Chapter 27: Petunia, Achillea, & Ulex

"You said he was-" Katie was sitting up, wide eyed and now panicking. She grabbed her head and began to breathe harder, anxiety creeping fast.

"I know I did! I didn't know he would live!!" Jonathan struggled to put clothes on while still on the phone with Angela. "How far away is he!?"

"He's about two hours away. That was the last report I- JESUS CHRIST!!"

There was an explosion heard just before the line cut out.

"ANGELA!? ANGELA ARE YOU THERE!?" Jonathan paled, his palms becoming sweaty. When he received no reply, he threw his phone to the floor and smashed it.

Katie flinched from Pine's action, but understood why he was doing it. "Is she o-ok?" Her voice was shaky.

"I don't know. I can only hope so." Jonathan looked at his beloved and helped her off the bed. "Come on, we gotta go. We will worry about her later." He grabbed some clothes and threw them in his suitcase.

It was decided that they would have to share 1 suitcase as time was of the essence. They didn't know how far away Daniel was and were not about to chance it.

"Cameron!" Katie grabbed the picture frame of her brother and yanked the photo out, shoving it in her inner coat pocket. She wouldn't leave the only thing left of her brother behind as it was the most important item she owned, clothes be damned.

Jonathan grabbed his knife and gun, reloading it just in case and put it in his holster. "Are you ready?" He adjusted Katie's fluffy scarf to make sure she would be warm enough.

The brunette took her boyfriend's hand and nodded, tears threatening to spill.

"It's gonna be ok, sweetheart. I'm never going to let anything happen to you, alright?" He released her hand and rubbed her arms, placing a quick kiss to her forehead. "I love you."

"I love you too." She whispered, taking his hand again and heading out of their once cozy flat. As soon as they exited their home, the entire building blacked out from an explosion two blocks away. Screams from other residents could be heard from floors below.

"I guess we are taking the stairs." Pine mumbled to himself and kicked the emergency exit door open. He still had a tight grip on Katie's hand, guiding her through the dark stairwell. Sounds of glass shattering and footsteps added in to the terrified shrieking. He could feel her trembling hard just by her hand alone. "Just keep holding my hand and stick close to me-"

The door on the 12th floor slammed open and around five men stood watching the pair. A belladonna flower was stitched into their uniforms.

"Shit!! Kate, run!!" Jonathan threw the suitcase at the men piling in as a means to hinder them. He whipped around and followed after Katie, hearing the men resume their pursuit. Pine made sure to have Katie in front of him in case the goons tried anything.

Katie suddenly stopped and grabbed onto the rail, hopping onto it and sliding down as a faster way to get out.

Thinking of her clever idea, Jonathan copied Katie and slid down after her, eventually tumbling to the ground.

The brunette turned around quickly, grabbing Jonathan and hoisting him up. Katie grabbed his hand and pulled Pine along, running out of the stairwell and to the lobby of their flats building.

“Take the emergency exit!” Jonathan yanked his girlfriend toward the door and kicked it open. Thankfully, there were a ton of people running and screaming to give them some cover from the Belladonna goons. Upon their exit, harsh winter winds whipped in the lovers faces and a mixture of snow and sleet hit added to their dismay.

“I WANT EVERY CORNER OF THIS CITY SEARCHED FOR THEM!!” Daniel shouted out to his men. “DO NOT KILL THEM! GRANT ME THAT OPPORTUNITY! ANYONE WHO STANDS IN OUR WAY WILL BE KILLED UPON SIGHT!!”

Jonathan shoved Katie into an alleyway and behind a dumpster. He used his body to press her up against the icy metal to conceal her as best as he could. “Kate I need you to listen very carefully.” Pine looked into her eyes, keeping his voice as quiet as possible.

Katie nodded, “Tell me what we need to do.”

Pine scanned the alleyway and looked across the street to the path of where the parking garage was. His car was parked in there as he didn’t have much use for it as he walked most of the time. However, now was the perfect opportunity to make their escape in it. “Once those bastards are done with their investigation across the street, we are going to make a run for it. We have to get to the parking garage as fast as we can if we want to get out alive. I have my gun and knife on me in case things get hairy. We will go into the countryside and contact Angela later. I only hope that she’s still alive.” He sighed, shaking his head before looking at Katie again. “I need you to not turn around while you are running. If you hear me shout or get hurt, do not stop running and find a place to lay low. I will be ok.” Jonathan let out a shaky breath before cupping Katie’s face and kissing her sweet lips deeply.

The brunette wrapped her arms around Jonathan and kissed him back with just as much vigor, her heart pounding. She was terrified that something would go wrong and that Daniel would find them and kill them. “I love you.” she whispered against his lips after finally breaking away. “Please don’t die.”

“I won’t and I love you too.” Jonathan placed one last kiss to her lips before turning around slowly to check if the coast was clear. He removed himself from hiding Katie and nodded, “On my count.” He held up three fingers, still watching the street.

Green eyes watched with anticipation as Pine counted down from 3 to 2 and finally to 1. At the sight of his closed fist, she got up and pulled her hood over her head. Katie took a deep, chilly breath and bolted out into the storm with her blood pounding in her ears. All she could focus on was getting to the next alleyway without being noticed by Belladonna. She heard footsteps behind her and they were fast approaching. Her eyes darted to a sharp turn and she took that way in favor of leading whoever was on her trail off. She knew it wasn’t Pine as these breaths sounded more heavy and with some raggedness to them.

“Got you-” A Belladonna henchman grabbed Katie by the arm, shoving her against the brick wall and holding her by her throat. He entrapped the girl with his body and only grinned as she continued to squirm. “Shame Daniel has to kill such a pretty little thing. Maybe I’ll have my way with you before I take you to him-”

“NO!!” Katie choked out, mustering up as much force as she could and slamming her head against his despite his chokehold. Once out of his grip, Katie then extended her leg out and kicked him in the chest. She somersaulted forward, attempting to bring her leg down on him but being tossed into the wall again. Her wrist met his own and her leg came up between the henchman’s legs in a faux attack to his groin. Katie wrapped the same leg tightly around one of his and slammed him to the hard concrete. “No one will ever touch me like that again!” She growled, then bringing her foot down on his groin and taking off into a sprint. There was no time to finish the job and take him out properly as Katie heard gunfire and shouting.

Jonathan fired his last few shots into a Belladonna agent, panting hard before looking up and seeing Katie. Seeing the coast was clear, he ran toward her while ignoring the pain in his arm from being cut. His large hand took her small one and he pulled her along and through the alleyways until they finally reached the parking garage. “Fuck.” He hissed, releasing Katie’s hand and holding his arm. “That bastard got me pretty good.” Pine smiled wryly but carried on, thankfully reaching his car on time.

As soon as they got in, Pine turned the heat on and shed his coat and shirt off. His white t-shirt underneath was spattered with blood. Katie saw his wound and noticed it wasn’t too deep, but it was enough to become a problem. She snatched his shirt from him and tore it up into strips before wrapping it around Jonathan’s muscular arm as he drove.

“Thank you.” He winced, swallowing hard and stepping on the gas. “We can stop once we are out of the city. I just hope that there’s a clinic nearby to stitch this up. It’s irritating.” He frowned at his wound before turning his eyes back on the road.

“Are you gonna be ok to drive for that long? I can take over if you need me to.” Katie placed her hand on his forearm gently.

Jonathan took her hand and placed a kiss to the back of it before glancing at her quickly. “I’ll be ok. It’s just gonna be annoying for a while until we can properly take care of it. I will let you know if it’s too much. All I’m focused on right now is getting us out of here.” He turned his gaze back on the road, taking a few detours to avoid traffic or otherwise.

After about an hour of maneuvering around, the pair were on the highway and setting out for the countryside. Katie kept her eyes peeled for a family clinic of sorts along the road as she was concerned for Jonathan’s wound. She would check in with him every so often to make sure he was doing ok and that if he needed a break, he’d let her take the reins. Eventually, Pine did end up having to tap out due to his arm being sore. To their luck, they happened upon a smaller town three hours from London with a clinic and general store. While Jonathan was getting his wound cleaned and patched up, Katie bought some essential items for their journey as she didn’t know how long they would be going for. She also asked around about different places to visit to make her seem inconspicuous.

“Hey sweetheart.” Jonathan entered the store, wrapping his arm gently around Katie and smiling up at the cashier she was talking to. “Ready to go?”

The female cashier twirled her hair as she looked at Jonathan, batting her eyes and grinning at Katie. “That’s your husband? Lucky one you are.” She winked. “Have a nice trip wherever you two are going~” She waved and began to take care of the next customer in line.

“How’d it go?” Katie stopped him before walking out, taking his coat off to examine the doctor’s handy work.

“It hurts less now that you’re here.” Jonathan grinned, leaning towards her and placing a kiss into her hair. “He said for me to take it easy for the rest of the day so I guess you’re driving.” He shucked his coat back on and took Katie’s hand as they walked out. “I’d suggest that we stop by at a motel for the night, but I don’t want to risk it. You ok with sleeping in the car?” He raised an eyebrow.

