Chapter Eleven

Zara eyed Holt warily. She had never seen him so angry. Not that she knew him that well, but he was virtually buzzing with hatred as he prowled the room.

A strange room it was too, decorated in varying shades of pink and dotted with candles. Plus, she’d never actually seen a bed shaped like a heart before. It looked like Aphrodite’s bedroom, or at least a honeymoon suite in Vegas.

Following Holt had perhaps not been her best decision, but she couldn’t think of any other way to find Sean. She just hadn’t figured on half a dozen suspicious gorillas lurking around ready to nab her for coughing too loudly. Well, okay, she was trying to break into the club, but it was like they were waiting for her!

“You gonna tell me what’s going on?” she asked, still hovering next to the locked door.

Yep, the owner of the club had put them both in there after Holt went ballistic, and very definitely locked the door. Holt had tried smashing it, but if it could withstand an angry gorilla, Zara figured it wasn’t going to open anytime soon.

Holt stopped his pacing and scowled at her. “How did you find me? I checked to make sure no one was following me.”

“I thought you might try and ditch me…”

“Ditch you?” he scoffed. “You told me to get the hell away from you.”

“I’m not sure I used those words.”

Holt grunted.

“So when I did the finders spell I also cooked up a little something to keep tabs on you.”

He frowned uncomprehendingly.

Zara stepped forward and pushed her hand into his pocket. For a moment he looked surprised and slightly excited, but uncertainty returned she pulled out a small quartz rock. It had been a relief that he hadn’t changed into a new pair of jeans after the car crash. But Zara had seen his wardrobe – he owned about ten garments in total. It was likely that Holt wouldn’t get rid of any item of clothing unless it was on fire, and maybe not even then. Truthfully, she was the same in that respect.

Holt plucked the stone from her fingers.

“It’s like a magical tracking device,” she explained.

“I can’t believe you did this,” he muttered staring at it like it owed him money.

“Can’t you?” she snorted, turning and dropping onto the heart-shaped bed. “Earlier you handcuffed me to a bed and then locked me in a bathroom. Seems like this was the least I could do.”

Holt slanted a look at her and mumbled, “Yeah, probably true.”

“What on earth is going on here? Who was that guy?”

“My uncle.”

“You’re kidding?” she exclaimed, jaw thoroughly dropped. “Why the hell would he lock us both in here?”

He stayed silent, and she let out a sigh of irritation and flopped on her back. Secrets again. She should have listened to Sebastian and stayed in bed.

“Fine, but I’m not sticking around for whatever weird family drama you have going on. Five minutes and I am out of here.” Five minutes for the coast
