Collin thought to himself, ‘Given Bonnie’s character, I really should’ve known she’d intervene.’
‘We’re in a world of danger now, but I’m going to risk my life and keep her safe, no matter what happens later.’
Both of them raced backstage and climbed to the top floor before they finally saw Yasmine being rolled into one of the luxurious rooms.
Billy had not made it there yet. So, Yasmine was still safe for the time being.
Leaning close to Collin, Bonnie whispered, “Go around to the back. Find a car and wait for me. I’m going to stay here and save Yasmine when I have the perfect window.”
He shook his head. “No way in hell, chief. We’re in this together. That means we will either stay here or leave this place together. I’m not going to leave you here alone.”
“It’s not going to do us any good if both of us stay here and save Yasmine. We won’t be able to get away from this hellhole if there’s no one to spring us out of here.”
Reaching out, she patted him on the shoulder. “Do as I say, and we’ll get away in one piece. Otherwise, we’re just putting ourselves in greater danger.”
He frowned. “You might have a point, chief, but—”
Before he could finish, she cut him off. “Stop with the ‘buts’ and get a move on. Find us a getaway car now.”
He was still going to say something, but he heard a series of footsteps, which were followed by chattering.
“You’re going to have what you want tonight, Mr. Billy. This is Yasmine we’re talking about here. I could just imagine how gratifying it would be to taste her sweet nectar.”
Coarse laughter escaped Billy’s throat. “Hahaha! I know you guys are eager to do it too. So, I’m going to taste it first and find out just how pleasurable it will be before I let you guys have your turn.
“After all, I consider you guys as my closest friends. Do you think I wouldn’t have thought of you all?”
All the organization leaders swapped glances and burst into leering laughter.
“Hahaha! How generous, Mr. Billy! It’s so you to be looking out for us!”
