CHAPTER 36

LUCY

I open my eyes and I can’t see anything. Where am I? The last thing I remember is walking to the car with Adam and then nothing. I can’t feel my hands but I can feel my arms and they are behind me. So, I am guessing that my hands are tied super tight behind me and my face is covered. 

I can hear that I am in a car as the engine roars. I fall over as the car makes a sharp turn and I hit my head. Without being able to see anything I am not sure what I just hit. Did I get kidnapped? What the fuck? Who the fuck is this? What did I ever do to them? I don’t even know people like that in my life that would do this.

Wait, what happened to Adam? Is he okay? I know Travis is probably freaking out right now and he is going to have a manhunt out for me. I really want to know who this person is and why they hate me this damn much. 

I clear my throat so I know I can speak. 

“Who are you?”

There is a long silence before the person speaks, “I told you to leave him alone and now I had to hurt him in the process. Maybe just removing you from him will solve the problem and I can have him back!”

I am silent, not sure what I should say back but I am very confused. Why is this woman mad at me and for which guy is she talking about? 

“Who are you talking about?”

She screams, “ADAM!! You dumb bitch! He is mine and always has always will be. He might have left me and left town like 5 months ago but that doesn’t mean we are over. But, he definitely can’t be with you because I won’t allow it.”

“Wait a minute, are you the ex that he moved states for and what did you do to him?”

I begin 

She stutters, “EX? Negative! I didn’t break up with him, he just came back here for some crazy reason thinking we were over. I figured my note in your car would be a good enough threat but you clearly didn’t leave him alone. So now I had to hurt him so I could get you away from him. I just hope I didn’t hit him too hard because he has such a lovely face.”

“What the fuck is wrong with you?”

She just starts laughing and all I can do is cry at the thought of Adam being hurt because of me. What kind of person doesn’t know that they have been dumped and to just move on with their life? This girl is fucking psycho and in the worst way possible. I am legit scared she is going to kill me and I haven’t even lived a full life yet. 

TRAVIS

We are in the ambulance headed to the hospital. I just got off the phone with my boss about the warrant for the club. I semi filled her in on my love life and how Lucy got kidnapped by somebody. Also told her about Adam without going too much into detail. She said she is going to rush the warrant so we can get that list as soon as possible. 

I look down at Adam and it is such a painful sight to look at when there is nothing I can do to help him. I really hope these doctors at the hospital are ready and know what they are doing. I don’t have time to be suing a hospital, I just need them to help him and fix him. 

The ambulance slows down to a complete stop and the back doors open up. There was a team of doctors and nurses that were waiting for us. They pull his gurney out as they wheel him inside and I can’t go with him past here. I watch them wheel him through a set of double doors and they close behind them making it to where I can no longer see Adam. My stomach sinks and all I want to do is throw up. 

I take a seat in the lobby so I can wait until the cops get here. My leg is shaking and I am filled with anxiety. My wife has been kidnapped by who knows who and Adam has been struck in the head by the same person. Who the fuck is this person and why did they do this? Have I pissed off somebody? Has Adam pissed off somebody? Has Lucy? 

The automatic doors in the emergency room open up and I see two cops walk in the door. I immediately get up and make my way over to them. I immediately shake their hands as I am standing in front of them.

“Good evening officers, my name is Travis, I know I need to give a statement. Can we go somewhere private to talk?”

One of the officers nod and we walk into a conference room next to the emergency room. We all grab a chair and one of them pulls out his pen and pad to take notes. 

I give them the full rundown of everything that has happened in the past week or so. I give them my vin number along with my tag number. I gave them a description of Lucy and what she was wearing tonight. The clothes don’t really matter because knowing how kidnappers operate they will more than likely change her close soon. 

I gave them every detail I can think of before they shook my hand again and told me they would be calling me. I know how long the reports are but I need them to move a whole lot faster so they can find my wife. They all know me too so they know I will be on their ass to get this done sooner rather than later. 

Most people know there are two things in this life I don’t play around with. The main one is my wife and the second is my money. This person has done royally fucked up by messing with my wife and I hope I am there when they catch them. Fuck I need my wife to be okay and Adam to be okay.

I am so sorry to both of them for not being there to protect them. Fuck why did I do this? I should have done something more.
