Chapter 23
"Are you coming or what?" I ask with my brow raised.
"Good Lord Wild Fire. You're truly going to be the death of me." A whisper is heard through the silent and shocked room.
Damien.
Soon after Damien's words, Mac snaps out of her trance and a huge smile is placed on her face. Her perfect teeth are on display. Everleigh and Mac begin to walk towards me.
"Are we sure you and Draven hadn't had a second daughter?" Dawson finally asks.
"If I didn't know our sister well enough; I would have thought Emery was one my sister's children." Dylan says. Kaiser laughs out. All three guys come out and Kaiser drapes his arm over my shoulder.
"How's my niece feeling today?" Kaiser asks. I stare up at him in a puzzle. His niece? He's talking about me?
"Me?" I question with confusion.
"The one and only one I'm talking too." Kaiser says as he looks down at me with loving eyes. I don't have uncles or aunts so I'm not used to being called a niece. But, it makes my insides warm up and my own bright smile forms on my small face. I hold back a small wince from the pain. I lean against Kaiser as if he's my safety barrier. My face rests against his side and surprisingly the pain in my face slowly starts to fade.
Maybe he's my own personal healing guard.
"I'm great.... Erm Uncle." I answer with honesty. I mean my face hurts a little but I'm fine. I truly am.
"That's awesome to hear, Wild Fire. Let's get to the 'meeting' room." He replies. In a swift motion, he has grabbed ahold of my arms and swung me onto his back. He begins to race through the halls and all you can hear is my laughter bounce off the walls, echoing down the hallway. We come to a huge rustic mahogany door. He shoves open the beautiful door and walks in. He grabs a chair and slides it between two other chairs at the head of the table. He places my feet on the ground and walks beside the chair he had moved and sits down.
"That one's yours." He comments. I plant my ass in my seat next to him. Soon the room begins to fill with bodies and the last one to enter is a girl I hadn't seen before. She looks like a model. Her hair is bright and colorful. Her skin looks almost flawless, she has freckles littering her face. She takes a seat on top of Kaiser's lap.
Tinsley?
I watch as Reaper, well Draven, takes his seat at the head of the table. He sits right next to me. Mac sits on his right leg and smiles up at me. If I remember correctly, this seat I'm sitting at should be Kaiser's. Why did he just give up his seat for someone like me? Damien sits on the other side of the table, three chairs down from me. Once everyone has been seated or has taking their positions by the wall; Draven begins to speak.
"As everyone knows, Mac and I have become fawned of Emery. We see her as one of our own, as one of our children. The Serpent's Enforcer has decided to deliver a message to our second chapter's Road Captain. His message was assaulting her. He gave her a concussion and fractured her orbital bone."
His words make me feel fuzzy inside like Kaiser's had once done. Mac grabs my hand and holds it like a mother would. It comforts me even more.
"Today, we're going to come up with an iron fool proof plan to make these sons of bitches pay. I will not allow someone to hurt an innocent. And I damn sure won't allow someone to lay a finger on one of my children, this includes Wild Fire over here." Mac begins to explain. A smile finds its way on my face once again. Do they just take any child in and make their feel as if this is where they should have been their entire life. Make them feel loved constantly. If so, I've missed out on it my whole life. My parents work too much to be around to make me feel loved. When they're home, you can feel it. But, I only got to see my parents for at least an hour in the evenings. Well my mom at least. Father, he works a lot. He comes home when everyone asleep so I don't remember what a father's love is supposed to be. I don't have grandparents to understand what their love would be like. But Bear and Kate act just like grandparents and they show their love when they see me. Denver, he loves me to the moon and back. I never have to wonder about his love. Silas, he loves me but he is also busy with his own life and football. Allie, she hates me. She's never shown an ounce of love. Not since she's became popular eight years ago. So, love is a foreign emotion.
"I want his head on a stick. Who dares hurt my grandchildren will feel the wrath of Bear." Bear growl out like a Grizzly. I can see why he's gotten his name Bear. He reminds you of a Bear.
"I second that comment!" An unknown guy speaks. He's an older Draven. Draven let's out a chuckle.
"Of course you would father." Draven says with a smile of his own. So that's why they look alike.
"Wiz. The floor is yours." Kaiser says to a guy with a laptop sitting in front of him. I watch as whatever is hidden on the laptop opens up on the walls.
"This is the blueprint to their den as they call it. As you can tell everything is mostly open. Upstairs is where all the bedrooms are. This however.." He pauses for a moment. A new image is on the screen. "Is what their den looks like from the outside, thanks to satellite and camera hacking." Wiz finishes off. A red dot points to the main gate. It's old and doesn't close properly. It's held tight with a chain that could easily be cut.
"As you see the gate can easily be broken into. A fence lines their whole property. Bushes edge the fencing. As we look at the den itself..." He stops again. "It's a cluster fuck. Easy to break in. They don't keep guards at the gate. Nor are guards around the property. Again, it's easy to break into. A few windows have holes in them from previous fights. Some look like bullet holes. There's a tree on the right side that is against their wall. Another tree is in the backside against the back of the den. There's no guard dogs. If we show up, they'll be unprepared because they aren't taking precautions like we do. We don't have each access to our home. We don't have trees agains our home. We don't have a shitty gate. We don't have fencing.... We have 10 foot tall wooden privacy fence. We have Mac's guard dog along with guards at the gate and walking the premises. We're always prepared for an attack. This will be an easy take down." Wiz rambles out.
Once he has finished, everyone begins to throw out ideas. Well, it looks like we're going to head out after dinner time.
This should be interesting on a full stomach.
