like this. With her in my arms, my bed, taking me night after night.

The time we’d been apart hadn’t eased the fire I felt for her. If anything, it made me more desperate for her.

I needed her more than anything else in the world.

Kissing her neck, I flicked over her pulse, feeling her orgasm starting to build. I watched her come all over my length. I loved the way she tightened around me. She was my everything. I loved her more than anything else in the world, and I’d do anything to make her happy. Even as she used me to punish Caleb, I didn’t care. I knew deep down that she loved us all. This pain would pass. We’d get Ashley back, Emily would belong to us, and we’d finally be free to be happy.

That was all I wanted.

With the path so clear, I gave in to my needs, and I came, feeling Emily shake above me as I held her in place. We hadn’t used a condom and to my knowledge, none of us had. She was no doubt going to be pregnant soon. It was only a matter of time. I was happy, but part of me was afraid. My mother had died in childbirth. I didn’t know if I could stand for Emily to die. She was everything to us. I hadn’t told any of the guys because I knew they’d worry as well. I wanted their head in the game.

Chapter Eight

Vadik

 

For Caleb to be drinking scotch straight from the bottle, I knew something had to have gone down. Gael had given me the call to return home as he had the details we needed. The streets hadn’t exactly been forthcoming with information. Everyone I spoke to gave me all the details I needed to know, but the information was useless and everyone knew that.

Earl Valentine didn’t vanish off the face of the earth.

I knew he’d betray us. Could almost taste it the moment he offered us that deal, but we’d all been too desperate to even care.

Betrayal or not, we’d gone after the one person we loved more than anything.

Now, Emily was nowhere to be seen, Caleb drank, and Gael, well, he looked like the cat that got the cream and ran over at the same time. I didn’t know what was worse.

“What’s going on?” I asked. I usually didn’t mind the silence, but since Emily’s return, it had been hard to come by.

“Nothing,” Caleb said.

“She will forgive you,” Gael said.

“Shut up, Gael,” Caleb said.

I looked between the two.

“This isn’t nothing,” River said.

“I don’t need to discuss every single detail of our lives.” Caleb glared at us before throwing back more alcohol.

“No, you don’t normally have to, but you’re drinking straight from the bottle.” I pointed out the obvious.

“It’s Emily,” Gael said. “Caleb watched her have sex with me and immediately after, she ran out of the room. I haven’t seen her.”

I looked toward Caleb.

“You’re being a dick to her, why?” Gael asked.

“She hates my guts right now.”

“You’re not the only one who made the decision and yet she’s targeting you. Why?” Gael asked.

Caleb laughed and got to his feet. “Why do you think? I’m the easy target. I’m the one who makes the final decisions. I’m the one who fucking agreed with that piece of shit that Ashley would go with him. It’s all on me.”

“Let’s stay on track,” River said. “You had something.”

I focused on Gael. I didn’t like how weak we were looking or sounding. We had our disagreements. What family didn’t? But getting Emily back wasn’t supposed to tear us apart.

“He’s got her out on one of his ships. The Valentine. He made sure we were busy with Emily. He took off. Our men were given the slip. He had some body doubles go to the home we agreed upon. While we were distracted, as were our men, he took Ashley out of the port, and he’s now sailing somewhere. I’ve already called in a few favors. We’re going to get a location within hours.”

Caleb launched the bottle across the room. “I’m going to kill him.”

“We can’t do anything that will risk her life. We know that. He knows that.” I tried to reason with him.

“He knows jack shit,” Caleb said. He ran a hand down his face. Suddenly, he started to laugh. “Do you realize how stupid we sound? We jumped on the first man to offer us a chance to get our woman. It makes us look weak.”

“When it comes to Emily, we are weak,” River said.

“We don’t even know if the threat is truly gone.” Caleb growled. “When I find him, he better hope he’s killed himself because I’m going to make him pray for death long before I grant it.”

“We can’t do anything rash,” I said.

“Have you found her?”

We all turned toward the door at the sound of Emily’s voice. She stood in the doorway. I’d been too distracted to hear her come in. She was messing with all of our heads, but if we weren’t careful, we were all going to get killed and it wouldn’t be her fault, but ours. She hadn’t come back to us. We’d gone to her.

“We know where he’s taken her,” Caleb said.

She nodded. “Good. What’s the plan?”

“You’re not part of it.”

“I want my cell phone,” she said. “I want to know if I can at least get in touch with her.”

“We don’t have it,” Caleb said. “We trashed all of your possessions.”

“You’re infuriating.” She ran a hand down her face, clearly struggling to stay in control. She held her hands out. “I don’t want to fight anymore. I … can we just all agree to work together to get Ashley back?”
