Chapter 96: She's so close

Lucky POV

Damn Pickle just took a hard punch to the side of his head, because he's not paying attention he's flirting and showing off for the girl.

"Get up Pickle!!" I yell.

I hear River yell so I look over her way.

She looks worried. She stumbles back a bit.

She must be drinking.

What the fuck the guy behind them just shoved her but she looks okay.

The guy's can handle that drunk, Finn's got this he's on his feet already.

Pickle's up and fighting his way to a win.

About time he gets his head in the game.

Suddenly I hear River yell again and I look over and see the dick grabbing her by the hair and yanking her back.

"Mother fucker!!" I yell as I start running over to where they are.

Finn is on his feet and has one of them by the throat.

Lincoln is moving his woman out of the way quickly as he's trying to get the other fucker off of River.

I watch as he says something to River and she get a blank look in her eyes and her face goes pale.

I know that look she's having a flashback.

I've seen that look on her face before when I was looking at surveillance videos.

Pickles trying to fight the guy off as he's trying to make it to the cage door.

I make it to them just as River's eyes roll and I catch her just before her head hit the ground.

I pick her up bridal style in my arms "You got this fucker handled Finn?" I yell out.

He lands a punch to the guys head just as his brother quickly puches the other guy about to punch Finn.

Finn nods to me as he is fighting with his brother against the other two, I watch as Pickle comes flying out of the cage quickly jumping in the fight.

I move quickly up to the office.

I scan my finger and quickly lay her on the couch.

Immediately my phone starts ringing, I quickly answer it knowing who it is.

"Brain she'll be okay! Noo she's not wake yet. Well then I have to get off the phone. I'll call you back brother"

Now he cares, if he would just let us tell her the truth he can be up here with her. He's the one who decided all of this, It's his fault it's this way.

She's trying to fight me now and she's crying. She looks so scared, I need to calm her down.

I gently caress her cheek and move her hair out of her face. She's so beautiful. No! Don't even start that shit again.

"Shhhh enchantress you're safe open your eyes" I say as calmly as I can.

She fights against me holding her.

She's trembling. I try to pull her to my warm body a little bit.

I cup her face and pull her head to mine.

"Shhhh your safe, come back and you'll see. Open your eyes enchantress"

Her eyes start fluttering around, I feel her hand moving up my side and it takes all I have not to flinch or tense up as she touches me.

She pulls me into a tight embrace. She's breathing so hard and her whole body is almost vibrating she's shaking so hard.

She starts crying, my stomach flips and I can feel the warmth of her body against mine. She smells so good like a strawberry and vanilla maybe. I inhale her scent.

She starts sobbing hard against my shoulder.

My body tenses and my arms betray me by wrapping around her and pulling her against my body tighter. I lightly caress her back and her face.

I've never had anyone this close to my body before and it's terrifying. My body shakes with hers. My stomach keeps flip flopping.

Usually when I'm with a woman they don't have access to me. My skin crawls if they even try to touch me. I hate it. I hate being touched! I was touched enough as a kid to never want anyone that close to me again. I never want anyone to have that much control over me or my body.

I can't do this! I need to leave. There's to much touching for me. Fighting is the only time people even come this close to my body and that just stirs me up that's why I'm mostly undefeated.

A shiver runs through my body and I begin to shake harder from the closest of her. I can feel her breath on my face and neck and I can't breathe.

She moves back a little and caress my cheek softly, "I'm sorry for touching you Lucky. Just breath or your going to pass out too." She say so soft and so sweet.

I look at her and realize she's right I'm holding my breath.

She's so close to me and I don't want her to back away anymore then she did already.

I take a ragged breath. Looking at her makes my heart skip a beat and I try to take another harsh breath.

I tighten the embrace as I pull her back to me. I can feel her warm body and I'm not sure if it's me or her that's still shaking.

I let out another harsh breath and then another.

I'm sure now it's me still shaking. She puts her head to mine. Her hand is still on my cheek, the other is on my chest. She lightly rubs my chest with her fingers and the feeling is like being shocked or tazed it's a intense sensation that I feel clear to the parts of me I thought were long dead
