Avery's POV
Man why me I'm just minding my own business sitting in the park when these three people start arguing about money and one guy pulls out a gun and shoots the other two, I hold back a scream before I haul ass outta there. Once I get home I am watching the news when my picture flashes across saying the cops are looking to question me. I am still freaking out when my front door flies open and in comes two bald muscular guys and they try to grab me but I break free and go down the fire escape where I see another guy in all black. "I see that Styles sent the Club after you." he says. The guys follow me down into the alley so the guy in black fights the big one as I pick up a two by four and go to town on the other guy who pulls a gun before I knock it out of his hand. Once me and the other guy knock them out I go to shake his hand and he cuffs me." What the actual hell?" I say. "Look I'm Mark Calaway and I'm with the FBI so you're coming with me whether you like it or not." he said before throwing me over his shoulder and putting me in the back of his SUV. Once we reach the FBI headquarters I'm pissed so I kick him when he tries to get me out. He growls as he throws me over his shoulder and carries me into the building. "Police brutality, violence against a citizen, kidnapping. Harassment, asshole jerk off kidnaper!" I scream at the top of my lungs. "Calaway put her down and shut her up,then bring her to my office. Vince is waiting." a woman dressed way too nice for this place said. "Yes ." Agent Calaway said before dropping me on the floor.
Mark's POV
Once I took the cuffs off of her the witness seemed calm but then she slapped me and said "You don't put people in cargo holds, you jackass." "Wow you got a way with women bro." Glen said as he walked over to me. "Look lady I mostly deal with criminals who don't come willingly, so I have to use force and I'm sorry." I said. "OK but my name is Avery James. Now Agent why was I taken?" she asked. "Well Ms. James I need you to tell me about whatever you saw in the park today."I said. "No not after I was almost killed cause you splashed my face all over TV." she replied. "Look those men will come after you again so your best bet is to help us and we will protect you." Glen said as he handed her a cup of tea. "Fine but we have to get my sister she is sickly and I'm the only one who can care for her. We have to go in a few hours when her nurse leaves." she says. "Once we get done talking to you we will take you to her but right now I'll send and officer to watch her house." I said as she looked up into my eyes.
Avery's POV
When we into an office were the woman from earlier and an older man are sitting they both look at me. "Good evening ma'am I'm Senior Agent McMahon and we just need to know what you saw in the park." the older man said. "Okay first off call me Avery, but anyway I was sitting in the park when I see three people arguing and then one of the guys pulls out a gun and shoots the other two before walking away. How did you guys know I was there?" I explain." Well once the undercover agents were killed we used the traffic cameras to see what happened but it caught the sounds and not the video it only showed your reaction." Agent Calaway said. "Can you identify the killer if you see him again?" Agent McMahon asked me. "Yes because I've seen him before he usually buys my sister an ice cream when I bring her to the park." I said. They showed me a set of pictures and the second center picture was him with that cocky look in his eye. I pointed him out and everybody got excited. "Take her to a safe house and you and Jacobs keep a twenty-four hour watch on her." Senior agent McMahon said. "What about my sister?" I asked. " We'll get heron the way." Agent Calaway said. Once we got into the SUV I was so scared and when we pulled up to my sisters care center to pick her up my stomach dropped as I saw her nurse laying on the ground dead then I ran to the area where my sister stayed when I was late my heart broke at the sight. My fifteen year old wheel chair bound sister had her throat slit and her eyes gouged out. I screamed before my world went black.
Glen's POV
Once Avery saw her sisters body she fainted and I saw a flash in Mark's eyes I haven't seen in ten years. He scooped Avery up and placed her in the back seat. He looked at me and said "Call the office report this and then get rid of your phone were going off the grid." Once we went to his house he put her in the back seat of his pick up as I locked my phone in the SUV, then he went inside and grabbed two duffel bags. We went to my house and I grabbed my bags. While we were on the road Avery woke up and said "That Styles guy killed my baby sister so I'm willing to go to court and say whatever I need to say." "Look Avery I'm really sorry about what happened to your sister and I hope you are willing to let us protect you." I said. Once we reached the ranch I was glad that Daniel was already there getting things ready when we pulled up he ran over to the truck and said " I got the room ready for her." Once we walked into the house I noticed how dizzy Avery looked if Mark hadn't been there she would've hit the floor when she lost her balance. "Hey when's the last you ate something kid?" Daniel asked her. "This morning before I went to work." Avery said. "Why do I feel like that's not true or you're leaving something out?" I said. "I'm hypoglycemic and we barely had any money for food." Avery replied looking at the floor. Daniel jumped into care giving mode. "Mark sit her in there on the couch, Glen get me a small bowl and some whipped cream."Daniel said as he began to wash his hand's. Five minutes later Avery was eating a fresh fruit salad with whipped cream. "Dinner will be ready in a little while so you can take a shower if you want to freshen up." Daniel said. "Oh man we forgot to get her some clothes I guess we can get you some clothes tomorrow and you can wear one of my t-shirts." Mark said.
