They kissed her everywhere and she exhaled then opened her eyes as they cleaned her up and watched over her.
“I love you. All of you. No matter what you think right now or how angry you are, I love you so much.” she told them.
They smiled as they played with her body, ran their fingers over her breasts and her curves. They were all touching her. “I love you too,” Parker said.
“As do I,” Burker added then leaned down to kiss her shoulder. She smiled.
Lynch looked serious. “You have a lot to learn about commitment and being upfront with us. I love you though, and your recalcitrance is nothing a firm hand can’t fix,” he said and winked.
She swallowed hard. “I’m ready to learn.”
“I bet you are,” he said and gave her a wink. She looked at Tazer, who still seemed upset. “No more holding back. You get a gut feeling or you feel something isn’t right, you get to one of us or call us. I don’t care if it’s nothing, you tell us,” he scolded her. She nodded.
“And another thing, don’t beat around the bush about things. If you wanted to share your singing talent with us you should have even though we said we needed to work. We could have worked it out. At minimum we would have warned you about the investigation and Luther’s. Your lack of trusting us completely could have gotten you hurt or even killed. I’m sorry, but I’m not over that quite yet,” he said.
She sat up and knelt on her knees in front of him. She cupped his cheeks. “I’m sorry,” she whispered with tears in her eyes. She didn’t want him to be angry with her. She needed him to love her too.
He wrapped one arm around her waist and pulled her close. “You’ve got some making up to do,” he said, and she felt his finger trace over her ass then down the crack.
“Whatever you want,” she whispered and then kissed his lips, his jaw and then his neck.
He cupped her cheeks and stared down into her eyes. “I love you, baby.”
She smiled and then he lowered her to the bed, pressed between her legs and eased his cock right into her needy cunt.
“Arms up, and get ready, it’s going to take a whole lot of loving to get this bad feeling in my gut to go away.”
She smiled up at him and placed her hands above her head and lifted her breast toward him.
“Then it’s a good thing the runway show isn’t for another day, or I might not be able to walk it,” she teased.
The others chuckled and then Tazer lowered over her. “A wise ass huh?” he said and then eased his cock out and then thrust back into her, taking her breath away and binding their bodies and hearts once again with every stroke he made. She loved them and from now on, anything they wanted she would give them. They meant the world to her and nothing else mattered but their love and their safety. The Hayes men forever came first.
Chapter 9
Eliza Grace was so nervous before she took the first walk down the runway, but one look at her men as they stood in the crowd watching and she felt confident and sexy. By the time the moment came to showcase the final designers, she felt nervous about wearing the sexy dress and showing off her abundant breasts. Her men were not going to be happy about this one, but one of the models got sick last minute and only Eliza Grace could fit into the dress. Well, barely, the top was too tight on her bust but they made do and she walked out hearing the oohs and ahhs of the crowd.
She wouldn’t lock gazes with her men, afraid of their response to the dress, but then as she turned she saw them all standing there, arms crossed and the only one smiling was Burker who was licking his lips. He gave her a wink and she felt flush a moment and nearly tripped, but she made it back no problem and then exhaled as she got behind the curtain.
“You did it. Oh my God, that was sensational. Listen to the crowd cheer,” Ken said to her.
She smiled. “I can hardly breathe,” she said to him.
“One more step out to take a bow and then you can tear that sucker off,” he said to her and then kissed her cheek. She smiled.

“Are you sure?” Lynch asked as he spoke into the cell phone. It was Federal agent Mick Flours. He told Tazer that Si and his men left the country. They flew out on a private jet. But they had a location on Stolley and were going to check it out.
“We want in. Where can we meet you?” he asked as he looked at his brothers. “Okay, we’ll be there in twenty minutes,” he said then disconnected the call.
“That was Flours. Si and the other two guys believed to be the masterminds behind the prostitution ring left the country on a private jet. But, they believe to have a location on Stolley, the one who killed the two soldiers,” he told them.
“So we’re going too, right?” Lynch asked.
“Yes. Let’s see Eliza Grace and then head out.”
“We should stick around here then, in case you need help on the computers?” Burker asked him.
“Yes, definitely. This Stolley guy is slick. We know he is never in one place too long. We’ll need you guys to do your thing and help us keep track of him and where he might go.”
“What about Eliza Grace?” Parker asked.
“She has that meeting with the guy from the lingerie boutique in Charleston. Missy Ann is going with her and her boss Clarissa will be there too. We’ll have her text us when she finishes up and then you guys can go pick her up afterward. She’ll be fine. None of those people are connected to this,” Lynch said to them.
“Okay. Let’s go see her and tell her then head out.”
“Yeah and grab a hold of Finn and Salvatore. We may need their assistance. I want to get an update on the information we found at Luther’s bar and also the details on those other names that popped up on Luther’s phone.”
“Okay, we’ll get on that as soon as we leave here,” Parker told Tazer. They headed to the back to see Eliza Grace and had to get through security guards to get to her.
The moment she saw them she ran to them. She was wearing a pretty flair beige skirt and a matching tank top that accentuated her large breasts almost as much as the damn sexy dress she wore at the end of the show.
