Book 3 Chapter 17.
Harmony POV.
Once we arrived at my family's private jets, I could see some of the members of the MC standing watch, armed to the teeth. Even some of the mafia guards were with them and some girls from the Mother's Revenge. They all rallied for me. It brings tears to my eyes.
If they didn't come for me when they did, this would have been a very different ending to these events.
The brothers and the mafia guards all averted their eyes when Maverick carried me towards the stairs of the private jet.
"No one shoots my cat or there will be hell to pay!" I say loud enough as Mystique walks behind us. Maverick groans and I know he is thinking I'm crazy. Maybe I am. But Mystique is unique and all I want to do is protect her.
Seeing her in that cage, scared and uneasy, broke my heart. She is a living, breathing, beautiful creature. She deserves better than that and I intend to give that to her.
"We need to sedate her and get her in a cage, Harmony. She can't just lie down. There isn't enough room." Maverick tried to tell me, but I'm bull-headed and I ignored his words. Besides, where would we find a cage big enough, tranqs, and a cargo plane for her on such short notice? We wouldn't.
"Mystique, come on sweet girl. Ignore the big bully." I say in a cooing kind of voice as she walks with grace up the stairs. The way her shoulders roll with each elegant step makes me smile. Could this be her first time having so much freedom? Has she been stuck in a cage all her life? Only allowed out to train and follow commands like she is some kind of puppet?
The things humans do all for greed and power. It sickens me, it really does.
Maverick carries me into the bedroom at the back of the jet and settles me on the bed as doc enters, giving me a full checkup. I know I've lost a bit of weight and have bruised wrists, throat, and ankles but I'm ok.
The door opens, and my momma steps inside and pulls me into a hug. She is sobbing and apologising for striking me, and I know it hurt her more than it hurt
me.
"It's ok momma, I know you did it to make them believe you were one of them. It's ok, I'm fine." I say, stroking the back of her head as we cling to each other.
“No matter, I shouldn't have done it, and it killed me to strike you. I will never raise a hand to any of my babies. Are you ok?" she says to me and I nod my head at her. She looks me over and turns to speak to doc and he tells her I'm fine. Nothing some food, fluids, and a long sleep won't fix. He isn't wrong. I could sleep for a week and eat my weight in some greasy food.
"Here, put these on and I'm sorry for making you wear that teddy and heels. But hey, you didn't fall over thin air, so that's progress." Seriously? She has to mention how clumsy I am? Thanks a bunch, mom.
I take the clothes from her and remove the shoes from my feet before I stand and walk into the bathroom and strip out of this scrap of fabric and pull on my pyjamas and hoodie. I scrub my face to get rid of the make-up and brush my teeth four times, floss, and swill with mouthwash, before I pull my long blonde hair into a bun before pulling the hood up over my head and leave the bathroom.
I leave the bedroom and see that Mystique is laying down resting her head on her front paws. The men are all wary of her and no one has moved close to her. But not me.noveldrama
I walk in my fuzzy socks and sit in the seat. She lifts her head and chuffs at me and I chuff back at her.
"You will be ok, I won't let anything happen to you." I say as I stroke her head. My dad's walk closer to me watching Mystique, but she doesn't move or even acknowledge them.
"Baby." I stand and hug them both.
"Dads, god I have missed you all. Thank you for coming for me. It could have ended differently if you hadn't." I say as they both tighten their holds on me before kissing my head.
"We will always come for our kids, no matter where they are in the world. Everyone has been looking for you. All that matters now is that you are safe." Dad Dante says and I nod my head against his chest.
"Where are the members of the Sons Of Hades and the mafia heads that were at that auction?" I ask because I don't see them anywhere.
"The members of the Sons Of Hades are with the Mother's Revenge and the mafia don's are with grandma's men. The Sons will be taken straight to the cells in the clubhouse and the don's well. They will be going straight to the DeAngelis family." Dad Dylan or Scythe, as he is known to the MC, says and I nod my head. I feel no sympathy for any of them. They all deserve what is coming to them. "Oh, there are some of the men from the Sons who helped me. They didn't want any part in the way the club was going. One being Hank's son, Lucky. They helped me and fed me, hell they even swapped out the drugs his father was giving me to keep me sedated. He is a good man and deserves a chance. Promise me you will sit down with him and discuss what he knows. Dad, this goes deeper than just the Sons and some don's." I tell him and he looks from me to momma and I look at her too and she nods her head at him.
"Ok, let's get home first. Erm, what are you planning on doing with that cat?" He asks and I smile as I look at now sleeping Mystique.
"I want to find her a permanent home, somewhere where she will have lots of space to run. She is unique, but until that time, I have decided she will stay with me. The club compound has loads of space for her to run and huge trees for her to climb. Please dad, only until I find somewhere suitable for her." I ask, making my eyes as big as they will go and pout even make my bottom lip quiver, and he rolls his eyes.
"Fine, but she is to wear a collar, and a tracker and if she looks at any member like they are dinner, then she will be caged and sedated." He says and I smile, nodding my head and he chuckles before he kisses my head and hugs me again. "I must be crazy." He mumbles, and I say nothing. I then say a quick thank you and hug each of our members before I take my seat, resting my head on Maverick's shoulder. He hasn't left my side since he carried me out of that place. He hands me a bottle of water and I drink it greedily before I settle down again.
"Sleep baby. I will wake you when we get home." He says and I nod my head and I climb into his lap and he is stunned at first, but I snuggle against him and he hugs me, kissing my head as I fall asleep in his hold.
