Okay ladies, in this chapter, a lot of things will come to a head! Enjoy!

"Please, don't hurt me."

I watched as the two men got out of their truck, moving closer and closer to my car. The driver was carrying a steel bat, dragging it across the ground, sending a chill up my spine.

"Andy, pull her out."

Is this a dream? Wake up, Julia! Wake up!

But, something told me to ride out this nightmare.

Please, please don't hurt me. I have three kids, please."

Andy pulled my arms forward, and took out his pocketknife, cutting the seatbelt. Once the seatbelt was cut and out of the way, he pulled the rest of me out, throwing me to the floor. I looked at my hands. They were bleeding, with tiny rocks lodged in between the cuts.

I looked at my attackers, trying to remember anything that could help me if I get out of this.

"She's pretty," Andy touched my leg, and moved his hand up my skirt. As his head was close enough. I swung my head forward, headbutting him.

He fell backwards and I started to get up. The one with the bat swung the steel weapon on the right side of my ribs. I screamed out and he kicked me onto my back with his foot.

"You shouldn't have done that, sweetheart. Looks like I'm going to have to show you whose boss."

He started unbuttoning his jeans.

Oh fuck no. I won't let this happen to me again.

Not being able to stand, I started to crawl. He pulled both of my legs, dragging me closer to him. He climbed on top of me, his weight keeping my body at bay.

"Come on, baby. Don't be such a cocktease. I promise, I'll leave you wanting more."

The man, Andy had my hands pinned over my head. The guy who currently laid the bat next to us was now forcing himself inside me, hurting me. Tears would not stop falling from my eyes. I heard my phone go off, and my head turned to the weeds.

Jax. He's probably wondering where the hell I am.

"Jax! Jackson! Somebody, please, please, help me!"

He stopped thrusting altogether and backhanded me. My lip starting to bleed from the silver ring he was wearing.

"Shut up."

"You don't have to do this, please."

He started to thrust again, his grunting echoing in the air.

"Orders are orders. "

Within twenty minutes or so, He moved off of me. I tried sitting up, putting my clothes back in some kind of order.

Please someone save me. But no one was around to hear my pleading call. Just me, alone with two sadistic assholes.

The asshole began rebuttoning his pants.

"Wow. Now, I know why they say once you go black, you never go back," he stated with a cocky smile, getting a laugh out of his buddy, Andy.

"Oh, fuck you."

"You just did."

He picked up the bat, hitting it against his hand lightly.

"It's now time for the finale."

The bat whistled through the air as his first swing hit my face, making me spit out blood and a few of my teeth that are located in the back of my mouth. I watched in shock as my mouth released the all too familiar red fluid.

I spit out the mouthful of blood I have now collected.

"You're going to be sorry. When my husband finds you, he will kill you."

"That's a risk I'm willing to take," and he swung again, my body falling backwards.

My mind switched off from the horrific nightmare to other events in my life.

"Let's just say Wendy is not the only woman who got pregnant by you this year."

"You took my baby away from me. Now, I'm going to take yours."

Jules, I know being with me has its extremes. Looking over the past year, we have been through so much shit together. Between worrying about what people might think to now, we managed to always come out on top every fucking time. I don't know about you, but I take that as a good sign. You always fight for me, and I will do the same for you, and our kids. No matter where it takes me. Cuz you're worth it, baby. I don't think words or anything I do will ever prove to you how much I love you. If you say yes, I promise I'll try. Julia Carter, will you marry me?"

More and more scenes of my life flashed through my head. So quickly, it was starting to make my head spin, and I woke up. My body was sweating, and I pulled the sheets back. I was overwhelmed with emotions and started to break down and cry.

Jax switched the light off in the bathroom. He heard sobbing coming from his bedroom. He made his way to the room and saw Julia on the edge of the bed crying hysterically.

"Hey, hey, Jules, what's wrong?"

He bent down in front of me, rubbing my arms.

"I remember."

"Remember what, babe?"

"Everything. You, me, the kids. The accident."

Jax's eyes widened in shock.

"That's why you didn't tell me what happened in the accident?"

He looked down at the carpet and nodded.

"You know, I think there was another reason I couldn't sleep with you. On a subconscious level, I had a feeling you didn't want to be inside someone who is all torn up and damaged like me," I stated in shortened breaths.

Jax took his wife's face in his hands, making her look at him.

"Baby, Baby, stop. I love you. I love you so much. Nothing is ever going to change the way I feel about you. We are going to get to the bottom of who did this to you. I won't rest till I do. I love you."

He wrapped his arms around me, and I cried even harder.

"I love you, too."

I pulled back from him. He used his knuckle to wipe a falling tear from my face.

"Can you come back into bed? I don't wanna sleep alone anymore."

"Of course I will. I was just waiting for you to ask."

He gave me a sweet smile and climbed into bed first. I got in after him, laying my head down on his chest, trying to be as close to him as possible. He wrapped both of his arms around me and kissed the top of my head.

Jax woke up to the sound of his phone ringing from the living room. He got up as quietly as possible, trying to unweave his body out of his wife's grip. He swiftly went into the living room, picking up his phone off the coffee table.

"Hello?"

"Hi, Mr. Teller. This is detective Maya Woods. We were able to restore the video. Would you be able to come in?"

"Yeah, absolutely. I'll be there in ten minutes."

He walked back to their bedroom, rushing to get dressed. He reached into Julia's suitcase and took out a pen and paper leaving her a note in his place.

Be back shortly. Didn't want to wake you. Love you. Jax.

Once he was in the station, Maya took him to the same room she brought him the first time they met.

Jax was able to study the faces better.

Holy shit.

That was Andy Peterson and his pal Derek. He remembers Clay making a gun deal with them a few years back.

This was Clay. Clay put a fucking hit out on his wife.

Jax's face turned red. He needed to get out of there.

"Well, do you recognize them?", Maya asked stopping the tape with the remote.

"No. Never saw 'em before," Jax lied, trying to get his body to go back to a normal temperature.

Andy and Derek met clay outside of Charming just like he requested. They both were leaning against the front of the car, talking about what strip club they were heading to after this. Clay pulled up about thirty minutes after they arrived there.

As soon as Clay was off his bike, he took his helmet off and hit Derek in the face with his helmet, making him fall to the floor.

"What the fuck, Clay," Andy asked, looking at his friend's bloodied face.

"You assholes were supposed to kill her."

"We did! I used a fucking steel bat," Derek said, standing up slowly, holding his nose.

"She's not dead. My son let my wife know today that she's doing just fine. I'm not the only one he will come after. He will come after you both as well."

"We're not fucking scared of Jax," Derek said, wiping his nose with his shirt.

"You don't know him anymore. If someone hurts Julia or his kids, he won't hesitate to put a bullet in your head."

"Well, from the sound of it, it sounds like you're scared, old man," Andy said with a smile.
