I’m missing Friday,” I promised. “We get to see our boy again.”
Chapter 8

It was almost too easy.
Just one little hint called in to the bureau and Josh was ready to travel to another city with hopes of finding even the smallest lead to me.
And here I was, inside his home.
Granted, I had to wait for Mike and that whore Audrey to sneak out, but here I was, only a few feet separating me from the one person who could help me seek my revenge.
Dark, silky hair covered the light-colored pillow. The soft purr of her breath was like a quiet melody that ran through my body, settling straight in my dick.
She was fucking breathtaking.
Breaking her in was going to be my greatest pleasure. And it was only a matter of time until she became mine.
It was this easy. I knew that now.
Reaching out, I touched the dark strands of her hair, allowing them to tickle my palm.
Maybe I won’t sell her.
I gently pulled away the sheet as the material fell beneath her breast. So full and mouthwatering.
I would definitely rethink that idea.
Gabriella Shannon could bring me some serious money from the right market, but for once my desire may outweigh my hunger for money.
Torturing her may actually be worth the loss.
And the pain in Josh’s eyes when he gains knowledge of the things I am doing to her will be the best feat.
Only a few months now, my beauty, and you’ll be mine.

“Have you seen my necklace?” I asked Brook as I rushed out from the bedroom in a panic.
“Slow down, momma,” she held out her hands, placing one on each of my shoulders. “Take a breath and chill before Josh kills us all for allowing you to get all worked up.”
Mike and Audrey were sitting at the snack bar, both staring at me with a puzzled look on their faces.
“Seriously, Brooklynn.” I reached up and placed my hand on my chest, just where my necklace would normally lie. “My necklace from Josh. The one he had inscribed. It’s gone.”
“Where did you have it last?” Audrey was the one to ask as she stood and began to move in my direction.
“I put it in the same place I always do. The top drawer of my jewelry box. Nothing else goes in that drawer but that necklace.” I took in a deep breath. “I took it off and placed it in that same drawer before I took a shower last night. Then I crawled into bed, and this morning I went to put it on, but it’s gone.”
Audrey walked past me and I followed closely behind. I stood in the doorway as she checked my jewelry box and the area around it. I found myself hoping this was just one of those pregnancy brain malfunctions and maybe I had placed it in the second drawer instead of the first. But no such luck.
“Honey, I don’t see it anywhere,” she said, and I felt my stomach tense.
I loved that necklace. It was one of the first things Josh bought me after he proposed.
Mon Amour, Mon Coeur est tien.
My Love, my heart is yours.
And on the other side was the date we met. It was the sweetest gesture, and after thinking I had forever lost him, it meant the world to me.
I was in a panic at the thought of losing it.
“But it was there,” I said as I sat down on the end of my bed. “I know it was.”
“We’ll find it,” Brooklynn said as she sat on one side of me and Audrey sat down on the other side.
As I allowed my gaze to wander over the room, it landed on my desk in the corner. Something was missing. It didn’t come to me right away, but when it did my heart sank. “Our picture’s gone,” I whispered.
“What picture?” Brooklynn asked.
“The one of the three of us, from Christmas,” I replied. “It was right there. It’s been there for months, and now it’s gone.”
It was Mike who spoke next as he knelt down in front of me. “Gabby, are you sure it was there and that your necklace was in the top drawer?” I nodded my head, because there was absolutely no
