Chapter 94

Shackled (The Lord Series)

94. Stefan Kicking out Angel was probably not the wisest decision I have ever made, but seeing the rage in Reyes’s eyes when she said she hated us and the hurt on Alekos’s face when she revealed she was on birth control lets me know I made the right decision.

In time, they will realize it is best she is no longer part of our lives. Alekos and Reyes thinking she left on her own is for the best.

I am enjoying a glass of good wine and a steak at a restaurant while the cleaning lady is busy in the apartment when I receive an email from an unknown address with the subject “Alekos. For a moment, I contemplate deleting it, but thinking it is something important, I open it Alekos, if you are reading this, it means I am in danger. There are things I kept hidden from you, not because I don’t trust you, but because I not to say a word to anyone. But I ask you to fruct and come to my nid any last time.

There is a facility on the outskirts of the city. Terrible things happen there. I have been kidnapped, and in case I am taken there, I attached the address to the email along with other things about that place.

One more thing I stole something from Carlos-a pen drive. I don’t know what’s on it, but I hope it constans enough proof to take him down. Make him suffer.

I left the pen drive in the fish took in your company’s Jobby “Thank you for taking me in when I needed your help, and I want you to know that I don’t hate you or your blood brothers, and I did want a family with all of you. But I know if hitle too late, and you no longer wise ne in your lys Goodbye She was kidnapped? F uck! If Carlos is behind it... alt hits me. I not only kicked her out, but was a total as s when the asked for help.

She wanted a family with us...then why lie about it?

I could have at least made sure she was safe. Instead, I threw money at her when she asked for my help, humiliating her and making her try. I might not like her, but I don’t want her to end up in Carlos’s hands and be raped and killed, just like what happened with Emily.

Beyes and his father confirmed its I open the attached PDF and read the information she sent about the facility. There have been rumits about it for years, and when Bey existence, the Lords have been trying to locate it with their help, but the angels keep it hidden from un But if Angel is not lying and she kines how to get there.

My eyes run over the PDF Sh it! She knows more about it than Reyes or Ander I dial Cirro’s number. He is one of kin’s blood-brothers and one of the best hackers I know. If Angel is there, she is in great danger.

Hours later, with Cirro’s help, I enter the facility. The pen drive is in my work computer, as it has a special program that will scan it for viruses or any hidden programs. Once the program nuns its course, I will finally see if the pen drive was worth all the trouble Angel is putting me through. Especially since I haven’t told Alekos and Reyes the truth about her being kidnapped Lying to Alekos and Reyes is not something I particularly enjoy, but it is necessary Inside the facility, I meet a man-$14 is tattooed on his face. It is the first time we met, but I have seen photos of him in Rin’s house.

“You are He does not let me finish. Maybe he does not want to talk about his past. “What are you doing here?” he asks, his voice full of anger.

I don’t know if I should trust him, but he is one of the many Lord’s children who have disappeared in the past fifteen years. He may be willing to help me locate Angel. “I am looking for a woman. Help me, and in return, I will take you back to your family.

They are looking for you.”

He is silent for a few seconds. “I will help you only if you will give me a hand in destroying this place.”

It won’t be easy, but Cimo has an entire military arsenal in his van. “Deal.”
