Shaun sat gingerly on the couch, moving a porcelain doll so she wouldn't sit on it. She rubbed Saskia's arm. "It's only for a few more days, until Jozef can make sure it's safe for you to return to campus. He has to make sure the deal your father brokered with the dean of the university is still going to be honoured." "That's what he says," Saskia charged. "But I think he's keeping me here because I'm a flight risk." Saskia's frustration was real, but Shaun suspected it wasn't entirely directed at Jozef. Saskia had tasted a moment of freedom and had looked forward to finally having the world at her fingertips. Now, she was right back where she started, but her entire family dynamic had changed. "Are you a flight risk?" Shaun asked gently. Saskia chewed on her lip and then swallowed hard, her eyelashes fluttering so the tears wouldn't spill. "I don't know," she admitted. "Maybe." She exhaled. "Things just feel so different now. It was never awesome l

Shaun was annoyed with her bodyguard. He'd insisted on bringing Adam to the shed, rather than allowing her to take him to either the hospital, or at the very least, the infirmary up at the house. She hated the shed. It brought back memories of her first few days with Jozef, which were fraught with fear and anxiety. When she'd been convinced he'd eventually kill her. He'd forced her to spend the night in one of the cells after she tried to escape. The only thing that stopped that memory from being completely traumatic was Jozef coming in during the night and sleeping with her. That was the first moment she believed he truly cared for her. The next morning he'd been cold and unapproachable again. Adam was laid out on a wooden pallet with his shirt stripped off. He moaned in pain while Shaun treated his wound. He'd been shot, he was lucky; the bullet had grazed him, going in his side and right back out, without hitting anything important. It was a flesh wound, but it would

The gun range was on the property, but Shaun found out that it was easier to get to it by leaving the property and driving around to the other side of the estate. She truly did not know exactly how large the Koba lands were, but she should probably find out so she wouldn't be constantly shocked. Maybe find out if there was a map. They drove through the guarded gates on the other side of the property, drove up a hill and came to a stop next to a large wooden building. Outside the building was something that looked like an obstacle course with targets set up at strategic points. The competitor in Shaun sat up and took notice. She might hate the idea of weapons and the destructive implications behind them, but she enjoyed excelling at everything she tried. Each new skill she developed was carefully honed until she was as close to perfect as possible. Jozef showed her around the building, starting with a truly impressive armoury. Every weapon imaginable filled the st

Havel grunted and stumbled back as he absorbed Jozef's blow. Jozef was beating the shit out of him, while he'd only landed a couple of blows. It went this way every time they sparred. Havel was heavy with muscle, while Jozef was light on his feet and wiry. Muscles roped the younger man's arms as he danced before landing each blow. Havel was next only to Jozef. No one else could beat him, which was his only consolation after a good ass-whooping courtesy of his best friend and boss. Jozef didn't pull his punches but attacked full force and danced away before Havel could land a single blow. Havel was still catching his breath when he saw Jozef come at him out of the corner of his eye. He held up his boxing glove and shouted, "Mercy." Though the sound was muffled through his mouth guard, Jozef heard him and stopped his advance. Havel dropped to his knees, spat out his mouth guard and sucked precious air into his lungs. Each breath sent a blast of nause

Saskia's ears were covered with the bright blue mufflers she used when she was shooting. She'd been shooting more than usual, trying to release some of the tension that had been building up over the loss of control of her life. She was going back to school again, but if she'd thought her father went ridiculously overboard on the protection detail, Jozef was on a whole other level. He wanted the entire campus crawling with their people, protecting her and, in her opinion, keeping her prisoner. In the house, she felt like a stranger. It looked the same, but it wasn't. Her parents were gone, her sister was gone, and in their place was Jozef and Shaun. She loved and respected her cousin, but she knew he was hunting her mother. Her mother! The bitch who gave birth to her and then ruined all of their lives. Still, she didn't want her mother to die. She'd pleaded with Jozef to allow her to take care of their mother, to imprison her and keep her safe. Of course,
