Chapter Ten

Holly

It wasn’t my fault, and yet, I couldn’t help but feel responsible.

I’d been in Renaud’s home. I’d desired him. Wanted him to screw me six ways to Sunday, even though it’d felt wrong. Dirty.

“Kate just got back to me,” I said after reading the text. “She said going to Renaud’s club wasn’t the original plan. She met some guy three nights prior to the bachelorette party, and he invited her to Renaud’s place Friday night, and so, she switched the location of the party in hopes of seeing him there.”

I handed Jake my mobile to show him the information Kate had provided. The description of the guy, the time, and place. “You think that guy’s our kidnapper then?” I asked Jake as he forwarded the details to Alexa.

“Let’s hope so, because we can pull surveillance from the bar Kate first met him at,” he answered.

“Unless the bastard kept his face hidden there, too,” Adam said, a grim tone to his voice.

“Let’s try and be positive.” Jake handed the mobile back to me.

“Renaud. Callaghan.” I whispered their names under my breath as we ascended. “None of this makes sense. But so help me, if either of them hurts Anna I’ll kill them myself.”

Xander peeked at me from over his shoulder. His eyes the color of steel. “I’ll hold him down while you do it if that’s the case.” I could feel the hard sting of his words. It didn’t appear to be his first time dealing with death. “But let’s get Anna back without anything happening to her.”

Adam didn’t say a word; how could he? His mind had to be racing in so many different directions, and surely all tracks led back to a perfect storm of grief and anger. And I knew my brother, he’d destroy anyone who even touched Anna.

“Les Fleurs,” I whispered as a memory grabbed hold of me. “Sean and Da met up with Callaghan at that restaurant this past week. I bumped into Sebas . . . er, Renaud there that night. He also owns that place.”

“Too many coincidences.” Adam’s tone converted to a half growl as he spoke.

When the doors parted, Xander asked, “Callaghan or Renaud first?”

“Renaud,” Jake said, and a few seconds later, we knocked on his door.

My heart wedged into my throat, temporarily obstructing my airway when the door opened inward.

Worn-out jeans and a white tee—a look I hadn’t anticipated on a man like him. His broad shoulders filled out the shirt, the same way his biceps fought with the fabric of the sleeves.

Renaud met my eyes. Looking at me as if I were the only one standing before him.

“I was expecting you.” He stepped back, offering us entrance, and a cold bristle of air flowed up my spine when I moved past him then turned around.

He scratched at the back of his neck and faced us once the door was closed.

Everything had me on edge just being within arm’s reach of him. And so, I backed the hell up, nearly bumping into the hall table.
