"Not really. He knew I had connections, that my father was the right-hand man to Amar Berisha. Harry thought it was best to keep things in house, so to speak."

"I bet you're all regretting going up against us now, aren't you?" Makenna snarls. "So, here's how this is going to work," she says, smiling sweetly at her.

Ace's cell starts to ring, and he steps away to answer it.

"You're going to tell me where the fuck that asshole is, and if you don't, I'm going to have fifteen men at your front door, where your husband and children are, and they're not going to be as nice as I am."

I chuckle as the woman's face pales. "My children," she breathes.

"Are safe, as long as you tell me where the hell Harry Jacobson is."

"Do you know where she was taken?" Ace growls. "You've gotta give me somethin' more than that, May."

I turn to him, my brows knitting together. Who was taken?

"Send me the images you have. You and I both know we're not goin' to be able to keep him contained." He glances at me, and I see the anger and worry shining in his eyes.

My gut tightens and pain slices through my chest. I reach for my cell, my fingers moving over the screen as I hit dial on Esme's number. It rings out, so I continue to call, over and over again, but there's no fucking answer.

"Where is she?" I snap. "Ace, where the fuck is Esme?"

He shakes his head. "I dunno, brother, but we're goin' to find out. Seri got a call from the school. Esme didn't show up for work. Then May got a call from his friend in the police, who told him they found Esme's car. The door was open, and it had been abandoned."

Anger whips through me. "Do they have any idea where the fuck she is or who's taken her?"

Ace shakes his head. "There was a dark blue truck parked behind her in the security footage the cops pulled, but the plates are fake, and they have no more leads."

Fuck!

I can't fucking lose her. There's no fucking way that I'm losing her.

I spin on my heel and stalk toward the fucking bitch who's watching with wide eyes. I move around her desk and wrap my fingers around her throat. "Do you want to live?" I hiss.

She doesn't answer me. Her eyes are wide and filled with tears as she struggles against my hold, but she's not strong enough to hold me off. "Answer me," I yell. "Do you want to live?"

"Yes," she wheezes, trying to pull in some oxygen.

"Then where the fuck is she? Where is that cunt? I know he has her, so where the fuck is he?"

She pulls at my hand that's wrapped around her throat. "Can't," she wheezes. "Breathe."

My hand tightens even more, and her eyes widen as I cut off her oxygen supply. "Oh, bitch, I haven’t even fuckin' started yet. You have three seconds to tell me where the fuck they are, or I snap your fuckin' neck and then I'm goin' after your husband and kids."

"Please," she cries.

"Where are they?" I snap, ready to kill her if she doesn't answer me this time.

"Upstairs," she breathes.

I drop her to the floor, and she immediately reaches for her throat, sucking in much needed air. Her body shakes as she cries. I have no fucking sympathy for the bitch. None whatsoever. And I know that she's going to die. We were way too lenient with her and her fucking husband. That shit stops now.

I turn to Ace. He's got fury burning in his eyes. "That bitch comes with us. Get her keycard. She has access to every room in this building and I have no doubt she can get us upstairs."

"I'm making some calls," Makenna says, her gaze on the bitch who's lying on the floor. "I hope you said goodbye to your family when you left home today."

The bitch starts to cry. "No, please," she shrieks. "I'm sorry. Please don't hurt them."

I chuckle. I guess I wasn't the only one thinking about killing them. Makenna will ensure the husband dies and the children will be left alone. We don't fuck with kids. They'll be given to a family member or placed in the care of someone else. They'll live, they just won't have their parents.
