“On it,” Stash said, and the two of them disappeared down the hall.
Gate and Deuce carried Tex through the front doors and into the great room, his arms across their shoulders, body hanging between them.
His head hung on his chest, feet dragging behind him, blood pouring.
“Oh, shit, T,” I whispered. “This is bad.”
“Told you they’d have to kill a brother to get to her. Did not lie about that shit,” Talon said.
Gate and Deuce made the open pool table, and Brick hefted Tex’s weight onto it.
Tex groaned, and eyes rolling, his head fell to one side.
“Where’s the doctor?” Brick asked.
“Sent Ryde to find one,” Gate said.
“He doesn’t have that much time,” I said.
Talon scrubbed his hand across his face, “You got anything for this?”
“He needs surgery, but I can get him ready,” I said. I cut a look to Talon, “Are they going to find my girl?”
“No doubt,” he said. “They find her, and I’ll go get her.”
“Okay then,” I nodded. And got to work.

Ryder
Ryder slammed on the brakes of his truck in the paved drive of a frilly little cottage on the edge of one of the swank neighborhoods in the city. He slid the road monster into park and then pounded across the drive to the front porch, and then he pounded across that too.
He didn’t bother knocking but put boot to door, splintered wood flying.
The woman’s scream told him she was in the back of the house, so he sprinted to catch her before she could bolt.
He found her at the back door and grabbed her in a bear hug from behind.
He got a face full of hair and a groin full of ass.
“Not gonna hurt you. Need you to come with me. Don’t fight,” he said, trying to keep the fury out of his voice.
“Who are you?” she asked, voice low and surprisingly calm.
But he felt her tremble.
“Doesn’t matter. Need a surgeon.Now.”
“You’re not bleeding,” she observed.
“My brother is. So grab whatever shit you need,” Ryder said.
He felt her head nod against his shoulder.
“Okay, let me go, and I’ll get my bag.”
“Might need a fuck of a lot more than a bag,” Ryder warned.
