Chapter Seven.

Alison had been thinking about this for the past two weeks since her father left. She was a little nervous asking the man she had grown to love this question. She had ordered out Chinese food for their movie night at her apartment. She waited for him to come. When there was a knock at the door she went and answered it. She smiled at Bill. "Hey." She said, before he kissed her passionately before he walked in.
They ate dinner and watched one of two movies. It was after the first movie was over, Alison looked over at William. "Bill, honey, I want to ask you something."
Bill turned towards her and gave her his full undivided attention. "Sure sweet thing. What is it?"
She took hold of his hands. "I was wondering. I thought maybe, you'd like to move in here with me."
“Move in with you? Whew, I was almost expecting something a bit more serious like you are pregnant, Alison,” William said, pretending to wipe his brow off. “But the answer is yes, I would love to move in with you.”
Alison laughed as she knew that was almost impossible as she was on the pill and he wore a condom that night. “I was on the pill and you wore a condom so it is hard to get me pregnant,”
William knew that he didn’t tell her that the condom had broke when he checked it after they had made love that night, but if she was on the pill, the egg if it did come down would be invalid to his seeds. He smiled and not tell her anything about the condom breaking but that would not be good as he had her trust and to not say anything about it would be bad. “Alison, I have to admit something to you.”
“What is it?” asked Alison. She was concern, the look in his eyes said something was very wrong.
“When we made love . . . on the night of . . . your birthday, I didn’t tell you because I didn’t want you to worry, but the condom . . . it broke.” William said. “I should have said something but I didn’t want to spoil our night together.”
Alison looked shocked at him. “Don’t worry, you told me now. Its okay,”
William looked relieved as he looked at her. “I was mainly worried that you would throw me out,”
“Throw you out, no, you told me which is by far more then he would have done, William. So when shall we move some of your clothings here?” Alison asked.
“Are you sure you still want me to move in with you?”
“Of course I do!” Alison replied.
"Well I do have tomorrow off. Maybe we should do it then." Bill suggested. "Flint's due back the next day so it might be best to do it before he gets back."
"I'm on duty tomorrow. But maybe if I call and talk to Hawk he'll let me off for the day. I'm sure Scarlett will switch with me." Jaye said.
"But she works the next day. Are you sure you want to be there when he gets back?" Bill looked worried.
"I'm not going to worry about him. I'm not going to rearrange my life around him anymore." Jaye said as she picked up her cell and dialed Hawk's number.
William watched as Jaye talked with Hawk about getting off duty and finally she hung up the phone and smiled. “So what was his response?”
“I got the day off to help you move in here,” Jaye replied. “And he told me that Flint’s flight has been delayed getting off the ground in Brazil because of a thunderstorm, so he will be getting back here in two days from now and not tomorrow like it was scheduled to be.”
“Bet that pissed Flint off?” William replied.
“Oh he hates when things are not on his schedule or that when he wants to get somewhere and nothing is going his way, he hates it very much.” Alison said. “This will piss him off greatly.”
“Yes and when he gets here, he’ll take note of your new vehicle and drool over it as did most of the guys when they first saw it.” William said.
“And he’ll probably wonder who bought it for me too,” Alison replied, smiling as they sat on the couch together.
“And he’ll probably ask you about the ring that Duke gave to you too.”
“And I’ll tell him what I did with it too. Gave it to a pawn shop since it didn’t mean anything to me and it was a fake diamond ring too,”
“Oh that will piss him off that you gave it away, he probably thought that you would be so surprised by it that you would say yes to it. He probably is planning the wedding right now on the plane, not even aware that you had said no way, and sold the ring to a pawn shop.”
“Who gives a fuck about him? I sure don’t. He doesn’t deserve me anyways. He never treated me like I was special to him at all. The only two men in my life who ever treated me right was my dad and you, William, you treat me like I was the most special filly you have ever dated and I love that about you. You make me feel like I am wanted and loved,” Alison said.
“You are the only filly that I have ever really wanted in my life, Alison. I want you to feel special because you are special to me.” William replied, as he kissed her lips.
