SOFIA

I hear Liam yelling over the line and then Rafferty puts the call on speaker.

“Tell him you’re safe, Sofia,” Rafferty tells me calmly.

“I’m safe,” I assure Liam.

“What the hell is going on, Raff? Why is Sofia with you?” Liam demands.

“Sofia?” It’s Rory and I hear the worry in her voice.

“I’m fine, Rory. I told you I was safe and everything was okay.”

“Through a text message! I got worried because you didn’t call and anyone could’ve forced you to send that message. When I didn’t hear back, I panicked.”

I exchange a look with Rafferty and sigh. We’re about to get reamed. Ah, the joy of having older, know-it-all, big bossy siblings.

“I’m okay,” I repeat. “Truly.”

“Matteo is on a rampage,” Liam states. “He has men scouring the city for you, Sofia, and it isn’t safe.”

“It’s true,” Rory confirms. “We didn’t know what was going on, so I called mom. She said he’s lost his mind and he’s fueled by so much anger that she doesn’t know what to do.”

Oh, no. “This is all his fault,” I declare in a firm voice, my own anger surfacing. “He had Rafferty kidnapped and chained up in the basement cell for weeks.”

“What?” Liam growls and I hear my sister gasp.

“It’s true.” Rafferty reaches over and, for the first time, takes my hand in his and laces his fingers through mine. “Sofia helped me escape.”

“He was going to kill him,” I tell them, our gazes locking, hands tightening. “I couldn’t let that happen.”

“That sonofabitch,” Liam says.

“What happened?” Rory asks.

“I stole the key from Papà’s office, unlocked Rafferty and guided him through the tunnels, down to the riverfront.”

“Sofia saved my life,” Rafferty tells them. “I owe her everything.”

“Why did you go with him, though?” Rory asks.

Our gazes lock and I squirm in my seat.

“Well, he, ah, didn’t exactly give me much of a choice.”

“I kidnapped her,” Rafferty says, not even trying to sugarcoat it.

“Goddammit, Raff, are you crazy?” Liam snaps. “Now every Marino enforcer is out looking for you both.”

“I didn’t have a choice! They caught us and pulled their guns. Using Sofia was the only way I could get out of there alive.”

His words must make sense because Liam stops yelling. For a long moment, no one says anything. Then, Rory says, “Sofia, I want to talk to you. Alone.”

I glance over at Rafferty and he slowly stands up. “Take all the time you need.”

“Just Sofia,” Rory says. “That means out, Liam.”

“What?”

“You heard me.”

I hide a smile at my sister bossing her husband around.

“Call me back from Sofia’s phone,” Liam orders Rafferty. In the background, I hear him leave Rory when a door closes over the line.

Rafferty lifts my hand, presses a kiss to my knuckles and then reluctantly releases my hand. As he walks out, my stomach tightens. God, he’s making me feel things and think things that I shouldn’t. I’m on the verge of giving my heart to this man, but I have no idea if he wants it.

“Sofe?”

I take the phone off speaker and lift it to my ear.
