The Hostage (Book 2 of The Arrangement Series) Chapter 73- I Hope You Choke On That Coffee Bitch!
It came as no surprise to Amberleigh that Courtney had made zero effort to clean up her fucking mess. That went beyond just the kitchen. The bitch had made minimal efforts at best to raise her husband’s ransom money. And it seemed unlikely the evil cunt would have a change of heart and call the whole murder her new husband plot off. It wasn’t like she was used to getting her hands dirty anyway. She was used to letting others do it for her. And that was unlikely to fucking change.They found the heiress seated on the barstool scrolling through her smart watch. She’d given up on working the latte machine. And apparently had ordered herself some overpriced coffee, set to be delivered to the lobby. What. The. Fuck.“Leonardo, I just wanted to inform you, the doorman will probably arrive soon to bring my Starbucks order up. I also called that maid and told her we needed her here tomorrow for a couple hours in the morning.”Leo leaned down against the counter. Amber could see the visibl
The Hostage (Book 2 of The Arrangement Series) Chapter 74- What Had Grayson Just Done?
It was the billionaire’s face that Leo and Amberleigh were hoping to see when the screen came into full picture mode. But disappointedly, they got a view of one of the kidnappers instead. The same man again apparently, who’d been appointed for the all the screen work it seemed, by his voice and stocky build which stretched the dark clothes on his frame. Once again, the bastard was also wearing a black ski mask with just the slit for his eyes open. Dark, deep pits with little humanity to be found in his gaze. This man had also sold his soul long ago it seemed.This time Amber tried to study him with a critical eye as possible. He had a broad nose which overtook most of his face by the shape of it beneath his mask. Some gold chains caught the light around his neck, expensive and thick ones at that. But her most valuable discovery came by watching the man pace in front of the camera to deliver his speech. Because he clearly had a limp.Leo had not bothered to black out the camera featur
The Hostage (Book 2 of The Arrangement Series) Chapter 75- Damned If We Do And Damned If We Don't
Amberleigh and Leo took a while to try and process, understand, sort through their emotions on the kitchen floor. Grayson had given up. He was depressed. He was feeling miserable from the withdrawals, both of which put him in a bad state of mind. He’d already told Amber he was exhausted not only with this diagnosis looming over him, the symptoms which were already beginning, but also from the pressure of living up to the expectations placed upon his shoulders. And Grayson was only twenty-four-years old.Grayson saw this as a way out. He never wanted to become a burden. To have to be cared for by others or lose all the parts of himself that made him who he was. More importantly, he didn’t want Amber or Leo or anyone else he loved to have to go through it either. To watch him go from an independent, reasonably healthy man in the prime of his life turn into someone else, some angry, bedridden stranger with no quality of life. In the billionaire’s mind, this was the perfect opportunity. I
The Hostage (Book 2 of The Arrangement Series) Chapter 76- Find The Neighborhood Friendly Drug Dealer, AKA Dad
Amberleigh spent some extra time getting ready to hit the streets. She tried to channel some of her old back alley whore days when she was scantily dressed in clothing she altered from the local women’s shelter, smelled of cheap perfume and desperation. She was still very much desperate these days but dressed better and smelled far better too. And well, there wasn’t that whole hungry as fuck thing and chasing her next high.Fuck. Maybe Leo was right after all. Maybe she no longer had a place in that world. What if she could no longer handle it as her ass had grown soft? She hadn’t spent the last five years wondering where she was going to get her next meal or sleep that night. She hadn’t had to beat many bitches or bastards down in the last half-decade of her club life either. Amber may have lost her touch and get her ass beat by some hoe tonight thinking Amber was trespassing on her street corner.But instead of freaking the fuck out, she added another layer of eye liner and hiked h
The Hostage (Book 2 of The Arrangement Series) Chapter 77- Depends On Whose Asking
