Damian's POV

I have been sitting here waiting for Cas and Riley to come back, and wondering where the guys are. It's not like them to be gone for so long without letting me know what's going on. I look up and I see Alex and Cas both running up to me.

"They got Marc, man! Several guys ambushed him and drug him out! I tried to stop them but they overpowered me." Alex tells me.

"Oh, my god! They got Riley too! She went to check the back door and they took her. They knocked her out with a rag. I barely got away!"

"Shit, let's go. We need to get back to the house! Alex call everybody and tell them to get over there. We need to find them, now!"

We all hurry out and rush back to the house. Ales is on the phone and calling every available man. I can't believe they got them. I should have known they would wait till we relaxed, before they made their move. How can I be so foolish. We made it back to the house and Anthony and Jake are already there. We all head into my office.

"Alright, Jake can you pull up the cameras at the club and look at the footage for the last couple hours to see if we can see anything?"

"Yes, boss."

He pulls his laptop and begins to look at the footage.

"Goss, here it is. Looks like Marc is following that guy out the back and is jumped by several men. They hit him in the back of the head and throw him in the back of the head and throw him in the back of the van. Then a few minutes later, you see Riley walk out that same door and someone grabs her and puts a rag over her face and I see Cass run back and then they put Riley in the same van and they drive off."

"Do you see a license plate on it?" I ask.

"I'm working on it. It's hard to get. I think they have a blocker on it."

"What are we going to do, boss?" Anthony asks.

"Jake, work harder! Find me some answers, now!" I grab the bottle of jack off the shelf and pour me a glass and swallow it down. The burn in my throat helps cover the anger I feel for just a second as I throw the glass against the wall. "Argghh!"

Just then Cas walks in and places a hand on my bicep and I calm down some.

"Babe, doesn't the necklace Marc gave her have a tracker in it like mine?"

"Oh my god! That's right. I had forgotten. Doll, you are a genius! Jake, pull up the tracking software and find and find that necklace!"

"On it boss!

As he pulls up the software, the rest of the men straggle in and I let them know what is going on. After a few minutes Jake is yelling for me. I quickly ran back to him.

"What is it? Tell me something good!"

"I found them. They are in a warehouse down by the pier."

"Alright men, grab the gear and we are out. I need a few men to stay here with Cas."

"I want to come with you. She is my friend."

"No, you are staying here out of danger. I can't concentrate on them if I have to worry about you!"

"Alright, but I don't like it."

"I will let you know when we have them."

"You better!" I kiss her lips as the men grab all the gear and we head out.

"We're coming for you, guys. Hang on!"

Riley's POV

Where am I? I try to open my eyes and they feel like lead. I try to move and I can't. What is going on? I slowly open my eyes and blink several times. My head is pounding. What has happened? My eyes focus and I look around to see I am in a warehouse and I am tied to a chair. I look up and I see Marc is hanging suspended by his hands with chains. He is unconscious and his head is hanging low. I can see bruises already forming on his body. They have ripped his shirt off.

"Marc, baby! Wake up! Please wake up!"

"MMfmmmf." I see him slowly raise his head and his face is a bloody mess. Both of his eyes are swollen shut and there is blood coming from his nose.

"Princess, are you okay? I am so sorry."

I see tears fall from his eyes.

"Marc, I am more worried about you! Where are we? How are we here?"
"I... think... we... have.. been.... taken by William."

"That would be right." William says as he walks into the room with a sinister smile on his face. "See, I told you that I would get my revenge. I know that you two had something to do with her disappearance. I want to know what you did to her!"

"I don't know what you are talking about." Marc whispers.

"Lies, all lies! I know what you did. Now tell me!"William screamed. He walked over and started punching Marc in the ribs and heard him grunt. Just give in Marc, I couldn't live if he killed you.

"Please Marc, give him what he wants!"

"I'm not lying."

"Well, let's see what little Riley knows. I bet she tastes pretty good too."

He walks over behind me and leans down and kisses my neck. I try to hold back the vomit that threatens to rise. His hands move around to cup my breasts as he gropes them. Marc starts trashing in his restraints.

"Don't you fucking touch her! When I get out of these, you are dead!"

"What makes you think you are getting out of those alive?"

He stands up and walks back over to Marc.

"You're nothing, but an evil wannabe. You're sick! Don't touch him!"

He walks back over to be and raises his hand to slap me across the face. I taste blood and run my tongue over my lip to feel it is split.

"Leave her alone! She had nothing to do with it!"

"So this is how I get you to talk."

He slaps me again, and my cheek starts to sting. He then punches me and I hear my nose crack.

"Stop!! Please, leave her alone!"

"Tell me what I want to know! It's a shame I have to mess this pretty face up. I would have loved to find out how she is in bed. Maybe I can just cover it up. I bet she is very tight." He says as he runs a hand up my thigh and under my dress to place it on my core and I wince as he pubs over my panties. "MMM, I can't wait to try this out."

"Mother Fucker! I am going to kill you!"

"I told you, you will not be able to do anything about it!"