Katie nodded and gave his hand a gentle squeeze. “I bought some blankets for a reason to keep us warm.” She opened the trunk of the car, putting the groceries in it. “I grabbed as many essentials as we needed; water, bread, protein bars, granola, peanut butter, crackers, ibuprofen, first aid kit, things to keep us tied over until we find a place to stay.” She grabbed the heavy blankets from the bag and placed them in the back seat of the car. Along with that, she also purchased a few pillows just in case they grew uncomfortable. “Ok, let’s-” She was stopped as Jonathan took her hips, pressing a firm kiss to her lips as he had her pinned against the car. Katie made a small noise as they kissed, her hands sliding up his chest. “Did they give you something else to help with the pain?” She chuckled as she felt Pine pinch her ass.

“Maybe.” He grinned, placing one last kiss to her lips before getting back in the car and buckling up.

Katie rolled her eyes and settled herself in, stepping on the gas and taking off into the setting sun. Occasionally, the brunette glanced over at Jonathan who was currently knocked out cold. The doctor definitely gave him something more than just pain killers it seemed. She smiled at his soft snores and his face smashed against the window, wishing she had her phone to take a video or picture. Katie had to leave it behind at the flat as the possibility of being tracked was too great. Her smile faded as she wondered about Angela, she hoped that the director was alright and that she had gotten out safely. She then remembered about Angela’s family and her toddler- causing her to screech to a halt.

Jonathan just about comically flew forward as Katie hit the breaks. “What-!? Hey, what’s wrong?” He rubbed his eyes, groaning at his now sore neck. “Are you alright?” He noticed that Katie was gripping the wheel rather tightly. “Pull over, tell me what’s wrong.” Pine’s expression fell as he saw tears rolling down her cheeks as she did just so.

“A-Angela. Her baby-” Katie covered her mouth and let out a sob. Memories of that day, the day her baby died flashed through her mind. Her breath began to pick up and all she could think of was the guilt she still held, and the additional worry for Angela. “My baby.” She whimpered, throat tightening.

Sensing that this was likely the place they were going to camp out for the night, Jonathan unbuckled and got out. He was still a little groggy from the medicine, but it did help a lot. Pine walks over to the drivers side and opens the door, kneeling down and taking one of Katie’s hands. “Hey, it’s gonna be ok. Sweetheart can you look at me?” His brows knit together from worry.

Tearful green eyes turned their gaze on Jonathan and Katie slowly unbuckled her seatbelt. “Jonathan I’m sorry. I’m so sorry. I-I killed her-” She felt Jonathan’s arms wrap around her tightly.

“Shhh… You didn't do anything. I'm not mad or upset with you. Come on, I think we should turn in for the night." He released the trembling girl and helped her out of the car. "Wait right here." Pine gave a quick kiss to her head before shutting the passenger door and drivers side. He pulled the car more off the road and into some brush for privacy. Once he was satisfied with how he parked, he got out and rushed over to a still trembling Katie. "You're alright. I've got you, I'm here." He takes her hand gently, kissing the back of it like earlier. "Let's get some sleep. You're overtired and today has been a long day for us both." Pine led Katie over to the car and crawled in the back seat first. Jonathan pat his chest and motioned Katie forward to lay on him.

"You… You won't be uncomfortable?" She sniffled, crawling in and shutting the door.

Jonathan shook his head and pat the pillows behind his head. "You got these for a reason, remember?" He chuckled and flashed a small smile at her.

Katie nodded and gave a small smile of her own, leaning forward and kissing Jonathan’s lips. She lingers there for a moment longer, their lips moving slowly against each other. The brunette pulled away, her eyes lidded and faint blush on her cheeks. She noticed that Jonathan’s eyes were a little darker than before they kissed.

“I know I said we need sleep but… There’s one other way that I can think of that will warm us up and tire us out…” Jonathan spoke quietly, his hands stroking her thigh. “Only if you’re up to it though.” He whispered against her neck, placing soft kisses along her cold skin.

Katie gasped a little from a particular suck to her neck from Pine and her fingers dug into his shoulders. She pulled him away from her neck, staring at him as she began to shed her clothes. Before she knew it, she was pulled into a frenzy of a kiss from Jonathan. Their breathing became hard from their passionate make out and haste of removing clothes, their natural instincts taking over.

Pine growled slightly from the cool air but noticed Katie’s nipples were hard from the chill and leaned down to suck them. His large hands slid up her body, taking her breasts in them as he suckled at her hardened buds.

A shudder ran through Katie's body from Jonathan's attention to her breasts. Her fingers ran through his blonde curls and soft moans escaped her lips.

"Such a beautiful voice." Pine settled his hips between Katie's, grinding his still covered erection on her bare pussy. "I don't think I'll ever get enough of it." He grunts as a wave of pleasure travels through his body.

"Jonathan, please-" Katie whines, watching Pine resume his attention back on her breasts. "I need you." She whispers, wiggling her hips to emphasize this exact need. "Please."

Jonathan released one of her nipples with a soft pop from his lips before pulling his pants and boxer briefs down. His cock sprang out from the confines and dribbled precum onto Katie's vulva. Jonathan reached down, looking to adjust himself before slipping inside of the girl. He hisses from her welcoming heat, hands slamming above Katie on the backdoor interior.

"F-Fuck!" The brunette gasps from the sudden fullness. One of her hands hit the glass window as Jonathan began to move his hips. Her hand dragged down the window and made a mark in the fogged up glass.

Pine growled slightly from his lack of room but made it work as he held Katie tightly against him. "Fuck, I love you so God Damn much." He pants against her lips, unable to stay away from kissing her. Moans were mixed into the soft sounds of bodily fluids and harsh panting from their love making.

Katie's arms wrapped tightly around Jonathan as he rut into her at a controlled pace. She opened her mouth and found Pine's tongue mingling with hers. Her nails dragged down his back from the agonizing pace he was going at. She knew he didn't have much room to work with considering his long legs, so she would just have to put up with it.

The feeling of her nails scratching down his back caused Jonathan to growl loudly. He shifted his position a bit, bending his knees so it allowed him to fuck Katie harder. "Do you want me to come inside of you?" He moans, pressing his forehead against hers and staring into her eyes. His hand travels down, rubbing her clit.

"Y-Yes!! Please!! Please come inside me!!" Katie's hips buck up from the jolt of pleasure. Her lips were inches from Jonathan's, but she found herself staring into his baby blues. "I love you." She whimpers.

"I love you too." Jonathan feels his orgasm approaching and begins to speed his hips, enjoying the feeling of her velvety walls squeezing his cock. "I'm coming-" he presses his lips on hers, body tensing up as he releases his seed into her pussy.

Katie's nails dig into his back as she too comes shortly after. Her whimpers are swallowed up by Jonathan's kiss. They continue to kiss softly until their highs come down and Pine pulls his soft member out. They are both coated in a light layer of sweat that shines in the moonlight.

Jonathan places one last kiss on Katie's forehead before tucking himself away and laying back against the pillows. His eyes dropped from exhaustion and within a few minutes of adjusting his position, pulling Katie to his chest, and pulling the blanket over them; sleep took both of them.

--------------------------

Quiet.

That’s how it had been ever since Katie and Jonathan arrived in a rural town a day away from London. No word from Angela had been received for the first few days they were there and settling in. Thankfully, she had come in contact with them around a week later and informed them that it was best if they stayed in the countryside for a while. The police were now involved with finding Daniel and bringing him down and this made Jonathan relax a little. He could focus on healing with Katie and starting something new. Pine had bought a small cottage on the skirts of town that was big enough for the two of them.

Katie stood in the doorway of an empty room, looking at it wistfully. Jonathan had left it untouched as he didn’t know what else to do with it. The cottage had an office room for him to work from. The brunette suddenly frowned, placing a hand on her forehead and leaning against the beam. “J-Jonathan?” She called out, feeling light headed.

“Is everything alright?” Jonathan called out from his office, getting out of his chair and walking over to where Katie was. His eyes became wide as he saw the girl begin to collapse to the ground and ran over to her, catching her just in time.

“I feel… Strange. I think I need to lay down.” Katie mumbles, grabbing onto Jonathan for support but felt herself being lifted up.

Pine looked at her and nodded, kissing her forehead and taking her to their bedroom. “Do you need anything right now? Do you want me to stay with you?” He raised his eyebrows.

“No. I think I’m just overtired. I stayed up late these past few nights. Couldn’t sleep.” She shut her heavy eyes and nuzzled into the pillow.

“Get some rest then, sweetheart.” Jonathan smoothed her hair back away from her face before placing a kiss to her cheek and going back to the office room.

Once he had left, Katie opened her eyes and pressed her hand to her stomach. “I can’t be. Am I?” She whispered softly to herself and carefully stood up. Her hand reached for the bedside drawer and she pulled out a test stick before creeping over to the bathroom. “My period should have come by now…” she muttered, unwrapping the stick and pulling her pants and underwear down. “Maybe it’s just stress.”

