Chapter 54: Code Red
Pickle POV
Flame reaches over and moves the hair from her face.
"Fuck!! Finn's going to be pissed" she groans
"We tracked her on the cameras I think she was drugged"
"Kenny call your cousin for me" she yells to the kid
"I'll call Brain and see what room her and Finn are in" she tells me
She's on the radio talking now.
"Jose you have the door, use Jeremy for backup. I need Pickle for rest of the night"
"Cassie your in charge. Close it down" she says after she changes channels.
"Possible code red"
"Code red protocol at the door, keep it calm"
"Jersey you deal with PD"
"Team we trained for this, do it right"
"We got it boss" Jersey say back.
"You guys are amazing, I'm on my phone if needed"
"What's code red?" Kenny asks me.
"Drugged with intent to rape or harm" I answer back
"I have procedures in place for just about anything" she says proudly
She moves to the side of us and jumps on her phone.
"Hey baby can you run the name Spencer through the hotels in my area find me a floor and room number please"
She points to the right as we hit the corner.
"I'm fine, it's a friend she needs help. Code Red"
I can hear the concern in her voice.
Flame's a tough ass women but she has a soft heart.
"I love you too, just text it to me. I might need access as well. He's by my side already, don't worry. I love you my Chevello" I hear her tell Wheels.
Her boyfriend Brain is one of my bestfriends, and only I'm allowed to call him Wheels.
River squims and it draws my attention back to her.
She feels so warm in my arms, she feels too warm, like she has a fever
"Hey!!" I yell out, they both turn towards me
"Flame, call your doc just in case. She's really hot"
She quickly dials a number as she comes and feels River's head.
"I need you, I'll send you the info when I get it"
"Possible ghb, sliced hand from glass and my bouncer needs his arm stitched. Send somebody else to the east side of the alley by my club check on the man there. I'll have a suit there to meet you"
I laugh knowing that douchebag will be in for a long night.
Her dad's men or suits as we call them are only called by her every rarely and they know it's playtime when their needed by her.
She turns to me
"I got the room number let's go"
"Should we get her friend and the big Spencer?" Kenny asks
"Not right now, they are in the other room if we need them" She looks worried.
"Did, Mumford answer?" She asks Kenny
"No, so I sent him and Tokash a message to call ASAP"
River is twitching and both her hands are in fists now.
She opens her eyes and lets out a blood curdling scream.
I tense up some and she starts thrashing around.
I almost drop her when she punches me in the mouth.
Good shot Kitten! I think as I spit out some blood.
"Shhhh Kitten, It's Pickle. I have you shh"
She starts settling.
I move her back closer to my chest so she feels secure.
She looks so small in my big tatted up arms.
As her jacket shifts I noticed she has alot of scaring like bite marks on her neck and a few on her shoulder.
She also has a small hickey, which makes me a little jealous.
The bite marks are pretty deep I can see the scars more clearly now as her jacket slide further down.
I'm getting more and more pissed as I see how many there are on her tiny body.
I need to calm myself down.
I'm going to hurt somebody.
"Hey" Flame slows down when she hears me.
I motion my head to her body.
"How well do you know this boyfriend?"
I'm feeling murderous now.
Who can hurt such a sweet girl like this?
Flame covers her mouth as she looks over River's neck and shoulders.
She shakes her head.
"I know Finn well enough to know he would never hurt a woman like that"
I look at her questionably
"I could vouch for him just like I could if somebody asked me the same question about you or my brother"
I nod
That means the boyfriends out.
So who am I killing?
"Well someone hurt this girl" I say grinding my teeth
I'm breathing heavy now and I'm about to go on a murderous spree.
"Pickle your spiraling, stop and look at them" Flame says.
I take a breath to calm myself and look again.
She's right they are older they are white,
not pink.
Maybe a few years old, not as old as my scars but just as deep.
I look back down towards her shoulder.
"See they're old, we know what old scars look like" Flame says with sadness in her eyes.
Yeah we do, me and her both have the scars to remind us of our pasts.
"Who ever did this to her better hope they have been dealt with already" I spit out
We get her up to her floor.
These are the really nice rooms.
Brain gave us two different room numbers, we need to pick the right one.
"Finn said they had a suite, so it should be this one" Flame says quickly.
As we get closer to the door it clicks open and I hear the cameras moving back in place.
I tilt my head to Wheels through the camera.
Thanks brother.
I take her and lay her in a bedroom off to the left.
I gently put her on the bed.
She's burning up and apparently is still gripping on that damn piece of glass.
Shit, I should have noticed it there.
Her hand might be worse now.
She lets out a cry or a moan of pain as I open her hand to get the glass from her.
Her eyes fly open now, she's panicking!
She's trembling so hard I can feel it through the bed.
She's having a hard time focusing her eyes.
She's sweating but her skin feels cold as I take her hand gently.
I need to get these covers on her.
"River it's me Pickle, do you remember me?" She nods her head but still looks terrified.
"Shh Kitten your safe now, or should I start calling you Alley Cat now?" I laugh lightly
Her eyes roll back again and I catch her head before it hits the headboard
