Welcome to Charming: Our name says it all.

Savannah Erin Telford hoped that what the sign said was true. Twenty four hours ago she had fled the only home she had ever known. Hearing her parents being murdered and then seeing the aftermath once the men had left the house, and unknowingly her alive, she had packed as quickly as her devastated self could. It had been 17 years since she had seen her uncle. Filip Telford was run out of Ireland by the very man that was responsible for her being in California right now. The last time she had talked to him was on her 10th birthday, her mother Moira and her father Seamus broke ties with him just after that, it broke Savs heart to never hear from him again but she hoped he would be willing to not just see her, but save her now that she needed him more than anything.

Pulling back onto the road after stopping to get things straight in her head Savannah drove the little clunker Honda she had been able to purchase with her meager saving towards one Teller Morrow Garage. Supposedly that was where her uncle now lived and worked. As she saw the sign in the distance for her destination her heart started racing and her hands shook, fearful that this would not end in her favor. Pulling up alongside a row of very similar looking motorcycles she took a deep breath and exited her vehicle ignoring the group of leather clad men staring in her direction and headed to a door with a sign indicating it was the office.

Gemma's POV:

Gemma Teller-Morrow was having a bad day, she didn't want to be bothered by anyone. Her mind was brewing with the news that one Tara Knowles was back in town. To make matters worse Tara had saved her grandsons life, not that Gemma wasn't grateful, she was, she just didn't want Tara to have anything else working in her favor in order to get back in Jacksons good graces. The last thing Gemma wanted in this life was that tart getting back with her son after breaking his heart and fleeing to Chicago ten years ago. A light knock on the door and a light lilting Irish accent broke her from her harsh thoughts.

"Excuse me ma'am I was wonderin' if you'd be so kind as to help me out. I'm lookin' fer someone."

Glancing at the girl standing in the doorway of the office Gemma appraised whether this newcomer was friend of foe. Taking in the sad eyes and shaking hands she knew that this girl was not here to hurt anyone, she was the one that was hurting. Taking pity she gestured for the young girl to sit down across from her.

"What can I do for you sweetheart? Who are you looking for?"

"I'm lookin' fer me uncle. Last I 'eard 'e was workin' 'ere as a mechanic."

"Well what's his name, we have lots of them here, though I'm pretty sure I know which one you're talking about right now."

"You'd probably be right ma'am. 'Is names Filip Telford, and I'm 'is niece Savannah."

"Ah, Savannah Erin Telford. I've heard all about you. Last I heard though is Chibs didn't have any contact with you or your family. Is he expecting you? And by the way please call me Gemma, Ma'am makes me feel old."

"Aye. Gemma, I remember me uncle mentioning you when he called last. Me mum and da are the ones who cut off contact with 'im. I've missed 'im. No one is expecting me. I didn't want to call 'fore I got 'ere cause I didn't want no one knowin' I was comin' here. "

Gemma felt sympathy flood her when the young girl's eyes filled with tears. The look on her face was heart breaking and Gemma knew this meant trouble. But, instead of feeling anger towards the girl for bringing problems to her family she felt the strong desire to help this girl. Something was definitely terribly wrong and she knew it was time to bring Chibs in.

"Sweetheart, you're safe here. I don't know what's happened to you and I'm not going to ask. I'm sure that you would rather tell everyone at once so you don't have to talk about it over and over again. Let me go find your uncle. You stay here and I'll be right back."

"Aye, you're right about tha' Gemma. Thank ya so much fer you're help."

Chibs POV:

Laughter surrounded him as he watched the prospect trying to figure out how to remove the deer from the car in front of him. Poor lad was a vegetarian. Really, who doesn't eat meat? Something was seriously wrong with this boy, sides the fact that he was missing a ball. Chibs couldn't help but to laugh at the thought. Poor boy, serving his country only to lose a nut. Who would have thought?

"Chibs!"

Gemma's shout broke him from his thoughts and his brow furrowed when he saw the look on her face. Gemma was not one to look distressed for no reason so it was always a reason to be on alert when she is approaching you looking like this. He heard his brothers around him quiet down with attention drawn to the clubs matriarch fastly approaching them.

"Gem? What is it? What's wrong?"

"Chibs, there's someone here to see you. She's in trouble. Looks like she's had a rough few days to. I need you to come with me now to the office."

"Who is it Gemma? I'm not expectin' anyone."

"Ma? What's going on? You look stressed out, who's here?"

"Chibs, it's your niece. Savannah. Jax I think you should probably round up everyone. There is definitely something going on and from the sounds of it she's going to want to tell all of you at once." Chibs froze when he heard who was here to see him. Savannah. His little Savvy was here all the way from Ireland. He knew something horrible was definitely going on. No matter her age there was no way that her parents would let her come and see him. He hadn't spoken to her since she was a wee little lass on her tenth birthday. He loved his little savvy more than anything but her parents broke ties with him after they were being threatened by Jimmy O. There was nothing that man wouldn't do in order to beat down Chibs's spirit. In fact because of Jimmy O he had a very big secret that no one knew about, including the girl in Gemma's office. Wasting no more time Chibs jumped up and raced for the office, he could hear his brothers and Gemma calling out to him but all he was focused on was seeing his little Savvy again.