For ten agonizing minutes, Katie sat on the floor of the bathroom. She did want to try again for a baby, but it still felt too soon. Plus, with Daniel still out and about it wasn’t the best idea to be getting pregnant.

“It’s just stress, that’s all it is. I’m just tired.” She hoists herself up and nervously grabs the stick.

A loud thump and scream has Jonathan running out of his office and to their bedroom. “Kate!?” He saw her crumpled on the bathroom floor, sobbing. “Are you-” Before he can ask if she’s hurt, he sees the test stick. Jonathan sighs deeply through his nose and runs a hand through his hair, “A-Are you?” He helps her sit up, looking deep into her eyes.

Tears slide down Katie’s cheeks as she nods, “I’m pregnant.”

Flowers in Blood

A/N: To those who I am tagging, I am sorry for the mass update!! I just want to get this out of the way as I have things planned for the next part of this story~

Summary: Katie and Jonathan do their best to try and recover

Warnings: Smut

Taglist: @lucywrites02 @shiningloki @blo0dangel

Chapter 26: Mallow

A little over two weeks had passed since Katie's rescue and now the lovers were back in London. Just as Pine suspected, Angela didn't take the news too well.

The director clicked her tongue and eyed her best agent with a weary look. “You realize that this case is far from over, right? We still need the body of Daniel Hasapis as proof of death.” She sighed, shuffling reports.

“I understand that Angela, but listen- I, we- This cannot continue.” Jonathan ran a hand through his short curls. “We both know what we signed up for, but this investigation is basically over! Daniel is dead and it’ll only be a matter of time before the Tigress is captured. Please, Angela…” He leaned forward, his face in his hands now. “She just lost the baby-”

“She what?” Angela stopped short, her expression changing into one of sorrow. “You never mentioned that she- I’m so sorry. I cannot imagine what you two are going through right at this moment.”

“Then let us leave! Give us the time to grieve- more so Kate.” Jonathan let out a sob, unable to hold his frustration any longer. He didn’t want to bring up the fact that they lost their daughter or even use it as some sort of crutch. Neither he or Katie expected this to happen. “She’s been sleeping for days ever since we got back and isn’t herself. I didn’t know that she would react so badly.” He choked, wiping his eyes on the sleeve of his jacket.

Angela got up from behind her desk and slowly approached Jonathan, placing a hand on his shoulder. “Crazy things can happen when carrying a child around for a while. A mother’s love is stronger than any kind.” She took a seat next to him and pursed her lips. This was a tough decision to make as Angela didn’t want to have to give either of them up. However, with Katie’s deteriorating mental state she didn’t want to put her out on the line. She gave a firm nod, “I’m relieving Katie off the case. She doesn’t need to be involved anymore.” The director stood up, pacing back and forth, biting her cuticle. “I still need you to be out there though.” She stopped her pacing. “As I said before, this case is not done-”

“Let the police handle it from here!!” Jonathan stood up, anger apparent. “I thought you of all people would understand us, Angela. I am not the same person as I was back when I took out Roper! I have fallen in love with a woman who needs me right now. I don’t want to pretend anymore.” He huffed. “I didn’t think that this would ever happen to me because of my line of work, but it did. I’ve never been so deeply in love as I am now. She means everything to me and is far more important than this case… I’m sorry.” He grabbed his jacket, tugging it on and slamming the door on his way out. He didn’t want to deal with Angela denying him to be with Katie any more. Yes, he understood how important that this mission was and still felt uneasy as hell about it, but all he wanted was to see Katie smile again.

---------------

“JONATHAN!! JONATHAN HELP ME!! JONATHAN!!” Katie screamed, her eyes shut tightly as she was trapped in an awful nightmare. The events of that day still played in her mind and caused her to lose sleep. There was not a night that went by where she didn’t think of her baby and how she lost her little girl. Katie let out another gut wrenching scream, her fists tightly balled in the sheets. “NO!! NO!! PLEASE NOT MY BABY!! PLEASE!!”

As soon as the elevator opened to their level, Jonathan heard the pained screams of his girlfriend and ran down the hall. He quickly scrambled with the keys and unlocked the door, slamming it wide open. “Kate!?” Pine ran to their bedroom and grabbed Katie, holding her tightly and sitting on the bed. He felt her arms wrap around him much like they did during her stay in the hospital.

Katie’s sobs became more quiet as she felt Jonathan’s warmth around her and his familiar scent comforting her. She opened her puffy eyes before shutting them tightly again, burying her face into his chest. “I want my little girl back. I want her back!!” Her fingers dug into the leather of his jacket as she continued to sob.

“I know, baby… I know. I do too, but there’s nothing we can do to bring her back.” Jonathan rubbed her back soothingly, trying to shush her cries further.

“It wasn’t her time!! Sh-She was still growing and a-and-” Katie stopped, gasping for air as she struggled to breathe through her sobs.

Jonathan pulled away from her, grabbing her shoulders firmly. “Kate, hey, baby look at me- look at me. Breathe. Slow deep breaths. Breathe with me.” He instructed, coaching Katie through breaths. “That’s it, just keep breathing darling.”

The brunette shut her tired eyes, falling forward into Pine’s chest and once again wrapping her arms around him. She inhaled deeply, nuzzling her face into his shirt. “Don’t leave.” She whimpered.

“I’m not going anywhere. I’m done going out today so I can be with you.” He placed a kiss on the top of her head before removing her arms from him. “But first I’d like to get settled in for the evening without roasting to death.” He chuckled dryly, shucking his jacket off and getting up to close the door of their flat. Jonathan turned around after locking the door and went into their small kitchen, grabbing a take out menu. “You want chinese tonight?” He called out.

No answer. She hadn’t been eating properly these past two weeks and it was beginning to show.

Sighing, he set the menu down and walked back into their room, sitting beside her. “Kate, you have to eat. I know it’s hard-”

“No you don’t!!” Katie suddenly pulled back and looked at him with wide eyes. “You have no idea how hard it is! The fear I lived in while carrying our child only to have her t-taken from me-” She began to sob again. “I never thought I’d be a mom at 25 or even love something so unconditionally..” She gasped, breathless again.

“You think I didn’t worry about the both of you for those five months?!” Jonathan grit his teeth. “I was scared to death that I’d never see you again!!” Tears began to sting his eyes and he cupped her face, looking her deep in her eyes. “There was not a day that went by that you and the baby were not on my mind. I didn’t sleep properly because I needed you. Kate, fuck. I love you so much-” He leaned in, pressing his lips against hers.

Taken by surprise, Katie froze up a little before melting into his kiss. Her hands grabbed at his shirt, tugging it and feeling a fire light inside of her loins. A spark of passion she hadn’t felt in a very long time. “I need you-” She gasped, taking his shirt off between kisses before shedding her own clothes off.

Jonathan growled as he hungered for something other than sustenance. His teeth nipped at her jawline and traveled down the length of her neck. He placed open mouth kisses along her flesh before sucking a mark into her skin. “Mine.” He breathed out, bucking his hips into hers and pressing his hard on into the apex of her thighs.

His name escaped Katie’s lips as she felt him continue his assault on her neck then moving down to her chest- her breasts. She gasped loudly as her breasts had become sensitive from being pregnant for a short while. Her fingers weaved their way through his golden locks as Katie lost herself in pleasure from Jonathan sucking at her nipples.

Pine grasped her breasts in his large hands, kneading them while suckling at her hardened buds. “You’re so sensitive.” He muttered, kissing her chest and shoving his pants down. “I need you now.” He spread her legs apart, grabbing his cock and positioning the head in front of her entrance. His eyes snapped shut from the delicious, velvety heat enveloping his member. “Fuck- you feel so good.” He gasped.

“Move please.” Katie whined, pulling his head up and locking her lips with his. Her legs fell apart wider as she felt Jonathan begin to snap his hips into her. Katie was so amazingly full of Jonathan and moaned into his open mouth. She had almost forgotten how good she felt when making love with Pine. “Jonathan!!” She cried out, nails digging into his back as she felt his cock pound into her at a faster speed.

“Cry my name out, baby. Just like that-” Pine snapped his hips harder, looking into her eyes as he did so. He was mesmerized by her beautiful green orbs, the ones that haunted him many nights before his declaration of love. His hand snaked down, rubbing her clit gently in slow circles. “F-Fuck.” He gasped as he felt her walls squeeze down on him from his action.

Katie wrapped herself around Jonathan tightly, whimpering and moaning wildly in his ear while her pussy was being pistoned into. She pressed her body as close to his as much as she could. “Come inside of me. Please. Please!!”

Jonathan’s hips slowed down for a moment and he looked into her eyes before coming to a full stop. His cock twitched inside of her cunt as he stared down at her, panting. “Katie, are you absolutely certain you want me to? I will pull out if you still need time. I think it’s too soon.” Pine actually did pull his cock out, concerned. “You’re not doing this to get pregnant again, are you?”