Soon, he lifted her up off the couch and carried her into the bedroom where they made hot passionate love all night long.
~~~~~~~
The next day, everyone on the base knew that Wild Bill and Lady Jaye were very; very serious indeed as Alison had asked Wild Bill to move in with her. As they watched them pack Alison’s new truck up with a few things from Wild Bill’s quarters, not much just about three boxes, most of the people on the base were now wagering when Flint hears about this, which he is going to go after Lady Jaye or Wild Bill. Most people knew of Flint’s love of Alison and knew that when he learns about this, Jaye was going to have trouble with him. Many people informed Duke and Hawk about the possible trouble coming for Jaye and Bill when Flint returns.
Duke and Hawk knew the minute, Flint arrives on the base, they were going to get him in his office and start getting the report done so they can call the mission done and over with and hand it in. They will state that his first copy was not worthy of being submitted to the higher ups and have him do it over again so he would have more time in his office so he can’t bother Lady Jaye.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Jaye pulled out a picture from one of Bill's boxes and was shocked to see that it was of her. "Where did you get this?"
“Well, remember when the team went to the beach and I had my camera out. You and Shana were posing though neither of you two knew it at the time and I saw the two most beautiful women on the base and I snapped the photo of you both. I took two photos of both of you women; I kept that one and gave one to Duke. He loved it and I loved what I saw and I kept it. I hope you don’t mind me doing that.” William said.
“I didn’t know you were a great photographer.” Alison replied.
“Uh shucks ma’am, after all I am a cowboy, while on horseback, you get a good look at landscapes and most of the time before I ‘came a Joe, and I took photographs of my grandpa’s lands with his cattle on it.” William said, as he pulled out a picture album and opened it up to show her the cattle that he took and the other landscapes he did on horseback and on tripod.
“Wow, they look great. I can see how beautiful the place is. How much land do you have there?” Alison asked.
“About three thousand acres, it borders State land but we don’t mind, it just gives us a safe location to put our cattle close to or close to the farm when hunting season comes along,. Some hunters like to get drunk and shoot at anything that moves, we lose a few cattle from them and never know who did it, so we keep them either close to State park or close to the ranch,” Bill said.
“I thought you were middle class, not a wealthy cattle baron, Bill.” Alison stated.
“Not wealthy, just middle class cattle owners. With the prices of beef going down, it will take years for us to really recoup any money, as the vet bills range in the three thousand dollars for each visit out to the farm to give the shots to the new calves and then check for the cows to be pregnant. That’s nine thousand dollars right there. That’s half of what our whole herd costs when we go to market if we’re lucky. Most of the time the auctions don’t give us the reserve price we put on them and we have to bring them back to the farm to try again later on and lower their price and sell them that way, we get at least nine grand for our trouble and give it all to the vet who is very kind in waiting for payment from us as he knows we pay when we get the money from selling them,” Bill replied, as he sat there looking at her.
“Have you thought about selling some of your land?” Alison asked.
“Yes, but not many people want the back property as we had offered it at a very good price since it is really good property but the people who we took out to show the property to, didn’t like the fact that it was once cattle range. We figured people would love to get away from the hustle of the big towns but when they saw how far it was to the nearest town and it was a small town, they didn’t want anything to do with the property, so we kept the land,” Bill replied. “But with the costs of living skyrocketing and our paychecks remaining the same as always, you have to tighten your belt and buying property is not what people will be buying – food and gas is what is bought the most of. The bills are paid first if you have enough money for food and gas, that’s what you get next, after that is for any medical problems that comes up. Even funerals run up to at least six thousand dollars or more and if you have life insurance that helps cut the costs of that. God save the family who doesn’t have that and a loved one dies, they be in a heap of hurt, unless the funeral home is kind to them and let them pay monthly or give them a discounted price to help them.”
Jaye looked at him. "I'm sorry. I guess I've never thought of it."
“Not many people would think of getting life insurance, I have it for myself as well as health. I know most of the people on the base have health insurance, but not life.” Bill said. “I know the cost of a funeral when my grandmother died, it was three thousand dollars, money that we didn’t have if she didn’t have life insurance, that day was the day I got it for myself.”
