Chapter Twelve

Red

Waiting fucking sucks. This helpless feeling in the pit of my stomach is making me sick. What if Nadia is in there losing our baby and I’m out here pacing like a stuck pig? What if I lose both of them? Is God playing a cruel joke on me? I’d never forgive myself if something happened to either Nadia or our unborn child. I will burn every corner of every state to find Lattimer if something happens to either of them. My cold, dead heart finally started beating again and now there is a chance I will lose the two people who make me feel alive. I don’t want to be numb anymore. I want to live. I want to feel. I want to love.

“Red,” Kensi asks quietly from the comfort of Aftermath’s arms. “What is going on with Nadia? Why was she in so much pain?”

I stop pacing and turn to look at my best friend’s Ol’ Lady. She has tears welling up in her hypnotic eyes and I release a deep sigh. “We need to wait for the Doc to tell us what’s going on.” It’s not my place to tell Kensi about the baby. If Nadia does lose it, the last thing she’ll need is pity. This will be her choice to tell Kensi or not.

Exleigh and Syvannah are next to the door, holding onto each other and crying. I owe these two my life for protecting Nadia and the baby for the last few months. I bend down so I’m level with them when Exleigh looks up at me. My throat clogs and I can’t find the words I want to say to these two. She offers me a small, timid smile and a nod of her head. I rest my hand on her shoulder and Exleigh doesn’t flinch. Syvannah stops crying long enough to look at the two of us through red-rimmed eyes. She grabs my hand and gives me a gentle squeeze. I hug them both, telling them with my actions how much their sacrifice means to me.

Watching these two, I swear by everything I am, I will protect them with my life. Not only did they save my woman and baby, but they also saved me in the process. For that, they will always have my protection and the protection of the Royal Bastards.

“Exleigh and Syvannah, I want to tell you thank you. With everything the two of you have done, you will always have my protection and the protection of the Royal Bastards. Whatever the two of you need, just ask and it’s yours.” I clear my throat to hold back the tears.

“Thank you, Red.” Exleigh acknowledges. Syvannah nods her head while tears stream down her face.

I stand up and continue to pace, waiting for someone to tell me what is going on. I haven’t heard any screams or sobs. Nothing is coming from the other side of the door and that worries me.

Capone and Danyella come down the hallway a little while later followed by Dagger, Torch, Daisy, Blayze, Monica, Derange and Jezebelle.
