 Lena Penelope Sinclaire-CaineLena lead Tyson away once more. He was silent, and definitely starting to look tired. Lena drove them home as safely and quickly as she could. She went into her home first. Leaving Tyson in the car. She checked the house for anything out of the ordinary. Nothing downstairs. She moved upstairs and started with Tyson's bedroom. Everything looked the same. Then her room and finally Cadie's room. Satisfied with her search she went and retrieved Tyson. She helped Tyson get ready for bed quickly. Laying out his pajamas and adjusting his water temperature. For once the boy didn't fight or try to haggle for a later bedtime. He crawled into his bed and passed out. Not even requesting a story. Killian looked about the room, as if he was searching for who else she could possibly be speaking to. "Me...?" He pointed to himself. "Rats in Lena's car? What the hell are you even talking about?!" He snapped and stood up. He shook his head. "I have been in town maybe an hour. I stopped by Orion's, stopped at the Club, then straight here. I drove in from Lancaster. Pulls footage from the EZ Pass if you want, pull up the times, check my mileage. I don't give a ********. I got nothing to hide. I didn't, and wouldn't do anything to Lena. What purpose would that even serve?!" Killian shook his head. "Look! I am here to visit an injured friend, not looking for trouble or to be accused of anything." He sat back down. "I plan on visiting with my friend. Then I will be gone. Out of your face again. Especially since I can't be around you without you thinking I am up to no good."

Diana crossed her arms over her chest as Killian went on his defensive rant at her. Telling his whereabouts and his reasons for being here. As he SAT back down,. Di sighed and leaned against the wall near the door. Yes she was relieved to hear he had nothing to do with it. Hadn't really thought it was him, but again he showed up just after they were found. "Look it was easy coincidence that you came in before it was found. You're here, I had to make sure." Her gaze left his tired form and moved to Cadie beat up form in the bed. "She didn't deserve this, and Lena certainly doesn't deserve the trouble."

   Grace Marie De La Cruz
Wearing this!
Grace waited until the heated conversation by the front door had stopped before coming out of the bedroom, tying her hair up into a ponytail. It wasn't hard to hear the conversation because they spoke so damn loud. But, the conversation wasn't a good one, and from the way Orion was sitting on the couch, she knew that it had affected him deeply. Things weren't going very good for the club lately, which she could understand. After a moment she moved and picked up the sleeping Thomas, and placed him in his carseat, being extra careful not to wake him up. "I have to go downtown to the legal office and file for Thomas's social security number, and pick up his notarized birth certificate. Other than that I don't have any big plans..." She moved and sat next to him, leaning her head over onto his shoulder. There wasn't much she could say or do to make this situation better, except for be there for him when he needed her. Hopefully once all of this stuff is out of the way things can go back to normal. "I can take my gun with me, if you need Jesse to hang around the club. But, if you are so inclined to have someone babysit me, then he can meet me downtown at the legal office, cause I'm running late." Her hands cupped his face and she kissed him, before puling back and stroking his cheeks with her thumbs lightly. "I love you. Everything will turn out okay, there might be a few bumps in the road, but it will all be okay." She kissed him again and grabbed the carseat and her purse, lugging them outside and to her car.

Victoria Marshall
Victoria moved around the kitchen, putting the ingredients for pancakes into the mixer, before turning it on to mix and looking back over her shoulder at Jasper. "I dunno. I was just thinking maybe we could go out shopping, or even for a ride through the park." She wasn't a very complicated person, in fact, she loved doing things like fishing, camping, going on walks, hikes. There were so many things that she could do outdoors that they literally could never run out of ideas. But, she also knew that there were other things that he needed to do, and if she needed to take a raincheck she certainly would. "You still haven't taken me for a ride on your bike." She purred, letting her blue eyes look over his bare chest for a few moments.

