“Good afternoon, Magnus,” replied Benedict. “Apologies for not getting back to you sooner. I was out on a rather invigorating duck hunt. Have you been hunting recently?”
“No. I don’t duck hunt.”
“You and Luigi should come next time.”
“Go fuck yourself.”
“If you can’t afford to come hunting, it can be my treat. Rumor has it that the Locatelli finances have hit a bit of a rough patch.”
How the hell does he know that?“Our finances are fine.”
“Is that why you kidnapped one of Chastity’s friends and tried to shake me down for five million dollars earlier this morning?”
“Listen up, asshole. Chastity came to save her, so now I have her too. And if you don’t send me ten million dollars in the next hour, I’m gonna auction her body to the highest bidder.”
“Okay.”
Well that was easy.“Good. I’ll text you the account number.”
“Oh, no. You misunderstood. I meant that it was okay if you auction her. Chastity loves that sort of thing. I hope you gathered a nice group of suitors for her. She’ll be devastated if she goes for anything less than seven figures. In fact, if the winning bid is less than a million, make it show up as a million. I’ll cover the difference.”
Damn it!I’d known Chastity was a freak when she let me fuck her on stage during that banana party. But I hadn’t realized that Benedict was okay with her freakiness. “What kind of father are you?”
“The proudest.”
“So you’d just sit back and let me sell Chastity to the highest bidder?”
“Yes. Absolutely.”
“Then maybe I’ll just kill her instead.”
“Now, now, Magnus. I love a good kidnapping as much as the next guy, but threatening violence against my daughter is out of bounds. Unless you’d like me to send the Serbian to pay your sister a visit? I hear Idaho is lovely this time of year.”
How the fuck did he find out about my sister?“I don’t have a sister.”
“You do. But I suppose you won’t anymore if you harm a single hair on Chastity’s head. Do we have an understanding?”
I clenched my fists. “You’re a real dick, you know that?”
“Excellent. I really must be going, but first I’ll give you a bit of advice. Chastity gets what she wants.Always.So if you really have captured her, then it’s only because she let you do it.”
“Why would she let me capture her?”
“No idea. Anyway, give your boss my very best. And my duck hunting invitation still stands.” He blew a kiss into the phone and hung up.
I slammed the phone against the receiver.Shit, shit, shit!Why did Benedict have to be such an asshole? If he would have just paid me the ransom like a normal father, I could have called off the sex auction. And then Ash’s virginity would have been all mine.
I heard heels clicking down the hall and took a deep breath.
Everything was going to be fine.
I was going to fuck Maeve and make this never-ending erection go away. And then I could stop thinking about Ash. And the sex auction would make the $5 million we needed to stay in business. For a little while, at least.
Maeve poked her head around the corner of the hallway. “I’m not sure this fits me.”
“It was designed for a different model, so it’s fine if it doesn’t fit perfectly. It’s mainly about the color. Come on out.”
“Are you sure? It’s a little…inappropriate.”
