Protecting Her - Alexis Noelle Page 0,55
her driver. He sees me coming and his eyes widen in surprise.
“Hunter, what are you doing here?”
“Joe, I need to talk to her. I know that your job is to keep people out but I need to see her, please just—“
“Go.” I look at him in confusion. “Go in there. She hasn’t been the same since you two parted and I hate that father of hers. Try to bring back whatever part of her you can.”
Joe’s words have me even more worried for Sam than I was before. “Thanks.” I give him a nod before he slides the key card in and opens the door.
“Sam?” The suite is silent and I don’t want to piss her off by walking in on her getting dressed or something. As much as seeing her like that again would make me so fucking happy, I want this to go well. I call her name a few more times before hearing a loud crash and a scream. Everything that is going on right now is giving me a bad feeling.
I text Ryan, letting him know our location and that if he doesn’t hear from me in five, that I might need back-up. I race into the room the noise came from to find Sam on the floor. I run to her, dropping to my knees and checking for a pulse. Thank God she has one.
“Sam? What happened?” I stroke her face, trying to wake her up.
I hear a gun being cocked behind my head. “Don’t move, motherfucker.” I put my hands up as Sam starts to wake up. Her eyes go wide as she looks up at me. “Stand up and move over to the bed. Take that little bitch with you.”
I help Sam up and the way that she winces as she stands makes me want to kill whoever hurt her. I turn around and see none other than her father holding the gun. “I knew you were a lying piece of shit.”
“Yeah, you did. Too bad dumb ass here wouldn’t listen to you. All I had to do was say a few nice words to her and poof, she chose me over you. That and setting you up helped some too.” He smiles at me.
“What the fuck do you mean?” My anger is building.
“He means that we made it so my dimwit daughter would catch you in the act and leave you. Our plan never would have worked if you were still in the picture.” I look to the entrance of the bathroom and see Sam’s mother. Holy fuck.
“You coming here tonight is actually pretty perfect. We weren’t planning on killing her for a few more weeks but everyone loves a Romeo and Juliet story.” Her mother walks over to where her father stands. The smile on her face shows that she is proud of herself, sick fuck. A chill of fear runs through my body, not for myself but for her. What if I fail? What if I can’t protect her like I promised her I would?
“What the hell is wrong with the two of you?” Sam clings to me from behind and I can feel her body shaking. “This is your daughter. You should love her and treat her like she is the most important thing in the world to you. Instead, you make her life hell and then scheme to, what? Kill her for money?”
“Don’t make it sound so easy, dear. Convincing that waitress to spike your drink and finding a girl who would willingly sleep with you, was no easy task. Unfortunately, since you ruined the stalker plan, we had to take drastic measures.” I hear Sam take a quick breath, in what I can only assume is shock. I fucking knew it. I knew there was no way I would have ever done that to her. These assholes think that they can just fuck with everyone’s life and it makes me sick. “It’s actually good that you came here. I had a feeling if we got rid of her you would have been a problem. I can’t tell you how entertaining it was to listen to your messages too. Sam, I love you. Sam, please talk to me. Sam, I’m not me without you. You are absolutely pathetic.” Sam’s hands grip my sides harder; I thought she had gotten the messages and never responded. Little did I know the she-devil was back and worse than ever. I have never wanted to punch a bitch in the face so
