Having Faith (Maclean Mafia Men 2)

“You don’t understand. Every day that passes, my mother is getting hurt, and my sister is terrified.”

“I’ll talk to my family tomorrow morning. In the meantime, Blake will keep you in his rooms.”

“Absolutely not.” Hope crossed her arms over her chest.

Graham turned to Blake with a grin. “It’s up to you how you deal with her.”

Blake turned to her. “You can come quietly with me, or I truss you up and carry you where I want you.”

“Just try it, fucker.”

Graham watched Blake pin her down, rip off some of her long skirt, tie her hands and feet, and put a gag in her mouth when she continued to scream.

Blake pulled her out of the car, threw her over his shoulder, and walked to their limo.

Graham caught sight of one of the guards fighting to get to her and guessed he was helping them with the girl.

Graham held his hand up. “I want to talk to that one over here.”

Two of his guys dragged him over and then held him in front of him.

“Which one are you, Mateo or Trent?” Graham could tell he caught the guy off guard.

“Mateo.”

Graham nodded. “Good. I didn’t think you two were going to let her go without a fight. So, what was your plan?”

“We knew you’d be stopping us.”

“How?” Graham asked.

“Alastair. So, I brought guys who were loyal to me and the girls.”

“How many are against the Moretti in charge?”

“Pretty much all of them. We’ve all hated the way he’s treated the women, especially Aria over the years."

“That’s the mom?” Graham asked.

“Yes.”

“We’re going to put you in the trunk of your car, but I want you to text someone to come and get you.”

“Sir, you’re going to need to rough us up to make it look real,” Mateo said.

Graham grinned. “I’m sure my men would enjoy that. I have to get her home.”

“You’re not going to hurt her, right?” Mateo asked.

“No. She’s being a little difficult, so we’ve had to tie her. But at no time will she be harmed in our house. I can’t say Blake won’t piss her off a lot, but it seems like she can handle it.”

Mateo grinned. “All the girls are feisty. The two younger ones, especially because Faith has been around longer and being the eldest, she got the most abuse.”

Graham scowled. He didn’t like the sound of that. “She’s being taken care of.”

“You’re the husband?” Mateo asked.

Graham’s eyebrows rose. “You know an awful lot. Where are you getting your information?”

“Alastair. He only trusts me because we have a friend in common who vouches for us both.”

Graham nodded. “Good enough for me. We’ll see you soon.”

Mateo nodded and walked back over to the men he brought with him and talked, and Graham turned to Nic. “Rough them up a bit. Make it look bad but try not to hurt them too much. Then when you’re done having fun, put them into the trunk of their car. Let the one I talked to send a text before you stuff him in.”

Nic grinned. “You got it. Do you want us to go back to watching the house?”

Graham nodded. “Yes. Until we get all the women out, they are in danger.”

“Yes, sir.”

Nic closed the door after Graham climbed into the back of his car. He was surprised to see Hope on Blake’s lap and him talking quietly to her. Graham’s eyebrows rose. Later, he’d have to ask his brother what he said to calm her down.

It had taken longer than he thought to save the woman, but he was glad they had the chance before she’d gotten hurt. He let Blake take her to his suite when they got home.

Graham and his family had surmised that Faith’s father would make a move, so they had their men watching Faith’s house. He wasn’t shocked when they called him to tell him about a car leaving the Moretti estate.

He gave the order to stop it, and they did a few miles away, so they weren’t seen. Someone inside the house had warned them one of the sisters was being taken to Rizzo, so they had been ready.

The Moretti guards didn’t put up much of a fight, maybe because they were outgunned, or more likely, they didn’t want to take the young woman to be tortured. His men had taken the girl and then put the men in the trunk of the car. Graham made sure a call was made to their informant in the Moretti household about them, so they’d be found.
