“It’s Sophie. We tried to—he hit her and took her—I couldn’t. I’m sorry,” she gasps out while crying at me. Did she just say he took her? Who took her? Who am I going to hunt and kill tonight?

“Shh, Aoife, I need a little more, can you try to tell me a little more sweetheart.” Liam is trying to get more information.

“Sophie wanted to go check on something in the kitchen, so I went with her. We got to the kitchen, got the food sorted, erm, mmm. On the way back down the hall I saw blood. Sophie pushed me behind her, and that’s when he stepped out. Tall, big man, he looked a little crazy, but has the same eyes as Sophie. He came toward us, and Sophie swung her bag to hit him, but he was quick and grabbed her… She, erm, she stepped on his toe with her heel, but he put a knife to her throat. I was frozen. I was about to scream when he pointed a gun at me. Like he held the knife to her neck with one hand and the gun was in his other. Sophie told me to run back to the casino floor and get you. When I turn back, he was dragging her away. I couldn’t stop him, but she looked ready to fight. I ran out here and Liam caught me. I’m so sorry, Cahill. I didn’t do anything. I’m useless.” And my baby sister breaks. I cuddle her to me.

“This is not your fault. I will get her back. But I need you and Lauren to go home to Mam. Now.” I kiss her head and send her off to grab Lauren.

“I will sort them with a driver. I will be two minutes. Get the troops, boys.”

Liam shouts as he runs to the doors. Mr. Evans is beside me, when did he appear?

“Someone has my daughter. Where do you want, or need me?”

“I don’t think so, Harry. You need to go to Muff. I will deal with this. She is mine. I protect her now.”

Harry slips me a card and walks away. That was easy, but I have a feeling he will show up somewhere when I don’t want him. Where the fuck was Ruairi when this was going on? I will deal with him later.

“Men, I have the right to believe Jonathon has taken my woman. He is also Sophie’s half-brother. I have a few locations where he might have taken her, so we need to split up. You still in, Marco?”

“Yep, my men are ready. Where are we heading?”

I give Marco’s and my men their orders. I leave a few behind to make sure everything runs smoothly here. I don’t need the press on this.

Ruairi is beside me. “Let’s get the bastard!”
