Dillon: A Wings of Diablo MC Novel by Lake, B. (rosie project txt) 📕

I skid to a stop right behind one of the ambulances that is indeed parked right in front of Keeley's house. There is a flurry of activity, but no one has yet to say anything to me or even acknowledge my presence.

"Keeley!" I run toward the house, letting my bike fall to the ground as I jump off.

"Sir, you can't go in there." A cop puts his arm out to stop me, but I don't let him. I grab his face and push him to the ground. There is no fucking way that I was going to let them stop me from getting inside that fucking house.

A few more cops rush over to where I am, and they try to stop me as well. "Keeley!" I scream out waiting for them to answer. I stop fighting for the briefest of seconds when I look over to the side and see a man walking out with a large golden retriever limp in his arms.

"Oh fuck, Max." If Max was hurt, then I knew that someone had come in and tried to hurt my wife. "No! Get off of me! I need to get in there." I roar out in desperation as four officers hold me back telling me that I can' t go in, "That's my fucking wife. Let me go! Where's Lily?" Panic began to squeeze my chest as I realize that I don't see her either."

I see two men walking out of the house a body bag in their hands. I nearly pull out my gun right there and start shooting everyone in sight.

"Hey, let him go. Let him the fuck go!" Roth rushes up behind me and pulls a few of them off. It's enough for me to break free. I run in the direction of the men carrying the body bag and I can already tell by the length that it's not Keeley. I push past them and into the house where I see a bunch of paramedics on the floor surrounding someone.

Keeley is there, unconscious and bleeding profusely. Her skin is pale and sweaty. She opens her eyes to see me and the gold that I love is now a dark amber. She's slipping away right before my eyes.

"No, oh God, no. Keeley." I fall down and try to shove my way through the paramedics. She tries to raise her arm, but she doesn't even have enough strength to get it more than an inch off the floor.

"Sir, you have to move. We need to work. Move!" The EMT screams in my face. I nearly grab his head to slam it down on the ground.

"Dillon." An arm reaches under my arm and pulls me up.

"No!" I try to fight whoever it is to get back to Keeley. When I look back, I see a spattering of blue hair.

"Dillon! I need you to get your shit together now." Fly barks at me and I focus on his face.

"What the fuck happened?" I ask him and he pulls me away. Roth comes into the house. He sees Fly and I moving to the corner. He joins us.

"You were here?" Roth asks Fly, speaking the questions I clearly couldn't focus enough to ask.

"No. I was out. When I came back home, I heard her screaming." Fly says his voice cracking at the last part. "The cops are all over the place here." He slips something out of his sleeve and places it in my palm. It looks like a small tape recorder. What the hell is this? I look at it like it's an alien artifact. My mind can't comprehend what he wants me to do with it.

"They took Lily." Fly's voice is rough.

My head pops up and I stare in his eyes. He must mean the paramedics took Lily. Social services? The police?

"What? Who took Lily?" I ask through gasps of air. I can't catch my breath. It feels like my entire fucking head is swimming.

"The same ones who did this. They are going to sell her off." Fly says lowly.

"No, you're fucking lying. You piece of shit! You're lying!" I grab Fly by his shirt and jerk him once, willing him to tell me anything besides that shit. When he doesn't my entire body gives way and I fall down to my knees.

"Oh God. Oh, my fucking God ..." My body shakes with anger and fear. I feel broken.

"Wire, you need to get up, they're taking Keeley to the hospital. Don't let her be alone." Roth bends down and tries to pick up my body, but it’s all dead weight. I feel like there is nothing that my body knows how to do anymore besides hurt.

"Fuck. Oh fuck." I cry out and do my best to look around at what is happening. They are moving Keeley out the door even as they continue to try breathing for her and stop the bleeding. "Lily. I need to get Lily." I turn back in the opposite direction. "Wire, Keeley needs you." Roth says from behind me. I turn back and see my ol' lady fighting for her life on the stretcher.

"Key." I call for her. My mind spins in a million directions. I need to make a fucking decision, but I won't be able to live with myself if she dies and I'm not there. It'll end me, but if they hurt my daughter and I didn't go do anything to save her, It'll be the same outcome.

"Wire, come on man. You need to focus!" Roth grabs the back of my head and forces me to look at him. I need to make a decision. There's no one that was going to help me now. One way or another shit was going to be bad. I had to figure out which of the bad I was going to let happen.

I take a breath, close my eyes and think for a beat. "Roth, find out what's