The brunette shook her head, getting up and pushing him down on the bed. “No.” She reached back, grabbing his member and slipping it back inside of her awaiting heat. Katie sat there for a moment, savoring how big he felt inside of her pussy. “I’m doing this because I love you. I want to forget everything that happened- I’m tired of being sad.” She gasped as she began to bounce on his cock. “E-Even if it does happen- We’ll be better prepared. I just want to make love to the man who saved me and owns my heart.” She whimpered, grabbing her own breasts and pinching her nipples. “Please, Jonathan. I need you.”

Taking her words in, Jonathan grabbed her hips tightly and bucked upwards. “You want to forget everything? You’ll at least remember one thing.” He purred, a naughty smirk crossing his lips. “My name.” His voice came out gravelly and he began to thrust into her again. He didn’t care anymore, he didn’t care about the agency anymore, he didn’t care about what Angela had to say, he didn’t even care if he knocked Katie up again. All that mattered was Katie and them moving far away, starting life anew.

Katie moaned loudly as she tried her best to ride Pine’s cock. His name escaped her lips like a mantra as she was impaled over and over, his member hitting every sweet spot. She was lost in a lustful haze as she moved her hips harder, trying to match his speed. “JONATHAN!! FUCK!! FUCK!! OH FUCK!!” She screamed, her orgasm hitting her hard. Katie’s body seized up and she whimpered out Jonathan’s name as her pussy clenched down on his cock.

Jonathan grit his teeth and gasped loudly, “I-I’m coming!!” He feels his balls tighten up as he shoots his load into her awaiting cunt. “Shit.” He pants, laying still for a moment as he hadn’t had sex with Katie in a very long time.

Carefully, the girl removes herself from Jonathan’s cock and whines from feeling empty. She gasps loudly as she is promptly pinned to the bed with a pillow placed underneath her hips.

Jonathan’s eyes are still dark with lust, “After we eat, and I will make sure you eat, Daddy wants to fuck his little girl properly.” He bends down, nipping at her ear. “Daddy is going to breed his little girl until the sun rises to greet the dawn.” He almost purrs in her ear before removing himself off of her. Pine grabs his boxer briefs, putting them on quickly before walking over to the kitchen and grabbing the take out menu.

Katie just lay on the bed, stunned. She did mean what she said… She was done being sad. Her eyes closed and she frowned upon the growling of her stomach. “Cam… I hope you watch over my baby. Take good care of my little girl.” A tear slides down her cheek as she thinks of her brother holding a bubbly, giggly baby girl with blonde hair and large blue eyes. It would still be hard for Katie to come to terms with the loss of her child, but having Pine beside her would make the process go more smoothly. After all, she was just as much of his child as she is Katie’s. Slowly, her hand takes place over her flat stomach and caressing the area lovingly and imagining herself pregnant again. She knew that she and Jonathan would have another child sooner than later, this she was certain of.

“Sweetheart?” Jonathan walked in, freezing in his tracks as he saw Katie just laying there and humming to herself as her fingers caress the skin of her stomach. He swallowed hard and couldn’t help but to blush at the sight, she looked so peaceful like this. Shaking his head, he walks over, sitting on the edge of the bed and looking down at his beloved. “Twenty minutes until food is ready. I decided to order from the pub down the street instead of Chinese.” He pushes her damp bangs out of her eyes. “Didn’t want to venture too far away from you.” He continued to caress her hair. “How are you feeling? A bit better than before?”

“Much.” She replied softly, nuzzling into his touch. “I don’t think the nightmares will end any time soon, but I think you keep them at bay. At least for a little while. I’m feeling fine though- I did mean it though, I’m not trying to get pregnant so soon again… Though I want to.” She bit her lip, looking away from Jonathan. “I just feel so- so robbed.” She sighed, shifting over to make room for Pine.

“Robbed as in she was taken from us too soon?” The blonde man spoke softly, caressing her collarbone with his fingers.

Katie nodded and pulled the pillow out from underneath her in favor of cuddling up to Jonathan’s side. “Robbed of being a mother. Robbed of you being a father.” She began to tear up, but she knew she needed to talk about this with him. “Jonathan, despite everything that’s happened I was so happy to create life with you.” Her voice wavered.

“Kate-” Jonathan pulled her closer, capturing her lips in a deep kiss. He turned on his side for a better angle and to press her bare body against his own. Pine moaned softly in her mouth at the feeling of her soft breasts pressing against his bare chest. His large hands roamed her frame, tracing her curves. He was touched by her words more than she knew and wanted to show her just how much that meant to him. His cock began to ache for her heat again, becoming half hard with their heavy make out session.

“Jonathan I want to have a baby with you so bad.” Katie broke their kiss, pressing her forehead on his and shedding a few tears. “I want everything with you, I want to share my life with you-” She was silenced by another passionate kiss, her tears stopping.

“Shhh..” He nuzzled his nose against hers and held her close, ignoring his hard on. “I feel the same way, sweetheart. I want nothing more than that- but right now what I want is that pub sandwich I ordered.” He chuckled at her pout as he got up and threw some clothes on. “And you will eat the sandwich I got for you too.” Jonathan leaned down, cupping her face and kissing her again.

Katie wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling her body close to his and tugging at his shirt. She didn’t want him to leave her alone. “Let me come with you.” She panted, getting up off the bed and shimmying on her own clothes.

“You sure? It is the middle of December and it’s actually really cold out right now.” He raised an eyebrow.

She nodded and took his hand, looking at him. “I feel safer when I’m with you.”

--------

Fifteen minutes after dinner was finished, clothes were strewn all over the flat.

“D-DADDY!!” Katie whimpered loudly, grabbing Jonathan’s hair as he feasted upon her pussy. Her breasts rose with each breath she inhaled and her mind was as muddled as it had been not too long ago.

Jonathan growled, dragging the flat of his tongue over her wet cunt and flicking her clit with the tip of his tongue. “This is better than what we had for dinner-” He grinned, crawling back up but slipping two fingers into her pussy. “Tell daddy how good his fingers feel inside your cunt.” He began to slip his fingers in and out, curling them for added measure.

“O-Oh my god!!” The brunette grabbed the bed sheets, looking up into Jonathan’s baby blues as he fucked her pussy with his fingers. “Y-Your fingers feel so much better than mine daddy. They’re so long and H-HIT!!” She squeals from her g-spot being touched and loses her train of thought as she feels Jonathan’s thumb press down on her swollen clit. Her body is writhing in pleasure and she feels an orgasm approaching. “Daddy may I please c-come? Please, daddy.” She whines.

Jonathan continues to fuck her pussy with his fingers and licks his lips. “You have been such a good girl tonight for me, can you hold it until I tell you?” He picked up the speed of his fingers, watching as Katie tried her best not to come. “That’s it, good girl. Hold it. Keep holding it.”

Katie’s legs trembled as her body was begging for the coil in her belly to spring free. “Daddy, I-I’m trying.” She gasps, fighting the urge.

“I know you are and you’re doing so well- keep holding it just like that. Such a good girl.” He leaned down, sucking one of her nipples to test how long she could carry on.

“P-Please!! Let me cum!! Please daddy!!” She begged, whining at the overstimulation.

“Do it. Come now.” Jonathan ordered.

A flood gate of pleasure was unleashed, washing over Katie’s body and causing the small of her back to arch slightly and shoulders to tense up. Clear fluid squirt from her pussy onto Jonathan’s arm as she gasped from how powerful this orgasm came over her.

Pine’s cheeks turned a bright red as this was a first. Sure, he’s given women many mind blowing orgasms but he’s never made a woman squirt before. He moaned at the sight, his cock pulsing with desperate need. “Fuck that was so hot.” he mounts her, capturing her lips in a searing kiss.

Both of them moaned in unison as Pine slipped his aching cock into Katie’s pussy. Like before, Katie held onto Jonathan tightly as he began to fuck her hard. “Daddy!! Daddy!!” She gasps, her cunt fluttering around his length.

“Tell me what you want, babygirl.” He pinned her hands to the side of her head as he snapped his hips into her, his balls smacking against her.

“I-I want you daddy!! I want you to come inside me!! Put a baby inside me!! Please daddy!! Please make me a mommy!!” She threw her head back, exposing her luscious neck to Pine.

Taking advantage of marked skin, Jonathan bent down and sucked marks into the hollow of her neck, releasing her hands. He buried his face into the crook of her neck, wrapping his arms around her tightly as his hips picked up speed. His hot breath coated the side of her neck as he panted hard. “You want me to put a baby inside of you?” he growled, blunt of his nails digging into the skin of her back.

“Yes!! Yes!! Breed me daddy!! Breed my pussy!!” Her nails drag down his sweat laced back. “Please-” Katie gasps as she suddenly feels empty. Large hands force her to be on all fours with her ass up in the air. Her eyes roll as she feels Jonathan’s thick, long cock slip back into her pussy.

