London Coleman was mine.
Finally, Dante turned off the highway and we drove down a dirt track. Out the window, I saw a weatherbeaten sign for the Pointe Marina.
Dante stopped the SUV. “We need to get out here.” He looked back at us. “Once you drive around the bend, London, the marina yard will be visible.”
She nodded, her mouth pressed into a flat line.
Colt and Dante opened their doors and got out.
Fuck. It was so hard to leave her.
“Stay alive.” I pressed a hard, possessive kiss to her mouth.
Her amber gaze traced my face. “You owe me lunch, Fury.”
“Count on it.” I forced myself to get out of the vehicle.
I stood with my brothers as she slid into the driver’s seat. Then I watched her drive slowly down the road.
“I can’t lose her.”
Colt nodded. “That’s not going to happen.”
“We won’t let it,” Dante said.
I dragged in a deep breath. “Come on. Let’s get into position.”

LONDON
It was so damn hard to keep a lock on my fear. After I drove through the gate of the Pointe Marina, I stopped the SUV and got out. A strong wind whipped down the road, tugging at my hair. It was laden with the scent of water and vegetation.
I pulled in a slow breath. Lexxie needed me.
And I wasn’t alone.
I knew Kavner and his brothers were out there.
I slid my hand into my shirt and clutched the emerald dangling against my heart. It steadied me.
My boots crunched on the gravel road. There were several boats bobbing in slips on the water. There were also several on land, propped up on wooden blocks. The hulls were stained and looked like they needed repair.
Where are you, asshole?
I scanned around. In the distance, I saw a work shed by the water. Maybe whoever had Lexxie was in there?
I circled around a large fishing boat on blocks. It had a faded For Sale sign on it.
Then I stopped.
Lexxie. My heart broke into a wild gallop.
She was tied to a chair right on the water’s edge. Her head hung down, her chin resting on her chest.
My pulse skittered, then raced. Was she alive? God.
“Lexxie!” I broke into a jog.