Archie Thompson
Archie ended up leaving the hospital and made his way to Greensville, where she was meeting with Dereck about the things that took place at his home the night before. Now, Archie knew that the Irish liked to play dirty. They didn't follow the same rules and morals that they used to, and now when they wanted something to go their way, they would use whatever they could to get people to bend to their will. Even women and children, and with Lyn pregnant with twins, Archie knew that they could possibly target her. "So, what are ya gonna do, boy? Go to war with them?" He was seated at the bar, sipping on his own bottle of beer while his eyes looked over Nate, Kevin, and Dereck. Lucky was still back at Lyn's house, but they would fill him in whenever needed.
Dereck sat back in his chair, and rubbed at his chin. "Lyn is being very stubborn about everything. I want her to go somewhere safe, and she won't. I need to get her somewhere I can guarantee that she is protected from all of this." Archie and the others nodded with agreement, and that was when Kevin spoke up.
"What about Grace? Even if she is married to the De La Cruz guy, she is still your sister. They might even go after her." He didn't like the Sound of that, and before they could say anything else, he jumped in again. "I can go and keep watch over her. I know the Angels have been having someone with her, but that's for their own s**t. I don't trust them." Even though Grace had made it clear she was with Orion, and wasn't looking for anyone else, Kevin wasn't giving up. He was going to take every opportunity to be around her, especially if her life was in danger.
Nate scoffed loudly, and leaned forward onto his elbows. "Yer crazy if ya think that the Angels will let ya hang around her place. Ya just moved back to town, and they don't trust any of us as far as they can throw us. If anyone goes I think it should be me..." He looked between Kevin and Dereck. "I'm not the one who gets a damn hard-on for her every time I see her." After Nate said that he chuckled, and both Dereck and Archie groaned, shaking their heads.
"I don't need to know who gets a hard-on for my sister, guys. Come on." He ran his hands over his hair, and then returned them to the table in front of him. "If we can get a location on where they are set up, we can make our retaliation attack. But until then, we just need to sit tight and make sure we are watching our backs." There was really nothing that they could do unless they were face to face with the Irish. It was a waiting game, and after last night it left Dereck more on edge than he had been before. "Orion and his people have some s**t going on with the KOR, we all know about that. The only thing I give a ******** about is Grace, because she is in the crossfire of both of our MC's. If there is one link that connects the two MC's, its her. If they were smart and wanted to take down two birds with one stone, then she would be the one to go for. I know Lyn is going to be a target because of how close she is to me, so I am going to make sure one of you guys is with her at all times." He paused for a moment, and then sighed heavily. "Kev, I'm gonna have you set up around Grace's house. Follow her if she leaves, and watch over her place at night especially. She has a baby at home, so we need to be extra careful they don't pull another stunt like they did last night." Dereck wouldn't be able to forgive himself if something happened to his nephew, it would absolutely tear him apart.
Nate didn't like the idea of Kevin being the one to watch over Grace, mostly because he was likely to get distracted by his lingering feelings for her, but if that is what Dereck wanted he would support it. He was the President, so he made the calls. "Well, while Kev is busy with that, I'll get to tracking and see what information I can get on these assholes. See if I can find a paper trail or anything." He finished off his beer and stood from the table, grabbing his motorcycle keys.
Kevin stood up as well, but he pulled his phone from his pocket and sent Grace a quick text, letting her know that he was going to be hanging around with her, and where she was at. "I'm gonna catch up with Gracie, then." He put his phone back into his pocket and left the clubhouse, moving outside to smoke until he got word about where Grace was.

Killian did not immediately answer Diana. He was still angry she would immediately assume he was the one who went after Lena. He had no reason too. She was a nice person, and had been nothing but kind to him. Besides that she was suffering enough right now.
He relaxed a bit when she turned her attention to Cadie. She looked like s**t. Her beautiful hair hacked off. He laid his hand over Cadie's for a few seconds and then lowered his face in his hands.
"She begged me to come get her. Just the night before. I should have listened to her." He shook his head.
"First she wouldn't tell me why she wanted to take the chance of Ben coming after her. Finally she told me. She got a menacing call or two, and a few hang ups. Came out to a note on the car once when she was shopping. I didn't come. I thought it was just someone trying to scare her. I told her to stand her ground, carry her gun." He lifted his face from his hands.
"I knew Ben would come after her. So I didn't want to take the chance. Not yet...I was trying to make some moves. Get her out of here for good. She was fighting me because she knew it meant she was never ever coming back here. She wasn't ready to let go of her life here." He sat back in his seat and crossed his arms over his chest.
"Stupid little girl was still in lust with her ex." He shook his head.
"I really thought it was Ben just trying to scare her. Force her into submission. I should have known....should have realized who it was. I just thought...since he was gone...that she would be okay for a while. I thought I could get her out of town before he got back." Killian stood up and paced the length of the room.
"Diana....there is someone I really think is responsible for this. I want you to seriously look into this person. If I find out it was him. I am going to end up in prison. I am going to kill him, and don't care what that means for me. He has went to far this time. If he did to her because he perceived her as a threat, what is to stop him from going after anyone else he thinks is a threat? Grace, Lena, hell....even Orion himself." He turned to look at his ex.
"You want to look into him, or should I? I have to get going soon. I have somewhere to be soon..." Killian glanced at his watch. The meeting should begin soon. Less then a half hour actually.