Mark's POV
Once Avery went into the bathroom I felt relieved that I knew she was safe but I was also afraid that she would hurt herself. "Man this girl is a handful but if she can help us put Styles and his crew away then she's worth it." Glen says. I nod before going to get my bags from the truck, once I get inside I go to my room and pull out some clothes I grab a pair of my new boxers and a clean white shirt to give Avery to wear. I am about to knock on the bathroom door when I hear Avery scream so I force the door open while pulling my gun and I see Avery pointing at a spider I grab it and throw it out the window while Avery wraps a towel around herself and then I go back into the hall and grab the clothes, as I am handing them to her I see that the jeans and shirt she wore didn't do her justice, she had a very curvy body and I also noticed her grey eyes that seemed highlighted by her curly black hair and chocolate skin tone. She pushes me out of the bathroom where Glen and Daniel are standing looking at me crazy before I say " She screamed so I had to check it out and there was a spider so I tossed it out the window and gave her clothes okay." "I saw you Mark you checked her out and you liked what you saw." Glen said. I just growled and went back to my room. Later while we were all eating dinner I noticed that Avery was moving stiffly so I said " Avery are you okay?" "I think I pulled a muscle when I beat that guy in the alley today." Avery replied. " Mark what is she talking about?" Glen asked. "Well while I was fighting with Gallows she took a two by four and went to town on Anderson, she even knocked him out." I explained. "Wow she is a tiny bad ass huh." Daniel said. "Hey I'm not tiny just kinda short." Avery said. "Honey you can't comment on height you've barley got a foot on her." Glen said before kissing Daniel on the cheek. "Bro unless you wanna sleep on the couch you'd better stop talking about height with him." I say. "Big bro you'd let me bunk with you so I don't have to suffer." Glen said. "Speaking of sleeping where do I sleep?" Avery asked. "You'll sleep in the room next to Mark's and if you need anything just let him know." Daniel said as he went to clear the table. When Avery got up to help I stopped her and then pointed to my brother before saying "That's big foot's job if you do it he'll never be house trained." Avery giggled and that sound pulled at my heart strings. When I got up to head to bed I noticed that Avery had dosed off while reading a book, so I lifted her up and carried her to bed once I was sure she was comfortable I slipped out and went to bed myself. About two a.m. I hear her scream out "AJ no please don't kill me." I rush into her room was she is sitting up and she begins to cry. I go over and comfort her. Once she calms down a little bit she look at me and says"I lied about how I recognized the shooter he's my ex boyfriend and I was meeting him to tell him I'm pregnant. That's how his goons knew where to find me and my sister. I knew he was a drug dealer but he was always so sweet to me and he helped me take care of her, the reason we broke up was because he wanted me to let Gallows date her and that's just weird." "Avery I will protect you but I can only do that if you are honest with us. So is there anything else you need to tell me?"I ask her. "Well he said he had a mole in the FBI, I think he said his name was Finn something." Avery said as she leaned into me. I sat with her in my arms with my back to the headboard and my gun close at hand. I finally drifted into a light sleep.
AJ Styles' POV
So they found Avery and she saw me kill those guys in the park, I took out her sister I hope those two idiots get to her before the cops do. "AJ we tried to but that cop Calaway was there and she also fought back." Gallows said. I banged my fist on the desk it seems Calaway holds a grudge against me for killing his pregnant wife. When Balor walks in I hope he has some news on what's going on." They've got Calaway and Jacobs watching along with a secret agent implant to help, but they are off grid. I am trying my best to dig into their files but these guys have some deep cover work so it hard to decipher truth from old covers. I dug around in the girls background and recently she went to the doctor and she's about three months pregnant. I think the father may know something." Balor said. "I'm the father,so no go. I bet that's why she wanted to meet me in the park." I say realizing that if Calaway knows she's having my baby he may use her to hurt me.
