Accidentally Kidnapping The Don/Billiejo Priestley
Blake POVSitting at the table, last night’s events replay in my mind like a broken record. Dhalia’s voicemail kept echoing in my head, but after the first one, I couldn’t bring myself to listen to the others. The pain in her voice, the sheer brokenness, it was too much. It makes me question everything—did we get it all wrong? I haven’t listened to the other messages, and I can’t. Not yet.“He needs to eat,” Chase mutters from across the table, and I know he’s right. Jax has been silent since the event, like a ghost walking through the house. He didn’t eat last night, and this morning, he’s barely touched anything. Sighing, I decide to face him, even if it means enduring whatever anger he’s bound to throw my way.When I get to his room, I push the door open and find him sitting on the bed, the phone pressed against his ear. I don’t need to ask to know that he’s listening to her voicemails. The pain radiating from his eyes tells me everything. He pulls the phone away, presses the scree

Blake POVWe walk through the house, and Chase intercepts us at the door. “Where are you going?” he asks, his voice laced with uncertainty.“To get her! Where else?” Jax pushes past him, and I step between them before things can escalate. “You never wanted her here. You never wanted to accept her. You wanted to push her out and destroy it, well, you have!” Jax screams, and I can feel the anger radiating off him in waves.“Look, I’m sure Chase realises his mistake now,” I say, trying to deescalate the situation. I look at Chase, seeing the guilt and turmoil in his eyes. He’s just as torn up as we are, even if he won’t admit it.“Don’t speak to me, because I will kill you,” Jax spits, turning and storming out the door. Sighing, I follow him with Chase trailing behind us. We just need to get to Keeley’s, get Dhalia back, and explain everything.In the car, I look at Jax, trying to keep him calm. “Stay calm. If you lose it with Keeley, she won’t tell us anything, and she’s the only one wh

Accidentally Kidnapping The Don/Billiejo Priestley
Dhalia POVI’m startled awake by the sound of something smashing. Groaning, I push myself up from where I’d been slumped against the door, my body aching from the awkward position. Every muscle protests as I stand, and I stretch, trying to shake off the stiffness. The bathroom where I’d holed up last night feels even smaller in the cold light of morning.I make my way to the shower, hoping for some warmth to soothe my sore limbs, but when I turn on the faucet, nothing happens. The pipes groan, and I twist the taps in frustration, but not a drop of water comes out. Great—no water.Sighing, I strip off the almost-dry, muddy dress from last night and change into whatever I could scavenge from the wreck of this house. The old, worn t-shirt clings to my skin and the faded leggings are threadbare in places. Slipping on the trainers with holes in them, I gather up the dress and shoes, feeling the weight of the past in every step as I throw them into the trash.I catch a glimpse of myself in

Dhalia POVThe bathroom is a disaster. It looks like someone used it as a kennel for a wild animal. It takes me half an hour, but I finally get it clean enough to remove the cloth from my face. The smell is gone, and the bathroom is almost unrecognisable. I don’t know who stayed here, but they were either deeply troubled or just plain cruel.“Well, shit,” the man says, leaning against the doorframe. "Sorry, no pun intended. It looks like you get to keep the job. Payment comes at the end of the week. No advances, no using the resources. If I catch you stealing, you’re gone without pay. If I catch you trying to shower or wash up, the same. You start every morning at ten.”He leaves, and I continue cleaning the rooms. None of them are as bad as the first, though one is covered in vomit. By the time I’m done, I’m exhausted, my muscles screaming in protest. But I did it. I kept the job.When I walk back to the front desk, the man shakes his head. “Don’t ask,” he says gruffly. “I don’t give

Accidentally Kidnapping The Don/Billiejo Priestley
Jax POVI didn’t sleep last night. We drove around the city for hours, checking every corner, every place she might have gone. But we didn’t find her. We returned to the house multiple times, hoping she’d somehow turn up, but nothing. The worst part is, I have no idea if she’s even in this city or if she’s gone back to the one where she used to live.We’ve sent out messages to everyone we know, asking them to let us know if they see her, but so far, there’s been no response. I’m scared as hell that she’s hurt, or worse, lying somewhere cold and alone. While I’ve been obsessing over finding Dhalia, Chase has been piecing together what really happened, but right now, I don’t care.I don’t care that Keeley and Liam worked together to set her up and ensure she met with him under the pretence of legal representation. She had no idea what was really going on. None of that matters. What matters is what she was already dealing with and how we completely failed her when she needed us most.Cha