"I won't be broken
I won't be tortured
I won't be beaten down" ~Orion Michael De La Cruz~ Orion lifted his head and looked at Grace. Suddenly he smiled at her. He slipped an arm about her shoulders, and pulled her into a side hug. "How about Cole and Shandee? Make it a nice fun day. You girls could hang out, take the kiddies. Make Cole carry the bags and drive you guys about. Make a whole big day of it. I think that sounds better then hanging around Jesse all day right?" He leaned his head against hers. "Jesse is afraid of babies anyway. Thinks they are contagious." Orion kissed her cheek. "Go do what you have to, then have a nice day out. I am sure you're tired of being stuck inside the house." Orion liked the idea of her hanging with another family, as opposed to a bachelor. Jesse was great, and wouldn't hit on Grace. That wasn't what he feared, it was Jesse's mouth. He could be offensive without meaning to be. He wasn't use to being around ladies. the types of chics he often kept in his company were rather rough, obscene even. Orion was staring at Grace expectantly. Clearly the decision was hers, whoever she wanted to keep her company was up to her. ~Ryder~ I have the answer
I can take the pressure
I will turn it all around

Grace Marie De La Cruz
Wearing this!
Grace turned to Orion, tilting her head to the side when he mentioned going out and about with Cole and Shandee. She knew of the woman, yeah, but had never really gotten close enough to warrant an entire day out with her. She pressed her lips together in thought, and glanced down at sleeping Thomas in the carseat. "I'm not planning on shopping around...I don't know how long this little guy will behave for me to be out and about..." She chewed on her bottom lip for a moment when her phone went off, and she wrestled it out of her pocket and looked at the message from Kevin. She placed the carseat down and leaned against the wall, replying to Kevin and letting him know she was home, but about to go out and run some errands. Grace wasn't sure if Orion was aware of Kevin being back in town, and if he was she also wasn't sure if he would want the man hanging around with her. "You remember Kevin?" She started, moving the carseat into the living room to take a seat next to him, placing her phone back in her purse. Kevin was older than she, but was her old high school flame..until he left to the military. "Anyway, he's with Dereck and said there is something going on, and Dereck wanted him to watch over the house..and me. Would you be opposed to me hanging around with him instead of Jesse?" Of course she wasn't going to do anything that would make her husband uncomfortable. They were married now, and she wasn't just going to make decisions without consulting him first.
After a moment there was a knock on the door, and she turned her head to look at the door. "It's probably Kevin." If he wanted her to send the man away, then she would. But she needed to leave soon because she needed to make it to the legal office to file the paperwork on time.

Lincoln hugged his cousin. Immediately he noticed her rounded midsection. "Take it that was the news...?" He asked as he patted her belly.
"Are we happy about this? This is what you want right?" He asked immediately. He didn't care who the Father was as long as Lyn was happy. He wasn't into kids himself, but he understood not everyone was like him.
He gave her another hug, a careful squeeze. "It is good to see you. You need to stop acting like a stranger. i know you're running with the Reapers nowadays but I don't care about that. That is your business, we are still family regardless of who you want to date. Same way you shouldn't care if I am banging your co-worker." He said casually as he stepped further into the house.
"Get your stuff! Tacos are calling my name!" He patted his stomach.
"I'm wasting away Mara! All I had to eat today was rabbit food!" He of course was referring to the salad he had for lunch. He removed his hat since he was now in Mara's home.

Lucky was sitting on the couch when Lincoln arrived, and upon hearing that they were leaving he stood from the couch, straightening his shirt and moving toward Lyn. He had specific orders to stay with Lyn, whether she was going to be with family or not, and he was not going to disobey those orders. "Looks like you'll be having a third wheel. On strict orders not to let this one outta my sight." He smiled at Lyn, and shoved his hands in his pockets. Tacos sounded nice, anyways. He was hungry as hell...well, he was always hungry, but still.

"I won't be broken
I won't be tortured
I won't be beaten down" ~Orion Michael De La Cruz~ "No....don't remember him. I don know if he is with Dereck I don't like or trust him though." Orion pulled away from Grace. "Do whatever you're comfortable with." He responded and moved to answer the door. Times like this he regretted getting married. Regretted the emotional attachments he had to Grace. He of course didn't want ANY of Dereck's men hanging about. He didn't trust any of them, and he knew Grace had too many romantic ties to just about everyone of Dereck's friends. He hated feeling jealous. He hated feeling insecure, he hated that suddenly Killian's words were ringing a bit true right now. That he wanted to blow everything off to go with Grace, when he had so many other responsibilities to tend to. He wouldn't though. He had to see to his businesses, he had worked to hard to get them up and running. To make sure they were successful. He couldn't let his jealousy be the thing that sunk him. He opened the door and stared back at Kevin. He looked him over with obvious dislike. "Grace your company is here..." Orion walked away. Not bothering to invite the man in. "Grace, I will get Thomas settled in the car for you. Call me when you decide what you want for dinner." He kissed her briefly then carried out the carseat. He easily settled Thomas in. Kissed his forehead and made his way back in, handing Grace the car keys. "Go on. I will lock up." He helped her into her jacket, and watched her leave. ~Ryder~ I have the answer
I can take the pressure
I will turn it all around

