Chapter Twenty-One

Oz sank into Maria’s mind, reliving the nightmare with her in the hotel bathroom with the man known as Xavier.

He pulled back when her memories touched on the masturbation scene next to the bed.

“I’ll kill him,” Oz swore between clenched teeth. “The son of a bitch will die a horrific death.”

Maria pulled the sheet up over her body, shame evident in her eyes. “I don’t ever want to look at his disgusting face again. The things he said and did…” The words died on her lips as her eyes slid shut.

Her breathing became even, telling Oz that she slept. The pain pills he’d given her had finally kicked in.

Oz leaned down and softly kissed her lips. “You’ll never have to see him again. No one will.”

Getting to his feet, Oz left the room and made his way to the wheelhouse where Gryke and Fiona sat.

Fiona looked up from a map she held. “How is she?”

“She’s sleeping now. I’m pretty sure she has some cracked ribs.”

“Was she sexually assaulted?” Fiona asked in a hesitant voice.

Oz shook his head. “No. Thank God. But she would have been had we not arrived when we did.”

Filling them in on everything he’d learned from Maria, Oz took control of the wheel. “We’ll anchor here. It’ll be morning soon, and we need to rest before we attempt to go back ashore. We leave at sundown.”

“I really think I should come with you,” Fiona pressed, her lips tight with frustration.

Oz turned to face her. “As much as we could use your help, Maria needs you more.”

Fiona abruptly stood. “Very well. I’m going to grab a bite to eat and get a few hours’ sleep. I’ll see you later.”

“She is a stubborn one,” Gryke pointed out after Fiona disappeared down the steps.

Oz tugged the elastic band from his wrist and pulled his hair back into a ponytail. “It’s been my experience that most women are.”

Gryke grunted. “What is your plan once we return to the hotel?”

“We’ll slip in through the service entrance and hopefully catch them off guard. They won’t be expecting us, so we have that advantage.”

“And if they are not there?”

Oz gripped the wheel and gazed in the direction of the hotel. “They’ll be there.”
