Chapter 38. Kidnapped…Again

Amy and Lucas were marched across the parking lot toward a black SUV with heavily tinted windows. Two more men in suits opened the rear doors.

“Ladies first,” Scar-face sneered, shoving Amy forward.

“Touch her again and I’ll kill you,” Lucas growled, the threat so cold and certain that even the thug hesitated.

“Big words for a man in zip ties,” Baldy laughed.

They were forced into the backseat, the leather cool and buttery soft against Amy’s bare legs. The door slammed behind them. The bearded man slid into the passenger seat while Scar-face took the wheel.

“Where are you taking us?” Amy asked, her voice steadier than she felt.

No one answered.

Lucas shifted closer to Amy, his bound hands awkwardly seeking hers. When their fingers touched, she clung to him, drawing strength from the contact.

“I’m sorry,” he whispered, so quietly only she could hear. “I never wanted you involved in this.”

“Involved in what, exactly?” she whispered back.<