Pine kissed her back and bit her shoulders while he fucked her like an animal. “Who does this pussy belong to?” One of his arms comes up from underneath her and gently grabs her throat. He wouldn’t choke her as that was something triggering, but she did give him the ok to hold her neck like this.

“Y-You!” She squeaked, grabbing his free hand and pressing it to the flat of her stomach. “It belongs to you daddy!” She whimpers.

Guiding her hand down, Jonathan places it over her clit and begins to touch it with her. “You are to come on my cock, is this understood?” He pants in her ear.

She gasps as a second wave begins to build up, “Yes daddy! Please come inside of me!! Please! Daddy- I’m coming!! I’m coming-” Katie shudders hard under his hold as her orgasm hits her hard.

“Oh fuck-” Jonathan follows not too far behind. His thick seed coats her walls as he lazily thrusts to get the rest out. He bends down, kissing her shoulder blades and up her spine. “Are you alright? Was that too much?” He pants.

Katie shakes her head no, her body still trembling. “I’m ok. I just never expected all of that.” She gave a breathless chuckle, collapsing on the bed as soon as Jonathan pulled out.

Pine flashes a smile at her and winks, laying beside her and grabbing her to cuddle. “I wasn’t expecting that either.” His long digits mindlessly caress over her arm. “I liked it though, I want to try that again sometime but I don’t want to put too much on your plate… Even if you’re out of commission now.” He sighed.

“It just gives me more time to heal from everything that’s happened… I’m actually happy Angela decided to take me off the case. It’ll be over sooner than not and we can… Can.. What are we going to do? Aside from raise a family?” She quirked a brow up.

“I think… We should open up an Inn over in the countryside of the UK. We could go to Ireland if you want- since your name is extremely Irish.” He teased, earning a playful slap from Katie.

“That actually sounds nice though. I wouldn’t mind that at all.” She scoots closer to him, yawning and resting her head on his chest.

Just as Pine reached over to turn out the lamp and go to bed for the night, his cellphone rang. He let out a groan and noticed it was Angela. “I’m sorry about-”

“We can talk about all that later, you need to take Katie and run. Now. There are Belladonna agents crawling all over the place right now and wreaking havoc! What’s worse is that you didn’t finish the job well enough. Daniel is still alive and on his way to England at this moment.”

Flowers in Blood

A/N: I had a hard time writing this chapter due to the nature of it...

Summary: Loss

Warnings: Graphic description of violence, miscarriage and horror

Taglist: @shiningloki @lucywrites02 @blo0dangel

Chapter 25: Chrysanthemum

The next three months had Katie on edge as she waited for Jonathan. It was December at this time and she was four months along in her pregnancy. The signs of showing were obvious now and she started dressing in more maternal clothing. Over the course of the three months, Daniel had become increasingly violent and unpredictable. He almost caused Katie to miscarry at one point because of his seething rage. On top of that, security had been increased and around late October, Nthanda was sent away to another location after Daniel found out she and Katie were secretly meeting up. The two women were devastated by this move and didn't even get a chance to say goodbye. Katie prayed that Nthanda wouldn't be hurt and that hopefully she would escape. Here she was now, staring out the window and watching the snowfall.

"How many times have I told you to stop staring out that damn window!?" Daniel yanked Katie by her arm and squeezed it.

"Stop!! Daniel stop!! You're hurting me!!" She began to panic, trying to shove him off of her. "STOP!!" she screamed as the pain of his grip became worse. "I-I'll stop looking out the window!! Please stop!!" Katie pulled back, rubbing her arm and tears stinging her eyes.

"There will be no freedom for you, little mouse." He grinned. "You are not to stay in any room with windows during the day. Instead, I will have you be my good little wife and fuck me-" his hand tried to bunch up the skirt of her dress.

Katie smacked him across the face, shaking and instantly regretting it. She made a small choking noise as she felt Daniel's hand wrap around her throat tightly. Her eyes widened as she saw him pull out his switchblade and gently drag it over her belly. Katie shook her head as best as she could, eyes pleading him not to hurt her baby.

"I think you forget who is in charge here, little mouse." He pressed the blade harder to the swell of her stomach. "Give me a good reason why I should not cut you open where you stand. I have allowed you to carry another man's child thus far. You should be more grateful-"

"SIR!!" A guard slammed the door to their bedroom open, panting.

Daniel removed his hand from Katie's throat and put his blade back. "What unimportant business could you have to interrupt my time with my wife?" He growled, following the guard out as he said something about a break in.

The brunette grabbed one of the chairs in their room and sat down in it, trying to catch her breath. Her hand cradled her small bump and she began to cry hard. Katie was beginning to think that Jonathan wasn't coming for her after all. She covered her face in her hands and sobbed, knowing she couldn't get out of this. There were several occasions where she did try and found some secret passages; but her efforts were futile.

After around ten more minutes, Katie sniffled, wiping her eyes on the sleeve of her dress. She didn't want to dirty this dress too much as it was rather cute. It was a casual two tone maternity dress. She stood up, wanting to have one last look outside before she was forbidden to do so. Placing her hand on the glass, she watched as the snow continued to cover the grounds of the gardens. Her lower lip quivered as she began to cry again. She wasn't allowed to do anything but sit quietly and wait for Daniel to return everyday. Katie walks away from the window, not before shutting the curtains to all 4 windows, and resuming her place back in the chair. She stared at the markings on the wood floor, continuing to cry softly. Katie jumped at the sound of heavy footsteps outside of the room and sat up straight. Her eyes were kept to the ground as she awaited Daniel to enter. However, the sound of gunfire caused her to get up and run to the side of the bed. What in the hell was going on? The door creaked open slowly once the gunfire stopped.

The footsteps grew louder as they entered the room, floorboards creaking under the weight of the stranger. Katie backed up into the side of the bed as far as she could, covering her mouth. Her eyes shut tightly and her body wracked with fear. The footsteps became cautious as they approached the giant bed. What could this intruder want? Katie froze as she heard the footsteps grow even louder. She couldn't defend herself like she used to as it would put more strain on her body, and potentially harm the baby. A bead of sweat rolled down Katie's face as she sat there in complete terror. Her eyes became wide as a masked figure turned sharply around the corner and grabbed her arm. "NO!! NO!! PLEASE DON'T HURT ME!!" She sobbed, trying to pry the stranger's hand off of her arm.

"Unless you want to hurt yourself instead, I suggest you cooperate." A thick russian accent spoke from under the mask. The stranger pulled Katie up, pointing their gun to her. "Move it. Keep going until we reach the cellar." They poked the tip of the barrel against her back.

Flinching, Katie nodded and did as she was told. She cried silently as she hastily walked to the cellar. Upon her arrival, she noticed the two other wives were tied up and gagged.

"Get on the ground. Daniel is being held in a different room for interrogation. We have unfinished business with him." The man spoke, shoving Katie to the ground and tying her arms behind her back.

Malee, one of the wives, began to struggle against her restraints. She was attempting to say something.

The masked man sighed and stomped over to the wives, ripping her gag down.

"You cannot hurt her like that or put her under pressure! She is with child!!" Malee looked from Katie to the masked man. "All of this stress could put her into premature labor!!"

Katie looked at Malee with large, tear filled eyes. It seems that the wives did care about her well being, they just couldn't show it out of fear of Daniel.

"Let us tend to her. You can send as many of your goons down here as you wish to watch us." Malee glared and clenched her jaw.

Sabine and Tahirah nodded in agreement, looking at Katie with worry.

Without hesitation, the masked man cut the restraints. "I will send five men down. Do not make me regret this." He then walked over to Katie and removed hers too. "I will be back within ten minutes." He walked up the creaking stairs. True to his word, five men walked down and stared at the women.

The three wives headed over to Katie, assessing her mental status to make sure she was alright.

"I-I'm ok." Katie swallowed, her arms wrapped around herself. Tears continued to trail down her cheeks. She appreciated the wives rubbing her back and doing their best to comfort her.

"I am sorry we did not reach out to you like Nthanda did." Tahirah apologized, placing a hand on the young expecting mother's shoulder.

"Daniel would have beaten us, and then you." Sabine added. "We did not want to risk you or your baby's lives."

The american woman nodded, giving a soft smile and thanking them all. "This baby wasn't even planned. I had to accept it the minute I found out… I can't say I'm upset. The father of my child is such a wonderful man." Katie smiled fondly down at her belly, relaxing her arms to cradle her small bump. "He's so kind, considerate, funny, the most handsome man I've ever met.." her fingers caressed her stomach. "I couldn't ask for a better person to have this baby with."

Talking about her love for Pine calmed Katie down significantly. However, it also made her sad as she couldn't be with him right now- in his arms. She missed Jonathan more than anything. The next ten minutes were spent talking about Katie, Pine and their baby.

"I was thinking if it's a girl we will name her Sophia. If it's a boy, I really like the name Kit-" The young mother looked up as heavy footsteps thundered down the stairs. She felt the wives surround her in a protective formation.