She threw herself into Tazer’s arms and kissed him deeply. When she released his lips he laughed. “What did you guys think?” she asked, sounding so excited. Burker moved in behind her and wrapped an arm around her waist. He kissed her neck as Tazer stepped back but held her hands in front of her.
“I think it was great but the last one.”
She squinted her eyes at him and turned in his arms as Tazer released her hands. “The last one? That was the number one dress of the show.”
Parker ran his hand along her arm and then kissed the top of her hand. “It showed off your breasts. Those are ours to enjoy,” he teased. She blushed and Burker chuckled.
“You looked incredible, baby,” Lynch told her and then he pulled her into his arms and kissed her.
Tazer smiled. “We have some business to take care of,” he said to her and she looked upset and serious. “Is it dangerous?” she asked and Tazer pulled her close and cupped her cheek. “We’ll be fine, just trying to find these assholes and wrap things up. You have the meeting with that guy and Clarissa from the boutique, now, right?” he asked her and she nodded.
“I don’t have to go. I can cancel if you want me to stay home. Missy Ann was going to be with me anyway,” she said and he thought about that a moment, but it wouldn’t be fair to her. This was an opportunity she was excited about and could land her a big gig with her career. They needed to accept her profession even if it made them feel more protective and jealous. “It will be fine. Go to the meeting, be smart and make sure you get everything you want,” he told her.
“Ask questions and if you’re not sure then ask for time to think about it and we’ll all discuss it tonight and help you decide,” Parker said to her and she smiled.
“Okay. Sounds like a plan. I won’t make any decisions without discussing it with you guys. This affects you too. I know how you feel about me modeling sexy
clothing.”
“Don’t make me think about that,” Burker said. “Text Parker and Burker as soon as you’re finished at the meeting. They’ll come get you and Missy Ann,” Lynch said to her. She smiled and then kissed each of them goodbye.
Tazer got that uneasy feeling in his stomach. “Be careful, okay?” she said with concern and he nodded then gently ran his finger along her cheek and chin. “You be ready for later.” He gave her a wink and she blushed. “Anything you want, remember that,” she whispered, making his cock harden in his pants. Thoughts of their love making flashed through their minds and how she handed over complete control to him and his brothers in the bedroom. He adored her more than anything in this entire world.
* * * *
Eliza Grace fixed her skirt and looked at Missy Ann. “How do I look?”
“Like a million bucks. Don’t worry, he already chose you amongst all the other models,” Missy Ann said and Eliza Grace smiled as she squeezed her friend’s hand. They walked to the business office and spoke with the man at the front desk. He directed them to the second floor and they headed up together. “I can go in with you if you want,” Missy Ann said to her.
She smiled at her best friend. “I need to go in alone. But I’m so glad that you’re here with me. I get very nervous when the guys aren’t with me, especially after the other night.”
“I’m surprised they let you come here with me.”
“I know, but they want to solve that case and I’m safe here. Clarissa and Mr. Divanni have nothing to do with the case. As soon as we’re done here, we’ll call Parker and Burker to let them know we’re on our way back.”
Missy Ann smiled. “Okay. Knock ‘em dead,” she said and then they got to the office and opened the door.
Eliza Grace saw two men sitting in the office reading magazines. A woman at the desk told Eliza Grace that they were waiting for her in the back room. She had this uneasy feeling in her gut as she looked back at the men and at Missy Ann. Before she went inside she whispered to Missy Ann.
“Take out your phone and be ready to text Parker. Just in case,” she said to her and Missy Ann looked scared. “I may be paranoid so just humor me,” she said and gave a soft smile. Missy Ann nodded and then took out her phone and kept it on her lap.
Eliza Grace met Mr. Divanni, who couldn’t seem to take his eyes off of her. It was rather annoying and she didn’t like the feeling she had. As Clarissa described the contractual agreement it seemed odd, and unclear.
“I don’t understand the contract. It doesn’t state anything about modeling lingerie but a lot of stipulations of responsibilities and upkeep of my body, my skin and even the food I eat. I’m confused,” she said and looked at him and then Clarissa.
“It’s a typical contract. All the girls sign them before they begin their training,” he said to her.
“Training?” she asked.
“Well yes, you’re going to need a lot of training in order to fulfill your owner’s desires.”
The words hit her gut like a hard kick. She stood up and the door opened. The moment she saw Si she gasped and reached for her purse. Clarissa knocked it from her hands. “I’m sorry, Eliza Grace, I tried to keep them at bay but you were just too appealing to all involved,” Clarissa said.
Eliza was in shock. “How could you do this? I trusted you. You set this all up? You’re part of the illegal prostitution ring?” she asked as she maneuvered around the meeting table. There was nowhere to run. She would have to get through Divanni on her left or Si on her right. Both men would be able to stop her. “Don’t fight it, Eliza Grace. You knew since the moment we met that there was something between us,” Si said, moving closer.
She shook her head. “No, nothing was between us. I don’t want anything to do with you.”
“Sure you do, because myself, Vic and Daville are the only men who will take interest in you after you’ve been fucking four men.” Her eyes widened. “Oh, by the way, two of them are already dead and the other two will die too if you don’t cooperate.”
