Luca passeshis bottom lip like a wolf “Now”

Fuck

I have to get out

No matter what

I have to run

So I wait until we’re inside the big hall and then say, “I have to pee”

Anne sighs “Really?”

I nod when she looks my way

“Fine” She waves it off “Luca, go with her while Lex and I check in the bags”

Luca rolls his eyes but then grabs ing from my shoulders, so no one here knows my wrists are shackled But people still stare And it makes him walk more briskly than ever

He shovesthe door behind us

I stare at him wide-eyed “I need to pee”

“Do it then”

“Well, I’,” I reply

“I’” He crosses his arms “So do whatever you want”

My stomach twists so much I feel like I’m about to puke I have no plan This was the plan What am I supposed to do now?

I go into a stall and close the door, but he can still peer underneath it, and it makes me want to freak out But there’s a ti out isn’t part of the plan right now

Think, Jill, think

I stare down at my pants

That’s when it hits me

I can’t pee without so down my pants

“I can’t get my pants off,” I say

Luca grumbles, and within seconds, he’s torn open the door His head blocks the only light in this bathroom while he towers above me and stares me down like he could rip out my heart or my clothes … or both

I s hard

“You want me to help you?” he asks

Fuck I have to push through now

I turn around and show him my wrists “Can you unlock these so I can at least pee?”

“No,” he responds

“I promise I won’t run,” I reply

“Of course you won’t,” he scoffs

“I can’t pee without my hands, Luca I’m not a man,” I say

When I glance over ue darts out to wet his lips Dammit “Lucky me”

I roll rade me some more?”

He tilts his head, and a devilish smirk appears on his face “Bunny … I’ll use any opportunity I can get”
