The Billionaire Bad Boy Club: A Bad Boy BDSM Holiday Romance
Page 94
By the time the plane touched down at Seattle’s busy airport, they were exhausted, sated. Isa lay in his arms, and he was alarmed by the tears that sprang up suddenly in her eyes.
‘What is it, sweetheart?’
She dashed away the tears with a hand. ‘Sorry. It’s just…the minute we step off this plane, others will be in our lives again. It won’t be just you and me anymore.’
He wanted to comfort her, wanted it more than anything but he couldn’t. He knew exactly what she meant, how she felt because he was feeling it too. Out there, out in the world, there were people who wanted to take her away from him. And he was terrified he wouldn’t know how to stop them.
Cal was chatting with Seb and Zoe when they got back to Zoe’s house. After the hugs and kisses of greeting, Zoe bore Isa off to the kitchen while Sam took Cal aside.
‘You went to the island?’
Sam nodded. ‘Sorry I didn’t tell you, but I wanted…’
‘Hey, dude, no harm, no foul. I think it was a good idea.’
Sam sighed. ‘What the fuck does Casey think she’s doing?’
Cal rolled his eyes. ‘Who knows? Wants to make trouble for you and Isa. What does Isa say about her?’
Sam rubbed his hands through his hair. ‘Not much. She keeps asking me if I know Casey.’
Cal went still. ‘You still haven’t told her?’
Sam shook his head, and Cal gaped at him. ‘Dude…what the hell? After all this time, the woman you love still doesn’t know you were married before?’
Sam was speechless, sat down heavily into a chair. ‘I know, Cal. I know.’
Cal chewed on his lip for a long moment. ‘Look…it’s not my place but…’
Zoe stuck her head into the room. ‘Sorry to interrupt boys. Sam, honey, I think Isa just wants to go to bed for tonight. She’s exhausted. Cal, why don’t you stay tonight and we can all talk about this in the morning.’
Cal looked at Sam, and they both nodded to Zoe.
In the kitchen, Sam could see Zoe was right; Isa looked as if she was about to fall asleep at the counter. He kissed her temple.
‘I’ll take the cases up then come get you.’
She murmured her agreement, and he grinned at Zoe. ‘Be right back.’
He climbed the stairs and unlocked the door, nudging it open with his shoulder.
The smell hit him immediately as well as the miasmic hum of flies. His heart started to pound, and he flipped on the lights.
The involuntary sound that roared from his mouth when he saw her sounded like the howl of a wounded animal.
The dead girl was tied to a chair in the middle of the living room, stripped to her underwear, soaked with her own blood.
The girl looked so much like Isa the message was obvious. This is what I’m going to do to her. For a moment Sam was frozen with horror, unable to take his eyes from the ragged stab wounds in the girl’s abdomen, the hilt of the murder weapon protruding from her ruined body, the blood, so much blood that covered the floor of the apartment. He was so frozen he was a second too late in turning, stepping in front of Isa as she burst through the door, having heard his shout. Too late. She saw the dead girl and Sam could see the shock, the terror, the horror in her eyes.
‘Oh my god….’ Her legs gave way and Sam caught her, yelling at Seb and Cal to help him. The two young men burst into the room; skidding to a halt when they saw the scene.
‘Jesus…’ Cal turned and threw up when he saw the girl’s body. Seb stood utterly still. His dark skin gray with shock.
‘She looks like my sister.’ His voice was so faint they hardly heard him. Isa buried her face in Sam’s chest as he curved his arms protectively around her. The stench of blood mingled with vomit now, and Sam jerked into action, dragging Isa back out of the door, yelling at the two men to follow him.
A shell-shocked Zoe called the emergency services and as they waited, a silence between them until Isa could stand it no longer and walked out into the night. Sam caught up with her as she stood, looking up at the open door of her apartment. He put his arm around her shoulders, could feel the tension in her body. She didn’t say anything, didn’t look at him.
‘Isa…’
‘I wonder what it will feel like.’
Sam shook his head, not understanding, and she turned to him, her eyes bottomless pits of sorrow and resignation.
‘When he does that to me. I wonder what it will feel like.’
He pulled her into his arms fiercely before making her look him in the eye. ‘I’ve told you this before, now listen to me. I will never, ever let him anywhere near you. You will never know what that,’ and he jerked his head towards the apartment and the dead girl, ‘feels like.’
‘Seconded.’ Cal came out of the house behind them and took her free hand. ‘Nothing’s gonna happen to you we don’t know about, sweet cheeks.’
Isa squeezed Cal’s hand, leaned into Sam. Sam kissed her temple, looked over the top of her head to his brother. ‘It’s time to shut this asshole down. I mean it, every resource we have, we’re going to use.’
Cal nodded. ‘Got it.’ He pulled his cell phone from his hip pocket and walked away from them to make a call. Sam’s arms tightened around Isa, as a police cruiser pulled up to the curb.
‘Honey…go tell Zoe and Seb to pack some things. You’re all going to the city.’ He pulled away and started towards the police offer stepping from his car. Isa stared after him.
‘Sam?’
He turned as she spoke. ‘For how long?’
Sam’s face hardened into sharp angles, his eyes haunted and angry. ‘For as long as it takes to make you safe again, my beautiful Isabel. As long as it takes…’
