Leah's POV
I raised my head and saw Lucas standing in front of me.
"Why are you here?" I wiped my mouth and turned my head away from him. "You're supposed to rest in bed."
"My wife is abducted by an old motherfucker in a sex dungeon and I am supposed to be lying in bed and hoping for the best?" Lucas pulled me closer to him and checked me from head to toe.
"I'm fine, totally unharmed," I said. "I'm just horrified by what that man has done to other disprivileged girls. I mean, the level of crime is appalling. I mean, all those girls... They were alone at the darkest moments of their lives..."
I couldn't finish my words because of the bitterness in my mouth.
Lucas held me tightly against his chest and wrapped his arms around my head.
"There's a big wild bad world out there, Leah. People were born inherently vice." He said while kissing my hair gently.