It was around six thirty p.m. when Amberleigh walked inside the crowded bar called the Bottoms’ Up. And that had certainly more than one meaning in a seedy joint like this. This place was a fuck em’ out by the dumpster in the back or in the bathroom kind of place. A real high class establishment for sure.A couple women in the back corner were already dry humping and tonguing each other. Feeling the love and Christmas spirit. Hopefully that was all they shared with each other tonight. The herpes was going viral in The Fringe again, or so Amber had heard. It was the gift that kept on giving for sure. But on the bright side HIV was down to an all-time low, as the preventive drugs and condoms were given out in all the schools, churches, shelters, clinics, and food pantries. It was an initiative funded in part by The Godwin Foundation. Amber scoped the place out, eyes alert for any signs of Giovanni. She noticed a man with potential near the jukebox. The old jukebox had a cracked scre
The Hostage (Book 2 of The Arrangement Series) Chapter 78- Longtime No See
Thirsty Joes was just as packed as the last bar. The décor looked as old as the owner himself. Checkered floors, faded red leather booths, neon lights, antique license plates, and old cola signs. The place looked like it had last been thoroughly cleaned in the 1950’s. Amber’s heels stuck to the floor on the way across the bar and she had no fucking idea what was on the bottom of her left one. Some things were better left unknown.This time she skipped her thorough search of the bar and went directly to the woman serving. Amber would have thought a woman would have her back. But the bitch with the purple hair, nose ring, sleeve tats, was even tighter lipped than the last. And not even a fifty would loosen the bitches’ lips. She pocketed the money and didn’t say shit about where to find Giovanni.“Are you a narc?” she asked, “cause I ain’t seen you around here before. And bitch, I know everyone.”Amber snorted, “Do I look like a fuckin’ narc to you? I’m back in the neighborhood. Just go
The Hostage (Book 2 of The Arrangement Series) Chapter 79- Christmas Miracle Or Bad Omen?
Julian stared Amberleigh down, no doubt trying to assess if she could be telling the truth. Looking for anything familiar in the face of the woman he saw before him. He’d last seen his cousin as a scrawny toddler in need of a bath with tangled hair and peanut butter stains on her shirt. Amber remembered making herself a peanut butter sandwich for breakfast that day after Krystal had been passed out from an all- night bender. There were no napkins of course, so she’d just wiped all the extra peanut butter from her tiny fingers onto her shirt. “I haven’t seen my cousin in almost twenty years. And with that mother of hers, I question that my cousin even survived her childhood. How do I know you aren’t full of shit?” he asked. “Let’s see the last time I saw you Julian, it was at I think Cora or maybe Kaya’s Birthday, I always mixed those two up. You had a picture of a girl with a blond pixie cut as your screensaver and Kandi had walked in on you jerking o
The Hostage (Book 2 of The Arrangement Series) Chapter 80- Family Comes First
It didn’t surprise Amberleigh that Giovanni decided to remain standing while he greeted the daughter he’d last seen five years ago. Born and raised in a fucking slum, yet he’d always felt himself better than most of the people in it. But Giovanni was only fucking kidding himself in the end. The gang at his back and the money in his pockets gave him a false sense of invincibility and importance.But Giovanni still bled red and would likely wind up with a bullet in his head in a filthy alley one day or in prison. Old age and/or retirement were rare concepts in The Fringe. You lived in the gang until you died in the gang and often sooner rather than later. Or you were killed by a gang. As about ninety-five percent of those who lived in The Fringe were affiliated with one of the gangs who ran the streets.“Ciao Giovanna, you are all grown up. You look just like your mother.”That wasn’t fucking true, but then again her father always had his own versions of reality. Amber only had her mot

Grayson recovered quicker than Amberleigh did as she stood there covering her mouth, tears streaming down her cheeks. He fell to his knees on the concrete beside his best friend. His bound hands immediately went to the bleeding hole in Leo’s stomach trying to stop the blood flow.“Oh, fuck Leo!” screamed Grayson. “What are you doing here? Okay, we’re going to get you out of here okay brother just hold on! He needs a fucking doctor! Let Amber get Leo out of here and I’ll stay with you bastards. I’ll give you thirty billion dollars just please let Amber get Leo to the fucking hospital!”“I’m so sorry Grayson. I fucked this up…” sobbed Leo.Grayson placed his hand against Leo’s cheek as tears leaked from the corner of the chef’s eyes, sliding down into the concrete below. Tears also crept out the edges of the billionaire’s blue eyes as Grayson held his friend’s head up off the hard floor.“You didn’t. I love you, Leo. Just please hang on man. We’re going to get you some help brother.
