Dominic
I was Royally pissed the fucked off but I wasn't letting her see it because I'm sure she would call me out on it. I headed down to my office and called Jameson.
“ Mr Chase. The detective found the car, however there's no license plate or anything. I've checked the security footage outside of the mall . The car was parked there for a few hours and when they walked out that's when he made a move. The car windows are tinted so there's no traces. The car was left in an abandoned alleyway and There aren't cameras around the area “.
“ Find out who Melinda Archer has been in contact with also her parents. Have someone tail them”.
“ Yes Mr Chase “.
I sat there going over everything in my mind. Would she go this far? Would her parents help her ?. I was sitting there when I heard the doorbell. I opened it and Detective Ryan was standing there. I walked in and he followed me to my office.
He Told me everything Jameson said, nothing different.
“ I know it's only been a year but Rachel Jaques will be released on probation in three months”.
“ Okay,I'll let my wife, mother-in-law and father-in-law know. I think We may have another issue”.
“ Meaning?”. I told him about Melinda and her parents.
“ I'll keep an eye on them”.
“ I want to visit Sam” , I said looking at him
“ For fucks sake Chase. We both know Sam is a nutcase that has become a bit protective of your wife. You know your wife visits him right?”.
“ Yeah I know,she tells me. She was there last month,took him a birthday cake. I just need to talk to him”. I was desperate here ,he would know who ,when , where and how.
“ Fine I'll make a call and you can visit him today”.
“ Thanks.. I'll follow you. Give me a few minutes and I'll be there “. I went upstairs and she was asleep. I headed over to the main house. Angela was there. “ Mom, I'm heading out for a few. Tia's asleep , can someone Stay with her for me”.
“ Of course. I'll head over now”. Angela said. I walked out as I got into my car. The passenger side opened and Bennett got in. “ Where the hell are you going?”.
“ Wherever you're going “. He said matter of factly. I just shook my head.
After three hours we pulled up to the Penitentiary. He looked at me. We walked in with detective Ryan. He left and came back ten minutes later with Sam.
When he saw us he shook his head. He sat down and looked at us.
“ Something had to happen for you to come here. Or do you need help?”. He asked smugly.
“ Yesterday Someone was waiting for them to come out of the Mall. A black tinted SUV hit my wife and sister-in-law both at the same time. They were both pregnant and they lost their child “.
He sat up straight instantly. “ Okay “. I could see he was thinking.
“ Give me your phone “.
I pulled my phone out and handed it to him, I didn't even hesitate. He dialed a number and put the phone down on the table and put it on speaker. Someone answered on the third ring.
“ Caius , it's me”.
“ Shit dude, what's up? ,you good? ,you need help?, what do you need?”.
“ Caius . Yesterday a black SUV hit two women outside of a mall. Now these people are important to me Ciaus. If you don't want me coming after you, you'll find out who did it , how much They were paid and Who ordered it. You know I don't need to be out there to get to you “.
“ Shittt. I heard some rumbling. Okay I'll dig deeper for it”.
“ Good. Whatever you find out , just send the info to this number. Whatever message or order you get from this number you're to do it. I'll give you three Mill “.
“ Hell yeah. Okay pretty boy I'm going to get to work to earn that three Mill. Laters”.
The call ended and he just looked at us.
“ Caius will message you. Whatever you need just text him”.
“ Who exactly are you and How much power do you have?”. Bennett asked him. He smiled.
“ The two of you rule the business world and the world of let's say special contacts, I rule it. Doesn't matter if I'm Locked up, they know better than to do something that would put me at their necks. By tonight everyone will know anything against Your wives is a no go and if someone actually takes the Risk then let's say I put a bounty on their head and it'll be a warning against others “. He said calmly.
The fucking guy really was a demon and he was exactly what I would need to protect my wife and son. “ Give me your account number, I'll send you Five million”. Bennett said ,he just shook his head.
