“Bad girl, you made me fuck you hard,” I grunt, offloading my release into her pulsing heat. I kiss her softly when she doesn’t look the least bit ashamed. “I love you, Lawless.”

“Just because you realized that I could corrupt you doesn’t mean that I’m lawless. This is my bed and I just laid here…helpless,” she sighs, pressing her hand to her forehead, pausing for dramatic effect.

“Are you done?”

“I thought that it was loud enough, but if it wasn’t….”

“You’re so lucky, wife.” I lift my hand and aim it at her bottom, but instead of giving her a nice pat on her ass, I pull out and stand, picking up my boxers.

“Need to meet Danny, who should be here any minute.” Just like that, I hear the front door to the condo. “Looks like he’s already here.” I quickly slip on my clothes and then bend down to kiss my wife.

“You need to go to the bathroom?”

“Please.” I scoop her up and set her down.

“I’ll be back in a minute. I’m just going to let him know that I didn’t fall back to sleep.”

“Okay.”

When I walk out of the bedroom, Danny’s got a cup of coffee and a donut in his hand. “It’s been a long fucking night. Are you ready?”

“No, I’ll be there in a minute. I have to help Lara back to bed.”

“How is the hell-raiser?”

“Ready to run, but thankfully she can’t yet. She still loves me, so I have that going for me.”

“Good. I’ll just wait here.” I nod and then walk back into the bathroom, helping Lara who needs help to wash her hands because she can’t stand.

“I’m good. I can make it to the bed. It’s not that far.”

“I don’t want you in pain or having a setback.”

“Always carrying me around.”

“You’re a feather, my love. God, you feel so good in my arms. I live for holding you.” I regretfully set her down in our bed and then tuck her under the covers before kissing her forehead. “I’d kiss your lips, but they’re a trap.”

“That they are,” she giggles. She reaches out and cups my cock. “So is this.”

“Later,” I growl, standing straight up and keeping my dick out of reach.

“I love you, Landon.”

“I love you too, my everything. Rest. I’ll be back soon. I should be in my office for now.” I head out of the bedroom before I delay any longer. I straighten my shoulders and stiffen my back as I make my way down the hall because I’m not looking forward to whatever Danny has to tell me.

“Okay, take a seat and give me what you got.” I sit behind my desk and wait for the bad news to hit me.

“Here it is.” He hands me a string of messages between my father’s phone and Lara’s former guard.

Don’t kill her. I want him to pay for her safe return.

I can’t stand this bitch. He could have picked someone better.

Did you listen to what I said? I want his money and the rich bastard’s not sharing.

Fine, but you have one day to get this done.

I stare at the messages, wondering what the fuck I ever did to him. If anything, he should be grateful for the generosity I showed him when he didn’t deserve an ounce of it. “Do you have reason to believe he didn’t send these? I didn’t get a ransom note.”

“Well, not really. It’s not like she said anything about a man abducting her, but at the same time, he didn’t have enough time because she escaped right after that last message.”

“Still. Is there more?”

“Yes. I pulled his bank records. He’s been funneling money to them.”

“Damn it. Why?”

“I don’t know. That’s definitely a question you’d have to ask him, but I’m here for whatever you want to do. You know that, right?”

“Yes, Danny. I know. You’re the one man I trust to watch over my woman.”

“And that says a lot. Okay, so we can scoop him up tonight and begin questioning him, or you can play it cool and invite him to the offices tomorrow and learn about his motives.”

“Money is his motivation, but after all that he put me through, you’d think we would have been even.”

“Dig some more. There’s no need to rush. I’m keeping Lara safe here where he can’t get to her.”

“Understood. What about those bitches?”

“I’d say find them and then tip off the police to their whereabouts. I’d like to bury them all in due course.”

We spend the next hour going through more of the information while he continues to dig into my father. There’s just enough of a trail to realize he’s more than likely guilty of all charges.

“If that’s it, I’d like to get back to Lara so she doesn’t freak out.”

“Got it. I’ll be in the office for the next couple of hours, and then I need to check on Kelly.”