"Give me the American." The masked man waved his hand. "Do it now or we shoot." He warned.

Katie stood up, shaking her head at the other three women. "I'll be o-okay." She lied, not knowing what would happen. Taking a deep breath, she gently pushed Malee aside and walked over to the masked man who promptly grabbed her by the arm.

"You will come with me quietly." He ordered.

"Then you let the others free." Katie spoke quickly, her anger flaring up. "I will go with you if you let the women free. If you are here to somehow help us, then get them out. Daniel is a sick man and I know you're not here to be friends with him. Please… Let them go."

The room became quiet for a moment. Katie continued to look into the unidentifiable mask of the man holding her. The masked man turned to his men, giving a nod.

With the signal given, the men walked over, grabbing the wives and filing them out one by one. Katie prayed that the man would keep to his promise. "Thank you." She sighed, some relief washing over her.

The man said nothing, only shoving her upstairs like the rest and taking her to a different hallway. "Arkady!" The masked man called, whistling over yet another masked man. "Take this one to him and make the bargain." He shoved Katie at Arkady.

"Understood." Arkady nodded, taking Katie by the arm and leading her toward the front of the manor. He pulled her over into an unoccupied room before closing the door.

Katie stood in the middle, holding herself and shaking hard. "Please don't hurt me." She whispered as Arkady came closer.

The Russian man grabbed Katie's arm again and held her in place as two others came in with Daniel in restraints.

"What is all of this shit? You break into my home and terrorize me? What do you want?" Daniel spat, snarling like a rabid dog.

"We have come to make a deal." Arkady spoke loud and clear, releasing his grip on Katie. "Let the girl go and you live. You are free to do as you please."

Daniel froze, a grin cracking across his face. "You really think I'm going to give up my favorite whore that easy? Just who do you think I am? You caused all of this ruckus just for a whore? Pathetic. Here I thought that maybe you would want to stop my little plan I have. The one involving innocent lives being lost? All because you had to interfere? Mmm you are not so slick, Pine. "

Katie turned to Arkady and looked at him with wide eyes. They sparkled in the sunlight filtering through the window. "Jonathan?" She whispered breathlessly.

"No. I am Arkady Vadislav, I know nothing of this Jonathan or Pine you speak of." He pulled his helmet off.

Much to Katie's disappointment, the man was indeed not Jonathan. His hair was black and jawline not as sharp.

"He put you up to this then. There is only one person I know who wants my little rose more than anything. For that-" Daniel smirked, twisting his arms out of the two holding him. He pulled out a hunting knife he kept on him and slashed one of the men's throat while stabbing the other in the abdomen. "I'm going to do what I promised. He did not do as I say so it is thousands of lives, for his." He pulled his phone out and held it to his ear.

"STOP!! DANIEL STOP IT!!" Katie screamed, now realizing what he was doing. "DANIEL!!" She started to tremble hard, yanking herself from Arkady. She tried to grab the phone from Daniel but was punched across the face and fell to the floor.

"DON'T TOUCH HER!!" Daniel growled at Arkady, throwing his knife aside and pulling his gun out; shooting him point blank in the head. He reached down, grabbing Katie's wrist hard as he continued to be on his call. "You, my dear, will suffer for your actions! When I am finished with this call, that abomination in your womb will be cut out of you." He smiled wickedly.

The brunette's jaw fell in horror and she whimpered in fright. She began to squirm, trying to free herself from him until she saw one of the agents crawl toward the knife. To keep Daniel under assumption, she continued to squirm.

"Yes it's me. Set them off- AARRGGHHHHHHHH!!!" Daniel shrieked loudly, holding the stump of what once was his hand.

The masked man got up, holding his stomach before scooping Katie up and making a run for it out of the room. Blood soaked his front and stained Katie's dress.

"St-Stop! You're hurt!!" She pressed her hand to his belly and gasped at her blood covered hand.

"I am… Fine." The man spoke, trudging on and eventually getting outside. He coughed hard, falling onto the snow covered concrete.

The wind whipped them both as a storm approached.

"No you're not." Katie strained her back a little to help the man up. "I'm not letting you die!" She pressed her hand against the wound, applying pressure.

"Car. There is a car." He gasped, pointing to a blue vehicle only a short distance away. "Please, you will only hurt yourself." He dropped to the ground and chuckled underneath his helmet.

Katie knelt down, shivering hard but trying to help the man up. "Please. Let me help you." She sobbed, not wanting another person to die by Daniel's hands. "Tell me your name."

"It is Vadim." He croaked and placed a gloved hand on hers. "You are most kind, but it is too late for me. I know it is. By the time you would get me to a hospital, I will have already died." He wheezed.

The wind blasted across the terrain, causing Katie to fall back a little from the force. "Vadim-"

"No. It is too late." His voice began to fade. "I am glad I saved… Two… " his body became limp.

Katie gasped, covering her mouth with her clean hand and got up to the best of her ability. She shivered violently from the icy winds and trudged on through the snow to the car. A bullet whizzed past her head, causing her to scream and turn around.

Daniel laughed, holding his tourniquet close to his chest to stop his stump from bleeding out. He licked his lips, firing another shot at Katie. "SUCH A BAD ROSE!!" He shouted, powering through the wind.

With the storm picking up faster, the car began to get out of sight. Katie ran as best as she could to the vehicle. As soon as her hands touched the frozen metal, she was pinned to the hood. "NO!! PLEASE DON'T KILL ME!! PLEASE- AGH!" She was punched across the face.

Daniel had her pinned underneath him and he breathed hard, pulling out the same knife that cut his hand off. "Pine cut something from me- now I will cut something from him!" He cut Katie's dress down the middle, exposing her top half to the mercy of the storm. He grinned at her screams. "Cry all you want, little rose!! There is no stopping me now!" He began to cut down her belly.

Katie's back arched and her mouth hung open as pain seared through her body. A blood curdling scream tore through her lungs as she felt the blade sink deeper. "STOP IT!! STOP PLEASE!! PLEASE DANIEL!!" she begged, her heart breaking. "PLEASE DON'T KILL MY BABY-" She stopped as another pain hit her lower half.

The crime lord stopped as he saw blood running down Katie's legs. He began to laugh as he realized what was happening. "I didn't have to kill it. You did." He watched as Katie fell to the ground, shrieking of intense pain. Another scream followed in suit, but not one of Katie's. Turning around, Daniel was met with the butt of a gun to his face.

Jonathan flipped the gun around, firing several shots into Daniel before tossing the gun aside and scooping Katie up. Pine was almost certain that the crime lord was dead after putting around six bullets into him. "Hold on, Kate. Hold on!" He opens the back door of the car and sets Katie down on the seats. Pine slams the door shut and hops in, cranking the heat up and slamming on the gas.

"Jonathan!!" Katie wailed, gasping for breath. Her body was working to force out the stillborn. She screamed bloody murder, weakly reaching down and pushing her panties off to the best of her ability. The wound Daniel had inflicted earlier only added to misery.

Pine turned around, looking at Katie. He was heart broken. "Hang on. Please. Don't close your eyes!!" He begged, looking at the road and speeding faster.

Katie let out another scream, her eyes clenched shut as her body continued to work her stillborn out. She dug her nails into the leather of the car seat as she felt the urge to push.

The smell of blood was overwhelming and made Pine sick to his stomach. He held his nausea at bay until finally reaching a hospital. Kicking the door open, he launched himself out and ripped the door open on Katie's side. He carefully picked her up, not even bothering to close the car doors as he ran for the building.

-Six hours later-

"Mr. Starks?" A nurse shook Jonathan's shoulder gently.

Pine jolted awake and blinked a few times, looking at the nurse. "Is my wife ok?" He asked quickly, slowly standing up.

The nurse nodded and led him to Katie's room. "We were unable to save the child as it had already died upon arrival." She said regrettably and bowed her head. "Your wife… She… She is not taking the news well. Mrs. Starks is all stitched up and we have cleaned her womb of any remnants of her pregnancy. However, she has been rather inconsolable. Which is understandable. I will come and check up on you in a few minutes." She nodded and opened the door for Jonathan.

When he entered, he noticed Katie sitting up and touching her now flattened stomach. Any emotion on her face was gone and her eyes were blank. “Kate…” Jonathan whispered her name breathlessly upon seeing her. His heart broke at the state of her being.

“My baby. Gone.” She muttered softly, not looking at Jonathan. “My baby-” Katie inhaled sharply, covering her face and letting out a gut wrenching cry. Her body shook with her broken sobs.

Jonathan made his way over to Katie and wrapped his arms around the hysterical girl, squeezing his eyes shut as tears of his own began to form.

Katie’s arms quickly found their way around Pine, her fingers digging into his back as she continued to sob. “I-I’m so sorry- I killed our baby- I killed-”

“No you didn’t. None of this is your fault, sweetheart.” Jonathan pulled away, cupping her face and wiping her tears with his thumbs. “Do not blame yourself for what happened.” He pressed a firm kiss to her forehead, holding his own sobs at bay.

