Addi got herself into a position with her legs shoulder width apart, her knees bent, and her arms up. She didn’t fist her hands, but kept them open and ready to hit him with the heel of her hand, preferably in the nose or cheekbone where his eyes would water and she’d gain a few seconds’ advantage.

“Andrew saved my life and now I’m going to save his and get justice for my dad.” He gathered a breath. “They’re luring him into a trap. They plan on killing both hostages and Andrew, and then going after Trigger.”

Addi’s trembling hand went to her mouth, adrenaline still pumping through her.

“I was more than happy to wait and let Mauler and Dingo kill Trigger and take over the Grinders before I handed the evidence I collected while in the club to the RCMP, but when I found out their plan for the woman, her kid, and Andrew, I knew I had to stop them. I work for a private security firm and I’ve gotten all the information to them. They’re with the authorities now presenting them with evidence, but there’s no time.”

“How do we stop them? I’ll do anything.”

“Walk and talk, Addi.” They headed to the car Sean had in the parking lot while he continued speaking. “So Andrew took off from the clubhouse one night, a week after they picked him up from the camp when he was sixteen. They couldn’t find him, but they’ve never stopped looking. Most of the club members are pissed at the old man’s obsession, but Trigger wants his son to run the club with him and take over eventually. They want the old man out and they’ll kill Andrew to make sure he won’t come claim his place.”

“He won’t be easy to take down.”

“I know that, too. But I’m afraid after they’ve killed the woman and her kid, he won’t fight them. Especially if he thinks they don’t know about you and his death will end everything and keep you safe.” He took his hands out of his pockets and pointed the fob at the car to unlock it.

Addi’s nose tingled with unshed emotion and she nodded, knowing it was true. He would give his life if it meant ending it all and saving her. Sean opened the passenger side door and waited for Addi to get in.

“If I show up with you and tell them I found the real girlfriend, it’ll confuse them long enough for me to take them down and you to get Layla and her son out safely. Hopefully before Trigger arrives. The boss trusts me, but they don’t. If I hand you over, it’ll hopefully prove I’m one of them. They’ll never expect me to turn on them then.” His eyes were a deep brown and with his blond hair he reminded her of a teddy bear.

“I won’t let anything happen to you, Addi. I promise.” He took out a roll of duct tape. “But you’re going to have to pretend I will.”
