“We need good men. Men we can trust. Call Zane, Ace, Titan, Rocco, and have Darius and Steel know we still need them so they can take down this operation once we have Rose in our possession. Graham, gather your brothers and put security on Louisa and the other women as a precaution. Clark, Dane, and Knox, I need you to do recon with Ace and his brothers. We go in in four teams. No one is kept alive. Have them ready in fifteen.”

Rose was unsteady on her feet. She felt high as someone walked her down a hallway. She nearly tripped. She was wearing high heels and couldn’t remember why.

Her head was all over the place, her mind fuzzy, her vision unclear. She pulled at her top, feeling the smooth silky material and also a draft between her legs. She was wearing hardly anything and her breasts hung from the top. She tried pulling it up but the motion had her losing her balance. She heard muffled voices, could see a large group of men smiling, licking their lips and holding out money. Her eyes landed on someone she thought she recognized.

“She is very beautiful but resistant. We needed to drug her to get her to cooperate but she is strong. Has six lovers so she is up for anything. Let’s get the starting price of a hundred thousand. Who would like to start?” She heard them talking and her mind couldn’t process it. She got the gist of drugging her, resistant, and selling her. She shoved the hands away from her and went to run but then strong arms pulled her back.

She heard them cheering and then she slapped the man holding her and another man struck her across the mouth. He had a gun and she grabbed for it despite the dizziness she felt. She was determined to fight the drugs and she started shooting everywhere. There was chaos and then the gun was kicked from her hands and something stuck into her neck. She fell to the ground. The man locked gazes with her.

“She comes with a supply of sedatives to keep her ready, willing, and pliant,” he said and left her on the ground. Then she heard gunfire. People yelling. She tried crawling away. She was crying and felt the whole place was spinning.

“Rose. Rose, baby. Come on, honey, we need to move.”

She shoved at the hands. “No. No, don’t touch me, I’ll kill you,” she yelled.

Strong arms gripped her. “Rose, it’s Falco, baby. You’re safe, baby. We got to you. We’re all here,” she heard Falco say and she gripped onto him and tried to focus.

“What the fuck did they give her?” Remo yelled.

“Jesus, look what they did. She’s beaten up,” Slade stated and she couldn’t focus but she felt their presence and knew it was them.

Falco lifted her up into his arms. She didn’t know what was going on, just that her men were around her. She heard more yelling, a few more gunshots, and then the cold air hit her skin. She thought she saw lights and heard sirens but wasn’t sure. She was covered with something warm and she shivered and shook.

“Rose. You’re safe now,” Rome said to her and then she saw Mercury, but he was to the side and not getting close to her.

“I shot them, Rome. I killed them, Rome, like you showed me.”

“I know, baby. You did so good,” he said and she thought his voice cracked. She just kept rambling and rambling and then she felt like she was in a vehicle and it was moving and then there were bright lights and Niall was there.

He used something to look into her eyes. “I suck at fighting. I couldn’t stop Cuppa.” She raised her arm up and Rylan gently took it.

“I want you to just rest, Rose. I’m going to give you something to help get this crap out of your system. You’re going to get sick but it will get better,” Niall explained but she couldn’t focus on him or his words.

She rolled to the right and carried on. “Make it stop. Don’t let them sell me. I want to go home. I have to finish my painting. I don’t want to be here. I’m cold. So cold. Make it stop.”

Mercury rubbed his face and then slammed his fist against the wall. She was a mess. High on drugs, beaten, forced to kill to stay alive, and then nearly sold to a bunch of sick foreign assholes. It was all his fault. He fucking failed her and now she was suffering and would continue to suffer for hours with sickness and forever with emotional turmoil.
