Harlow walked around the house, it was quiet for once. Jax took the kids for the day so Harlow could get caught up on housework and laundry. Everyone fell into a routine over the last three months and both Harlow and Jax were getting more then enough sleep now that Veda started sleeping through the night. Harlow heard the front door open and close while she was in the laundry room folding Jax's clothes from the run he returned from this morning. As Harlow came out of the laundry room she was met with a gun with a silencer attached to it

"Make one move and i will shoot your face off" the female voice said

"Tara, i suggest you take off" Harlow said looking down the barrel into Tara's eyes

"You took him from me" Tara said

"No, I didn't Jax is an adult he made his own choice" Harlow said

"He is mine, Harley he always has been and then you had to come into his life and screw it all up" Tara said

"Listen. I understand what you are going through but Jax is going to be walking through that door any minute with our kids and he isnt going to be happy when he sees a gun being pointed in my face, and I'm not sure that you want a bullet in that pretty little head of yours" Harlow said

"I DONT CARE!!!" Tara screamed her hand shaking as she pushed the silencer to Harlow's forehead

"You want to shoot me then do it, im not afraid to die Tara" Harlow said

"How could you not be afraid to die? What about your kids?" Tara asked

"My kids will be just fine without me, they have my husband" Harlow said truth was she's scared, Tara looked strung out and tired

"Jax doesn't deserve you. You don't belong with him I do, having his kids" Tara said

"This is what happens when you are in love Tara. Put the gun down" Harlow said

Tara lowered the gun for a moment when she thought she heard something outside turning to look out the window

Harlow quickly moved to the butcher block placed on the counter, pulled out a steak knife and stabbed Tara in the side

"YOU BITCH!" Tara yelled as she tried to lift the gun but the pain was too extreme. dropping the gun Tara tackled Harlow onto the floor. both of them trying to hit each other. Harlow got the upper hand for a moment when she punched Tara in the side that was bleeding, straddling Tara. Harlow grabbed her by the hair and bashed Tara's head into the linolieum floor until she heard a gun shot. Harlow looked up and looked around as her stomach started burning

Looking down Harlow watched as the crimson red blood seeped through her white shirt

"Bye Bye sweetie. I will make sure your kids are taken care of for you" Tara said standing up and walking out of the house while Harlow clutched her stomach trying to remember where she put her phone

Jax walked into the house after a long day with the kids who begged to go to grandmas house. Jax dropped them all off and headed home for a bit to see Harlow and take her on a bike ride. And to have some alone time

"Babe?" Jax said as he hung his kutte up on the hook by the door, hearing a small sound coming from the kitchen Jax walked in and couldn't beleive what he saw. Harlow was laying on the floor bleeding from her stomach he slowly walked over toward Harlow not sure if she was still breathing or not, tears streaming down his face as he dropped to his knees and touched Harlow's face.

Jax stumbled back as Harlow opened her eyes

"Babe, what happened" Jax asked as he ran his hand over her cool face

"Im losing alot of blood babe you gotta get me to the hospital" Harlow cried

Jax lifted Harlow up as she cried out in pain, carrying her out to her truck. Placing her in the backseat as he tore out of the driveway towards St Thomas.

Jax was pretty sure he heard her mumble who did this to her but at that point he wasnt caring who did this. Once they were in the emergency department the doctors immediately rushed her to surgery to stop the bleeding

Jax sat and waited, and waited it had been three hours since he heard anything from any of the doctors. Happy was out scanning the area to see if there was any trace of who did this. Jax was pretty sure that he cried all the tears his eyes had to offer, his body felt numb at the thought that he could possibly lose his wife. The only woman he ever truly loved. Jax may have loved Tara but it was never true love with her, the kind of love that makes you go crazy if you cant spend every waking moment with the person. And that was what he felt with Harlow, and the thought of losing that person was terrifying to Jax.

Jax looked up as the doctor walked toward him

"Mr. Teller. Harley is in critical condition. Her gun shot wound hit a few major organs. It is a miracle that she is even alive Jax" She said

"She's going to be okay, thank you" Jax said running his hands over his face

"Eventually Jax, its going to take her a long time to heal, and when she does that is a recovery in itself. This is the second shooting she has been involved in. With her history with pain medication I would seriously be concerned" She said

Jax didn't want to admit that his wife had abused pain medication in the past but the thought of her going back to them made him nervous. After the doctor told him that it would still be a while before he could see her, he chose to make a few calls, the most important one to Happy

"Jax, i think Harlow needs to get out of Charming for a bit" Happy said

Jax shook his head no "No, i can't protect her if she is gone. Not gonna happen man"

Happy looked around, they were sitting outside of the hospital on the side of the curb "I think this is the best choice, for Harlow and the kids. Get them out of harms way Jax, you cant be there all the time to protect them"

"Hap, I will make sure there is someone there all the time with her, i cant ship her off she will hate me" Jax said lighting a cigarette

"She will get over it. you fucked around on her and she still forgave you. she will this time too" Happy said

"I dont like the idea of her being so far away, i dont like that my kids will be so far away. She is going to need me" Jax said

"She will be with my mom, my mom can help with the kids and make sure she stays off the pills" Happy said

"I'm not sending her there, Christ Hap we had guns stolen right from the driveway what makes me thing my wife is going to be safe there?" Jax asked

"I will talk to Harlow myself. I won't give her the option to stay" Happy said

"Your acting like we arent even married Happy this is a decision that needs to be made between Harlow and I." Jax said watching Happy stand up

"Right now she is my daughter and i will make the right decision for her" Happy said walking back into the hospital

Uh oh.
