Insatiable (Steel Brothers Saga 12) - Page 19

“What my sister means is that we don’t need the money. We’re very well off.”

“Why aren’t you sitting on a beach in the Caribbean, then?” I said. “Kidnapping has its drawbacks. Number one, it’s against the freaking law.”

“We have talents others don’t have.”

“You kicked my ass as a trainer, so there’s that. I suppose you’re pretty good at kidnapping. Did I get all your talents?”

Alex stalked toward me. “Dom, I swear—”

“Let it go, Alex. She just doesn’t understand yet.”

“Yeah? Then make me understand. Why are you doing this? By whose orders were Colin, my mother, and I taken against our will?”

Dominic sighed, his dark eyes taking on a kindness I hadn’t seen before. “Your father’s.”

Bryce

“You two need to leave,” Booker said. “I don’t know anything else.”

“You know how to get in touch with the Spider.”

“I already told you. He’s not answering me either. I only have the one contact avenue, and it seems to be blocked.”

“Blocked my ass,” I said through clenched teeth.

“I’m sorry about your mom and your sister,” he sa

id to Joe, effectively ignoring me. “But I can’t help you.”

Joe nodded. “Let’s go, Bryce.”

“I don’t believe him,” I said.

“Doesn’t really matter,” Joe said. “He’s not going to tell us anything. He’s made that clear.”

My father might have been a psycho, but I’d learned a lot from him, not the least of which was how to draw my weapon from a hidden holster in a flash.

Like lightning, I was on Cade Booker. “Start talking,” I said in a low voice.

“Bryce…” Joe began.

“You may trust this guy, but I sure as hell don’t. You know something, Booker—something you’re not telling us. I’m not leaving this office until you’ve come clean.”

“Bryce,” Joe said again, “don’t ruin your life here. He’ll have you arrested.”

“No, he won’t,” I said. “Because I can make his lifestyle world news. Right, Booker?”

“You bastard,” Booker said to Joe.

“Damn, Bryce,” Joe said.

“Sorry, Joe. I believe in being trustworthy, and you of all people can vouch for that. But Marjorie’s life is at stake here, and I’ll do anything I have to in order to make sure she gets home safely. If that means telling the world that Cade Booker likes to dabble in bondage, so be it.”

“There’s nothing more I can tell you.” Booker held his hands in front of him. “I’d help if I could. Joe, you know me.”

“He’s not lying to you, Bryce,” Joe said.
