Chapter 8 - The return of the witch


previously:

"Steph is going to help, arn't you?" I nodded, somehow I really wanted to help her, she may have been only five years younger than Ranger and the eldest of Ranger's sisters but right now she seemed to be just a young girl who wanted her only daughter back.


Daniella just stared at me shaking her head. 'I'm sorry for all the trouble I've caused you.' She muttered a tear falling down her cheeks, 'I guess you didn't really deserve it.'

I smiled and shook ym head, 'don't worry bout it, lets just get your little princess back from the wicked witch of the east.' Both Daniella and Ranger laughed at that. I smiled, I don't think I have ever heard Ranger laugh at anything.

The moment didn't last long as Ranger caught himself though and the laughter stopped but he was still watching me. I caught his eyes and a hot flush crept through my body, Ranger obviously noticed as his eyes darkened and I started looking for a way out. I knew what those eyes meant and what they meant shouldn't be happening in a garage full of cameras and his younger sister.

Daniella had also noticed a shift in her brothers moves because at that moment she cleared her throat loudly, 'jee bro, I don't think I've ever seen you look at a girl like that, I think I may even have blushed.' Ranger's eyes swung to look at Daniella, 'what do you mean?" He asked looking at his sister with his searching eyes that would have a mime spilling his guts.

Somehow though Daniella resisted, 'do you think we could work out a way to get Kaylie back now?" She asked her violet eyes hard and demanding. Ranger nodded and after grabbing my hand led us into the elevator. Hitting the fifth floor button he turned to me, 'you don't have to stay up babe, I can drop you at the seventh floor if you're not up to it.' I shook my head suddenyl feeling rather tierd but determined to help anyway.

Ranger smiled hit 200 watt smile at that and pulled me closer to him by my hand which he still held tight. As the elevator doors opened onto the fifth floor we found it packed full of guys. Ranger went imedietly into combat mode moving through the crowd to Tank's side. I simply stepped out of the elevator and stood next to Daniella as we both looked at the mass of men.

'Have you ever seen so many Rangemen in one room?" She whispered into my ear.

"They look kinda funny crammed in her though." I whispered back and was rewarded with a small smile.

We both turned as Ranger made his way over to us his eyes full of disbelief. As he reached us he picked up my hand almost unconciously and looked into my eyes. I could feel pulses of heat rush through parts of my body to places I didn't know I had. 'How do you always manage to get on the wrong side of the worst guys?" He muttered starring at me with what I took to be a look of worry before it vanished under his blank expression.

'Who is it? Daniella asked to my right, she had obviously been listening in to more than our conversation because her violet eyes were looking at me in a concerned way. 'Bigwaz, he works for the Greek Mufia.' He muttered and was rewarded with a small gasp from his sister.

"I'll go and get Kaylie myself, you better deal with this.' But she was stopped by three of Rangers men but only one I recognised as Bobby. "Dan... we're coming, I wanna have a few words with this person myself.' I laughed at the 'person' remark, Ranger was obviously upset enough to use person instead of her name and at that moment I couldn't me more proud of him.

I found myself ushered into the lift and then pulled by the same hand that Ranger seemed determined to hold on to towards a different car from Daniella and the guys. 'We'll take my car babe.' He said as he let go of my hand and slid into the drivers seat of his turbo.

As we drove out of Rangeman towards the bond office I couldn't help thinking Connie and Lula will be kicking themselves if they arn't there to see this. Though they should be there at 5.30, Connie often closed early, I hoped for their peace of mind it had been a busy day.

As we turned onto the main road the office was situated I saw Connie's, Lula's and Joyce's cars in the lot. This was going to be very interesting.

Thought I woud leave it on a cliffhanger, sorry it took so long to update but I know where I'm going now. Just have to find time to do it in between all my year 12 work to write it. Please review it makes me happy and encourages me to continue!!!
