The Heaven Hill Series Chapter 108
Bianca could hear her heels clicking against the concrete as she made her way into the school. Her heart thundered in her chest this time for different reasons than the first time. She was no longer nervous about how she would do, she was now nervous about who would be there and what might be said to her."Good morning, Stacey." She did her best, but the smile didn't exactly meet her eyes as she signed in at the office."Morning, Bianca. Here's everything you need for your classes today." The other woman handed her a badge and what looked to be lesson plans. "Thanks." Their greeting was awkward and Bianca wasn't sure why. She cleared her throat and tapped her toe against the carpeted floor. "I wanted to say thank you again for the email you sent me after the last time I was here. I really do appreciate it.""You're welcome. I think you're a nice woman, and from what I've heard about you, you've worked hard to make your dreams come true. The kids need someone like you around. Y

Bianca fumed as she stomped out of the front door of the school. As Rooster asked her to do, Stacey had met her outside the office and given her what she needed to get paid for her day. Bianca hadn't missed that look in Stacey's eyes that said she knew something was going on. The secretary just hadn't been sure of what it was. Her blood boiled as she hit the front stoop and saw Liam, Jagger, and Rooster hanging out in the parking lot. She wanted to turn and walk towards her car, but if she did, she would never get a mad on like this again."Fuck it," she mumbled and made her way to over where the three men lounged against a police cruiser and their bikes. Her heels sounded against the blacktop, and she knew by the frequency of the clicks she really should have been running."Hey baby," Jagger greeted her, opening his arms for her.She moved so that he couldn't wrap them around her body and held her finger up. "Don't 'baby' me. I'm furious at the three of you."Jagger took a mom

Bianca sat on the couch, her legs in Jagger's lap. She studied while he flipped through files on an iPad he had pulled out of his bag. She asked quietly what he was doing, but he had only grunted and indicated he was looking for something that tied everything together. She made the decision to just let him come to her when he was ready. As she got a little bit more comfortable, the two of them heard footsteps coming up the stairs outside and a knock at the door."You stay here," Jagger told her as he stood up, pulling a gun from behind his back. He made sure one was in the chamber and walked over to the door, slightly pulling the curtain back.She stiffened, not sure who was on the other side of that door. It made her nervous not to know just what the fuck was going on. This had never been the life that she lived, but she knew that with Jagger here this would be her life from now on, and she took that for what it was."It's the guys," he told her, putting the safety back on the g

Jagger awoke the next morning to his phone ringing incessantly. The first time he reached over and shut it off. In seconds it rang again."I think someone is really tryin' to get in touch with you," Bianca grumbled, putting her head under her pillow. It wasn't his pre-pay so Jagger knew it wasn't Liam or one of the other members of the club. "Somebody better be fuckin' dead. It's 5 a.m.," he growled into the phone."Sorry, but I figured you would want to hear this."Jagger recognized Rooster's voice, and just like that he was awake and sitting up, his mind working on all cylinders. "Talk to me.""I took my suspicions to my superiors yesterday. With what evidence we had—I embellished where yours came from slightly—they issued a search warrant for Raymond Tucker's house and his office at the school. We are executing that search warrant today. I'm giving you a personal heads up. I've also called Liam."Jagger reached over and shook Bianca awake. "Are you teaching today?" he a

"What do we know?" Jagger asked as he rushed to Liam's side in the parking lot of the school."I haven't been able to talk to Rooster that much, he's been with the feds, but Money Bags is walking around at this point. Somehow he got into the school after they put it on lockdown," Liam explained."Even though this wasn't supposed to be that dangerous and they 'had everything under control'?" Jagger could tell that Liam was holding something back. "Where is Bianca?""She was in the library with the class that she was shadowing for the day," he told the younger man, running a hand through his hair."But what are you not telling me?""At some point," he cleared his throat, "Money Bags went to the library and took Bianca out. He's got her, and they aren't sure what he wants to use her for."At that moment, Jagger felt complete and utter rage. The words he had spoken to her, warning her of what could happen, replayed in his mind. Why hadn't he insisted that she stay home on this

The two of them went down with a loud thud, both of them grunting as they hit the side of the metal table. Bianca could feel the coldness of the gun in her fingers, but her shoulder ached something awful from where she had hit it on the way down. Blood dripped from her forehead, remnants of where she head butted him moments before. It stung as it ran into her eyes, and she wanted nothing more than to reach her fingers up and wipe at them. That, however, would require her letting go of the gun."Give me the gun, Bianca," he told her.She wasn't sure if he expected his gruff voice to scare her into giving it back or what, but she wasn't about to fall for any game he wanted to play. Rolling them over, he landed so that he lay on top of her. Money Bags was heavy compared to her, and she fought to drag breaths into her lungs."No!" She struggled, bringing her knee up, catching him between the legs.That gave her just enough time to right herself and stand up, pointing the gun at him

Jagger did his best to enter the hospital room quietly and not bother Bianca. As he pushed the door open, he spotted Meredith sitting in a chair at her bedside."You don't have to be quiet," she told him. "They had to give her a mild sedative about twenty minutes ago. So she'll be out for a few hours.""What happened?" he asked as he sat her stuff down before walking over to kiss her forehead. As his lips touched the skin, she stirred slightly before relaxing into sleep. He could tell she was more relaxed because he didn't see her eyes moving behind the lids."She had a little bit of a freakout. Nothing major," Meredith assured him. "She was in shock and I think everything just crowded in on her. She really wanted you, and the on-call doctor told her that you hadn't arrived yet. Her blood pressure bottomed out, she started shaking, and her teeth started chattering. So they gave her something to calm her down. Nothing really heavy duty. Just something to make her relax."He nodd

Jagger sat on the porch of Doctor Jones' office.Waiting.He had allowed two weeks to go by. Two weeks in which he had wordlessly given Bianca the space that she requested. He had let her stay at her own apartment, not pressuring her to stay with him. The way she tensed every time he came near, the way she refused to meet his eyes, the way she shrank away from anything resembling a real conversation between the two of them. Now, he was ready to move forward—tired of waiting on her to admit she needed him. Instead, he was going to make her see just how much she needed him in this journey with her.Meredith had been right on many of the things she had assumed when she handed Jagger the card for Doctor Jones. He did have issues that needed to be worked on—just like he knew Bianca did. They had issues together. In the past two long, lonely weeks he had spent without her, he'd worked on himself. Now, more than any other time in his life, he was equipped to handle whatever she needed f