“ Na this is free of charge. Your wife helped me get a light sentence instead of the death sentence. So we're even “.
“ Times up” ,Ryan said, walking over to us.
“ Caius will message you. Take care of your wives and kids “. He said before walking away.
We were in the car heading home.
“ That guy is fucking dangerous “.
“ Tell me about it. It's better to be friends with the Devil than against him”. I said.
When we got home, everyone was in the main house,it was close to dinner time. She was sitting there looking at me. Shit. I looked everywhere else but at her. Later that night after I put the kids to bed and got into bed with her She was looking at me.
“ Where'd you go?”. She asked calmly. Shit.
“ I went to see Sam”. ,she sat up
“ Dominic you know he's crazy right?”. She said shaking her head. My phone began ringing. I saw it was Caius, I had saved His number. I didn't want her to hear but she was giving me that look. So I put the phone on speaker.
“ Hello?.”
“ So I know you're chase Which one I don't really care. I don't want Sam coming after me because if I Fuck up he won't stop coming after me until he's satisfied. Get out now. Get your family and get out. Hide them. Someone just put a hundred million bounty on Tia Chase , Allie Chase, Gideon ,Mia ,Maya and Richy Chase. Get your fucking family out now. I'll find a way to let Sam know and try to find Who it is” ,he ended the call.
She jumped off the bed and ran out straight to Gideon and Mia's room. I called Bennett.
“ What Dominic?”.
“ Get out of the house now. Get Allie and Richy and Maya there's a bounty on their heads “.
“ Fuck ” he yelled and the line went dead. I grabbed a shirt and ran out,I ran into the room, they were asleep and she was looking at them.
“ Leave everything, Let's go”. I grabbed Gideon and Mia and we went downstairs. She grabbed the keys to the suv. I put the kids in and she got in with them . I jumped in and just as I was about to start the car ,I heard the gunshots inside the house. I started the car and drove out. I saw Bennett pull out of his driveway.
“ Call Dad for me Babe”. She had my phone in her hands,her hands were trembling. She dialed and put it on speaker.
“ Dominic what's all that racket over there” ,Dad said.
“ Dad ,get out of the house,get Mom amd get out. There's a bounty on everyone”.
“ Shit . Okay we go our own way “. He said ending the call.
“ Dominic?”.
I know she was scared. “ It's okay baby. We'll be fine. Everyone will be okay , close your eyes and try to relax. Dad will call Collin and get them “.
“ Okay “. She said quietly.
I drove straight to Manhattan and went to the garage complex. It was Midnight. I parked the car and got out. I woke her up gently. “ Baby come on”. She opened her eyes and looked at me. I grabbed the kids and we switched cars. I got them into the pickup and we Left. We switched cars three times before I pulled up to the farmhouse, basically in a dense Forest area.
The sun was now rising . I woke her up and got Mia and Gideon and we headed inside.
“ Dominic, where are we?”.
“ Somewhere safe. It's already morning. Go take a nap or Do you want some breakfast?”. I asked her.
“ The others?”, she asked.
“ I'll check in with them “. Mia was awake now and fussing. “ I'll take care of her ”. She took Mia to the kitchen. Gideon was still asleep on the couch.
I ran up to the room and grabbed the gun and the Burner people. I went back downstairs and found her making pancakes for them. I dialed the first number and he answered immediately.
“ Are you, Allie , Maya and Richy good?. Okay at noon. Okay I'll check in with mom. Good”. I ended the call and called the other number. He didn't let me speak.
“ Yes dad, we're okay. Yes Angela and.. okay thanks Dad. Yeah around noon. Okay I'll see you “.
I ended the call and turned the phone off. She was looking at me. We sat down and had breakfast.
“ Bennett was the one that suggested we had a safe house for some insane reason. Now it's not so insane anymore. This is mine, Bennett has his and Dad has one. We don't know the location of each other's safe house. Shit my phone?”.
