Austyn reached out a hand.
Kira flinched
He wiped off a drop of water on her cheek
Ryan told me about the call.'
"What?" Kira's eyes widened. 'He promised he wouldn't do that!'
"It's his job to keep you safe." Austyn pinched her cheek. "And Gideon is not safe.""
Kira's shoulders drooped. 'Phew, okay, anyway, I just thought you should know." "Why are you coming clean now?
*ch, right, because he said something during the call. He knew Henry kidnapped me last week. He said he would get justice for me."
'He said that?"
"Uh-huh." Kira nodded. 'I didn't think much of it at that time. I didn't need his help, anyway. But now come to think of it, do you think he could have gone to find Henry?' Austyn looked pensive. "It's a possibility." *What are you planning to do?"
"Gideon can't do this alone. Henry has a security detail with him at all times. But I'll put men to tail him. If Gideon shows up anywhere near him, I'll know."
Austyn looked Kira in the eye. 'You are right. You don't need Gideon's help. I promised 1 would get justice for your father. And I would."
'I believe you.' Kira hugged him. 'I do."

Austyn smiled as he bent down to pick up Jennie,

Leave the dishes. T'do them later."
He dragged Kira into the smaller bedroom and pinned her to the bed, his movements urgent and ravenous.
He tammed into her when be felt she was ready.
'Let's make another baby. He whispered in her ear as he came.
Kira moaned in reply
Fireworks went off in her mind when he drove her to another climax.
Kira spent the next two days cooped up in the apartment, per Austyn's order.
But she had to leave the house when she got a call from Vivian.
What's this?' Kira stared at the bunch of keys on the coffee table in Vivian's apartment.
They belong to my mother. Vivian removed a small plastic toy car attached to the keychain. 'This is what I wanted you to see. "What is 17 Vivian pressed on a part of the car.
The toycame apart, revealing a microSD card.

'My mother gave it to me before her accident, Vivian said. "I never got the chance to ask her why"