The brunette would not release her grip and even pulled him down onto her bed despite her sutures.

“Hey, hey take it easy.” Pine’s eyebrows knit together in worry from his heavy weight on her healing body. He adjusted himself and got underneath the blanket, pulling Katie close to him as comfortably as he could. The last thing he wanted was for her to be in any more pain than she already was.

Katie winced as she spooned to Jonathan’s side, her abdomen extremely sore from the staples and cleaning procedure. She didn’t exactly care at the moment as all she wanted was to be in Jonathan’s arms. The girl had dearly missed how safe she felt in his embrace. She felt like nothing could hurt her at all.

“You don’t have to worry about him anymore. I took care of him. I’m fairly certain that six bullets is enough to snuff a man out.” Pine sighed, placing another smooch to Katie’s head and rubbing her back. He paused for a moment, thinking about what the hell would come for them next. Jonathan knew that he’d have to break the news to Angela at some point during the day, but he also knew that there was still a large mess to clean up. The riots were still going and Root had followed through with their mission upon killing thousands of innocent people. Jonathan had seen it on the TV in the waiting room while Katie was under anesthesia. The sight horrified him as he had been too late to stop it. To add to misery, the Tigress was now on the run and in hiding from the authorities. He could only guess when she would eventually be caught and locked away for good. With Daniel dead, it seemed that this whole thing would sort itself out, but with the amount of destruction he had left behind there was still much to solve. “I’m going to give Angela a call soon and tell her everything that has happened." He paused, thinking carefully about what he would say next. His immediate thought was to send Katie back to the USA where she would be much safer. However, given her stubbornness and love for him, it would be impossible to bargain that. While in Japan during their two weeks of hospitalization, Katie had admitted that she had nowhere to go. If she flew back to the USA, she wouldn't even know where to start and that there was no home for her to return to. She told Jonathan that he was home to her.

"It… It was a girl." Katie broke Jonathan's concentration.

"What?"

"We were going to have a d-daughter." She clarified, her lower lip quivering again.

Jonathan’s heart sank again and he placed a hand over his mouth, inhaling deeply and clenching his jaw. He closed his teary blue eyes, trying not to think about it too much but how could he not when that was his baby girl? His daughter he would never meet or raise with Katie. “Sh-She’s with Cam now.” His voice cracked a bit. “Uncle Cameron is taking good care of her.” He tried to comfort Katie the best he could. Tears slid down his sharp cheeks as he gazed down at the woman he loved. Those green eyes so full of sadness shook Jonathan to his core. He would wipe every single tear that she ever shed and made a promise to himself that this was the end of playing around. It was time for them to move past this and be done with being spies for good.

------------

"SIR-" One of Daniel's goons stopped in his tracks upon seeing his boss on his knees. The storm continued to rage on.

Daniel began to laugh, his unyielding rage keeping him alive.

The henchman could only stand aside as he watched his boss completely lose it. He had never seen Daniel like this before…

"PIIIIIIINE!!!!"

Flowers in Blood

A/N: This chapter will be a little surprising..

Summary: Daniel shows how ruthless he can truly be

Warnings: Death and abuse

Taglist: @lucywrites02 @shiningloki @blo0dangel

Chapter 24: Belladonna

After the harrowing ordeal of what transpired back in China, Katie was taken back to Russia. Her very first day she was forced to marry Daniel and now had a ring on her finger. Naturally, she cried but they were not tears of happiness. While she was dressed to the nines and the dress she was put in was indeed beautiful, she could only feel sorrow. The house that Daniel lived in was one of elegance and rumored to be once occupied by the Czar. That was something Katie could believe as the palace-like structure was hidden away in the mountains. The interior had all sorts of religious paintings ranging from Angel's to cherubs to the disciples. It looked like a building from the 19th-20th century.

Some of Daniel's other wives resided in this location as well, but they were told not to interact with Katie. Only one of the wives, Nthanda from Africa, seemed eager to break that rule. The other wives that resided there were Malee from Thailand, Tahirah from Egypt, and Sabine from Germany. They were all conditioned to obey under fear as Daniel had been extremely cruel. Even speaking out of turn was rumored to earn one a beating.

Katie stared out the window of hers and Daniel's shared bedroom. She was his latest obsession and would be forced to share a bed with him. There were plenty of supervised things to do around here, but all Katie wanted to do was stare out of the window. Her hand gently rested upon her now slightly raised belly as a month had passed. She had to make a deal with Daniel and give her child up for adoption if she did not want anything to happen to them. The leader of Belladonna warned he had no issue with accidents.

The door creaked open and Katie flinched, heart pounding and expecting it to be Daniel. "Please, let me rest. I can't do it right now." Katie begged, assuming her husband wanted to rape her again.

"It is not him. Only me." An accented voice called softly. Nthanda's head poked into the room and she slipped inside. "I have come to talk."

Katie blinked a few times, sighing out of relief that it wasn't him. "About? I don't mean to be rude, but I don't want to be the reason for you getting hurt."

Nthanda closed the door as quietly as she could and tip toed over to Katie. "I do not care about what happens to me. I want to be your friend. None of the other girls will do that and have even shunned me." She gave Katie a sad smile. "You seem different from the others." She gently took Katie's hand in hers.

Their skin tones drastically opposed each other with Katie being a pale ivory and Nthanda having dark skin. The brunette found it rather beautiful and smiled softly at Nthanda. "I would love to be your friend. You are the only person who has shown me kindness so far." A tear slipped down her cheek.

The African woman gave Katie's hand a squeeze and then released it. She fumbled in her coat pocket and pulled out some cookies. "Here. I thought we could perhaps share these while we get to know each other better. You are most welcome. In my village, we would welcome anyone of any kind. My mother always taught me that generosity goes a long way." Nthanda sat down on the ground, taking a bite of a cookie. "Do not worry, I have Daniel's route timed and we should have a good hour or two today before he comes back."

During those two hours, Katie and Nthanda spoke of where they came from and what their lives were like growing up. Hearing Nthanda's story of wanting to become an English teacher,and the struggles she went through to get there warmed Katie's heart. She found out that not too long after she became one, Daniel and his men snatched her in the middle of the night. Apparently, he had seen her in the city and even spoke with her briefly before deciding he would have her. Katie explained her situation and was hesitant to tell her new friend about Abbadon and her pregnancy.

Nthanda's beautiful, large brown eyes widened and she placed her hand on Katie's stomach. "What a lovely blessing God has given you! I mean, it is a blessing in my eyes since the child's father is the man you love. I hope we can all escape this hell, none of us deserve it. Even if the other girls are colder to us, they did nothing to deserve this fate." She removed her hand and got up, making sure she didn't leave too much evidence behind. Nthanda took Katie's hand, helping her up before giving her a large hug. "It has been such a pleasure to make a beautiful friend like you." She looked into the american woman's green eyes.

"Thank you, Nthanda. I appreciate your kindness more than you know. I look forward to our next visit." She saw her new friend out before quietly shutting the door. Katie walked back over to the window seat and resumed her place, staring out the window. She was truly grateful for Nthanda wanting to reach out to her. However, she still couldn't shake the sadness off.

"Is this what you do all day? Stare out the damn window?" Daniel had entered their room quietly, causing Katie to flinch.

The brunette woman shook her head and felt fear creep up her spine. "N-No, I don't. I read." She places her hand gently upon a novel she had found. The book was about a misunderstood and misguided prince from another world. He conquered earth and sought to rule it, but fell in love with a mortal woman.

"You should be doing neither of those. You stupid girl." Daniel growled, loosening his tie. He snapped his fingers at her and pointed to the bed.

Taking a deep breath, Katie stood from her seat and stripped herself of her clothing. She had actually been given clothes she never would have been able to afford since her arrival. With hesitant steps, she walks to the bed and lays there while completely naked. She closes her green eyes and holds back a whimper as Daniel begins his normal routine of violating Katie. All she could do to hold on was think about Jonathan and be wrapped in his arms; where she truly felt at home.

-------------------

Several hours passed by and the sky had become dark. Katie had ended up on the floor, holding the sheets to her bare body. A bruise was beginning to form on her cheek from Daniel hitting her as he raped her. The brunette wept softly, clutching the sheet and leaning against the wall next to the bed. Her hand rested upon her tiny bump as she cried, thankful that Daniel didn't hurt her baby. She gasped loudly as the doors opened, her grip on the sheet tightening.

"Oh dear, what have I stumbled upon here?" Richard walked in, shutting the door behind him. He placed his hands in his pockets and raised his eyebrows, looking around. "I think I am lost! The place is so bloody huge it's easy to become disoriented…" he stops as he can see Katie shaking and curled in a ball. "Oh come now, I'm not here to hurt you."

"Then you weren't truly lost. You knew where to find me, I'm not stupid." Katie sniffled and exhaled shakily. "What do you want?"

