The wrong kind of comfort

Chapter 10

Danger lurks, faces smirk

Noah rushed into the office at the drop in center. The screen door slamming behind him

Flynn looked up from the desk. "Noah"

"I came here as soon as I could, is everything all right, are the kids ok?" he asked referring to the three teen siblings that had arrived last night.

"Their fine, I'm sorry I didn't mean to have you rushing over in a panic, it's just" he picked up a letter "This came for you mate"

Noah took the letter and noticed the familiar writing scrawled messily across the envelope.

He sat down heavily tapping the enevlope nervously on the desk, briefly considering whether he should ring the police first or read it.

He turned to Flynn

"Do you think I should open it"?

Flynn shrugged "It 's really up to you mate"

Noah bit his lip for a moment before he decided.

What did it really matter as long as he let them know what was happening.

He tore into the envelope

Kit flicked through the channels on the TV. Even though she hated where she was, anything beat being cooped up in that small bedroom and at least she now had something to keep her occupied until the jerk got home.

Her foot tapped relentlessly against the coffee table where she had her feet propped. A few moments later a smile spread across her face as she heard the front door open, she had no idea what she was going to say to Josh, But in her mind she was stronger than him and her plan was to scare him as much as she could and get out of there tonight. She clenched her fists, even if it meant she had to bop him one she would He wasn't going to mess with Kit Hunter any longer.

Kit smiled as she heard a car door slam shut, good she could get this out with him now.

Josh smirked as he entered the room, his smirk even became more pompous if that were possible as Kit watched him pull out a control and punch in numbers as the door shut behind him. I really am in trouble Kit shook her head and pushed all fear out of her mind, I'm going to get our of here today, I am.

He spun the control in his hand before placing it in his pocket. Kit watched him carefully a plan suddenly hatching in her mind

"Hello"

He raised a brow and slowly made his way across the room, not quite sure about the wild look now in her eyes.

"What"?

He rolled his eyes when he caught sight of his liquor cabinet. His back now facing her

"Have you been drin…"

He let out a somewhat girlish scream as she jumped onto his back

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

"I'm sure she's fine Noah"

Noah rolled his eyes; the kidnapper had sent a cut out of Kit's favorite jacket.

If she knew about this, the person would be dead, well more likely be in more trouble than Kit, which was why he was worried, about Kit that is. He couldn't help but get the image of Kit tied up out of his mind.

Officer Michaels who has just arrived moments earlier said the three words that Noah had been dying to hear since Kit went missing

"We've found something"

Noah got to his feet

"Do you know anyone named Jackie"?

Noah's eyes widened as he looked at the business sticker on the back of the envelope

A smirking face suddenly coming to his mind

Josh.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Josh wrapped his arm with a bandage. She may be a girl, but Josh would give her this she was strong. She had practically torn his arm open while trying to get the control out of his pocket; he sucked in a breath as a sting shot through his arm. It wasn't enough that he had won the battle; his eyes caught sight of the mahogany cabinet

No it definitely wasn't.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Kit's head beat against the door rhythmically. She fought the urge of throwing up. She eyed the jug menacingly, cursing under her breath as her stomach churned, somehow wanting more.

That wasn't just water

The tall glass jug shined brightly in front of her, somewhat beckoning to Kit.

She closed her eyes tightly trying to fight away the thought of the jug, trying to think of anything but it. .

Noah's face suddenly flashed before hers and Kit placed her head on her knees allowing a choked to escape.

This was too much.
