"Let's just say that our little deal isn't going to happen," he growled at the pair on the couch.

He lowered his gun and looked at Colin, "You are going to know what it's like to fuck with my club and my family, shit head." He turned and looked at the woman who gave birth to his daughter, "And you are obviously a slow learner. You didn't actually think that I would let you have my daughter, did you? Was me shipping your druggie, skank ass to a psych hospital and locking you there not a big enough clue that you shouldn't have fucked with me?"

"But Justin-" She started.

"I don't want to hear anything you have to say!" He roared, "Let's get this finished," and motioned to his men behind them and they knocked them out with the handle of their guns.

Satisfied he instructed, "Tie their asses up and talk them to the basement." The men started right away on their job as Justin turned to survey the rest of the building. He didn't see Mickey or Cash and went off in search of them and his wife. He moved to the first two rooms and saw a few bodies bleeding on the floor, and ignored them. He was moving down a hallway to explore more when Stevo called him back over to review plans of the fire they were going to start.

Mickey was on a mission. The second the main room had been cleared, he had a few men with him as they swept the hallway and other rooms searching for Avery. He knew he had to find her. He had really grown to like the woman and he realized that if Justin felt about Avery the way he was starting to for that little badass, Sally, Justin would be shattered if they didn't find her.

The trio made it to the last room in the hallway and at the signal, Mickey kicked in the door. They went in and saw a man, scared shitless, standing with his hands up in surrender and Avery on a couch, still asleep.

Mickey shoved his gun in the waistband of his jeans, "Fuck, Avery."

The men held the man at gunpoint while Mickey rushed over and kneeled down. He was relieved that she didn't look hurt, but was upset that she was still drugged. Was this going to hurt the baby? He was thrilled that Doc had been able to come at the last minute and was waiting in one of the SUV's just in case. He took out his knife and cut the rope that was around her hands and gently picked her up.

She was like a rag doll in his arms and held her close to his chest to protect her. She stirred some and groggily opened her eyes to see that Mickey was there.

"Mickey..." she whispered.

His heart went out to her, "I got ya Av, let's get you to Justin."

Her eyes closed again and he looked at the men, "As soon as I'm in the hallway with her, finish it."

He walked into the hallway and heard the pops and a thud as the body fell to the floor. He rushed back down and saw Justin looking at something with Stevo and called out to him. Justin turned and saw his sergeant at arms carrying his wife and his heart stopped. He rushed to meet them and Mickey gently lowered her into Justin's arms, making her stir again.

"Baby, I got you," Justin repeated, hoping that his voice didn't crack with emotion. Avery heard his voice and didn't know if it was a dream or reality and forced her eyes open. She saw his handsome chiseled face and reached up to touch him. She felt the tell tall stubble that he hasn't shaved in a day or two and started crying when it dawned on her that he was real.

"Oh Baby," Justin said, feeling the tears burn his eyes, "Get the car here and get Doc!"

He moved to the door holding her tightly to him and quickly got in the back when the door was opened. Doc was right next to him and started taking vitals. Justin wouldn't let her out of his arms, so Doc did the best he could.

Avery was still crying and becoming more alert and that was good. Doc was asking questions to get her brain out of the fog and was pleased with her answers.

"Justin, who were they? Why did they take me?" She asked, still crying.

"I'll tell you everything once we get home, Baby, "Justin promised, "Are you hurt? Did they touch you?"

"They didn't touch me, kept me tied up in a chair, then on a couch. I don't remember much after the mall, they put a rag over my face I think and I felt a little needle prick and then not much until I woke up some at that building. They gave me some water to drink and I think it had something in it and I don't remember much again. ," She replied, confirming what they all thought, "Will that hurt the baby?"

Doc shook his head, "No, I don't think. Sounds like the date rape drug and from what Justin said, you aren't very far along and you should be just fine. I want to take a urine sample and some blood when we get back home to double check. Your vitals are coming back nicely already."

Justin was feeling relief, but wouldn't be totally fine until they got back and could see an ultrasound and see the clear bloodwork. Avery settled back against him after Doc finished blood pressure again to relax in his arms. They were waiting until all of their men were out and so the fire timer could be set. Once the all clear had been given, Justin told them to set it and for everyone to go home in the groups they discussed. Stevo was already checking all the street and surveillance cameras around, wiping and cleaning up behind them.

As soon as they were on the way home, Avery bolted up, "Oh god! What about Cole? Is he dead?"

Justin calmed her down, "Whoa Baby calm down. Cole is recovering from surgery. They got the bullet out and Nina is there to hold his hand. He's gonna be just fine."

Avery settled back into her place on Justin's chest and closed her eyes, just wanting to forget that this ever happened.
