What the hell is he doing here?
When I crouch down next to him, I notice yellow daisy petals spread out all around him, and my breath catches in my throat.
I’m sure the police have already been called, so I work as fast as I can to take note of everything I can remember, using the flashlight on my phone. When the cops get here, they’ll rope off the area with crime scene tape, and I won’t be able to get near the body again.
In my examination, I notice that his mouth is slightly open. When I lean in closer, it looks like there’s something in there. Gently pushing down on his chin to open his mouth wider, I discover a balled-up piece of paper and retrieve it.
The Lord did not appointyou to cherish her garden.
You took what was not yours.
I have taken her where you cannot follow.
From,
Her Shepherd
Fuck,fuck, fuck.
Turning off the flashlight, I dial Luke.
He answers after one ring. “What’s up?”
My voice is tight. “Are you still at RHL?”
“Yeah. Why?”
“Get home now.” I look back at the note in my hand, and my heart stumbles over itself. “He took her.”
CHAPTER 47
LUKE
My dick glides in and out of Rory’s puckered hole as he’s bent over the side of the couch in my office. My hand reaches around and strokes his cock.
Rory groans, thrusting into my hand. “Fuck, Luke! That feels good.”
After a few strokes, Rory comes all over my hand and the couch. Pistoning my hips one more time, I come inside him.
We collapse together in a heap over the arm of the couch.
“Shit, Luke. You’re going to kill me,” Rory teases.
“Me? You’re the one who came into my office and started sucking my dick,” I accuse.
Sliding onto the couch all the way, we laugh, and Rory peppers my chest with kisses.
My phone vibrates on the coffee table. I read Hunter’s name and snatch it, sitting upright. “What’s up?”
“Is that Hunter?” Rory questions, and I not my head.
Hunter’s tone is grave. “Are you still at RHL?”
My brows drop, a wrinkle forming between them. “Yeah, why?”
“Get to the penthouse now. He took her.” Hunter ends the call.
I pull the phone away from my ear and stare at it, confused.
