I was living my worst nightmare, kidnapped, and without anyone seeing what had happened. I was just praying that Happy would find some sort of clue to find me, because I had no doubt that my captors wouldn't hesitate to hurt me. I wasn't safe, I wasn't calm, I had flown head first into a wall of panic.

"You sure she's the right one?" The first guy asked.

"Yeah I'm sure." The second guy answered.

"She doesn't look Russian to me." The first one chuckled. "She's too dark."

"Not all Russians are pale, plus all girls here tan." The second answered. "She's the right one, Katarzyna Hohrykova."

"I go by Brianna." I said against the duct tape over my mouth.

"Finally she speaks." The second guy laughed. "Bout time, I was beginning to think you didn't understand or speak English."

I rolled my eyes under my blindfold. "Can you remove the tape?" I was hoping they would so I'd be able to catch my breath better and calm down a little.

"If you don't scream I'll remove it." The first guy said. "You're not going to scream are you?"

I shook my head no, and drew back when I felt rough hands on my face. I winced as the tape was ripped from my mouth, I was sure it took off the top layer of skin off my lips. "Thanks."

"Whatever." He said.

"You're going to make us a pretty penny." The second guy said. "There's a big bounty on your head."

"By?" I asked. I wasn't aware anyone wanted my dead or delivered to them by force.

"Don't worry about it." He sounded irritated.

"Alright. I need to pee." I shifted on the uncomfortable chair.

"Pee your pants." Second guy said.

"I'd rather not." I replied. "I'll just wait til I can't wait anymore."

"Take her to the bathroom and don't let her try anything stupid." Second guy demanded.

"Ok, boss. Let's go." He grabbed my arm roughly and pulled me off the chair, I stumbled beside him as he directed me towards the bathroom.

"So, you do this often?" I asked.

"What?"

"Do you kidnap doctors often?" I felt myself being shoved into a stall.

"You're a doctor?" He sounded shocked.

"Yeah." I nodded. "So I'm not ok with you pulling my pants down so can I get my hands tied on front of me or what?"

"I'm not sure if I should do that."

"Then I guess I'm not peeing." I sighed as he yanked me out of the stall.

"Wasted my time." He smacked me hard.

"Ow." I rubbed my face on my shoulder.

"Walk faster." He shoved me forward like I knew where to go. "What happened to your face anyways?"

"I got hit by an angry mother." I winced at the memory. "How much is the bounty?"

"One mil." He said.

"Anyway you'd be tempted if I double that?" I asked, hoping he'd take some interest.

"Maybe." He pushed me through a door and I stumbled and fell face first onto the floor.

SOASOASOA

Happy's POV

If it wasn't one thing with Brianna it was something else. I loved the woman to death, I'd take a bullet for her in a heartbeat, so when Juice came to me yelling that she was gone, I had a panic attack inside, but had to stay stoic on the outside. It fuckin' killed me to hear she was snatched. My lady, was gone in a blink if an eye and I had no control over getting her back because I had no fuckin' clue who snatched her. I could only assume it was the Calaveras since they had followed us one night but I didn't think they'd have the balls to grab her.

"I got the security film finally." Juice waved a flash drive in my face before moving to plug it into the laptop sitting next to me.

"I hope it fuckin' shows tags." I rubbed my eyes. "I need to get her back."

"Yeah, I know." He said. "I need her back for Natalie."

"Natalie is a slut." I shook my head.

"Bri is a bitch." He shot back.

"I rather be with a bitch than a slut." I smirked.

"Let's just focus on this shit." He said as he hit play and the video showed a clear picture of him and Bri standing by the bikes talking before him walking inside. Then a van pulled up and yanked her in and sped off. He hit pause, the tags were visible.

"Finally, a fuckin' break." I watched him scribble down the tag before exiting the video to look it up.

"Hopefully they were dumb enough to use their own tags." Kozik poked his head between us and smirked. "Gotta get my Brianna Banana back."

"We do." I nodded.

"It's a Oakland tag, registered to a Joseph Smith." Juice read the details and found the address.

"Let's go." I grabbed my cut off the hook and shrugged it on. "I'll call her dad, you two get guns or something."

"We're just gonna bum rush the place and hope she's there?" Juice asked.

"Yeah, this is our only lead, we gotta take it." I walked out of the house.

"I'm with you bro." Kozik said. "Gotta get our girl back."

"She's mine." I narrowed my eyes at him. "I'm not sharing her."