“So I should get life insurance as well?” Alison asked.
“Yes, to save your family grief when you pass on,” Bill said.
"Well it wouldn't really put them out." Jaye said. "But I'll get it."
They finished unpacking him and their home was a nice mixture of both of them. They knew that they had the day off but they decided to head back to base to get work done even though it was being covered by someone else.
~~~~~~~~~
Duke took notice of Jaye and Bill coming in from the garage together holding hands. He smiled as he approached the pair. “I thought you two had the day off to unpack?”
Wild Bill smiled. “Well, we got done early and decided to come back and do some work here at base,”
“Okay, just be aware that Flint is back, even though he’s in his office doing a second report for us, we’ve called the first one not worthy of showing the top brass the information. He’ll be busy for a few more hours.” Duke informed them.
“That’s good.” Jaye replied.
“So did he ask about the ring he wanted you to give to Jaye?” asked Wild Bill.
“Yes, and I told him she sold it and bought gas with it. He wanted to go find you, right then and there to ask you why you sold the engagement ring that he gave to you,” Duke replied.
“As if I would marry that asshole, I could have easily have given it back to him and told him to shove it where the sun doesn’t shine, and that the answer will always be no to him,” Jaye stated. She was not pleased with Flint’s attempt at winning her back by asking her to marry him.
Wild Bill smiled and squeezed her hand as he looked at Jaye and then to Duke who was wearing a wedding band on his finger, he remembered Conrad and Shana’s wedding, which they got Lifeline’s dad to come to the base two weeks after Valentine’s Day and married both of them in front of their friends and family. Duke was shocked when Shana told him to either take her to Vegas that night or get a priest there within two weeks as she didn’t want to wait to get married to him. “So how did he take to you getting married without him present?”
“Heck, he was overjoyed to say the least, I think he probably is going to assume that why you aren’t at the base very often Jaye is that you are preparing his and your wedding,” Duke said.
“Oh, he’ll be not so thrilled when he learns that there will be no wedding for him with me, Duke.” Lady Jaye stated. “One day, there will be one for William and myself as I do see us getting married.”
Wild Bill turned to look at Lady Jaye. He never assumed that they would get married; he knew she was serious about him but he never broached marriage plans with her before. Heck, he knew she must be serious about him and he liked that in a filly as she was taking charge in her relationship. “Alison, are you asking me or are you just projecting what future we might have together?”
“I believe we do have a future together, William, it might not be done in a year or so but I do see us getting married one day, that is if you are still interested in me down the line,” Lady Jaye said.
“Alison, only thing that will take me away from you is death, I’m here to stay,” Wild Bill said, kissing her on the lips and holding her close to him.
Duke smiled, as he knew they would get married one day in the near future, now hopefully, Flint will leave them alone. He turned to look at the building to see a shadowed form in the door frame and he knew who it was – Flint, and then the shadow turned and left. He knew Flint would now become a pest to Wild Bill trying to chase him off from Lady Jaye and if that didn’t work, he would go after Lady Jaye.
"I'm going to go finish that report I've been working on for Hawk. I'll see you when I'm done honey." Jaye said looking at the love of her life.
Wild Bill smiled and gave her a kiss before heading off to check his vehicle.
Meanwhile, Lady Jaye walked to her office, opened her door and walked inside only to stop in her step when she saw Flint sitting in the chair glaring at her. “Get out of this office, Flint.” She stated, walking to her desk.
“Why are you seeing that cowboy, when you are engaged to me?” Flint growled off.
“Engaged to you? Yeah, in your fucking dreams, Flint, you never proposed marriage to me and I didn’t accept your proposal, even if you did. I would have rejected it as you are no longer my boyfriend!” Lady Jaye snapped.
He rushed to her and slammed her hard against the cabinets. “You are my woman, Jaye! Mine! You accepted my ring, thus you are my woman!” He growled off bashing her over and over against the cabinet.
