Jade - Chapter 17

Opal was enjoying Paris. She’d never traveled before outside of the United States, and was having so much fun she decided she might extend her vacation for another month. Who did she have back home to need her? Besides, she’d done really well at the show last month, and she was determined to have a good time before she had to go back and start making things again for the next one. Or, she thought, she’d open her own store. People really seemed to like what she did.

“Excusez-moi, mademoiselle? Savez-vous où je pourrais trouver l'Hôtel Marcus?” It took her a few minutes to try to translate what the man was asking her. But she beamed when she knew it.

“The Hotel Marcus is on Seventh near the Tea and Crumbles.” She hoped that’s what she told him anyway when she repeated it in French. When he nodded and stepped around her, she let him go without another thought. People were so nice here.

When she was bumped hard from behind, she turned to say she was sorry. She’d been looking at her map again and sometimes would forget there were others moving around her. But the man said something else to her, and she had a feeling it wasn’t nice. When she looked around, she realized that they were alone. Where had all the other people gone?

“You’ll come with me, my dear.” Opal backed up and blindly put her map in her bag. “Running will do you no good. I’ve your scent now, and I plan to take you somewhere we can…talk.”

“No. I don’t know who you are, but I’m not going anywhere with you.” She saw a second man coming out of the alley, and he didn’t look all that happy to see her either. “I’ll scream.”

“And who do you suppose would hear you? I’ve protected you from the tourists around here. It’s just you and me. And I do not like to be told no.” The man was coming faster now, but he seemed to be so far away. Opal had a thought that the man in front of her had no idea about the one behind him, and decided that she didn’t want to go with either of them. Turning on her heel, she took off running until she hit a wall. No, not a wall, but another man.

Looking up into the face of the man that held her to him, she felt a little faint. Men like this one just didn’t touch women like her. She tried to struggle away from him, but he snapped at her to be still.

“Sloan? What are you doing here? I thought you were firmly entrenched in the States.” They didn’t seem to be friends, and the man from the alley confirmed it when he grabbed the first one around the throat with his massive arms.

“I think you know why I’m here. And you’ll leave her alone. She’s not yours.” The man looked confused as Sloan continued. “You touch any of the women from this pack and I’ll personally tear your heart out.
