Chapter 14

When they pulled into the clubhouse lot, Abel caught sight of his grandmother waiting for them, as soon as his seatbelt was unbuckled; he jumped out and ran into her arms. "GRAMMMA!" he yelled he excitedly. Gemma laughed and pulled him up into her arms, "hey baby!" She pecked Tara on the cheek and led her inside where Cherry and Lyla were waiting. Lyla was apparently comforting Cherry. "What's wrong?" Tara asked sitting down next to them as some croweater poured her a cup of coffee. "She's worried about Half-Sack" Lyla said quietly. "I know it's kinda stupid" Cherry sniffed "But it's only been a month since he was stabbed. It feels like he's always at risk. And I know that it just comes with the life, but I'm just so scared I'll loose him." Tara put a comforting arm around her friend's shoulders. "Don't worry Cher, they'll keep him safe. They won't let anything happen to him. There's a lot of them down there." Cherry hugged her back feeling a bit better.

When they pulled into the abandoned lot, the Sons found Alvarez and some of his guys waiting for them. Clay and Alvarez embraced, "Good to see you brother." "You too" Alvarez replied, then turned to Jax "Jax, I'm sorry about this, I can't imagine what you must be going through right now." Jax nodded and clapped him on the back. "I really want to thank you man, this means a lot, I really appreciate it." "Don't mention it." Alvarez shrugged, "But we have a little favor to ask." "Anything" Clay said immediately. "It's not as simple as that." Alvarez replied. "Ever since last night, we've been on this." He pulled a picture from his cut pocket and handed it to Clay.

"Hector Salazar-excommunicated, we have reason to believe he's working with your guy. Surveillance caught him conversing with someone matching your guy's description. Car was a late model, sedan, with blacked out windows." Jax stared at the photo, he remembered this man, it had been a while but he knew this face. "He wasn't to happy with our new partnership, so he left. Sounds like he's got a pretty big grudge against the sons. He's got valuable information about us, it would be a big help to us, if he happened to be collateral damage when this all goes down." "Not a problem" Clay said "Happy to help." "We appreciate it brother" Alvarez replied.

They followed the Mayans into town, trailing them until they came to a beaten-down looking motel. One of Alvarez's guys had been waiting for them. Jax guessed Alvarez had had guys stationed out there all night; just to make sure Kohn didn't escape. Alvarez led them inside. "We didn't want to do anything you got here" he informed the Sons. "We figured you'd know how to handle it" Jax nodded. "If you guys need to take off we can take care of it." Alvarez shook his head. "Nah man, we're brothers, until your family's safe, it's gonna be pretty hard to get rid of us." Jax chuckled as they pushed their way through the crowd of bikers to the front desk "Thanks man." He nodded.

Clay was loosing his temper. "Look kid, it's really fucking important that we find out where this guy is." In his hand he held Kohn's mug shot. "And my friends over here, said they saw him come in here last night." When the guy still wouldn't give it up, Jax lost it. Not realizing how angry he was until he had him pressed up against a wall, his knife pressed into the side of the man's neck. "This guy, he's a bad guy, me I'm a bad guy, the only difference is that that guy doesn't have a knife to your throat"" Jax grabbed Kohn's picture and held it up to his face. "Where. Is. He?" If a room full of armed bikers didn't get the message across, that sure did. "24B" the kid choked out. "I'm not sure, but that looks like him." Jax nodded, and slid his knife back into his holster. "Appreciate it" Chibs snarled shoving him aside as the group moved forward.

When they came to the room, Jax gave signal as the Sons & The Mayan's pulled out their guns, poised to shoot, as Bobby kicked in the door.

But they stopped short when the door was almost kicked off its hinges.

Tara, Tara everywhere, on the walls, on the ceiling. Her pictures covered every surface. Even Abel was spotted among the grotesque collage. Some were taken at angles where Kohn could only be right next to her. Jax spotted a few of himself, His eyes scratched out angrily. His fiancé's image was everywhere. It was sickening. Alvarez stepped back in shock, as some of his men shifted uncomfortably. Jax felt fear, disgust, and anger all at once, as he began to tear down everything he could get his hands on. Bobby & Chibs managed to hold him back. Reminding him that this could be valuable.

In a matter of minutes the room had been torn apart and searched from top to bottom. Alvarez found Salazar's information written down. They appeared to be planning to take down not only the Mayan's but the Sons as well. "Jax! I think you'd better see this!" Juice was sitting on Kohn's bed, apparently looking at a piece of lined paper. Jax took it from him and immediately felt his inside curl. "Baby names" he said out loud. The realization dawning on him.

"Their baby names"

AUTHOR'S NOTE

Hello readers! I seem to be unable to stop writing! Oh well at least it's productive! I know this wasn't my very best, but I have a lot planned. Oh that reminds me! I seem to need your wise advice! So I read your reviews (thanks by the way & don't worry I loved the idea of a Tig/Tara convo maybe in the next chapter.) So I am planning an attack on Jax by Salazar. (Not fatal of course) What I want to know is when. I was thinking that they'd stay at the motel waiting for Kohn, and Tara would spend the night at the clubhouse. But Jax decides to head back, and then Salazar gets him on his way back. (Maybe a car accident.) OR: I can wait for the Salazar kidnapping. Jax could try to save her, but gets shot or something, as their getting away. You know like in season 4 when the guys in the van grabbed her. OR! I could always do both. So as soon as I hear from you I can start on the next chapter. Which I hope to get up before Xmas!

As usual I love you guys and hope to hear what you think and would like to see happen! As I said, I am planning a Tig/Tara convo, as someone requested. Maybe he'll comfort her when Jax gets hurt (if I do the first option!) Oh and if you would like to see Tara's engagement ring, check out the link I posted on my profile! I love you guys! Please review or PM me with suggestions

Thanks and Happy Reading!