The Hostage (Book 2 of The Arrangement Series) Chapter 97- No!
Amberleigh found herself with a gun in her face again. Fantastic. She was getting fucking tired of near-death experiences today thank you very much. And she was so looking forward to all these bastards with guns dead on the concrete floor. That was all she wanted for Christmas this year.“Who the fuck are you?” said Morte, “and who the fuck sent you?”“My name is Amberleigh Dubois. And no one sent me. I came here to broker a new deal. Two billion dollars in exchange for Grayson. And the Van Tessin’s don’t get a fuckin’ dime.”“Amber? Why the fuck are you even here? And Leo let you do this? Something so fucking dangerous and stupid. I’ll kill him! What the fuck did you hope to accomplish by showing up here? How the fuck did you even know where to find me?”She shrugged, “Their boy Lazy Eye has a big mouth. I ran into him at The Rabbit Hole. I take it you all didn’t know I was born in The Fringe and I have ties to your gang the Psychos. Lazy Eye sang like a fuckin’ canary. Easy peasy.”
The Hostage (Book 2 of The Arrangement Series) Chapter 96- I Want To Make A New Deal
Amberleigh saw no one in the warehouse lot at first as she jogged across the cracked pavement yelling her fictitious dog’s name “Bella!” She nearly had the door to the warehouse opened before a man abruptly appeared pointing a gun in her face. Her startled scream was real as a stocky man with an unkempt beard and mustache walked out. And she noticed he walked with a limp. “What the fuck do you want bitch?” he demanded. “what the fuck are you doing here?” She recognized that deep raspy voice that was as unpleasant to the ears as nails down a chalkboard. This was the fucker who had beaten Grayson on the video. That spineless coward who attacked a man who had no way to defend himself. And he wasn’t wearing a mask. No fucking way he’d let her just walk away from here. She was counting on it.She put her hands up and backed away slowly, “I’m sorry sir. I didn’t think anyone was here. I thought this place was abandoned. I was just looking for my dog Bella. I
The Hostage (Book 2 of The Arrangement Series) Chapter 95- Blessed
Giovanni decided to walk his daughter to within a few blocks of the warehouse where Grayson was being held. They spoke little on the way and for that Amberleigh was grateful. She didn’t think she could deal with another heavy conversation at the moment. Her nerves and her head were already in shambles and it only got worse the closer they got to the old warehouse. It was used to store boats long ago and had been empty for a decade at least. It was in the heart of Psycho territory and only fifteen miles from Leo’s warehouse. Well, what used to be his place anyway. Amber kept going over the details of her plan in her head. She could do this. It would work. It had to. It was a long time coming. But now that moment was here, it was with mixed emotions to say the least. She was excited, anxious, terrified, all at the same time. She just wanted to see Grayson. And she would give him the longest hug in the fucking world when both of them walked out of that fucking warehouse.
