Chapter 20
Sammi
1:52 PM SATURDAY
I’m trying to be calm, but when you’re held at gunpoint, have a black bag thrown over your head, and stuffed into the back of a truck with no idea where you’re being taken, there’s just no way to be completely calm and composed.
Not to mention how this is all fucking Lock’s fault. I’m paying for something I’m pretty surehedid.
If I get out of this, I’m pulling his fucking scrotum up over his head and kicking him down a flight of stairs. How could he let this happen?
The truck stops, and I can hear people talking, but it’s in Thai.
A beam of sunlight hits my face through the hood over me as I hear the back door slide open.
I’m also hit with that familiar, nauseating humidity.
As much as being kidnapped sucks, the one perk was escaping from the overwhelming Bangkok heat. But I can kiss that goodbye as I’m getting pulled from the back of the truck by small, rough hands that no doubt belong to the Thai gangsters who have kidnapped us.
As I’m being marched, I hear the sound of the roaring waterfall. The sound of the water tickles something in the back of my mind.
I’ve been here before.
The bag is pulled from my head, and I have to squint my eyes to stop myself from being blinded by the sun’s intense rays.
As my eyes adjust to the light, everything comes into clarity.
We’re all lined up in a row, bounded and flanked by a handful of gangsters. Each one is carrying a UZI in their hands.
How fucking stereotypical can you get as a mobster? They’re each stone-faced, ready for orders to come through for them as needed.
Before us is this majestic waterfall that’s so eerily familiar, it gives me butterflies.
It’s a beautiful sight to see. The water is crashing down into a pool of water that looks as clear as a warm bath. It leads up to small sandy shore and—
Wait a second…are those wedding decorations?
“What the fuck is going on here?”
None of the prick gangsters answers me. Of course.
I look down the line to see that Percy, Becky, Mysti, and Liam all seem to be as confused as I am.
I was expecting that we were going to drive out to some field in the middle of nowhere or some abandoned shack to be shot in the head.
Instead, we’re standing before some truly beautiful and romantic scenery. Percy nudges me, and I see the Thai mob boss from before.
He points at our bounded hands and a couple of his people free us. I rub my wrists and look over the guy.
He’s dressed in a tuxedo—which does look good—and is looking in my direction with a shit-eating grin on his face.
Oh, fuck no. Now I get it. He walked in on me and Lock, and I squirted all over his face.
And now he wants to fucking marry me.
He doesn’t want me dead. He wants me ashisfucking wife.
“It brings joy to my heart to see you all again.” He sounds more like a used car salesman than a gangster. “And I am so pleased that you can be here today to join in on this most amazing moment.”