“No. No. You’re lying,” she screamed at him.
He held her gaze. “Believe what you want. It won’t matter a few days from now and definitely not weeks from now. Vic has a way with discipline and Daville, well, he likes to use his fists and has a bit of a temper. I’m the calmest, so I suggest you cooperate.”
“No. I’m not going anywhere with you. Especially if you did kill my boyfriends,” she screamed as the tears filled her eyes. She tried not to cry and grabbed onto the table. They can’t be dead. They can’t be.
There was a knock at the door.
“Oh, you may want to think about your friend Missy Ann who was sitting out in the waiting room. Seems Mr. Divanni here has been kind enough to make a deal for a friend of his. I take you and his friend gets Missy Ann.”
She felt sick, angry and also responsible for Missy Ann. “No. Please don’t hurt her. Please leave her alone.”
“Then come with me now. I won’t have my men take out Parker and Burker at their house right now, and I won’t turn over Missy Ann to Divanni’s friend.”
The door opened and there was one of the men.
“We need to go,” the guy said and he was the one in the waiting room with Missy Ann.
Eliza Grace took a chance and ran for the door. Si stopped her, lifting her up off the ground. He slammed her onto the table and gripped her head. She couldn’t move with him on top of her.
“You will cooperate or she will die right here in this office. Do you understand me?” he said through clenched teeth. She could tell by his tone, his facial expression that he meant business. He would kill Missy Ann if she didn’t cooperate. The tears rolled down her cheeks. She nodded.
“Let’s go.” He pulled her up as if she weighed nothing at all and dragged her from the room. When she came into the main office Missy Ann was gone and her cell phone was on the floor, her bag still there.
“Where is she? What did you do with her?” she asked as Si pulled her out of the doorway and down the hall toward the stairs.
“She’s in safe keeping. Can’t have any cops following us,” he said and they got to the bottom of the stairs and to the back door. As soon as it opened she struck him and tried to run. He knocked her down and she hit the blacktop, scraping her knees and her elbows. She cried out but struggled to get free. Si struck her across the mouth and she fell back against the SUV.
“Your life here is over. They’re dead and now you’re mine.” He lifted her up and shoved her into the back seat. She felt the arms go around her waist and then she caught sight of Vic. She slammed her head back against his mouth and he cursed then twisted around and threw her onto her belly before he straddled her in the back seat. He tied her hands together behind her back as she cried out in pain and screamed that she hated them and she would never be theirs and she would never let them touch her.
She was crying and the pain in her ribs and stomach as Vic straddled her made her lose her breath. She felt his hands move up her skirt and she cried out through the gag. “You will be ours. You’ll learn to submit, even if it takes beating you down.”
He pressed against her to ease up into his seat. The SUV was already in motion with Daville behind the wheel. They kept her like that. On her stomach, her ass exposed to their eyes and their hands and she cried. She was going to be raped, beaten and used by these men and then they were going to kill her. They killed Lynch and Tazer and they could kill Burker, Parker and even Missy Ann. It was all her fault. All because she hadn’t trusted her men fully and told them about her fears and about Si and his buddies. She caused their deaths and she was responsible for Missy Ann suffering now too.
She cried as she lay there helpless. Her knees burning, her elbows and mouth sore and swollen. Where were they taking her? How would she survive? Why was this happening to her? Everything had been perfect, now her life was over.
* * * *
Just after they broke into the back room of the dive Lynch got the cal
l from Parker. They had Stolley in custody and he was smiling and leaning back in the chair as if he had nothing to fear.
“Say that again,” Lynch said into his phone. He grabbed onto Tazer. “What? What’s wrong?” Tazer asked and Finn came closer to them as the Feds took control of the situation.
“Eliza Grace and Missy Ann are gone. A call came through and we heard a scuffle and then silence. It went dead and it was from Missy Ann’s cell phone. We freaked out and headed to the place where Divanni was meeting them and Clarissa. No one is here, Tazer. There was a definite struggle. Missy Ann’s phone and purse are on the ground and blood is on the chair. In the back office in a meeting room we found Eliza Grace’s stuff on the floor.”
“Fuck. Did you get the surveillance tapes? Are the cops there?” Lynch asked and then he heard Stolley chuckle.
“There’s nothing,” Parker told him.
“Oh my God. It has to be Si. The son of a bitch wanted her from the start and he took Missy Ann too,” Lynch said.
Tazer turned toward Stolley. He ran to the table and grabbed him by his shirt collar. “Where did Si take them? Where did they take the two women?” he yelled and shook Stolley. Stolley continued to chuckle.
The Feds pulled Tazer away from Stolley. “You can’t do that,” Flours said to him.
“I sure as shit can. This isn’t over. Si and his buddies took our woman and her friend. I want answers. Who owned the private jet that you said took them out of the country?” he asked Flours.
“That wasn’t completely confirmed,” one of the other agents said. Flours shot him a look. “It may as well been,” Flours said.
“What? You mean you didn’t confirm that Si and Vic and Daville were on that private plane, you just assumed so?” Tazer yelled at Flours.
“They were more than likely on it. They did business with the owner of the jet.”