“I am not your woman not now, not ever again! You lost me when you fucked that Angela bitch!” Jaye snapped, breaking free of his grasp and punched him hard in the jaw.
“You’re the fucking slut, you fucking whore!” Flint went crazy, he started to hit her, punching her stomach and when she collapsed to the ground he proceeded to kick her violently in the stomach and hit her face with his boot breaking her nose. With one final hard kick to her stomach, he stormed out of there, leaving Lady Jaye bloodied and beaten.
~~~~~~~~~~~
It was about ten minutes later; Duke walked to Jaye’s door and knocked on her door. When he heard moans, he opened the door to see a room in shambles. He rushed towards the desk to find Lady Jaye bloodied and bruised. He checked for a pulse and stood up, grabbed her phone and dialed Lifeline to get a stretcher and a small medical team to Lady Jaye’s office, she’s hurt. Then, he dialed Mainframe ordering the last security tape leading to Lady Jaye’s office in Hawk’s office immediately. He knew who did it but he needed proof before he went to Hawk and demanding Flint’s dishonorable discharge from the ranks of the Joes.
Lifeline rushed to the office, he gasped in shock at the sight of her. He gave her a quick assessment before putting a neck brace on her and carefully putting her on a back board. They then lifted her onto the gurney where Lifeline started an IV as they put the gurney to full height. "Duke you better call Wild Bill. It'll sound better coming from you than for him to hear it from someone else."
Duke nodded and as he walked with them then, he called Wild Bill and informed him that Jaye was attacked and that someone had attacked her before he hung up.
It seemed like hours before Doc came out to see them both. He motioned for them to sit down. Once they did so did he. "Doc, please tell me." Wild Bill almost begged; his worry evident in his eyes.
"Well she has a bad concussion from being slammed repeatedly against something like a cabinet or a desk. I put ten stitches there. She has at least four broken ribs on her right side and one on her left, severe bruising of her chest and abdomen and a broken nose which I set as good as possible." Doc looked right at Wild Bill. “And she's pregnant. She'll have to rest so that the baby isn't lost." Doc informed him.
“What . . . did you say, Doc?” Wild Bill asked. He knew what he said but was it possible?
“Alison is pregnant, Wild Bill,” Doc replied. “She’s about three weeks along. Didn’t you know?”
A nurse came rushing into the room and whispered in his ear, Doc turned and rushed from the room, leaving both men sitting there stunned.
Duke looked at Wild Bill. “Are you going to ask her to marry you, Wild Bill?”
“Yes, I just didn’t figure that it was going to be this soon,” Wild Bill replied. “But do you know who attacked her?”
“I won’t know till I have a look at the hall cameras to see who did it.” Duke said.
“Why don’t you do that, so we can find who did it before they get off the base,” Wild Bill said. Duke nodded and got up. “I’ll let you know how she is, okay, Duke.” Duke smiled and hurried off.
It was about twenty minutes later, Doc walked into the room again. “Sorry about that, seems that the injuries that happened to her caused her to miscarry the fetus. I’m sorry, Wild Bill, but she’s not pregnant anymore.”
“I thought the fetus was okay?” Wild Bill asked.
“As did I but this can happen when the body is attacked. I’m sorry, I can let you go see Jaye right now, she’s resting and has no information that she was pregnant and lost the baby. I thought it would be your place to tell her about it,” Doc said.
Wild Bill nodded as he got up from his chair and followed Doc to Lady Jaye’s room.
~~~~~~~
Meanwhile, in Duke’s office, he was scanning over the video tape of Alison’s corridor to see Flint walking into her office and about two minutes later, Lady Jaye was seen walking into her office. It was about three minutes later, Flint walked out of the office holding his jaw wiping blood from his lip as he walked right towards the camera with a stern smirk on his face and then about ten minutes later, he saw himself walking into the room and then mere minutes later, Lifeline and the other medics arrived at her room. No other officer entered the hallway or her office. The only one who did was – Flint. Duke knew who had attacked Lady Jaye and it was Flint. That was grounds for a court-martial and the worst thing was that he did it against a fellow team mate. He knew Hawk would court-martial Flint in a heartbeat and demand along with the sentence once found guilty a dishonorable discharge, with all the evidence that Hawk has on Flint’s terroristic behavior, there wasn’t a military court who would find him innocent but guilty on all charges.
