I felt the metal of the Jeep give as it moved, bunching up even more near where the windshield was supposed to be. The steering wheel and the dashboard that was trapping Chay's legs in place was moving with ease. I pulled it until it was much further away from where it had been in its original position.

Finally we would be able to get her out of there. We just needed to remove the belt holding her in place. Bailey had jumped down into the passenger seat and had already shredded the belt with his claws. He bent slowly over Chay then, putting one hand under her knees and another behind her shoulders.

He was moving as soft and gently as he could, but the movement still made her cry out in pain.

"AHHH!" She screamed in agony at just the slight shift forward that she had made when he scooped her up.

"CHAY?!" The four of us either cried, screamed or yelled her name in a panic. I even hear Toby and Morgan from near the road as they too called out for her.

"I-I-I'm OK." She huffed from the pain and the effort it took to speak at that moment.

"Like hell you are." I yelled. "You need to see Doc." I moved to where Kent and Reed had worked. "I am going to remove the door. We will take you out this way instead. It should be easier on your body."

I gripped the frame of the window, where all the glass had long since disappeared. 

"Bailey, hold her in place so she doesn't move around too much in the moment that I start to pull the door." I was giving orders like I knew exactly what I was doing. I just hoped they didn't find out that I didn't have a fucking clue what to do about this situation and I was just following my gut.

With that Bailey was getting ready and into position. Kent and Reed had gone to the other side of the car and gripped it as well. This was presumably to hold the car a little more steady in the coming seconds. I was proud of them for thinking about that.

Now everyone and everything was ready and it was time for me to free my sister. I pulled hard, and felt the metal begin to pull away from the frame, slowly. It had been so misshapen that it was hard to get it going for more than a few millimeters at a time.

Slowly, the metal started to shift more and more, giving way to my sheer force of strength and will. It only took a matter of seconds, definitely less than a minute, for the door to come off completely, but it had felt like a lot longer.

Trying as hard as I had to make it smooth and gentle, the pulling and shifting of the door had jostled Chay and caused her to cry and moan a few times in pain.

"Ahh! Ngh! Urrgh!" She was definitely hurting and I had made it worse.

"I'm sorry Chay." I whispered to her as I threw the door to the side.

Bailey was still in the passenger's seat and therefore was unable to pull Chay through the door at the time. So, as her protective big brother I took on that role myself. I lifted her as gently as I could in a hold similar to the one that Bailey had used. I bent my knees instead of leaning forward though, that way I could pull her straight out toward me instead of lifting her up to meet me.

While I was on my knees I was holding Chay in my arms and cradling her to me just like I had done when she was a little girl and I carried her to her room after she had fallen asleep somewhere that wasn't her bed. I was nostalgic for the past then, for times back when Chay was not mated and moving on with her life.

I stood then, slowly, moving straight up so that I didn't move my sister at all. Once I was standing I moved slowly back toward the road and to the truck that I had driven here. I had an emergency kit in the back that had a blanket and pillow so I told Toby to lay them out for me.

Once Toby had finished laying them out, creating a marginally softer place for Chay to lay, I laid her down as gently as I could. I knew that there was no way for me to do it without hurting her, but still, it broke my heart to hear her screaming in pain as I settled her down there.

"Bailey, go with her, when she is settled you can join us if you want, but I think you need to be with her for now. Have Ella and Sydney take care of the boys for us."

"OK." I could hear the tears in his voice as he looked at his mate laying there, writhing in pain. "Take care of my sister, or I will be one angry brother after I rescue my own mate."

"I will, don't worry." I saw that he was nodding his head as he climbed into the bed of the truck to kneel next to Chay's side. Ella was climbing into the driver seat then and Sydney was getting into the passenger seat.

"We will take care of things at the pack house. You go and find Star and kill that bastard." I heard a fierceness in Ella's voice then, something that I had never expected to hear from her. She was sweet and looked and sounded so innocent half of the time that this intensity threw me through a loop for a moment, but I just nodded and put it out of my mind.

"Don't worry, I will murder that fucking asshole for what he's done to my mate and my sister. He will know just where he went wrong when he had set his sights on what was mine."

With that, Ella set off for home, driving slowly and steadily so as not to hurt Chay. She was being considerate of her future sister in law. I couldn't stand and watch though. I had work I needed to get to."
