I went home to get some sleep after finding out the prison visiting hours, I was really worried about Steve, he should be here next to me. I had no idea who would take him, Darren didn’t have many friends, a lot of people hated him. They only liked him walking in the door with their drugs, it didn’t take a rocket scientist to figure that out. As I got home I put on one of Steve’s shirts as I climbed into bed. I tossed and turned trying to wrap my head around going to visit Darren tomorrow. I was worried what else they would ask me to do if this was only step one.I figured if Darren had a clue then he was probably in on this, but most likely he was the one who arranged it all. There was no talking Darren out of anything though, if he was planning something it wouldn’t matter if I were nice, crying, hurt or mad. He’s reaction would always be the same, he was incapable of empathy.I woke up earlier then I needed to be as I got up with the kids and made them breakfast, I saw my fathe
I nodded as I looked him over, he looked good he actually looked healthy. Maybe him and Bethany together was a good thing.“I’m only here for my clue.”He shook his head, “I’m sorry I don’t know what your talking about.”I looked into his eyes and he was genuinely confused, I began to get nervous I was doing this all for nothing. He could see the worry on my face when his confused look turned into a large smile,“Maybe I’ll only give you the clue if you sit here and talk to me.”I was so angry I wanted to jump through the glass and hit him, “Tell me where he is Darren please.”He began to laugh, “I told Steve when he was here he had to pick between you and Bethany and guess what he couldn’t even pick. So I picked for him, he has Bethany. You know Kay, I’d always pick you over anyone. You were always my one, I wouldn’t even need to think it was always you. Even though we are going through some stuff right now, I know your my girl. You always will be.”I looked at him and he was very
As I walked out of the prison, my stomach was in knots. I couldn’t believe Steve already signed the annulment. I still had 3 more clues to go, my stomach turned to think about what they would be, I sat in the car and thought about rushing to the courthouse and signing them and making it back for his 3rd clue, but I really didn’t want to go sign that paper. I knew if I didn’t then someone would come for me eventually and sign it, as I glanced through the parking lot I saw the lady guard who checked me in. When our eyes met she gave me a wave, I rolled my window down.“Did Spencer help you find your sister in law?”I shook my head, “No he’s being stubborn, she left her newborn daughter with me and my husband and I just need her to sign a page to pass the rights over. She sent us the documents but missed a spot, I can’t register her into anything without a guardian signature.”I seen her nod, “She usually comes to visit but I bet she’s just calling today. She seems so out of her mind.”
I watched as Steve walked the officer to his car and waved goodbye to him with a big smile on his face. I watched as everything happened, if he were really abducted then wouldn’t he say something to him. He looked completed fine, he scanned the area a bit before walking back into the house. He could of easily ran no one was watching him right now but he walked back inside.I watched the house a bit longer trying to understand what I just saw, it made my stomach turn as I kept thinking about what I saw. If Steve were here he would say before you get mad let me explain, that things are never as they seem. But right now things sure seemed bad.I stayed park a bit longer as things stopped moving at the house, when my phone rang I looked at the caller ID and it was the unknown number. I was nervous to answer, but I needed to understand a bit more what was going on. “Hello”I heard Steve’s voice, “Hey babe”I felt my stomach turn as I heard his voice, I didn’t want him to know I knew where
I headed home, I wasn’t too worried about this clue, Jeremy was young and I knew he wouldn’t remember this. That meant there were only 2 clues left, that made my stomach turn, what else could he ask of me. I spent the rest of the day spending time with my father and the kids before he left, I felt guilty being away from the kids so much lately. I just wanted things to get back to the way they were.The kids were all glue to me as I played with all 3 of them, I couldn't believe how big they were all getting. Jeremy was beginning to have small conversations and do a few little things himself, Heather was walking and saying a few works and Junior was beginning to crawl around and baby babble. He made me laugh so much he would watch the other two walk and I would stand him up and he would try to figure out walking with such a determined face.Once my father left I got the kids in the bath and ready for bed, I had a text from the Unknown number Unknown Number: Steve would like a bag pac
He paused for a moment, “Okay Ma’am, we found a body in Junction creek this evening, prints came back to your husband, Steve Reid.”I starred into the dark, I shook my head. “There is no way! I talked to him a bit earlier, he was okay. I did everything he asked.”I felt the tears fill my eyes As I tried to process everything,“I guess you didn’t listen did you.” The officer spat out.I looked around the room, it was pitch dark. I looked at my phone, there was no call tonight. It must have been a dream. I was trying to calm myself down, as I thought about what happened in the dream. I ran towards the window and saw our car parked outside. I immediately ran from room to room checking on the kids and searching for Steve.The kids were all sleeping but there was no sight of Steve. I looked at my phone and saw the unknown number text messages, I guess only part of it was a dream.I put a robe on and headed outside to the car, I opened the door. The car wasn’t locked and it had Stev