He walks over to a table and picks up a knife and starts twirling it in his hand as he walks over to Marc. He places it against his shoulder and drags it from the shoulder to the hip as Marc tries not to scream.

"Tell me!" No answer from Marc. William rears back and stabs his thigh, and twists it. Again, Marc holds back a scream. He shoves the knife into the other thigh and twists again. "Still not going to tell me?" Marc looks at him and spits in his face. "That wasn't very nice. He rares back and hits him in his face again. I scream and he turns around to come at me again.

"How about you, what do you know?"

"I know nothing!" He goes to hit me again and his father walks in. "We don't hit women, son."

"But she has to know something."

"She is not who we are after. Just an end to a means."

"But, dad."

"No buts, son."

"Oh well, I guess I can play with her later."

They go back to Marc, trying to get information out of him. He wouldn't budge. He soon passes out from the beatings and blood loss. I am now crying. I don't know what they want and they have almost beaten Marc to death. They have stopped for a moment and are talking about their next move when I hear a loud commotion and gunfire. I soon see men burst through the room and tackle William and his dad. Then I see Damian and Alex fly in. Alex comes over to me and unties me.

"Are you okay, Riley?"

"For the most part. You have got to help Marc. Is he still alive?"

"Yes, he is but barely. We have to get him and you to the hospital." Damian says as he helps to get him down.

The other men have William and his dad tied up and sitting on the floor. I walk over to them and take one of the men's guns and point it at them.

"Now you finally get to see your sister again..... In hell."

I shoot them both between the eyes and walk off, and I start to pass out. Damian grabs me before I hit the floor.

Damian's POV

I pick her up and yell back to one of the guys.

"Get this cleaned up! Someone grab Marc! We need to get them both to the hospital! Let's move out!"

We head out to the van and speed to the hospital. I pick her up as the others pick up Marc and yell for help. The staff brings out two gurneys and lays them down as they rush them back inside. I try to follow and am held back.

"He is my brother and his wife. We need Dr. Smith."

"I will get him. Don't worry, but you all need to wait in the waiting room. They need room to work on them." The nurse says as she runs off and I go back with the others and pace. Soon Cas comes running in. She runs to me and I wrap my arms around her and nuzzle into her neck as I start to cry.

"Where are they?"
"They are working on them. Marc is really banged up. Riley passed out. We haven't heard anything yet."

"Oh my god!"

Just then Dr. Smith comes in.

"Hey guys. Riley is resting in her room. Marc is still in surgery. He has several deep lacerations, several broken ribs and broken cheek bone. He also lost a lot of blood. I will let you know when he is out."

"Can they be put in a room together? I think it would be better for them." I ask.

"I can arrange that. Would you like to see Riley?"

"Yes, how is their baby? She was not to be stressed and I think this was a lot of stress."

"I will order an ultrasound to check on the baby. Follow me and I will take you to her. I will also arrange for them to be together."

We follow the doctor to her room and step inside. She was lying there asleep with wires and tubes coming out and I felt sorry for her. She is here and her husband is in surgery. I walk over to her and place my hand in hers as Cas sits on the other side and does the same. Her eyes slowly flicker open.

"Hey" she whispers.

"Hey, bestie. How are you?"

"I'm okay. Where is Marc?"

"He is still in surgery. They will bring him here when he is ready." I answer.

She begins to sob and Cas starts to caress her head.

"Hey, it will be okay. He's a fighter. He'll get through this."

"The baby?" she asks quietly and touches her belly.

Just then her doctor comes in rolling the ultrasound behind her.

"Alright, let's check on the bean shall we?"

Riley raises up her gown and pulls the blanket down. The doctor squirts the gel and places the transducer on her belly. We instantly hear a strong heartbeat. Riley starts to cry again.

"See, bean is strong just like daddy." Cas smiles as she squeezes Riley's hand.

"Oh, thank god!"

"Don't worry, we got you." I tell her as I try to hide a tear.

"Do you want to know what the sex is?"

"No, not until Marc is with me."

"Alright then, the baby is doing great, but I want you on bed rest for two weeks."

"Don't worry. I have got her until her husband does." I smile.

Riley's POV

We sit and talk for a long while till I start to feel sleepy and nod off for several hours. I wake up later to see that Marc is now in my room. He is hooked up to several ivs and wires coming off of him. He looks so fragile. I just want to go over and lay with him. He is very pale and I see he is hooked up to a blood transfusion and fluids.

"They have him in a medically induced coma so his body can heal faster. Damian says.

"Will he be okay?"

"The doctor said that everything went well. He is strong and will come back to us soon.

"Can you help me up?"

"You need to stay in bed."

"Please I need to touch him. I need to make sure this is real."

"Alright, let me help you."

He walks over and helps me to get up and walk over to Marc. I brush the hair back from his face and kiss his lips.

"Please, baby. Come back to me. I can't do this alone. I need you. Bean needs you."

I climb up next to him and wrap around him trying not to disturb his wires. I miss him so much. Damian leaves me with him and goes to stand at the door, making sure no one disturbs us. Giving me time alone with him.
