Chapter 99

Kade

Liam sent the video while we were still on the road back from Blackridge.

Abby watched it once.

Then again.

Imogen, sitting in the back seat, swore quietly.

I pulled onto the shoulder.

“No.”

Abby looked at me.

I hadn’t even said what I meant.

She knew.

“Kade.”

“No.”

“They have Sloane.”

“I know.”

“She helped me.”

“I know.”

“She may die.”

“I know.”

“Then stop saying no like that ends the conversation.”

The bond between us tightened.

Her fear.

My anger.

Both too strong.

Imogen leaned forward between the seats.

“Stop.”

Neither of us looked at her.

“Kade.”

“No.”

“Abby.”

“No.”

Imogen sighed.

“Excellent. Very mature.”

I turned.

“This is a trap.”

“Yes.”

“She wants Abby.”

“Yes.”

“So Abby does not go.”

Imogen looked at her.

Abby crossed her arms.
