Just For You, Sir (Doms of Decadence 1)

“Cece?” Holly asked her eyes widening.

“No.” Like he’d want anything to do with that spoiled brat. Turned out she had been driving under the influence. She could very easily have hit Jacey or another car and killed someone. No, he hadn’t wasted any time thinking about her.

Another reason why Jacey had no business out walking in the middle of the night. That was something he’d never allow if she were his.

“I’ve been thinking about Jacey, the other woman I met that night.”

“Oh,” Holly said, glancing up at Brax.

“I can’t stop thinking about her. I wish I knew she was all right.”

“Have you got any reason to suspect that she isn’t okay?” Brax asked, with a frown. Brax was a Dom as well, and he knew all about the driving need to protect someone smaller and more vulnerable than himself.

“I don’t know, just a feeling.”

“Maybe you should try and find her. Do you know her last name?” Holly asked.

He shook his head. “And the only address I have for her is a large apartment building.”

“Well, it’s a start, isn’t it?” Brax said. “And if you are thinking about her this much then you probably need to try and find her. For your peace of mind as much as anything else.”

“I think I’ve found her.”

Stephan Worthington sat up straight, gripping his phone tightly.

“What? Seriously?”

His stepbrother laughed. It was low, menacing sound. Stephan held back a shudder. Although Evan came in handy, particularly when Stephan had a job he didn’t want to get his hands dirty with, he could never fully trust him. There was something wrong with Evan.

When they were young, pet rabbits and dogs had started to go missing in their neighborhood. Stephan knew it had something to do with Evan, although his father had never suspected his stepson as the culprit. Evan’s mother, Stephan’s stepmother, might have known, but she would never accuse her precious son of doing anything wrong.

As they’d grown older, Stephan had found ways to use Evan’s lack of a conscience to his advantage, but he always figured there would come a time when he would have to do something about Evan.

Something permanent.

“How did you find her?”

“It was easy. Stupid bitch got her picture in the paper. I’ve had my team on the lookout across the country. Two weeks ago, she was in a newspaper in Austin, Texas.”

“What? Why was she in the news?”

She wouldn’t dare go to the press about him, would she? She had to know that would be a death sentence.

“Oh, she was being a Good Samaritan. She happened to be one of the first people on the scene when that stupid bitch, Cece, had a car accident.”

“Wait, you said that was two weeks ago, she could have moved on by now. What took your team so long?”

Stephan wasn’t even sure who Evan’s team was. Didn’t want to know, quite frankly.

“It’s a big country, you know. We’ve had a lot of places to look.” Evan’s voice grew increasingly agitated.

“You’re right, I’m sorry,” Stephan soothed. “You did an excellent job. What now? Will you send someone out there?”

What the hell was she doing in Texas?

“Since you’re my brother, I’m going myself. Don’t worry. I’ll take care of that little problem.”
