John had barely slowed the car down when Randy jumped out and ducked under the yellow police tape. He saw Amber standing by the police car talking to patrol Officer Justin Gabriel. He could see she was crying and he could see her clothes and hands streaked with blood. He walked up to her, John and Ted only a few steps behind her.

"I just got this feeling that I had to see her. I came over and knocked on the door and she didn't answer. I got the spare key and let myself in. She was laying there, blood was everywhere. I know he did this to her. I know it was her husband Alex." Amber sobbed.

She spotted Randy and he wrapped her in a hug. He felt dizzy, like he was going to be sick. And when the stretcher came out of the house, carrying his little sister, her face covered in bruises, her blood staining the crisp white sheet, he felt like this wasn't really happening to his family. He handed Amber over to Ted and climbed in the back of the ambulance, grabbing Holly's hand. Amber sobbed on Ted's shoulder, Justin standing there looking at her sympathetically.

"You saved her life." He said. Ted nodded and he walked away.

"He stabbed her in the stomach Teddy. I don't understand how anyone could do that to someone they loved. I...just don't get what would drive him to do that."

"I don't know baby. I wish I did." He said. "Come on. Let's get to the hospital." Ted looked at John.

"I'll take the case. I promise you we will get him and help Holly get out of this." He sighed. "You sit in the back with Amber, I'll drive."

Randy sat in the ambulance holding his sister's hand as the driver drove fast to get her to the hospital. The paramedic in back was watching her vitals and trying to stop the bleeding.

"Is she going to be okay?" Randy asked the paramedic.

"I don't know sir. She has lost a lot of blood."

"What about the baby?"

"I don't know that neither."

Randy sighed and held her hand. "I'm going to make this okay." He whispered to her.

Chris arrived at Holly and Alex's house and saw the police. He knew something bad had happened. He got out of the car and headed up to the house. He walked up to the police officer nearest to the road.

"Can I help you sir?"

"I'm a friend of Holly Riley. Is she okay?"

"I'm sorry sir, she was rushed to the hospital."

Chris left and headed to the hospital. He had to know if she was okay and if the baby was okay. He called Wade on the way to the hospital and checked in. He didn't tell him where he was going. Wade was close to Alex in fact, Wade was another of the men that Alex made Holly sleep with. Chris arrived at the hospital and headed in.

"Excuse me, I would like to know how Holly Riley is?" Chris asked the receptionist.

"Are you family?"

"No but I might be the father of her baby." Chris said not noticing Amber, Ted, Randy and John nearby.

"Excuse me, did I hear you say you might be the father of Holly's baby?" Amber asked.

"Amber, right? Holly talks about you all the time."

"That's nice but you are?"

"Chris Irvine, Alex's boss."

"And you could be the father of my sister's baby how?"

"It's a long complicated story. One I'm not really proud of. Long story short, Alex would use Holly to cover his gambling debts when we played cards. And as favors for other things."

"Sexual favors you mean?" John asked. Chris nodded.

"You sick bastard. How could you let him do that to her? How could you do that to her?" Randy asked.

"Ted, take Randy and Amber to the cafeteria. I need to speak to Mr. Irvine." Ted nodded and he walked toward the cafeteria with his arm around Amber and Randy following close behind.

John turned back to Chris. "So, what exactly do you know about Holly and Alex's relationship?"

"I only know what I saw and what Holly told me."

"Alright. Tell me."

"When Alex would have a poker game with the guys from work, he would make Holly dress in a tight maids outfit. And then he would bet her in the last game and whoever won that game would get to have sex with her. Needless to say, almost every male working at the ad agency has slept with her."

"Did you try to talk to her about leaving him?"

"Yes, when she told me about the baby. I told her I would send Alex and the others out of town and I would help her get away from him."

"Why didn't you?"

"My business partner, Wade, wouldn't let me send them away and when I called Holly, she said things were good with Alex." Chris sighed. "I guess she was wrong."

"Mr. Irvine, would you be willing to say all of this in court?"

Chris didn't get a chance to answer when the doctor came out and Randy, Ted and Amber came back.

He sighed. The doctor looked around at them."Mrs. Riley..."

"Don't call her that. Her last name is Orton." Randy said.

"Holly suffered extensive damage to her abdominal region. We weren't able to save the baby. We did DNA against Mr. Riley and there was no match. The baby wasn't his. Holly lost a lot of blood and she's on oxygen to make sure there is no permanent damage from her being choked. We had to sedate her when we told her about the baby. She's sleeping now." Chris looked over at John. Alex had killed his child.

"You can count on it." Chris said causing everyone to look at him. "I will be more than happy to say whatever you need me to say in court." John nodded.

"I want to see my sister." Randy said to hm.

"You can but now she is sedated." The doctor replied. "She has a lot of bruises."

"I need to see her." Randy said again.

"I want to see her too." Amber added.

"Alright." The doctor walked through the doors with Randy and Amber behind him.

Ted, John and Chris stayed behind. John looked at Chris. "Do you know where Alex is right now?'

"He's at the office. He originally asked for the day off to be with Holly at the doctor's. But he came in a little while ago. I asked him why and he said everything went fine at the doctors. Something was off. That's why I left and came to the house. I had to make sure she was okay."

"Alright. I will call it in." John said getting his cell phone and calling the patrol to pick up Alex.

Randy and Amber walked into the room the doctor showed them. Amber gasped at the sight of her little sister. "Oh My God." Amber said softly. Randy could feel the rage burning inside his gut as he looked at her. He'd failed her. He hadn't protected her like he'd sworn he would. "She's going to be devastated when she wakes up."

"Yeah. Do you think he caused the other miscarriages too?"

"Probably."

Amber sat down one side while Randy sat on the other. This was their baby sister. The one they had always protected and now she was hurting so much.

"I'm going to kill Alex when I see him." Randy said as they sat there.

"Randy, can we focus on Holly right now?" Amber said. "I want to kill Alex too. I just can't believe this. How did we not know what he was doing or what he was making her do? What else did he make her do?"

"I don't know but we will find out." Randy took Holly's. He wondered too though. What did Alex make Holly do?
