Please don t. My wrists are all raw and it hurts my back, neck and
shoulders to have to sit that way. She tried very hard not to beg.
I can t trust you not to run.
Then tie me in the front and wrap something around my wrists to go
between my skin and the rope. Please.
She wanted to seem reasonable but not have a turn about of behavior
that would be unbelievable either. She had to gain control of the
situation.
He studied her. Fine. He got out some face cloths and put them
around the abrasions on her wrists and then binding her wrists in front.
The price was that she had to lie down beside him. It took every bit of her
will to survive not to scream in terror and revulsion as he put his face in
the nape of her neck and his breath skated across her skin.
Kyle, where are you?
We got it! Shane burst in through the door. He bought a cabin
about two hours east of here six weeks ago. I ve called the judge. It s still
in this county, and he s issued a warrant for arrest and a search
warrant. It s in an unincorporated area, no local police force so I m taking
my men out with me. We ll meet the cops from the nearest jurisdiction to
make a joint raid on the house.
I m coming, too, Kyle said and Shane started to disagree until he
saw the set of Kyle s mouth.

You may wait outside the police line if you promise not to get
involved. I mean it, Kyle. You can t interfere, you could get her or yourself
or one of my men killed if you don t obey me.
Kyle nodded.
I ll drive him, Matt said and Edward grabbed his keys and he and
Tom got into the back seat of Matt s Bronco. Soon they all tore out of the
driveway, heading east.
They drove at eighty miles an hour and made the two hour drive in
under an hour and a half. Shane and his officers met with the local
sheriff. Kyle watched, tense as his brother and his men all donned body
armor and began their silent creep through the woods. They d stopped
their vehicles about a mile away from the cabin so they could approach it
unseen.
Maggie was laying in bed, trying to think up a plan. Her muscles
ached from holding still but she didn t want any movement to wake him
up. The sun was rising and Maggie figured it was about seven or seven
thirty. She sighed without meaning to and Alex stirred.
His eyes opened and stared into hers with an eerie light. He brought
his hand up and cupped her breast and she screamed.
He hit her in the face. Shut up, you whore! Why are you acting so
afraid? It s not like you haven t fucked half the town already. Everyone
but me. You led me on and I can t have that. You re mine, Maggie. He
squeezed her breast hard and she bit back a whimper.
Get off me, you bastard. I don t want you, damn it! There are plenty
of other women in town. Date them and leave me alone! She looked
around the room for a weapon, anything she could use to stop him.

I don t think so, he snarled and ripped at her shirt, sending buttons
flying and exposing her bra and her bare stomach. I mean to have
what s mine.
No! NO, ALEX! Struggling and screaming, she turned her head and
saw a face in the window. He held his finger up to his lips, indicating she
should stay quiet about his presence.
Alex ripped at the fastenings of her pants and she kicked at him and
tried to raise her hands but her wrists were still bound and he had them
pinned with one hand, while the other was pulling at her clothes.
Get off me, you bastard! She screamed. She screamed and she
screamed and he slapped her again, so hard she tasted blood. He ripped
at the front of her bra and it came open, baring her breasts and she
began to weep. Stop it, damn it! I don t want this.
Doesn t matter, he muttered and unzipped his pants and started to
pull himself out.
Suddenly, the door slammed open and several large men in body
armor poured in pointing guns and screaming, GET DOWN! GET OFF
THE WOMAN NOW!
Shane stepped forward and yanked Alex off of her and threw him
across the room. Another officer came to her and gently pulled the sheet