"Yet." He added with an impish grin. "The time will come."

I shook my head at him and made a quick call to Bri's dad telling him to meet us at the corner by the building.

#

The guy who took her was by no means an intelligent man. The van from the surveillance tape was parked in front of the worn down building, there were lights on inside from what I could tell. She had to be in there, if she wasn't I'd still kill whoever was in there.

"Ok, the aim is to infiltrate, and seize the mark." Kozik said. "Get in, grab Bri, bring her to safety and leave the guy to me and Hap."

"If she's not here?" Juice asked.

"Then we torture the guy in there til he gives her location up." I said. "We have to believe she's in there because the van is here."

"We should call Jax." He said. "Have them help."

"If they wanted to help, they wouldn't have fuckin' ditched us Juan." I set him with a look. "Yeah I used your NAME because I'm fuckin' serious about this. I just need to get her back."

"Alright." He nodded.

"Here comes the mob." I pointed at the white SUV.

After quickly filling her dad and his hitmen in on the plan, we were poised at every door the building had. Guns ready and masks over our faces, at the advise of Viktor.

"Go!" Kozik yelled before kicking down the door. He was taking this more seriously than needed but I couldn't complain since he was helping me get my lady back. "Clear."

I held my finger up to my mouth to silence him, I didn't need anyone to know we were there until it was needed. I took the lead as we inched closer to the light source, my adrenaline started pumping, voices were coming down the hall.

"What the?" The guy asked as he looked at us then took off running, only to be tackled to the ground by Viktor.

"Where is she?" His voice was soft but loud. "Where the fuck is my daughter?"

"What?" The guy asked in a strained voice as Viktor pressed his boot harder against his neck.

"Katarzyna. Where is she?" He asked again, his gun pointed at his head.

"Fuck, she's in there!" He pointed towards a dark room. I rushed to the room and kicked in the door as the others rushed in the rooms with light.

"Here to hit me again?" Her voice sounded broken and child-like. She didn't sound like her usual over confident self.

"No." I said.

"Happy?" I could hear her movement but I couldn't see her.

"Yeah, Bri." I pulled out my phone to use it as a light, I shined it around the room and found her in the corner, her knees clutched to her chest and her face was bloody. The sight of her both angering me and providing a slight sense of relief.

"Babe." She was crying. I bent down to cut her hands and feet free. When I stood up I pulled her with me and hugged her.

"You're ok now." I rubbed her back. "I'm going to fuckin' kill those guys."

"Don't leave me." She gripped the front of my shirt.

"I'm not." I grabbed her hand. "Let's go."

"I want to go home." She sniffed. "This has been the worst few days of my life."

"Mine too. I lost sleep trying to find you. I'm never leaving you alone again." We walked out of the room and towards the voices filling the room a few doors down.

"I love you." She whispered.

"I love you too." I squeezed her hand. "Time to get bloody." She just nodded in response as if she could read my mind and see what was about to happen to the men who took her.

"Princess." Her dad ran over to us and gathered her up in his arms. "I was so scared, so so sad. I was thinking we'd have to call the police."

"Imagine how I felt." She said. "I'm glad you guys found me."

"It was all your man." Kozik said. "Wouldn't let us sleep, kept us looking for any clues."

"Took forever to get the camera footage. The owner of the cameras didn't want to deal with us, had to persuade him to." Juice said.

"At least I know who my true friends are." She smiled at us weakly. "What're you going to do to these guys?"

"Give them what they deserve baby girl." I smirked. "Which one hit you?"

"I don't know, I was blindfolded the whole time." She frowned. "I just know their voices."

"Talk." I demanded the men. "Fuckin' talk. If you don't talk, I'll just treat you the fuckin' same. So which one of you pussies hit my lady?"

"I did." The guy who told us where Bri was said. "I was frustrated."

"You took out your fuckin' frustration on a woman?!" I yelled. "The fuck is wrong with you?"

"I..I...I don't know!" He flinched as raised my gun over his head. "It was her fault!"

"Yeah, it was her fault." The other guy said.

"How?" Kozik asked. "How is it her fault that you smacked her around?"

"She wouldn't do what we wanted her to, she just sat and stared and didn't help." The guy said. "She was difficult."

"You fucking kidnapped her and expected her to help you?" Kozik laughed. "You both are idiots."

I smacked both guys with my pistol. The sound echoed and made me feel good. "You don't beat on women! I don't give a fuck about how much they frustrate you." I hit them again. "Beat on me, not some helpless female you probably smacked around while she was tied up and couldn't hit back."

