The Unwanted Bride Of Atticus Fawn Chapter 27

“How can they possibly be missing?” I ask. How does anyone go missing from a yacht? We’ve never had an incident like that in the past. People don’t just fall out of a boat as big as that one.

“Griffin was the last person to see them on board.” He tells me. “We’re not sure what happened after he spoke with them, but they never made it to the island with the rest of us. Chances are they fell off the boat, but none of us know how it happened.”

Fell off the f*****g boat? Again, that didn’t just happen. Were they drinking or did something else happen?

I ran a hand through my wet hair; I was already not f*****g thinking right after Autumn literally just spread her legs and mesmerized me with the view of her beautiful and tempting body. I’m unsure if I can even walk with how much I wanted her. The fact that I couldn’t have her was torture and it was only about to get worse for me.

“Are you listening to me?” He demands. No, I wasn’t. I hadn’t heard a word he’d said. “We need to help Arthur with the search. It has already started, but they can’t search this island on their own, they will need us.”

I nod, I knew we had to help. But there was something I had to see about first.

“I have to get Autumn back to the house,” I tell him. “I can meet up with the others after.”

“She can come with us.” He offers. “We can’t waste any time. We’re not even sure that they’re still alive. Can you imagine the headlines if that happens?”

Yes I can, I knew how brutal the article headlines were when our family was concerned. They were always waiting for a new story concerning our lives.

But I was still not okay with Autumn joining us.