Steves POVI couldn’t sleep as I was thinking about what Darren had said, he really wanted me to pick between my sister and my wife. I knew he wanted Kay and he wouldn’t stop until he had her, it pissed me off the way he was locked up and still controlling our lives.I heard my phone ding with a text message, I reached over and saw a message pop up,Unknown number: Meet me at 512 Front Street in Rockwood. Don’t be late or your sister will pay the price.Following was a picture of Bethany with a gun pointing to her head. She looked like she was crying for hours. I was about to wake up Kay when I got another text message,Unknown number: She’s only the first one, next will be one of those rugrats, then another then another. How do you think your wife will feel when I make you both watch all your kids get pegged off one at a time.I was fucking pissed at this point, it was one thing to threaten my sister or my wife, but not my babies. They were innocent in all this. I wrote a quick note
I drove home thinking about everything Darren said, there is no way I could go through with this, he’s forcing me to sleep with him in order to let Steve be safe. I continued to shake my head as I thought about it all. I decided it was time to go to the police station, there is no way I’m doing this. Before I headed home I stopped at the police station and found the cop who arrested Darren, I was happy he was there. I explained everything I knew, he didn’t say anything besides listened. When I was done explaining everything he took a deep breath,“I wish you would of came to me sooner Kay, I feel bad you’ve been going through all this yourself. I don’t understand what Steve is thinking. Do you mind if I look at the messages you got.”I nodded and passed him my phone, he was looking through them when my phone began to ring, I saw the detectives eyes lit up as he passed the phone to me, “Put it on speakerphone.”I nodded as I answered,“Hello?”“Hey babe did you make it back ho
As we entered the house, I glanced everywhere it was literally perfect, he listened to every think I liked and didn’t like from every house we looked at. I couldn’t stop smiling as I made my way to each room.I felt tears coming down my cheeks as I pulled Ian closely, “Thank you babe.”He hugged me back, “Maybe we will get luckier here trying to make a family, we have 1 less thing to stress about now.”And that’s the first thing we did, we stripped our clothing off and tried our luck as we had hot crazy sex all over the new house. We spent the next few days planning our move and picking colors and every chance we got we would try our luck in the new house. Once we got back home we posted Ian’s house for sale and it sold immediately. I was so anxious to pick the boys up and show them the house, as I got there I was so happy and Steve noticed.“Was it a good few days?” He asked me giving me a curious look.I nodded, “Yes Ian got my dream house built for us. It’s only an hour aw
I felt my heart completely stop as I began to panic “Surgery? What happened? I thought he was okay and would be coming home today.”She seemed to panic a bit too as she tried to shuffle through the papers she was reading quickly as she kept looking up at me,“It looks like this is a different procedure Ma’am, he is in getting a small repair done from a previous injury.”I was taken by surprise as I looked at her, he was getting the surgery done so we could start trying for babies. I couldn’t hide my smile as I thanked her and walked back to his room. I sat patiently as I waited for him to get out. He came in walking a bit funny as I began to laugh,“Are you okay babe?”He gave me a awkward smile, “Yeah I’m just numb and it feels so weird.”I got up and gave him a tender kiss on his lips as he kissed me back, “I hear you went for the procedure.”He nodded, “Don’t get upset though if it doesn’t work Kay, the odds are really slim, promise?”I smiled and nodded, “It’s fine if it
Ian explained to us how when he used to have the odd run ins with Will he was usually just there, never anything to get him for even though he heard rumors he was a assassin there was never any proof. The last time he spoke to Darren , Darren mentioned Will was in there and was trying to bribe him into helping him out of there. Obviously he denied and I guess Darren put a hit on him.Although these were all theories there was no hard evidence of any of this being true although Will would be incarcerated for quite some time after this.We spent the next few days in the hospital as Ian was doing amazing, he was beginning to slowly get around the room and go for small walks around the hallways. I was constantly with him, I was terrified to leave his side. The last day in the hospital Ian had several tests to do before they would release him so I took a bit of time to go check on the boys. I was really excited to see them, it’s been a while since I saw them.I drove over to mine and St
