Clay turned his head towards Tig once again but this time it was in shock. "How do you know Liberty, Tig?"

Tig shook his head and ignored Clay and walked around him and over to where Liberty was standing letting Chibs look at her side. "Jesus Christ Sweetheart what in the hell happened to you?"

Liberty turned her head at the voice next to her and her mouth dropped open when she saw who was standing next to her. She didn't stop to think about what she was doing as she threw herself into his arms. "Oh my God. I've missed you Dad."

At Liberty's words Clay's, Gemma's, Jax's and everyone else's mouth dropped open and Clay said "Why did you just call Tig your Dad? From what your Uncle told me you didn't know your Dad."

Liberty looked up at Tig with a question in her eyes and he nodded before looking at Clay and saying "She called me Dad because I am her Dad. Carmen and I never told Michael that we got together. After Carmen got pregnant she left but if you remember correctly I would disappear a couple of times a year well during those times I disappeared I was visiting Carmen and seeing Liberty. I didn't want anyone knowing about Liberty or Carmen because I didn't want them to become targets. I haven't seen Liberty in a couple of years but we still kept in contact by talking on the phone. Now before you ask any questions I want to know what my daughter is doing here and who in the hell stabbed her."

Liberty looked at her Dad and sighed because she knew that she couldn't keep this from him. She also looked around and saw everyone else's eyes on her and she knew that it was time to finally tell them everything. "Mom got involved with a man named Richard. When I first met him I never liked him. There was something about him that set me on edge. I tried telling Mom about it but she never listened. One day I came home from work early and I heard him on the phone talking to someone about two young girls that he knew would just be perfect for this person's business. He wanted to use Heather and Harmony to make money. When I told Mom about it she didn't believe me. A couple of weeks later I found out he had been touching my twin sisters sexually and making them do things to him when Mom wasn't around. At that point I had, had enough and I told Mom that we were leaving. I knew that Mom didn't want to go but I wasn't giving her a choice. I was tired of seeing the bruises on her that Richard would put there and I was tired of hearing her defending him. Mom actually told Richard that I was making them move and then let him into the apartment. She didn't even try to stop him when he was beating on me or when he stabbed me. I was able to knock him out and I called the police and pressed charges. Then I finished packing us up and I moved us here."

As Tig listened to his daughter talk rage poured through him. He couldn't believe that Carmen had let her abusive boyfriend beat on their daughter. As he thought about that his blood boiled even more as he realized that she must have realized what Richard was doing to Harmony and Heather also. He wanted to find the man and make him pay but he couldn't do that since the man was in jail right now. He looked down at his daughter and then pulled her into his side. "I'm sorry Princess. I'm sorry that I wasn't there to protect you. I knew that I should have had you come and live with me when you first told me about the guy."

Liberty shook her head and then placed her head on her dad's shoulder. "You tried to get me to come here Dad but I couldn't just leave Harmony and Heather there with Mom and Richard. As much as I love Mom right now I really hate her. I just don't understand how she could do what she did."

Tig held onto Liberty but looked at Clay. "We need to do something. Liberty, Harmony and Heather are all SAMCRO. Nobody gets away with hurting our family."

Clay nodded and looked at Liberty who was leaning heavily on Tig like she had used up all of her energy. "We'll have Juice look up any and all information he can find on this Richard character. And Tig? I know that Liberty is family since I'm her Uncle. Do you remember five years ago when Michael and I went to San Diego? I met Liberty then. We will make sure that her and her sisters are safe. We also need to have a little chat with Carmen."

At that Liberty opened her eyes back up that she had just closed. When she saw the look not only on Clay's face but on everyone else's face as well she knew that she wouldn't be able to talk them out of it. Part of her felt happy that someone other than her would be talking to her Mother about what she let happen to her sisters and her but another part of her felt like she should speak up. But instead she took in a deep breath and let it out. "I hate to ask but do you have any tylenol or anything that I can take? I'm in a lot of pain and I have to get back home soon. I still have the whole house to unpack since my Mom and sisters aren't helping."

Clay looked at Gemma who nodded and said "I'll go and get you something to take Baby Girl. And then I'll drive you home and bring the Prospect with us. He can help you and I unpack. You shouldn't be doing it all yourself."

Liberty opened up her mouth to protest but Tig cut in saying "Princess let Gemma help. In fact I'll come and help too. Gemma is right that you shouldn't be doing it all by yourself. It isn't right of your Mom to think that you will."

Liberty just sighed and nodded her head. She knew better than to argue with her Dad even if she hasn't seen him in a while. Instead she just laid her head on his chest and closed her eyes. She finally felt safe enough that she could relax. She finally felt as if she wasn't alone and that she didn't have to be strong anymore.

Clay looked at Liberty and he couldn't help but smile as he saw how relaxed she was in Tig's arms. He still couldn't believe that Tig was her father but as he looked at the two of them together he could see the resemblence. He also knew that Liberty would be watched over and not just because he ordered it but because Tig would order it as well. "Actually I think we can close the garage early today and all go over to Liberty's house. There may be some work there that we can do plus we can take a look at her car and see if we can find out what's wrong with it."

Jax looked at Clay and then back at the girl in Tig's arms and nodded. "I'm up for it. I'll grab Hap and Op and we'll shut the garage down. We'll meet you outside with the Prospect."

Clay nodded and then looked at Tig. "You okay brother?"

Tig took his eyes off of Liberty and looked at Clay with a hard look in his eyes. "I will be brother as soon we get a hold of the fucking bastard who dared to touch my daughter."

Clay nodded and didn't say anything. He knew that the rest of today and the next coming days were going to be long and hard. He stood up and headed out of the club house but before exiting he looked over his shoulder at Tig. "Once Gem gives Liberty the pain meds and she takes them come on out. Liberty can either ride with Gemma in the car or you can take her on the back of your bike."

He saw Tig nod and then walked out with Chibs, Bobby and Piney behind him.
