

“I know but she will tell us when she is ready.” I heaved in a breath. “She’s strong. She will get over this. He won’t win. She won’t bewus over this no matte

what he did to her.”

“He didn’t rape me.”

We jumped to our feet in surprise Turning towards the door to find her there Her hair was wet, her body covered in Xander’s massive dressing gown. So the only skin I could see was her pale bruised face and her feet

“Babe.” Xander rushed forward, gambling to a stop when she moved away from him with her hands out. “I’m sorry I didn’t mean to scare you

“You didn’t.” She lied quickly and her eyes flashed “I’m just sore and bruised I don’t want to be touched right now.”

“We know and we are sorry we didn’t get to you sooner It took us a while to find someone who could tell us where he might have taken you

“But we came as soon as we found out. And nothing is ever going to happen to you again. We won’t let it.” I said in a rush of emotion

Dey want something to eat.” Xander flapped his hands in front of him. Unable to stay still and I could understand that. “There’s not anything in b rould order in. What do you fancy?” He made a move towards his phone.

“Stop.” Lotties voice was a harsh whiper. And we both froze in our tracks to turn and look at her.

“Stop treating me like a child. Or worse like a victim.” Her eyes narrowed into slits. “I am more than capable of looking after myself.”

“We know.”

“Good then stop fussing around me. Did you say a doctor is coming?” Falling into the corner of the sectionar couch, she drew her legs up under her. Smoothing down the material so it covered even more of her skin.

“Tomorrow morning. Unless you need one sooner.”

“I don’t need one at all. I’m fine. A few cuts and bruises but nothing that won’t heal.”

I took a stumbling step forward. “Lottie” Falling to my knees, I reached for her. My skin actually itched with the need to touch her. Even just once.

“Stop it.” She bounded back to her feet with a glare. “Stop looking at me like I’m broken.”

Was I looking at her like that? I didn’t mean to if I was.