I grabbed my knife from its sheath and brandished it in front of them before handing it off to Bri.

"Do your worse." I whispered to her. She stepped forward and without hesitation sank the blade in the guy's leg before pulling it out. "You want to tell us why you snatched her?"

"There was a bounty on her." He was weak. Took one stab wound to break him. "Then when we called to cash in on her, they said she was too much, had too much attached to her."

I took the knife from her, and ran it across the guy's face. "She wouldn't tell you anything about it and you beat her?"

"Yeah, I did. I just wanted answers." He cried. "All she had to do was answer."

"I didn't know what you were talking about." She said, her breath ragged, she was about to cry again. "I told you who my father is and who my ex was."

"You didn't tell us you were with the Sons!" He screamed. "You dumb bitch." She grabbed the knife from me and pushed it into his neck and pulled it free.

"Oh, God." The other guy said. "Don't kill me! I beg you!"

"Tell me who has a bounty on my daughter." Viktor crouched to be eye level with the guy.

"Some Irish dude, I don't know his name." He stammered. "I..I just know he's a top level guy and wanted her until yesterday."

"The Irish want my princess?" Viktor looked confused. "Why does the MC have anything to do with that?"

"We used to deal guns for them." I said. "We got out though, Jax killed Galen. Must be someone new."

"Can we go?" Bri asked. "I'm feeling sick." She was noticeably shaking.

"You two get her outside." I watched Juice and Kozik escort her out the room.

SOASOASOA

Seeing Bri and Kozik interact was almost as bizarre as watching her and Happy interact. Their conversation came easily, he looked at her with eyes full of love and lust but she looked at him with eyes full of sorrow and pain. She was broken, so broken, but he tried his best to make her smile and laugh.

"Brianna Banana." He sang. "Drink some water."

"I'm going to be sick." She clutched her stomach and doubled over before throwing up.

"Get it out." He held her hair back as if he had done it plenty of times before, leading me to wonder if they were closer than appearances led everyone to believe.

"I'm going to die." Bri sat on the ground and pulled her knees up. Her head resting on them as she rocked back and forth.

"You'll get through this." I sat down next to her. "We're here for you."

"Yeah, we are. Little girl." Kozik handed her a cigarette and she puffed on it before handing it back.

"Don't call me that." She looked at him. "I've told you that before H."

"I know but you look like a broken little girl right now. It's sad but I'm glad you're alive." He mussed up her hair.

"I'm broken but I'll survive." She stood. "I feel like I'm dying though." She pulled her bloodied shirt over her head.

I cringed at the sight of her back. Angry cuts criss crossed over her tattoo. "Damn, Bri."

"Yeah." She shrugged. "Can I have your hoody Koz?" He pulled it off and pulled it over her head. "Thanks."

"I'm going to call Natalie. Let her know we got you." I said and walked off towards my bike, before bending over to empty my stomach. Seeing her like that made me sick. Made me wonder just how much she went through during the last three days when we were trying our hardest to find her. If only the owner of the cameras would have cooperated earlier. We could have spared her the unnecessary pain.

"Hey." Natalie's voice rasped into the phone. She had picked up after the second ring.

"We found her." I said.

"Is she ok?"

"No, she's not. She's alive but she's not ok." I said. "She's different."

"She did get kidnapped." Her voice was sad. "I'm glad she's with you guys. Be safe and I'll see you when you're home."

"Bye babe." I ended the call and walked back over to Bri and Kozik who were sitting side by side on the ground.

"She's asleep." He whispered. "We should get her in that SUV. Let her stretch out."

I moved and grabbed her arms while he grabbed her legs. She wasn't light but she wasn't heavy, she was just oddly solid feeling. We got her in backseat and we each stood at one door on each side to keep a lookout, as we heard movement.

"Where is she?" Happy appeared at the front of the SUV.

"In here sleeping." Kozik stepped from the door and pulled it open.

"Good." He replied. "We got the information we needed."

"You have to get her to talk Hap." I said. "Don't let her brush this off."

"I won't, I'm not going to force her to talk. I'm going to let her talk when she's ready." He peeked in at her. "She's with us, so she's safe for now. We still need to deal with the Irish."

"Let's go home, good job. Thank you all." Viktor said. "I will be in touch."

I hung back as everyone pulled off. Happy and Kozik trailing behind Viktor. I climbed on my bike and rode off towards Charming and my waiting girlfriend.