I felt my stomach turn as I looked over at Ian, this means that this was all my fault. I haven’t heard from Darren or anything since I walked out of the visit with him. Jones told me he was going to look into a few things and go visit Darren, I was praying it had nothing to do with him. I didn’t want to be held responsible for Ian being shot.I sat next to Ian all day when I remembered I had to pick the kids up in the morning, I sent Steve a message,Kay: There’s been an emergency , I’m going to see if my father can pick the boys up tomorrow.Steve answered me quickly, Steve: No worried Kay, I’ve missed them. I’ll take this run off. Can I keep them until my next run?I looked over at Ian, I wanted to see my boys I missed them so much but I needed to be here for Ian. I didn’t want to leave his sight.Kay: Yes but I want to see them when I’m done dealing with this, even just for a little bit.Steve: Your always welcome here Kay.I rolled my eyes then I thought about it, I looke
I followed the nurse to the room, I saw Ian’s body laying on the bed. There was no movement and he was extremely pale. I slowly walked over as I glanced at the monitor I was trying to memorize all the numbers to keep an eye on them. I grabbed Ian’s hand when I noticed his ring was gone, I looked at the nurse,“Where’s his ring?”She gave me apologetic look, “I’m sorry ma’am it’s in his possessions, we had to remove it for surgery once he’s awake we can put it back on.”I nodded and gave her a smile, I noticed she was optimistic also. Once she left the room I sat there and starred at him he looked so peaceful, I looked at the monitor several times waiting for something to change. I began to talk to him,“Hey baby, I’m here. Your out of surgery now and you did so good. Besides dying on me several times but you came back so your forgiven. Now I need you to open those beautiful eyes of yours and come back to me. I don’t like spending my honeymoon like this. We are supposed to be plann
I was waiting as I saw several officers begin to pile into the waiting room, they just kept coming and coming, when I noticed Officer Cooper walk in, she sat with some of the other officers I could see she was crying as some of them were trying to console her.Detective Jones came and sat next to me with a coffee as he passed it to me, I gave him a small smile and thanked him. Just then I saw a woman walk in and she looked so much like Ian it made my stomach turn to see her. She ran directly to officer Cooper as I watched, I saw Jones tense up. I heard his sister say, “Cassie, what the fuck is going on? Did I hear right? My brother was getting married when this happened?”The officer glared at me and nodded as she gave her a hug. His sister backed away as she continued, “I guess congratulations Cassie, I always knew you two would work it out. I’m so happy my brother finally settled.”I saw her whisper something towards her and they both glared to me, I felt extremely uncomfortabl
I heard a lot of screaming around us as I looked up everything was in slow motion, the man who was looking at us was being handcuffed and dragged away, I looked at myself and I was covered in blood. I looked back down at Ian he’s eyes were large, he kept trying to sit up. I put my hands on him and pushed him back down, “Relax babe, relax.” I was trying to put pressure on his wound when I felt someone come next to me. There was a man standing there, he began to unbutton Ian’s shirt,“I am a physician at the local hospital ma’am, we need to see where the wound is.”I began to nod, I was in such shock I don’t think I could speak or move or cry. I just kneeled down next to him and held his hand as I starred at him. There was so much going on around us, I could hear screaming and crying from everywhere, I heard a lady shout,“The ambulance is 5 minutes out.”The doctor had his shirt pushed against his chest, he managed to spit out a few words,“I.. I… love.. you.. I’m.. I’m.. sorry
I smiled at him as I nodded. He returned my smile, “You know Kay, if you want a big wedding I’ll be happy to give you one.”I nodded, “What do you want?”He shook his head, “You in any way I can have you.”I laughed as I could feel my cheeks warm up, “How about we plan a party in a few months for family and friends to celebrate our wedding.”He smiled, “That sounds perfect.”Just then we heard our name, “Kay Myles and Ian Smith”I felt my stomach turn as I got up and followed Ian into the court room. I was beginning to shake as we made our way to the room. Ian handed me his ring as I looked into his eyes and I saw complete confidence on his face. I gave him a smile as I felt myself calming down, the minister began to ceremony, this was completely different then a traditional wedding. “Do you take Ian Smith as your lawfully wedded husband?”I smiled at him, “I do.” I took his ring out and slid it on his finger.He gave me a large smile as the minister continued, “Do you take
The next morning I woke up to Ian playing with my hair, our legs were tangled together as we were holding on to each other closely. I was never much of a cuddler but the small amount of sleep I did get felt like the best sleep I’ve ever had. I looked up to his eyes, “Good morning.” I whispered. He kissed me, “Good morning my fiancée.”I gave him a big smile as he looked into me eyes, “Are you still agreeing to marry me?”I smiled as I nodded, “Yeah I am.”He looked to be thinking, “When do you want to get married?”I shrugged, “I’m not sure, I’ve had the big wedding and planned out so many things and that didn’t last more then a few days. Let’s do something different this time.”He smiled, “Hmmm, like maybe elope? Or let’s go buy rings and go to the courthouse today?”I began to laugh, “You would marry me today?”He smiled at me, “Oh baby I would of married you the day my eyes met yours.”I began to laugh, the first time I met Ian was when he was on the team to charge Darr