Roper walked towards her direction, pulling a chair out from the lounge area in the bedroom and sitting across from Katie. He rolled his eyes as he saw her flinch again. "Daniel is stupid letting people come and go in here as they please." He muttered before turning his attention back to the frightened woman. "I don't want anything from you, dear. However, without having Pine here to torment, I've grown bored." He leans back and folds his hands over his lap.

Katie narrowed her eyes and stopped her tears momentarily. "Stop bullshitting around and tell me why you are here. You came to me for a reason."

"That I did. I can see you're not one for games seeing as old Jonny boy played one too many on you." He noticed her shift uncomfortably and smirked. Roper reached into his coat pocket and pulled his phone out, dialing a number. "I am bored and want to drag my own game out a little longer… Like I said, Daniel is a bloody moron." He pressed the call button and handed his phone to Katie.

With shaky hands, the girl hesitantly took the phone and put it up to her ear. Katie stared at Roper, watching him for any sudden movements. A loud sigh answered the call.

"Roper, I thought I-" she heard Jonathan begin.

"Jonathan!!" A smile spread across her face, happy tears sliding down her cheeks. "Jonathan it's me! It's not a trick, no."

---------------

"Kate." Jonathan covered his mouth, tears stinging his eyes and a sob building up in his chest. "Are you ok? Is he at least letting you eat?" Pine waited hesitantly for her answer. He listened as she told him that she was forced to marry him but that she had found a friend in one of his other wives. Katie was indeed being fed, bathing, and dressed in normal clothes. "Do you know where you are?" Jonathan leaned against the wall in his flat and began to chew his nails. "Russia again, huh? Make sure to threaten Roper into letting us track his signal." Pine smiled at the scoff he heard in the back from Richard. He bit his lip and sighed, "I am going to get you back. I promise you…" he paused and gulped, a curiosity eating him alive. "Is… Is it mine? The b-baby." He clarified. His heart felt like it was going to explode when she confirmed that it was his. She had taken a plan B after Travis had done all those awful things to her. There wasn't any way it couldn't be Jonathan's. He rubbed the back of his neck, "I'm going to be a dad…" the realization still hit him like a freight train, but it was all the more reason to get her back.

"Sorry, chap." Richard's voice replaced Katie's.

"Roper please . Let me track where you are so I can come get her." Jonathan begged him, now pacing. "Just one more time. Please." He sounded weak and lost. "I love her so much. I need her."

------------------

Roper thought for a moment of how letting Jonathan track his location would benefit his little game. "Fine. This is the last favor I'll ever do." He hung up and slid his phone back in his pocket.

Katie's smile had disappeared and she looked to the floor. Her sad gaze taking residence on her pretty face.

"This is probably a horrible time to say this, but congrats mum. I guess that shag in Korea turned out to be more exciting than either of you presumed." He grinned as he saw her shoot him a dirty glare. "Come now, lass. I let you have your time with your "baby daddy" and I am letting him come to get you. You should consider yourself lucky." Roper stood from his seat and placed the chair back in its original position. "Good luck." He grinned before exiting out the door.

Katie covered her mouth, tears falling again as her heart ached to be with Jonathan. Slowly, she stood up and let the blanket fall as she trekked to the giant bathroom. Katie took her gaudy wedding ring off, not wanting to put it back on ever again. She filled the giant bathtub with hot water and quickly got in as she wanted to rid her body of Daniel. Her hand traveled down to her belly again and she gently rubbed the barely noticeable bump. "Your father is coming to get us, sweetheart. We will be safe with him. I'm sure he will love you just as much as I do." She spoke to the baby growing inside of her. Katie never thought she would be a mother and didn't even know if she wanted to be one. It was too late for that now, but she couldn't ask for a better man to be the father. She wouldn't let Daniel take her child away from her. "I'll protect you, I promise."

--------------------

"Roper gave you coordinates?" Angela folded her arms over her chest and eyed Jonathan with suspicion. "I don't like the sound of that, not one bit. It sounds like some sort of trap and you're walking right into it." She sighed.

"Please, Angela I have to go alone. We don't have any other choice! Who knows what Daniel is doing to her right now. I won't let her suffer there a moment longer." He paused and pursed his lips. "Not when she's pregnant."

Over to the side of the room, Rob spit out his coffee loudly and looked at Jonathan, bewildered. "Beg pardon? She's what?!"

Angela glanced over to Rob and nodded to the mess he made, "Sorry you're out of the loop. Better clear that up before it stains."

Jonathan shifted uncomfortably, not wanting to waste another moment and looked at Angela. "If you send others in there, they will wind up dead. I am the only one who can do this. I will have to skip incarcerating Daniel for the time being so we can get Kate home."

"Fine. Pack your things-" Angela began to speak but then frowned, rushing over to the window. "Christ!! Come here you two!! Get a look at this!"

Rob and Pine rushed over to the window, seeing billowing black clouds of smoke too close for comfort.

Sensing something wrong, Angela backed up and grabbed her bag and computer. "We need to leave now. COME ON!!" She swung the door open, ushering the two men out. Just as she did so, a bullet shattered the glass of the window and missed Jonathan by inches. "Change of plans, Pine. You're gonna have to wait a bit before you go-"

"ANGELA!!" Jonathan stopped midway down the stairs. "I won't wait any longer! She needs me!!" He shouted.

The director rolled her eyes and pulled the love sick man down the stairs and to the emergency exit. "Not when you've got hitmen after your head!! We need to take care of that problem first. Not only is it putting you in danger, but it is putting Rob and I in danger too." She shook her head and yanked Jonathan's hood up as they got outside. "Don't think I'm not worried about Katie. I am terrified for the poor woman. I want nothing more than to bring her back, but we have local issues first and until that is taken care of… She will have to wait for us."

Pine hated this. He absolutely abhorred the fact Katie would have to wait longer. But since he did have people after him, he had to find a way to safely get that situation taken care of. "Fine, but as soon as I am in the clear I am going to get Kate. I will not have her wait for me any longer than she has to."

---------------------

Daniel sat in front of the fireplace in the giant lounge room, staring into the flames. While he was sexually satisfied for now, there was just one other itch he had to scratch. This thought had been lingering in the back of his mind for quite some time now. There was a loud knocking at the door, taking him out of his thoughts. "Come in."

Roper closed the door shut behind him and walked over to Daniel, taking a seat opposite him. "You wanted to talk?" Richard spoke, unamused.

"Yes and no." The crime lord answered, standing up. "Come. Walk with me in the gardens, I have important news to discuss with you." He waved his hand and led the way. The walk to the gardens was eerily silent, neither men attempting to even try small talk. "You see these flowers?" He gently touches a dead plant. "Nightshade they are called. Rather beautiful, but also a flower that symbolizes… deception." Daniel placed his hands behind his back, narrowing his eyes.

Roper scoffed, "Have we come to have a needless discussion about plants? Or do you have something else you'd like to tell me?" He reached into his suit coat pocket.

"Go ahead and pull out the gun, Roper. I know what you've been trying to do." Daniel raised his thick eyebrows. He watched as Richard did so and smiled, "Now, before you try to kill me I'd like to have my final speech first. I knew what I was getting into the moment I had you back in the spotlight. I knew that you were up to something because you were very adamant to form an alliance with me…" he took a step forward, holding one hand up as he was not done. "This is my home, Roper. I can prolong my inevitable death for as long as I please. Do you see those men, up on the roof?" He nodded to the snipers. "The minute you pull the trigger, they too will fire on you without hesitation."

Richard smirked and adjusted his grip on his gun. "Smart man, leading me out here under suspicion. I knew that my little game wouldn't last too much longer. Here I thought you were just an angry man child, but it seems you do have some intelligence beneath that thick skull of yours." He aimed his gun. "Now are you going to finish your villain monologue or what? You should know I also have back up. The guards walking around in the gardens are not yours."

Daniel nodded and stepped closer to Roper. "You should know that we never form alliances. That was my first clue that you had something else planned. My second clue was my now dead sister's hesitation to answer my questions about you. Thirdly… The cell phone signal we got from my room just an hour ago." He placed a hand on Roper's shoulder and gave a fake smile, "You will do well in the underworld."

Before Roper could do anything, he felt a searing pain in his abdomen followed by 3 more stings. He dropped his gun, looking down with wide eyes as blood began to stain his clothes. Daniel had stabbed him.

"The era of Richard Roper ends by my hand. See you in hell." Daniel stabbed the man once more before shoving him to the ground and watching him bleed out. The leader of Belladonna watched the life leave Roper's eyes and smiled wickedly. He glanced up and saw Katie watching from the window, a hand over her mouth and running away from it as soon as she made eye contact. Daniel growled, ordering his men to kill Ropers and get the corpses out as he stomped towards the castle.

-----------

Katie slid down the wall, a hand over her chest and fear coursing through her body. She just witnessed Daniel murder Roper. "Jonathan please hurry." She cried softly, pulling her knees to her chest and praying that her beloved would come soon.