When he finally reached her his heart stopped. She hadn't noticed him yet so he took the time to look her over. She was beautiful. Freckles covered her face and her long light red hair was flowing down her back. She looked like she was a tall slim girl with curves in all the right places. She was definitely going to make and impact when his brothers saw her.

"Savvy?"

"Uncle Filip! Oh Uncle Filip I'm so happy to see you! I've missed you so."

She immediately jumped up to embrace him and as soon as she felt his arms come around her and hug her tightly the flood gates opened and she couldn't stop herself from crying out and clutching him. All the emotions and horrible images from the past forty-eight hours finally breaking through. Chibs was mystified by her reaction. He had no idea what to do other than to hold her and try to soothe her until she calmed down enough to tell him what was going on.

"Savvy, luv? Tell me wha's wrong. I canna' help ya if I do no' know what's 'appenin' to ya darlin'"

"Oh uncle, it's awful. Ma and Da were murdered. I 'ad to find you, I could no' let 'em find me. Please you 'ave to help me. I dunno what to do now. If 'e finds me I'm dead, I know it!"

"Okay calm down. Let's go into the club house. Do ya want to tell me alone or do you want to tell my brothers to? There all wonderin' who the pretty bird is that came fer me and what's got Gemma so upset by it. She's worried fer ya."

"Can I tell everyone at once? I do not know if I could get through it more than once."

"Come along Savvy, I'll keep ya safe. Let's go see my brothers and you can tell us all what's wrong. But 'ave no fear lovey, I'm here now. I won't let anything 'appen to ya."

-Tig's POV:

Tig Trager was a hard man. He had lived a long and harsh life. The only time he really had a family to speak of before this club was when he was a marine. But even then people didn't really understand him. That's why he was so greatful to have his brothers and Gemma. But even surrounded by all of his club and extended "family" he was lonely. Many of his brothers had taken old ladies by now. Even Happy, his fellow killer was on the road to having an old lady. So where did that leave him? It was these thoughts that were going through his head when he first saw her. She was tall, curvy in a slim and sexy way. Long light and bright ginger hair cascaded down her back in silky waves. He couldn't see her eyes but he imagined they were killer, just like he full pouty lips, long lean legs and an ass he had only ever dreamed of seeing. Bending over to grab her bag out of her car he had a clear view of the most perfect tits he had ever seen. Not too big they looked to be the perfect size to fill his hands. Tig had always been a tits and ass man so she was like a dream come true for him.

Hearing that said babe was the niece of his very good friend and brother was like having a cold bucket of ice poured over his head. There was no way he would have any chance with her. Not that he would anyway, she looked young enough to be his daughter. He couldn't stop thinking of though. Now he was waiting anxiously for her to enter the club house with Chibs. From what he gathered from Jax and Gemma, something was seriously wrong in this girls life and she was going to need us and all the help she could get. Not having gotten the full story Gemma was unable to shed some light on the young girls pain. So he waited until finally the vision herself walked into the clubhouse. Her name was Savannah Erin Telford. And he wanted her, even though she was family to club he couldn't help but to want her. Especially after hearing her story.

That bastard. Tig wanted to kill him. He had never felt such white hot hate in his life. He wanted to find this man, tear him from limb to limb and kill him slowly and painfully for the pain he had caused in her life. Tig had never felt like this about anyone, it was then he knew that he had to have her, protect her, and make her completely his. He would devote the rest of his life protecting her if he had to. Hopefully she would give him the chance to do it, and hopefully Chibs wouldn't kill him once he laid his claim.

Savannah's POV:

It was awful. Savannah kept seeing the images of her dead parents splayed across the floor of their quaint little cottage in county cork as she gave all the details of what had happened to her uncle and his fellow club members. Normally if she were in a group of rough grizzly looking bikers she would be terrified but something about the Sons Of Anarchy Redwood Original made her feel safe, protected and calm.

She could see the signs of distress, shock and angers amongst the men in the room with her. They to understood her pain at losing her parents the way she did. Chibs had tears in his eyes as he absorbed what she was telling him. She wanted to hug him, comfort him the way she knew he would comfort her but she had to finish her story otherwise she never would.

There was one man that stood out the most though. His bright blue eyes were staring at her intensely the whole time she spoke. His black hair curled messily around his face, just that bit too long to look tidy. He was gorgeous. She couldn't stop herself from looking at him. She knew he had to be old enough to be her father, but she didn't care. All she knew was that she had never felt so attracted to someone before. It was like that was an invisible pull linking them, like there was no one else in the room.

She came here for her uncle. But looking at this man she knew she was meant to be here for him. He would protect her, cherish her and give her more than she ever imagined. Tig Trager would be hers. She just had to figure out how to get him.
