Page 45 of Needing Shianne

Smelly Man grunted. "Who?"

"Neve. Says they have her."

Boss Man turned his yellowed gaze to her. "Your boyfriend a cop?"

"No." That was the truth. She didn't have to offer anything further.

"Why does he carry zip ties?"

Shianne's brows furrowed. "What?"

"Zip ties. You fucking heard me."

"I don't know. I didn't know he did."

"Are his friends cops?"

"No." Again, she wasn't lying.

He grunted and stood. He moved to the window near the front door. "What the fuck is going on here?"

Shianne cringed slightly, but inside, hope bloomed like it had never bloomed before. They were here to get her. Myles was here.

Smelly Man grunted. "What?"

"Fucking Neve is standing in the driveway. She's just standing there."

"She's fucked up."

"Shut up," Boss Man barked.

Boss Man turned his attention to her, and fear slid up her spine like a snake slithering across the floor. She shivered but didn't look him in the eye.

"Get up, Princess."

She scooted to the edge of the chair and stood. Her knees felt as though they'd buckle any moment, so she stood still.

Boss Man turned his attention to Smelly Man, who hadn't moved an inch off that sofa.

"Get up fat ass."

"I weigh less than you."

"Shut up."

Smelly Man scooted to the edge of the sofa like she'd just done, but it took a bit more rocking for him to finally stand.

Boss Man dipped his head toward her. "Take her outside, point a gun at her head, and get Neve back."

"Where the fuck is Doug when we need him?"

Boss Man turned and looked out the window again. His head turned slowly as he surveyed the area. Shianne closed her eyes. A gun at her head was not something she wanted to deal with. So far as kidnappings go, she'd only been roughed up minorly, no sexual assault, thank God, and no torture. But a gun at her head, that ramped things up a bit in a direction she didn't like.

Boss Man turned his head to Smelly Man. "Go on, get the fuck outside."

"Do you see anyone with a gun out there?"

Boss Man turned at him and in a high-pitched sneering voice he said, "No, I don't see anyone with a gun."