The Hostage (Book 2 of The Arrangement Series) Chapter 94- Judgement Day
Amberleigh stuttered out her plan to the Hatter coming up with the details as she went. She would be a woman walking her dog down by the docks. She would change her clothes into something more suitable and also bring along a dog leash. She would approach the warehouse and ask the man guarding it if her dog had run inside. She would say or do whatever necessary to gain entry into the warehouse.The lookout would be unlikely to shoot her. It would draw attention even in The Fringe where gunshots were as common as STIs. She was likely to be taken inside alive and no doubt at least one of the men inside would want to have his way with her. Probably more than one of them would. She was banking on the fact that would buy her enough time to be rescued before any of those events actually occurred.For his part in this risky operation, The Hatter was providing Amber with a small camera. The kind which could be easily hidden and would send a feed directly back here to The Rabbit Hole. She would
The Hostage (Book 2 of The Arrangement Series) Chapter 93- Nothing Else Mattered
It wasn’t for Lazy Eye’s neck that Amberleigh aimed the machete, but rather his right arm. The giant knife slid through just above his wrist smooth as fucking butter barely missing also taking out his thigh as well. The blade cut through the arm rest in the wooden chair and bounced against the concrete floor. Perhaps it was that jarring ring which helped bring Amber back to her fucking senses. Or the wet bounce of Lazy Eye’s hand on the floor. Because his scream had only made her want to hurt him more. Her arm ached from the force of her blow coming into contact with the hard floor. Lazy Eye yelled as a fountain of blood squirted from his newest stump. Amber stumbled back watching blood spatter towards her. She dropped the machete and turned away. What the fuck was she doing? She had just lost her fucking mind for sure. Amber placed her hand against her mouth to hold in her vomit. But it was a battle she lost as she threw up on the floor. Her vomit mingling with the p
The Hostage (Book 2 of The Arrangement Series) Chapter 92- Burn In Hell
Amberleigh would have liked to have said that she had the situation under control and didn’t need to be rescued. That she had single handedly interrogated the bad guy and found out where Grayson was being held and by how many. But instead, she was owed a big fat I told you so by her father. Luckily, Giovanni had too much class to do such a thing as he saved his daughter’s ass.The gunshots had been a dead giveaway that his offspring had run into some trouble. And it was father to the rescue as he burst through the door. Only much later would Amber wonder how her father had unlocked the door to get inside Lazy Eye’s lair, but those types of thoughts didn’t come until much later. Only much later would Amber wonder how her father had unlocked the door to get inside Lazy Eye’s lair, but those types of thoughts didn’t come until much later. Because she struggled to recover from the lack of oxygen to her brain and the pain in her body as Giovanni threw Lazy Eye halfway across the room. A
The Hostage (Book 2 of The Arrangement Series) Chapter 91- A Fatal Mistake?
Amberleigh had to put all her thoughts of disgust and wanting to gag aside as she sucked that evil bastard's cock. It wasn’t the first time she had to suck a dick she’d rather not. But this time it meant more than just trying to get a regular or a good tip. She went through the motions which made her the best, but didn’t think too much about it, like driving home late night down the same roads you'd driven a thousand times before. At least until that prick fisted her fake hair and shoved himself roughly down her throat. She wanted to bite his pecker off as she struggled to breathe. Lazy Eye rammed his cock in and out of her mouth aggressively. For men like him, this went beyond just sexual gratification. It was about dominance, control, violence, and humiliation. Amber tried to focus on getting air into her burning lungs and not vomiting, as she had lost all control over her blow job. And Lazy Eye didn’t give a fuck the discomfort he was causing her or even allow her some time to b
The Hostage (Book 2 of The Arrangement Series) Chapter 90- So Going To Kill You Tonight
Amberleigh kept her eyes on her prey, though she made a quick detour before she pounced. She stopped at the bar to buy Lazy Eye his favorite beer. More than one man eyed her as she passed, including one who squeezed her ass, but she paid them little attention. Luckily, most of the men in that room were engrossed in the fight anyway, as they had probably wagered a pretty penny on the outcome. Amber was also betting on herself to win tonight. She would fucking come out on top.She just hoped that Lazy Eye’s fighter won the match or it could put the violent man in a bad mood. It was hard for her to try and gauge exactly who was winning the fight. The screams of the crowd weren’t giving her much and both burly men in the ring were covered in blood and sweat. The hits were brutal and unforgiving. Fuck, if that was what they did to their gang brother, Amber tried to imagine what they did to rivals. She was pretty sure she saw a tooth go flying from the shorter guy’s mouth in a hail of blo
