Chapter 13.
Savage POV.
It has been hours as we wait on word that she is in the clear. The doors to the waiting room burst open and in walks Antonio, Teagan, Nate, and Nico. I stand and move to Antonio and he looks at me before his big fist lands against my jaw. "Where were you when this happened?" he stands over me as I crunch my jaw and lick the blood from my lip. I look up at him, his balled fists shaking with rage.
"Antonio, it isn't his fault. We will find out who did this to her." Teagan says as she tries to soothe her husband. He steps back, keeping his honey eyes locked on me. Blaze pulls me up as Ice walks in with Simon and Rosena.
Teagan clicks her fingers, and Simon hands her a laptop. "Ice, I believe you are the tech guy for the MC?" she asks, and he looks from me to her and nods his head. "Good, here. You will work with my team, finding where she was taken." He takes the laptop and heads to where Simon and Rosena have set up.
"We don't know..."
"I know what I am looking for. Don't forget Savage, I was an agent for RICO. Rosena, Simon, you know what to do." She says, giving her head a slight nod and they both smirk and start talking to Ice as all three of them type away on their laptops. "Where is Rebel?" Antonio asks. He is still raging.
"With my mom." I tell him, and he kisses Teagan on the head and walks away, talking on his phone.
"Teagan, I'm so sorry this has happened. I was at the clubhouse in a meeting when I got the call. At first we didn't know it was Angel, not until we got there. This is my fault." I hang my head as she comes over and places her hand on my arm. "No, Ryder, it isn't your fault. But I have an idea about who it is..."
"The next of kin for Angel Maria Moretti?" We all look up as the doctor walks to us.
"I'm her ex. The father to her child. Is she ok?" I ask, but the doctor looks from me to Teagan.
"Are you her mother?" I gulp as Teagan nods her head. "Ok, I will explain to you what happened to her by what we found. I'm sorry this has happened to her and you all as a family. Please follow me. This is not going to be easy to hear." My heart stutters in my chest as we follow him into a room.
Teagan enters with Antonio and me. The boys stay in the waiting room. I sit down on the sofa, and Teagan and Antonio sit in front of his desk. He looks exhausted. He rubs his forehead as he sits down and logs into the computer on the desk.
"How bad is it, doc? She is going to be ok?" I ask, and he looks at me, his eyes sad and tired.
"Angel was brought in to us this afternoon. She has a fractured eye socket, broken nose, several broken ribs. Lacerations to her wrists from the zip ties that we assume where used to restrain her. She also has cuts to her abdomen. This part wil not be easy for any of you. I'm sorry to say this, but she was raped. We have performed a rape kit and a Screening for any sexually transmitted infections. She was clinically dead for a minute on the operating table due to the blood loss and the damage that was done to her. She is currently in the ICU where she will be monitored. I know this is hard to hear and I'm sorry to be the one to give this news." Rage, unbridled fucking rage is what I'm feeling hearing the extent of the damage.
"What concerns me will be her mental state when she wakes up. I will arrange for her to speak to someone. She will have PTSD from this and will close herself off. Don't push her As for the injuries she has sustained, they will heal. I will have the results on the screening rushed and should be with me in the morning. She is hooked up to antibiotics as a precaution and fluids for the time being. You can see her, but she is sleeping. I will send for one of the nurses to take you to see her." He says a sob comes from Teagan, and Antonio looks broken. This is my fault. This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
"Thank you, doc. Not for this news, but for everything you did to help our daughter." Antonio speaks as he stands and shakes the doctor's hand, and I do the same. Teagan is wiping her tears as we leave the room. Teagan is tucked under Antonio's arm as we re-enter the waiting room. My heart is broken. What do I tell Rebel? Why did this happen?
My chest feels heavy. I can't make any sense of this. Who would want to do this to her? Why? She has only been back three months and keeps herself to herself. Who has seen her as a damn threat? Who the fuck would do this to her knowing she is a fucking Moretti? Sitting in the waiting room, Blaze is next to me. Nothing is making sense and so we sit and wait to be collected to go and see her. When the doors open and in runs my parents with Rebel and behind them is Foxy. Great!
I see Teagan move before anyone can stop her and she punches Foxy in the face and is on her fighting with her. Foxy is screaming as Teagan punches her, pulls her hair and slams her into the wall. Antonio is trying to pull his wife off her, but Teagan turns on him and he backs off.
"You dumb, stupid little girl. I know it was you. You did this to my daughter and I will make you fucking pay for it. Mark my words Roxanne Foxy Barnes. You are dead!" Foxy whimper and cries.
"Get off me. I didn't do this. I would never do this. Ryder, tell her it wasn't me. I was with you." Teagan snaps her head towards me and lets her go.
"She was with you while my daughter was being beaten and raped!" Oh shit. She storms to me and punches me. Foxy is a fucking liar. Yes, she was at the clubhouse, not in the way Teagan was taking it.
"WHAT!" the collective scream as Antonio picks up Rebel looking at me.
"You are done, Ryder. Stay away from my family." He walks out with Rebel and Nico. Teagan glares up at me.
"Teagan, I wasn't with Foxy. I was in a damn meeting. She was at the clubhouse ..."
"Teagan Moretti, I am here to take you to see your daughter." I go to step forward when Teagan whirls on me, Nate standing beside her.
"Stay the fuck away from my family. You are not to be around her or Rebel. You will never learn, Ryder. Now fuck off back to your shady bitch and leave my daughter and grandchild alone." She turns and follows the nurse. Nate sighs and shakes his head.
"I'll speak to her, brother. I will keep you updated. Sorry Ryder." He says, patting me on my shoulder as he follows his mother. I slump back down in the chair.
"Ryder. I'm sorry." I look at my mom and she grabs Foxy by her hair and drags her out. When did my life become so fucking complicated?
