Summery Just as Kate is at her happiest a threat from the past resurfaces
Chapter 10: My Hero
"Fuck!" Esposito cursed loudly when the mic went silent. They knew it meant Josh had found the wire.
"I'm going in there" Castle started to open the van door
"Bro you can't just go charging in there" Espo told him
"He has my wife and daughter in there! I can't just sit here knowing what he's capable of! " Castle snapped
He refereed to her as his wife for the second time today Esposito envied him and Ryan too they were both so in love and so happy it made him think, as soon as Kate and Alexis were safe he was going to make a change he wanted more than booty calls from Lanie he wanted a relationship, he wanted love. He looked at Castle "We'll get them out bro" he promised strapping on his gun as Ryan did the same.
The three men exited the van and started to make their way across the park.
Kate squirmed under Josh's weight trying to push him away. He looked down at her "You used to be so beautiful but now you're flawed from this" he runs his hand down the scar on the side of her body "and this" he touches the scar above her breasts roughly. She cringed when he touched her it was nothing like Castle's gentle, loving touch. "You're flawed but still quite fuckable" he ran his hand over her breasts and down her stomach. She started to squirm and fight again "You might want to stop that Kate it might just coast baby Castle its life" he snarled his hand presses down on her stomach.
Kate felt sick to her stomach he threatened her unborn child, Castle's baby "No...no please" she cried
"All you have to do is shut up and enjoy the fuck" he told her the fingers coiled around her panties starting to move the fabric down her legs but he stopped she hoped that meant he changed is mind but no such luck he ripped her panties from her body in one swift motion. She could hear her daughter's muffled cries from the bathroom.
"Jo...Josh please let Alexis go first" she pleaded. She didn't want her to hear her mother's screams as she was assaulted
"I don't think so" he stated his hand traveling south. She cried harder when she felt his hand there she tried to close her legs to fight him off but he used force to pry her legs open "You're making this harder on yourself you dumb bitch" he snarled as he roughly pressed a finger into her causing her to scream "You're not wet" he commented pulling his finger away"Don't I turn you on" he asking gripping her waist.
"Oh yeah sure I'm suppose to be turned on by a man who beat me and raped me and is about to do again" she yelled her voice cracking more tears spilled from her eyes.
"You wound me Kate" he replied sarcastically as he pulled his zipper down the rest of the way exposing himself to her. Her whole body started to shake as he moved between her legs preparing to take what didn't belong to him.
He was just about to push into her when the door flew open and a voice yelled "Kate!"
When they barged into the boathouse Castle's heart stopped when he saw Kate lying on the cold floor almost naked with Josh's hands on her about to... He couldn't think about it.
Kate heard screaming and felt Josh being pulled off of her. She was cold and scared she cried out and flinched when she felt a hand on her arm.
"Kate its okay" Castle whispered "Its me"
She blinked and looked at the man kneeling beside her frightened, concerned , loving blue eyes looked back at her "Riā¦Rick" she cried softly shivering.
Castle shrugged off his pea coat and wrapped her in it. "It's okay you're safe now" he promised
Alexis fled out of the bathroom after Ryan untied her she froze when she saw her mom on the ground wrapped in just. her dad's coat and her dad sitting just inches from her. Castle looked up seeing the red marks on his baby girl's face then back at the woman he loved shaking in fear naked and bruised. He got up ad slowly walked over to the handcuffed Josh.
"You sick son of a bitch" he punched Josh and didn't stop
"Castle!" Esposito pulled him off Josh. "Stop" he commanded
"Hi hit my daughter and Kate, he...he almost" he stopped tears formed in his eyes
"I know man and he'll pay but right now your family needs you bro" he motioned at Kate who wouldn't let the EMTs near her and Alexis crying in the corner.
Castle knew he was right he walked back over to Kate she was crying and screaming
"No!" she cried "Don't touch me! I want Rick" she sobbed pushing the EMTs away
"Shh its okay Kate I'm right here, always" Castle promised kneeling back down beside her. She grabbed on to him fisting his shirt in her hands burying her face in his chest as she sobbed. He moved to sit down with her in his arms. He noticed Alexis watching them he motioned her over. She raced over to him
"Daddy" she sobbed falling into his arms next to Kate.
He held his family tight never wanting to let them go.
"Sir" a voice interrupted "We should really get both of them to the hospital"
Castle looked up there was an EMT standing there he didn't look much older than Alexis. He knew the kid was right but Kate wouldn't let him go. "Okay but I'm staying with her" he whispered as he stood up carrying Kate in his arms and his little girl walking right beside them.
Esposito and Ryan watched their brother carrying the woman he loves to the waiting ambulance and then glared at Josh handcuffed in the back of their cruiser he was going to pay for what he did they'd make sure of it.
Castle sat in the back of the ambulance Kate still in his arms and Alexis sitting on the gurney. Kate grabbed him suddenly crying out in pain "Kate what is it" Castle asked 'What's wrong"
"Th..The baby" she cried"Oh God n...no not again" she sobbed fearing she was losing the baby
Castle held her whispering words of love telling her it would be okay promising her that she and the baby were going to be okay it was a promise he hoped he could keep.
