Whoever did this knows who we are.

This wasn’t a random kidnapping.

This was planned. They knew who they were after.

The big question is why.

My mind trips back to my father.

Someone knows the truth.

Someone was watching and waiting.

Someone found out about Charly and knew I’d be with her tonight. They got her… but what happens when they realize I’m gone?

I choke on a sob and wiggle away from Blue Eyes.

“I need to get help.” I slam my hands against the window. “Stop the car.”

He tries to hold me still. My head aches so badly, even my teeth hurt.

“I can help you if you just relax, okay?”

“Can’t… relax.” My breaths turn into short, sharp gasps. “I’m next. They’re coming for me.”

“We can’t do much more for her.” The driver guy gives me the side-eye. “We should take her to the hospital. She can get help there.”

Blue Eyes only squeezes me harder. I collapse against his chest, sobs shuddering my body.

“We can take you home. Where do you live?”

But before I can answer, the driver scoffs. “Are you fucking kidding me? We can’t get mixed up in this. Bad enough we ran into a fucking sex den and stole a girl. We would have been in serious shit if we’d have gotten caught by those assholes.”

“We didn’t.” Blue Eyes jerks his head toward the driver. “And I’d have done it all over again if we could have saved anyone else. This girl has a chance because of us. Molly didn’t get that chance, remember?”

Molly.

Another girl taken.

My blood turns to ice. How many of them are lucky enough to make it out of that hell alive?

I bet I could count that number on one hand.

Maybe only one finger.

Is death a better option than enduring the torture of being caught if they escape?

“I’m sure she’s digging your knight in shining armor routine, but I’m not getting dragged any further into this shitstorm. We’re going to the hospital.”

Blue Eyes clenches his teeth but he doesn’t argue.

We sit silent for the entire ride to Sunnyside Medical Center. Palm trees whip past as we fly down I-95.

I never called Dima. And I’m sure he’s tracked me by now, freaking out that I haven’t answered my phone.

Has he told Dad? Have they gone to look for me?

Dima doesn’t know who I was with tonight.