Duke called Hawk to come into his room, there was an attack on the base and he needs to come to his office right away.
Hawk stepped into Duke’s office somewhat perplexed by the call Duke did. “Okay, Duke, who got attacked?”
“Flint attacked Lady Jaye this afternoon,” Duke replied. “Look at this security film that was taped the time of the attack.”
Hawk watched it and was furious as he had seen Flint walking down the stairs as he was coming up them and asked him about his lip and Flint said he was teaching some new recruits how to fight hand to hand and one of them nailed him good. “That asshole! He lied to me about who hit him!”
“What sir?” Duke asked.
“I encountered him coming down the stairs when I was coming up them and I asked him about it and he said that it was a new recruit who nailed him there, I didn’t even know about him attacking Lady Jaye,” Hawk said, he picked up Duke’s phone and dialed a number. “I need you to come to Duke’s office with papers for a court-martial for one Dash Fairborn AKA Flint. I want to start the court-martial paper work on him immediately.” He hung up the phone. “As soon as that is filed, the arrest warrant will be pulled up and Law and Order can arrest Flint immediately.”
“Good, Jaye is pregnant by Wild Bill. He’s going to be asking her to marry him soon,” Duke informed Hawk.
Hawk shook his head. “I should have sent Flint on vacation right after he got back,”
“We didn’t know that Flint would do this to Jaye, sir.” Duke replied.
"The signs were all there." Hawk said shaking his head.
Duke was about to say something but he knew what Hawk said was true, there were warning signs all over the place. They just didn’t want to see the signs. They never assumed that Flint would go over the edge and actually hurt Lady Jaye ever. “I never thought in all of my life as a Joe, that Flint would do this to her.”
“I know, I should have made sure that he was on vacation after he got back,” Hawk said. “And now Lady Jaye paid for it and thankfully, not with her life as it could have happened,”
Duke nodded and they waited for his part time assistant to come so they could fill out the
paperwork.
~~~~~~~~~~
A nurse was in the room with Lady Jaye who looked like she had gotten into a brawl with a mauler and lost. Jaye's swollen black eyes were shut. She was hooked to an IV pump that was giving her a cocktail of pain meds. The nurse turned to see who was standing in the door to see Wild Bill looking at his love. "Doc will be taking her in for a DNC as soon as it is safe to put her completely under. Normally this is done while awake but with the amount of pain and injuries she has, putting her out will be safer and she won’t know what happened." She put her hand on his shoulder. "You can go see her, Wild Bill. She needs you right now."
Bill nodded as he went to Jaye’s side and took hold of her hand. “I’m going to make Flint pay for what he did to you and to our baby. He will wish that he never ever touched you. I promise you, baby girl, he will be thrown out of here for what he has done. He doesn’t deserve to be a Joe. I was going to wait till our third month anniversary of us dating to ask you this but I’ll ask you right now,” Wild Bill bent and kissed her forehead, and then he whispered something to her and placed a ring on her left hand and kissed her hand once more before he stepped back and headed for Duke’s office to give him the update on his girlfriend.
It took him about ten minutes to get to Duke’s office, he knocked and entered without carrying if Duke granted permission or not. He took note of Hawk, his assistant with Duke, after he entered the room. “Flint killed Jaye’s fetus.”
Hawk looked at him. “How far long was she?”
“About three weeks along, not much time but Flint killed the fetus that was growing within her.” Wild Bill said, as tears came flowing from the cowboy’s eyes. “Duke what will be happening to ‘him’ now, that he has finally snapped and attacked my girlfriend and caused her to lose her unborn baby?”
"We are signing the warrants now for his arrest. He will be court-martialed and tried for the crimes against Lady Jaye.” Duke's phone rang. "Duke...yeah...are you sure...damn it! Keep a look out in case he comes back."