Jax POVI return and hold the cash out to her.“There, cash. No trail. You’ll know I didn’t track you,” I say, praying she’ll take it. She shakes her head. “Why won’t you just take it and let us help?”“Help?” She stands and glares at me, the pain in her eyes making my heart ache. “You mean like the other day? How you helped humiliate me? How you helped give Keeley some epic fucking pictures to go with her story about me? If you want to help, leave and never come back.”“Just take the money,” I beg, desperate to know she at least has something to get by on.She snatches the money from my hands, but instead of pocketing it, she storms into the bathroom, throws the bills into the toilet, and flushes them away. “Fine, what do you want?” I yell, my voice echoing off the tile.“For you three to never fucking exist,” she says, her words hitting me like a punch to the gut. “For me to go back and have never met, I would actually fucking rather live with Carl or my stepdad than you three. I wa

Accidentally Kidnapping The Don/Billiejo Priestley
Dhalia POVThis week has been nothing short of painful. The day after they found me, the gifts started arriving—a stupid amount of them. Each one was from Jax, each one begging for my forgiveness. But I couldn’t. I sent every single one back, refusing to even look at them. By the third day, they stopped coming to beg in person, though Jax still sent gifts. By day five, Blake showed up, pleading with me to come back because Jax wasn’t coping.Each time they ask, it gets harder and harder to refuse. They even brought my things from their place, but I wanted to burn it all. Everything I owned, everything I had, basically came from them. When they kidnapped me, I had nothing. No matter how much I wanted to watch it all burn, I couldn’t bring myself to do it. Yesterday, they found out I was staying at the church’s shelter, but so far, none of them have shown up here. It’s a relief; I don’t fancy arguing with them in a church.But I’m worn out. Every time I see them, it hurts all over again

Accidentally Kidnapping The Don/Billiejo Priestley
Dhalia POV“Sometimes, I hate you,” I mutter.He laughs softly. “Just ask yourself, if you thought they were using you and planning to betray you, by telling the world your demons, what would you have done?”“I admit I would have run, locked them out,” I say, the truth settling uncomfortably in my chest. “But I wouldn’t have torn them down in public or ridiculed them.”“But you wouldn’t have spoken to them,” he points out gently. “So how can you hate them for acting and not speaking to you? If you want my advice, go see them. Don’t give in, don’t open yourself up completely. Don’t forgive them just yet. But listen. Give them time to explain, and then tell them how you felt—tell them everything. Then decide where to go from there. At least then, if you walk away, you’ll know you’re not going to regret it.”He smiles at me and leaves, giving me space to think. I really hate that man sometimes. We’ve talked a lot these past few days, especially after he saw the newspaper article and I en

Accidentally Kidnapping The Don/Billiejo Priestley
Chase POVI’ve barely spoken. Jax and Blake have been doing most of the talking. Me? I’ve sat quietly, listening and watching everything unfold. I accept that I don’t deserve her, and I don’t deserve for her to even listen to me. I caused all of this. At first, I refused to believe she would do it, but then I reverted to my usual self and didn’t want to look any deeper.Jax and Blake had no idea how far I planned to go that day, and since then, neither of them has really spoken to me. I don’t blame them. The fact is, I locked myself down as soon as I saw the pictures. I built up the walls she had worked so hard to break down and switched everything off.I didn’t see Jax or Blake. I didn’t see how they were hurting. I just bulldozed in and screwed up everything. Only this time, I was wrong. This time, I hurt them more than the threat would have.So, I can’t speak because I have no idea where the hell to start. Other than to defend Blake and Jax, which she doesn’t want, but that’s my in

Accidentally Kidnapping The Don/Billiejo Priestley
Chase POV“Liam, I didn’t know he worked for a newspaper. I didn’t know his boss was Wayne. He came in with a file about suing a company. The whole restaurant thing? That was because we didn’t have private space in the office.”“You didn’t tell us, though,” if she had, we would have known.“Shut up, Chase, let me speak,” she shouts, and I do as I’m fucking told because I already messed everything up once. “That night when Blake asked me where I had been, I was still a mess over what Keeley had said and done, along with Rose. I didn’t think. I couldn’t; my mind was fixed on that moment with Keeley, and I apologise for lying, but it wasn’t intentional.”At the time, I thought she was covering her back, lying to hide the truth. Knowing what happened that night, I quickly realised she was drowning and not thinking.“Keeley had kept ringing me. She asked if I was at the café we usually eat at, and I said I was on my way. When I got there, she wasn’t there. Liam was. He asked me to take hom
