“Hey, Mrs. Potter. Have you ever seen Sugar? No, I’ll have a brother swing by and choose them up. Okay. Thanks,” I muttered, disconnecting the decision earlier than informing everybody, “Mrs. Potter mentioned that she’s had the boys since Martha dropped them off this afternoon. She hasn’t seen Sugar in any respect.”
“Who was the final individual to see Sugar?” King shouted, getting everybody’s consideration.
“The women and I noticed her at lunch,” Claudia admitted.
“And I left shortly after to coach the brand new child,” I added.
“I ended by round three,” Gunner knowledgeable. “She was busy with prospects.”
“I keep in mind my mother saying she was going to swing by earlier than closing to position an order for Dad’s birthday,” Sarah suggested.
“Was anybody there when she closed?” I groaned, reaching for my keys.
When nobody piped up, King growled, “Go, Enigma. I’ll name Mike.”
Not needing permission, I made it midway to the door when my cellphone rang. “It’s Mike.”
Answering the decision, I stiffened once I heard Mike say that some jackass accosted Sugar and Fiona on the town and that I wanted to get to the police station quick.
“Go,” King shouted. “Pyro simply known as. We’ll meet you there!”
Working for my truck, I wasted no time and headed down the mountain.
A short while later, I pulled right into a parking spot in entrance of the police station and several other bikes pulled in beside me. Leaping out of my truck, I ran inside with my membership brothers behind me.
Fiona gasped the second she noticed George and ran to him. As quickly as she reached him, he held her tightly to him, making an attempt to assuage her fears.
“The place the hell is Sugar?” I demanded, trying across the station, unable to see her.
“She’s in with Mike, Eugene,” Linda admitted. “Sit down. She shall be out shortly.”
“Like fucking hell I’ll,” I growled, strolling previous the entrance desk and heading straight for Mike’s workplace. Not bothering to knock, I barged proper in to seek out Sugar sitting in a chair as Mike loomed over her.
“Get the fuck away from her.”
“Enigma, relax,” I barely heard King say as I stared the sheriff down.
I preferred Mike. He was a superb man. By no means had trigger to mistrust him, however seeing him standing so near Sugar, figuring out what occurred, I didn’t belief anybody round my lady.
Not after the way in which this city has handled her all these years.
“Not asking once more, Mike.”
The sheriff took a step again, which allowed Sugar to run to me. Gathering her shut, I held her as her physique shook uncontrollably.
“I need that motherfucker prosecuted to the total extent of the regulation.”
“I need the identical, however Sugar is refusing to press fees,” Mike suggested.
“I wish to go residence. Please take me residence, Eugene.”
King, who shrugged, I turned again to Mike, who additionally seemed confused. All of us knew that until Sugar pressed fees, shit like this may proceed. The very fact was, Sugar wanted to face up for herself and say sufficient is sufficient. Till then, the city would proceed to belittle and harass her.
“Shug…”
“No,” she adamantly acknowledged. “I’m not urgent fees.”
“Oh sure, you might be, younger girl,” Granny, also called Martha Steiner, Frank and George’s grandmother, mentioned sternly as she pushed previous King to get to Sugar. “Sufficient is sufficient. It’s time you raised your voice and shouted to the world, no extra.”