“What?” asked Hawk, he was very worried now by how his second in command sounded on the phone.
“Flint left the base already. I had called down to the gate right after I called you to keep Flint inside the base. He conned them into thinking it was ok by me to leave the base and they let him go. When he returns, they will call me and I’ll have Law and Order with a few members of the MP there to arrest him for attempted murder and assault. He will not be very pleased with the arrest as you probably figure out that he’ll make it seem that it was Bill who attacked her,” Duke said.
Hawk nodded. “But with the video proof of who entered her office before she did and then after the attack with him walking out of there with a bloodied lip, he’ll have a hard time covering up his lie that he told to me that a rookie hit him there, he’ll be found guilty of the charges and he’ll be dishonorably discharged for sure.”
“Are you going to alert the Twins about this and have them come here and talk about how they felt with him coming to their office and his behavior there?” asked Wild Bill.
“Yes, I have a call out to them right now asking them to call me back as it concerns Flint and the harassment that he did to them. We are throwing the book at him and with their input of his harassment and stalking behavior, I’m sure that the judges will find in our favor and have him removed from the ranks,” Hawk replied.
“Good,” Bill and Duke both said at the same time.
Hawk’s assistant came into the room. “Hawk, sir, you have a call on line two, it’s the twins.”
"Thank you, Private Williams." Hawk said. "Duke, may I have your desk for a moment?" He asked as his assistant shut the door.
"Sure Hawk." Duke relinquished his desk and took the seat Hawk had just vacated. Hawk put it on speaker. "This is General Hawk."
The twins spoke, “So what has Flint done to cause you to throw the book at him?”
“He attacked Lady Jaye, this afternoon.” Hawk paused as the sound of ‘WHAT!’ came over the speakers. “She’s in serious condition. We will be arresting him as soon as he returns to the base and tomorrow, he’ll be court-martialed and we would like you both to come here to the base and give your testimony of his harassment and how he stalked you around town. The proof you gave me by letter isn’t enough to put him away even though we have proof that would put him away, your testimony would seal the coffin on his military career for good,” Hawk said.
The twins were furious by what had happened to Lady Jaye. “So he has crossed the line finally with your people.”
“Yes, everyone wants to seriously hurt him for what he has done to Jaye and what’s worse is that he killed her unborn baby,” Hawk stated.
They could tell it was Xamot who spoke, “She . . . was pregnant? Was it his . . . child?”
“No, Xamot. It was Wild Bill’s baby, she was carrying. Flint and Jaye broke up about two months ago, when she caught him cheating on her with another woman,” Duke said.
“Expect us there, tomorrow at 8am with our lawyers as we want our own attorney present as we may file civil charges against him after this is all said and done with. We will ruin him financially for all the harassment that he has done to our company and to us,” Tomax and Xamot both said together.
“Very well, we shall be expecting to see you tomorrow,” Hawk replied, as they hung up the phone. Hawk leaned back in Duke’s chair. “That was a lot more easier then I had assumed it would be,”
“What do you mean sir?” asked Duke, looking at him.
"I thought they would not want to come here." Hawk said.
"Sir, they were both in love with her." Wild Bill said looking out the window. "We've all see it."
Hawk was about to say something when Duke's assistant came running into the office without knocking. "Duke, Jaye is awake. The nurse slipped about the miscarriage and she's freaking out. Doc needs Wild Bill now!" The young Corporal said urgently.
Duke barely had a chance to say a word to Bill as the young Corporal was pushed out of the way as the cowboy made a mad dash down the hallway towards the medical center.
Hawk looked at Duke and said, “Call Flint up and tell him we have a mission, return to base immediately and then alert Law and Order that Flint will be returning to base shortly.”
“Yes sir with pleasure!” Duke smiled, as he picked up the phone and dialed a number that he knew by heart.
~~~~~~~~~
Wild Bill could hear the voice of the nurse in the hallway to Lifeline who was standing there not pleased with her. “I thought she knew she was pregnant! How did I know that she didn’t know?”
