"Now look at what you've done," Kade muttered, his voice deepening. He had no choice but to take this one with him.
"I just have to kidnap you now," Kade said, his grip tightening on her waist, digging into her stomach. She had discovered his identity.

"You don't have to kidnap me!" Lina stated, turning around in his arms.
Lina was met with his baffled features. He regarded her like she had lost her mind. Maybe, she did. Or maybe, she didn't. One way or another, she'd agree.
