Chapter 27

  Ryker! My Dad! He kidnapped me!

  Shit! Are you at your father's house?

  No, we aren't at his house. I'm in some kind of big, old shed or run-down, abandoned factory. I've never been here before.

  Leon is bringing me a map; we’ll mark all the abandoned buildings and sheds, and check each and every one.

  You need to hurry; he says he is going to kill our baby. I hear a ferocious growl through the link.

  I'm going to kill him if he lays a finger on you or our baby.

  Dad grabs my hair and strikes me across the face.

  ‘Are you even listening to me? Or are you too busy zoning out?’ He yells.

  ‘Ryker is going to find me and he is going to kill you for this!’ I yell.

  ‘Your precious Ryker hey? So, he’s your baby Daddy,’ he says.

  ‘Yes. Ryker is my mate!’ I reply.

  ‘Your mate? And what kind of term is that?’ He asks.