It was early morning when I poured myself into bed. Natalie was awake, her eyes fixed on the TV.

"Morning." She said. "You must be tired if you didn't even stop to shower."

I groaned and burning my face in the pillows.

"Poor baby." She rubbed my shoulders and I melted beneath her touch. "Sleep and I'll cook breakfast in a few hours."

I nodded my head as I drifted off to sleep.

#

"Breakfast is done." Natalie shook me awake, the smell of food attacked my nostrils as I yawned and moved around. "It's your favorite."

"Thanks." I sat up and took the tray from her and placed it on my lap. "Looks delicious."

"It is." She smiled as she climbed in next to me. "I already had two plates." She laughed.

"You think it's a boy or a girl?" I asked as I picked up the bacon and shoved it into my mouth.

"I think it's a girl. If she is. Her name is going to be Luna." She smiled. "Bri's psychic nanny said it was a girl and her name had to be Luna."

"Luna?" I asked. "I like it, its different. I'm sure they're going to call her Luna Tuna or say Luna smells like Tuna." I laughed.

"Yeah, but I'm sure Bri will be on the playground beating children up for calling her goddaughter names." She giggled. "I can see it now."

I sighed. "I see it too. Brianna the Beast, eating preschoolers for breakfast." I smiled.

"Is she really in bad shape?" She frowned. "I called her this morning but Happy answered and said she wasn't up to talking."

"Yeah, she is. Like multiply the bruises Gem gave her by like a hundred, and she has them all over. They tore up her back. She's going to have scars all over her tattoo. It was hard to see. I got sick, literally." I pushed the food away from me.

"Oh God." She said, her eyes moistening. "I need to go see her and hold her."

"I think that'd be good for you and her. Given that she was upset with you before this shit happened." I slid out of bed and walked to the bathroom. "You want to join me?"

"Always baby." She met me at the door.

"We'll get her through this." I kissed her nose. "I promise."

"Do you have to go to the clubhouse?" She asked as she turned on the water.

"Yeah. Jax needs me to do some reconnaissance." I shook my head.

"Alright, I'll visit Bri while you do that and then we can link up after you're done."

"Sounds like a date." I helped her step into the shower.

"It is." She kissed me. "It'll be our like first real one."

"True." I spoke against her lips.

#

"Juice." I heard Jax before I saw him.

"Hey man, what's up?" I forced a smile.

"Where's Hap and Koz?"

"I'm not sure. I haven't seen them in awhile." I looked at him.

"Find them. I need their expertise." He stalked off. His arms swinging behind him.

I sat down at the laptop and started to do the research, I sent a quick text to Happy, he said he'd be here with Kozik within the hour, so I assumed they were together at Bri's.

"Hey baby." Gemma sat down next to me. A cigarette dangling from her lips.

"Hey Gem." I smiled and turned back to the laptop.

"Where's Russian Barbie and her sidekick?" She laughed.

"Um, Bri is idk and I'm sure Natalie is with her." I didn't bother telling her about Bri, she didn't care anyways. No one around here seemed to.

"Good, don't need them bitches here causing trouble." She stood and walked away.

"Juicy." Chibs said as he walked up to me. "Where's ya girlies at?"

"Off bonding." I said. "They won't be coming around for awhile."

"Aye, I think that'd be for the best." He sat down and took a sip of his whiskey.

"I agree." I smiled. "They should stay away."

I got lost in my task, everyone was buzzing around me, doing what was needed.

"Hap." Jax brushed by me. "Need you brotha."

"Will it be quick, I got to go see my Ma. She's sick."

"Yeah, it'll be quick and easy." Jax answered. "Juice, you're coming with."

#

We were standing around outside a house. Waiting for Jax to give us the signal to bum rush the place.

"He's an asshole." I whispered to Happy. "He didn't even ask about her. No one did but Gemma and Chibs and that was on account they didn't want them around causing trouble."

"She's separate from club business now. It's better that way. So keep cool before I have to beat your ass." He glared at me. "I'm serious Juan."

"Ok, Happy." I would have used his real name if I had known it. "I won't bring her up."

"Good." We rushed in the house as Jax kicked in the door.

"It's empty." He yelled. "Shit." He kicked a bookshelf.

"Jackie calm down." Chibs said. "We'll wait."

"Alright. Well Hap, you can go." He said. "Thanks."

"Call me if you need anything Prez." He rasped as he walked out of the house and I watched him in envy, wishing I was leaving this mess too.