Kevin Hamilton
Kevin was on his bike and ready to go as soon as Grace said that she was still at home. She was at home a lot these days, which only led Kevin to believe that Orion was slightly controlling of the woman. But, that was not his place to comment. At least, not until Grace was alone or something. It didn't take him long to arrive to her house, he even stopped and enjoyed a cigarette before going and knocking on the door. As far as he was concerned, he was just here to make sure that the Irish weren't going to make any move on her, or the baby. Kevin was sure that if Orion couldn't keep his own sister safe from the KOR, there was no way he would be able to keep Grace safe from the Irish.
Grace could see the obvious disdain in Orion's face, and it made her feel a little bad about everything with Dereck. She tilted her head to the side when he seemed to flip a switch and move from the couch, going to answer the door. She stayed on the couch for a moment, and then stood up with a sigh. She thought about maybe getting with Jasper, but he was busy with his new woman and she would feel bad getting in the middle of that.
Kevin smiled right at Orion when he opened the door, the other mans look of dislike obviously didn't affect Kevin. He had been through too much s**t in his life to be affected by Orion. He winked when Orion announced his presence to Grace, and took it upon himself to step inside the doorway, with his hands in his pockets to look around the place a bit. "Hey Grace, hows it going?" His eyes wandered around the house until they landed on Grace, giving her a toothy grin. If it was one thing Kevin loved, it was making people hate him. Well, specifically people he didn't like himself.
Grace moved around the couch, waving at Kevin and then kissing Orion when he stopped, announcing that he would carry the carseat for her. That was something she was thankful for, because it was heavy as s**t, and he lifted it with such ease. "Hi Kevin." She hated that the idea of Kevin being around made Orion shift from his happy self to being a bit closed off. He had to trust her, and that she didn't want anyone else. If she did, then she wouldn't have married him.
When Orion basically ushered Grace out of the house, Kevin followed. "In a hurry or something?" He had a teasing tone to his voice, and moved to lean against the side of Grace's car, looking into the window at the sleeping Thomas. Grace moved to Orion and wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling him into a kiss. "Send my love to Cadie and Lena. And be careful." She held his gaze, letting him know she was serious about wanting him to watch his back. There was no telling what Ben would do to Orion given the chance, and Grace didn't want to have to deal with her husband being put in the hospital too.

"I won't be broken
I won't be tortured
I won't be beaten down" ~Orion Michael De La Cruz~ Orion squeezed Grace to him "I promise you I will be careful." He kissed her lips lightly several times, and moved his hand down her back, and it came to rest on her butt. "Don't worry about me. I hate when you worry. I will let them know your thinking of them." Orion held her another few seconds, and sighed. He didn't want to go to the hospital. He hated seeing Cadence like that, because it made him think about how easily that could be Grace laying in that bed. "Dinner. Call me." He stated before he finally let her go. He locked up like he said he would, and moved to his car. He settled himself inside and then began to scroll through his messages. Group message from Killian calling the meeting. Orion deleted the texts that were simply responses from a few of the other men. He listened to a voicemail that had been sitting in his box all morning. He listened to the message and then replayed it once before deleting it. He would do what needed to be done, then stop by the Police Station. They had recently found Annalise's body and wanted to question him. It probably meant he was a suspect. Grace and Cadence had been in prison around the time she had went missing, so he knew everything came back to him. He was fine with that, as long as long as that meant nothing went back to Grace. ~Ryder~ I have the answer

Grace Marie De La Cruz
Wearing this!
Grace smiled against each of Orion's kisses, and giggled when she felt his hand down and resting on her butt. When he mentioned calling about dinner, she nodded and kissed him once more, nibbling on his bottom lip before he pulled away and moved to his car. She could basically feel Kevin's eyes on her and Orion, but she didn't care. Public PDA was not something she was afraid of, that's for sure. Plus, if it would make Kevin get off of her a** a little bit, then she would continue to do so. "I will. Love you." She sighed and watched him move to his car before turning around and walking to her own. Kevin must have assumed he was riding with her, because he went around to the passenger side. She clicked her tongue at him. "Oh no, you smell like cigarettes and beer. No way you are getting in my car with Thomas like that. If you're going to follow me all day, then you're going to ride your bike." She crossed her arms over her chest, leaning over onto her hip.
Kevin groaned and rubbed at his beard, nodding in defeat. "Fine." He didn't say another word as he climbed onto his bike and started it up, revving the engine a few times.
Grace got into her own car and started on the way downtown, making sure to send Jasper a text to let him know they wouldn't be home if he came looking. Once she arrived at the legal office downtown, she carried the carseat inside, but instructed Kevin to wait outside. There wasn't anything that could happen inside of that office, because all she needed to do was file a bit of paperwork and pick up some things.