Bill stepped into view and walked sternly towards the nurse. “We do not need your services at this time in this location.” Wild Bill said, before opening the door and entering the room. He saw Doc holding Jaye as she was crying loudly swearing that she’ll kill Flint for this. “Doc,”
Doc felt Bill’s hand on his shoulder and pulled back as Bill took his place. “I’ll leave you two be. Now for that nurse,” he walked out of the room and into the hallway.
“I’m sorry, Alison, I’m sorry,” Bill said.
“I’m going to kill him for what he did, Flint killed our baby! Flint attacked me!” Jaye cried into his shoulder.
“He’s going to find out that what he did is grounds for a court-martial and a dishonorable discharge when he gets back to base. We have the twins coming to the base tomorrow for the hearing as we are not going to let him sit in jail for too long before the military court decides on his case,” Wild Bill said, holding her in his arms. “And I know about our child and I grieve for the loss of our little colt or filly.”
Jaye glanced at her hand and noticed something that was not there. She pulled back from him and looking at her hand. “Is this . . . ?”
“Yes, I was planning on something more romantic setting then this place, but when I found you were with foal, I have to push up my proposal by couple of months, but Miss Alison Burnett, will you . . . marry this cowboy who loves and honors the ground you walk upon?” asked Wild Bill, taking off his hat and kneeling before her.
Lifeline and Doc stood at the doorframe as Hawk and Duke came up behind them to see what was happening within the room. Lifeline put his hand up to his lips and motioned them to look within the room to see Wild Bill kneeling before a crying Lady Jaye.
“He’s proposing?” whispered Duke.
“Looks like it,” whispered Hawk. “I wonder what the answer will be,”
Jaye started crying again and found that she couldn't talk. She buried her face into his chest and sobbed so hard it caused her pain. She then looked up at him and painfully put her hand to his cheek. "Oh Bill . . . ." She said breathing a little labored from her broken ribs. "Are you sure you want all of this?" Bill simply nodded. "Then I would love to be your wife."
He took hold of her face and kissed her lips and with his free hand knowing that he had watchers, gave the thumbs up sign to them and they backed out of the room letting the door close behind them.
~~~~~~~
Flint drove back to base not even knowing that he’ll be arrested for the attack he did to Lady Jaye. He drove up to the base’s gate and showed them his ID card. He tapped the wheel knowing it would be a moment before the gate would be lifted and he’ll be allowed into the base. He didn’t take notice of Law and Order along with about two dozen MPs approaching his location till the gate lifted up and he drove into the surrounding MPs who all raised their guns at Flint.
Law and Order stepped up to Flint’s car with his gun by his leg and spoke, “Dashiell R. Faireborn, please turn off your car and step out of your car and relinquish your weapon to me?”
Flint was a bit shocked by the request but he turned off his car and stepped from the car. He pulled his piece and held it by the barrel to him. “Why am I handing my piece over to you for?”
“That information will be told to you now, Mr. Faireborn.” Law and Order said, as he handed the weapon over to another MP who stepped back. Flint took note of all the MPs raising their weapons at him. “Mr. Faireborn, you are hereby arrested for the attempted murder and assault of one Alison Burnett.”
“Attempted murder? What do you mean?” asked Flint, not realizing that his attack on Lady Jaye killed her unborn baby.
“Exactly what I meant, attempted murder and assault,” Law and Order replied, as he cuffed Flint. Law turned to one of the MPs. “Escort him to the cell and book him. There will be an attorney provided to him in the morning for his court-martial.”
Flint was hauled off stunned by what was happening to him and half way to the on base jail cells, he broke down and started to rant that he’s innocent of the charges and that it had to be her new boyfriend who did it!
Law and Order headed for Hawk’s office to inform him of Flint’s arrest and what was said by him. Needless to say, Hawk was not pleased that Flint was trying to put blame on his attack of Lady Jaye onto Bill, when the video evidence said otherwise and plus Jaye informed him that it was Flint who attacked her in her office, trying to get her to return to him and when she refused, he attacked her.
"I want guards on Lady Jaye. He will probably be released on bail in the morning after the court-martial." Hawk said.
The next chapter is next.
