Free Caught: In a Case by C.M. Steele Page B

cool. If people are willing to create this whole scheme to get what they want, what would they do if they couldn’t get to their prize?
    “Elizabeth look at these emails. They were the ones I told you about earlier.”
    The tears started to build in her eyes and that is why I didn’t want her in this mess. I didn’t like her tears and it was those close to her that are the conspirators.
    “It’s my step-mother. She knows my email information. When I was signing up for schools she was helping me and had emailed the schools with the information they were looking for and I gave her my access to my account. I didn’t think it was a big deal because I had nothing to hide. And this one is my father’s.”
    She dropped the papers on the floor. I picked her up and carried her to the chair behind my desk. “Baby I know it looks bad but maybe it’s not what it seems.” I knew it was exactly what it seems, her father was alive after he was supposedly missing and any money the fucker was in Henderson.
    “Guys I think this is enough for tonight I am going to get some things handled at work the next few days. My girl and I will be flying out to see my parents and then we will attack whoever is behind this. I want more information and a strategy before I start taking these pieces of shit out. Now if you will meet me in the morning at my office say around ten we can get some plans together and see if we can find some more players. Come on babe, it’s time for bed.”
    I left my guys in the office. Mike and Milo stayed on the property and Duke lived near the office. They knew that I didn’t want to talk shop in front of my girl. I got to get a bell on her ass. I am glad she didn’t hear anything else. I have no idea what else the guys had but it could wait until morning. My girl and I will stopping by Vegas, perfect.
    “Jackson, why? Why would he do this to me?”
    “Baby, I don’t know. Look at me . You are precious to me and my family will love you.”
    “But why doesn’t my own family? My mom left me and my dad stopped showing any interest in me when he met her until he saw I had a boyfriend. Then I had him back for a moment before he disappeared or rather left me.” I hugged my girl tight while she held on me for dear life.
    “Lizzy my sweet, you do not have to think about them anymore. I am the only family you will need. I will care and love you forever my girl and this one too.” I put my hand to her tummy. There was no guarantee that we had made a little one but it made her smile. She needed to be loved. I took her down on the bed and made slow passionate love to my woman. I think I put a baby in her tonight. My love grew every day for this beautiful woman who I thought had it all and now realized it was all on the surface. I needed to show her she was so unbelievably important to me. How was I supposed to do it when she had lived a lifetime of what was supposed to be unconditional love only to find out she never really had it.
    We fell asleep right after our pleasure was sated. Morning came upon us quickly. I didn’t want her to go to school today but I felt something would be up and the guys had met me in my personal office at six to say I should let her go with Milo to school and see if anything happens and to get her shit. I was against it but I realized they were after me and not her. They had threatened my life not hers but I knew it was a tactic to get her to comply. They would probably contact her when I was not around. That would work to our advantage in figuring out their purpose for singling out me for a scam. I don’t even know what they want. Is it money? Power? I am new here and although I have a name that is big in the legal and aristocratic world I wasn’t their only interest. They had been researching me before I got to Seattle.
    The file had all high profile people with their pictures in it. The fact that the bimbo was trying to entice me made me think this would be a blackmail scandal
