TRAPPED (Breaking Free Book 2) Read Online Free
Author: C S Court
Hunter climbing from the window behind me, gun in hand ready to shoot. I could laugh at the desperate mug, but I have n’ t got time for this. I need to get my girl away from this, somewhere where i t’ s just me and her, and no one can come between us.
I sneer at the bastard ,“ You really gonna shoot me, when I’ m holding the one thing you came for? If I go down she goes down with me. Now back the fuck up or I throw her . ” Hunte r’ s eyes flare for a brief second, before a neutral unaffected mask comes across his face.
He deliberates for a second, before backing up to the window and waiting for me to go ahead and leave.
I know I look like a smug bastard, the smirk on my face is instantaneous knowing I not only have Connie, but I have just got another one over on him.
Spinning back around, I quickly and carefully manoeuvre myself down the ladder. Approaching the last few steps, a sharp sting hits me in the lower leg and I fall forward, Connie dropping to the grass beside me as I collapse. I hear the shouting, several male voices behind me, and I swallow down the defeat, making the decision to leave without Connie whilst I still can.
I ignore the pain, and run to the end of the garden, throwing myself over the small fence and jumping in the jeep I have waiting for me at the end.
I squeal away from the parking spot, cursing and punching the steering wheel as I go, out running the three heavily muscled men chasing me.
They may have her for now, but I’ ll be back. Conni e’ s mine, and I’ ll do whatever it takes till sh e’ s back in my arms!
CHAPTER FOUR
HUNTER:
“ Come on. Fuck man, wha t’ s taking so long ? ” Seriously, Connie is going through god only knows what, and here we are sat making phone calls and going around in circles.
“ Dude chill, nothing is going to happen to Connie, I’ m just chasing up a few leads and I am heading out . ” Harry throws my way, not even glancing up at me from his phone.
Does he think I’ m stupid? That I did n’ t pick up on the fact that he sai d“I” . Not a chance is he going to get her without me, I’ m going to get my girl and more fool the person who tries to stop me.
“ Yeah well, just hurry it up, I ca n’ t stand the thought of her being alone with that sick fuck. Are we taking your car or mine ? ” Harry finally looks my way, brows furrowed at my words. He must see the determination written quite clearly all over my face. He sighs, shakes his head and mutters something under his breath that sounds a lot lik e‘ stubborn fucker . ’ I’ ll live with that, I am a stubborn fucker, especially when it comes to my girl.
Harry throws his phone in to the pocket ofhis black combats, turns on his heel and starts talking over his shoulder as he strolls towards the lift in my apartment .“ I have a lead. The Jeep Dan was driving was spotted on CCTV heading towards Thamesmead, right around the corner from where his Mum resides. If yo u’ re coming you follow my lead, you do n’ t do anything stupid or rash and you stay back. If you ca n’ t follow my rules you do n’ t come along. Do we understand each other? I will not have you putting yourself or Connie at risk because of a split second decision. YOU STAY BEHIND ME ! ”
I begrudgingly nod, knowing Harry is only doing wha t’ s best and is trained in situations like these. And judging by the bollockinghe has just given me, he knows that if I get the chance I’ m taking Dan down, regardless of what he says.
We arrive outside a dilapidated terraced house, on a nasty looking estate. The windows have a brownish colour to them, and there is paint peeling from the walls. The garden is waist high, huge weeds taking over most of the grass. It shocks the hell out of me that someone chooses to live this way.
Groups of teens, wrapped in hoodies and baseball caps are congregating on the street several houses down, eyeing up the vehicles we have ridden in and glaring
