We spent the entire day yesterday on the beach, only coming up for air when our stomachs told us we had to eat. Sophia loves the water as much as I do. Building sandcastles and swimming in the calm, cool water is what heaven must be like, if it even exists.

Michael sits with her on the sand as she buries him in it, giggling while he shakes his head.

“Better not get any in my mouth, princess,” he chuckles.

“Well, I didn’t exactly mean to last time.” She props a hand on her hip, fixing her pink sunglasses before picking up her shovel and dropping more sand around his middle.

“You look good down there,” I tease, biting into my bottom lip, because this man does all kinds of things to me.

But when he’s being a father…God, I just want to throw myself at him and kiss him hard.

He flips his sunglasses off his eyes, thick brows popping. “Keep talking, baby, and I’ll bury you with me.”

Please do.

“Uh-huh. Good luck catching me.” I laugh, starting backward, waving goodbye with both hands.

“Don’t fly too far, little dove,” he warns as his eyes narrow.

“Don’t worry.” I wink, and his nostrils flare. “You’ll always manage to find me.”

I turn around, glancing at him over my shoulder, his gaze haunting like matching flames, equal parts passion and fury. I like making him a little angry, knowing he’s probably itching to get his hands on me. And I like what he does to my body when I piss him off.

I head for the bar, needing something to cool me down, especially right about now.

Distance grows between us, and I wander toward the bar all the way at the end of the beach. I like walking. I never got to do that.

On the way, I pass by two guys, both around my age, sitting on some loungers with some beers. One starts to whistle real low.

“Damn,” he whispers when I’m right by them. “She’s fine as hell.”

“I think she’s with that guy,” another says, and I see him staring where I had come from.

“You married, sweetheart? ’Cause if not, I’ve got a private jet with your name on it.”

That’s when I pause mid-stride.

Did he say a private jet?

This is my chance to help Kayla. It has to be a sign. If I can somehow get myself on that jet and fly out of here, instead of pretending to be one happy family that we are not, then I can find my friend and the others. Or at least I can die trying.

“Uh, I’m not married,” I tell them, twirling my hair, the corner of my mouth twining up. “That’s my brother and my niece.” I giggle. “Where are you guys from?”

“Cali,” the one who whistled says. “What about you, pretty girl?”

“New York. You think you can fly me there?”

Hopefully, they don’t try to kill me.

“Hell yeah, I can.”

I quickly glance behind me, expecting to see Sophia and Michael where I left them. My pulse jumps.

Where are they? Crap. What if he saw me?

I face the two men again.
