I drive like a bat out of hell to get to her apartment and thank God I wasn’t stopped on the way here. I think I would have lost it.

I’ve barely made it through her front door when a punch to the jaw catches me off guard and then I’m being body slammed onto the floor. I look up to see an angry expression on Hunter’s face as he punches me again.

“What the fuck, asshole? What the fuck have you been doing to my sister when I wasn’t here?” he asks as he cocks his hand back, ready to deliver another punch.

I twist around and he goes crashing to the ground. I hold him down but don’t hit him back. I obviously deserve those punches for being the asshole I’ve been to her.

“Listen! Look, things aren’t the way they seem. Just hear me out, okay?” I plead and it takes him a minute before he nods his head. I let go of him and he raises into a sitting position before clocking me in the face again. “Fucking hell, Hunt!” I groan out.

“Now I’m ready to listen. You have one minute before I deck your ass again, pretty boy. If I don’t like what the fuck you’re saying, then I know how to fucking hide your body without ever getting caught,” he growls at me. I roll my eyes at him as we both get up from the floor.

“Look, none of that shit is real. It’s fake, though she doesn’t know that. I deleted it ages ago, but it looks like somehow someone got a copy of it. I need to find her and make sure she’s fine.”

“Well, she’s not here,” he says, giving me a blank look.

“Man, I know you know where the fuck she is!” I snap at him.

“Why the fuck should I tell you where the hell she is?”

“Because I love her, and I want to make it up to her. The last few months have been shit. I admit I’ve also done some dumb shit because I saw her cheating on me, but after she tried to kill herself, man, I’ve vowed to just forget all that shit and make it up to her,” I tell him honestly.

“And what if she doesn’t forgive you?”

“I don’t give a fuck! She’s mine and she’s stuck with me whether she wants to be or not,” I snap at him. Everything he’s saying is bullshit.

“I could take her away, hide her and you’d never be able to find her. What would you do then?” he asks cockily, and I want to punch him right in his face.

“I’d burn the fucking world down to find her and make her see how sorry I am! And I don’t give a fuck if I have to kill you to get my way either. Nothing is going to stand in my way of proving to her all over again what she means to me.” I growl at him, filled with anger at the thought of never seeing her face and loving her again.

“Motherfucker, this is your last chance. Your little outburst touched me. If you ever fucking hurt her again after this, I’ll hide her so well you’ll never be able to fucking find her again and that’s a promise. The only reason I’m considering helping you find her right now is because I’ve seen what an overbearing caveman you were after her kidnapping and how you’ve been stuck to her like glue since. That’s the only thing you’ve got going for you right now so don’t mess this up. I don’t know how she’ll react because my sister is quite the firecracker when she wants to be,” he finishes, and I guess I can’t blame him for being protective of his sister. Too bad I’m one determined motherfucker, and she’s mine!

“Just fucking find her, dickhead! We’re wasting time!” I practically yell at him.

He walks into his room and then comes out with his laptop. He takes a seat on one of the chairs in the living room before opening his laptop and doing whatever it is he’s doing. I pace the room, waiting for him to find her.

“It looks like she’s somewhere over Arizona right now,” he says.

“What?”

“She’s on a plane. If I had to guess where she’s going, I’d say—”

“London!” I say cutting him off. “I have to go, now. Are you coming?” I ask.

“Obviously. Who else is going to kick your fucking ass if you say one wrong thing to her?” he asks, and I roll my eyes at him.

“Let’s fucking go then, asshole,” I grumble.
