Page 35 of Recklessly In Love With A Ruthless Savage

“What, when, where the fuck is she?”

“Take it easy, Princess. Timber and Tati handled it.”

“What do you mean two 7-year-olds handled a grown woman trying to kidnap our daughter?”

I wanted to stop and go into the fact that she said our daughter, but I would get back to that later.

“Exactly what I said. Timber fought her off and when Tati heard the commotion she ran into the stall and tased Stephanie.When we got into the dressing room they had her pinned to the floor,” I told her with a smile on my face.

“What are you smiling about? They could have been hurt. What happened to Stephanie?”

“This could have ended badly if the girls didn’t fight back. I’m proud of them and you should be too. Just know Timber will be getting more self-defense and weapons training. She has to be able to fight until we can get to her.”

“Why do you think she did it?”

“I’m about to find out. Give me a few hours and I’ll be back.” I kissed her cheek, happy that she didn’t argue about me leaving. I changed into something a little more comfortable and headed to the location that was sent.

Stephanie was tied up to a chair in the middle of a warehouse in between Brookview and Timberline. The warehouse looked well used and had a collection of torture devices that would make the craziest psychopath smile. Each man in the room stood around dressed in all black and ready for anything.

“Please, it wasn’t my idea. Kennedy told me I had to bring her to her and her brother. I wasn’t going to hurt her. I was just taking her to her father.”

“Nah, bitch you wasn’t. Cause I’m her father. I warned you what would happen!” I barked.

“I’m sorry. I-I don’t know where to find them. I was supposed to call them when I had her.” She screamed.

“I didn’t ask you shit. Remember, Stephanie, no questions. Plus, I don’t believe you. I think you’re lying to me.”

“No, I promise I don’t know.”

“Stephanie, you know who I am right?

“Y-Yes Mr. Sanderson.”

“What about the men with me? Do you know them?”

“Yes.”

“Then you know no lie you tell is gon get you out of this. Now tell us everything you think is the truth or I swear on my dead parents that I will break every bone in your body and then these two,” I said, pointing to Black and Blue. “Will bury you alive before we go and find your old ass parents and do the same to them.” Black handed me a hammer from the wall of tools behind Stephanie and I walked closer to her as she screamed and tried to free herself from her restraints.

“My parents work for the Harris’s. They paid for me to go to college and helped me get this job. I owe them so when the Harris’s paid me to watch Nova and report back to them about her every move, I couldn’t refuse. They said they wanted Nova and Timberly back. But then when Kennedy moved here my assignment changed. Kennedy said she wanted to ruin her before her brother came back to get her. She hates Nova not just because of what she did to her brother but mostly because of you.”

“Why would she hate Nova because of me? I don’t know that bitch.”

“Yes you do. She said you picked her up at a club one night a year ago and never called her again after.”

I thought back for a moment to the few women I’ve slept with since Sabrina. But most we’re a blank none of them ever last more than a few months since I wasn’t interested in more than a fuck or some head. They were all cool with the arrangement. But there was one that seemed more desperate for the dick than all the others. I remember I let the bit give me head in my car before I kicked her out. I don’t even remember her face. Fuck maybe that was her because I don’t remember fucking with Kennedy’s delusional ass.

“Fuck that. I don’t give a fuck about her delusional ass reasons. Where the fuck is Kennedy and her brother?”

“I don’t know exactly. But I do know that they are both still here in town. They were waiting for my call, I swear. That’s all I know, please. I told you everything I know.”

“Right, thanks for that. Make it quick,” I said, looking over to the guard standing at the back of the room.

“Please, I didn’t hurt her.” She screamed before the pop of a gun silenced her cries.

I turned my back to the scene and stood, waiting to hear what else the twins had for me.

"I ran everything we got from Stephanie on Kyle Harris and his people again. Clean on paper, but underneath?" Blue said, turning his laptop toward us. "Dirty money, quit a few private settlements. They have some judges in their pocket as well as some shell companies tied to some very old, very southern money."
