My Boss Trapped Me When He Found Out I Was Pregnant — I Ended Up Running His Empire
Part 3
Megan had the resignation letter in her trench coat pocket.
The edges were already damp from her sweating fingers, but the thick paper was her only lifeline.
It was a simple document, yet to Megan, it represented a desperate bid for her life.
Quitting the organization wasn’t a real option, especially not when carrying the child of the city’s most dangerous crime boss.
She had convinced herself she could pack a suitcase and vanish into the sprawling anonymity of the midwest without a trace.
That belief proved to be a fatal miscalculation.
Earlier that morning, a pregnancy test had rested on the bathroom sink, glaring up at her with two undeniable pink lines.
She had gazed at the result until the room spun, nausea rolling through her empty stomach.
Tears were reserved for people who had a way out, rather than those entrenched in the daily administration of a ruthless criminal enterprise.
Her hands had seized the cold porcelain edge of the basin to steady herself.
She had quickly discarded the evidence, hiding it under a pile of wet paper towels in the garbage.
The commute to the headquarters felt like marching toward an execution, the train car stuffed with shivering commuters.
Her hands remained buried deep in her pockets, clutching the envelope that held her fate.
From the street, the logistics company appeared to be just another legitimate business on the harbor front.
In reality, it served as the unassailable fortress of Dan’s sprawling operations.
She stepped through the front entrance a few minutes before nine.
Bypassing the main lobby, she rode the secure elevator to the executive level, her pulse hammering relentlessly.
The upper floor was perfectly climate-controlled and perpetually smelled of expensive leather and faint cologne.
She found the heavy oak door to Dan’s office cracked open slightly.
A low, steady voice drifted out as he conducted business over the phone.
Silence from Dan was far more terrifying than screaming, usually meaning someone was about to disappear permanently.
She slowly entered the room and saw him staring out the large windows at the gray water below.
His tailored charcoal suit emphasized the intimidating breadth of his shoulders.
He dropped the phone onto his massive desk and ended the call without even glancing her way.
Dan possessed a face carved from granite, defined by harsh lines and eyes as gray as bruised storm clouds.
A profound exhaustion seemed to weigh on him lately, ever since the assassination of his father six months prior.
He had been forced to take the reins of the entire syndicate, and that crushing grief had caused them to break their own rules for a single night.
Nearly three months ago, a locked door and half a bottle of liquor had led to a lapse in judgment that fundamentally altered their relationship.
She vividly recalled the bruising intensity of his touch and the desperate way he had sought solace in her.
Neither of them had brought it up again.
Megan approached the desk and withdrew the envelope.
Placing it on the leather blotter felt like dropping a lead weight.
Dan finally looked down at the paper, ignoring it, and shifted his gaze back to her face.
The silence grew suffocating, broken only by a distant tugboat sounding its horn across the water.
She stated firmly that she was resigning and leaving immediately.
He stepped away from the glass, moving with a fluid, predatory grace to stand directly across from her.
He picked up her letter, folding it repeatedly until it was nothing more than a tiny, compressed square of paper.
He casually tossed it into the brass trash bin.
Panic flared in her chest as she insisted she just wanted a normal, quiet life.
A dark, humorless laugh escaped him as he questioned whether federal agents had offered her immunity.
She retreated a step, her breathing erratic, repeating that she simply needed out.
He rounded the desk, invading her personal space until his signature scent enveloped her completely.
He stated unequivocally that her employment—and her presence—would only end when he allowed it.
Megan remained frozen in place, her nails digging painfully into her own palms.
She managed to hide her condition for another three weeks against all odds.
She learned to suppress her nausea, hoarding plain crackers in her pockets and avoiding the coffee machine at all costs.
Her tailored clothing began to pull tight across her lower abdomen, forcing her to wear oversized sweaters to conceal the slight rounding.
The facade finally crumbled during a chaotic Tuesday afternoon when border patrol intercepted a shipment of illegal weapons.
Dan had been pacing relentlessly for two hours, barking threats into an untraceable phone.
The air in the office was thick with the suffocating smoke of a discarded cigar and the sharp tang of his fury.
When he struck a match to relight the cigar, the sudden burst of sulfur hit Megan’s sensitive stomach like a physical blow.
Intense nausea surged so quickly she didn’t even have a chance to excuse herself.
She dropped a stack of shipping manifests, scattering white paper across the floor, and ran for the door.
She burst into Dan’s private executive washroom, dropping to her knees before the toilet and retching violently.
The cold floor tiles bit into her skin as she gasped for breath, tears spilling over her cheeks.
Heavy footsteps echoed behind her.
Dan appeared in the doorway, his previous anger replaced by a chilling, absolute stillness.
He walked to the sink, dampened a small towel with cold water, and offered it to her.
Megan accepted it, pressing the cool cloth to her neck, staring blankly at the drain while begging him to let her go home.
He reached down, his calloused fingers wrapping around her chin to force her gaze up to meet his.
His dark eyes scanned her face, dissecting her terror and the undeniable truth she was trying to hide.
His gaze briefly dropped to the unnatural bulk hidden beneath her heavy sweater before snapping back to her eyes.
He pieced it together instantly, the cold calculation in his expression melting into pure, terrifying possessiveness.
The temperature in the room plummeted as he demanded to know how far along she was.
His voice had dropped to a smooth, lethal whisper.
Lying was useless, as his private doctors would quickly uncover the truth regardless of what she said.
She confessed it had been eleven weeks.
He didn’t react physically, simply doing the mental math and arriving at the inevitable conclusion.
He stepped backward, running a hand through his dark hair as a ragged exhale escaped his lungs.
He realized her sudden resignation and oversized clothes were part of a desperate plan to take his child and run.
Megan pushed herself up from the floor, a surge of protective adrenaline overriding her ingrained fear.
She demanded to know if he honestly believed she wanted to raise a child in a world built on blood and extortion.
A muscle twitched in his jaw, his expression hardening.
She gestured toward his office, her voice cracking as she told him she was trying to save her baby from his violent life.
Dan closed the distance between them with a slow, deliberate step.
He reached out, pressing his palm flat against the heavy knit of her sweater.
She gasped at the contact, feeling the warm, heavy weight of his protective claim.
He told her she was carrying his blood, his voice a deep rumble that vibrated through her core.
She pleaded with him, promising to disappear and never reveal his identity to anyone.
He silenced her immediately, his tone leaving absolutely no room for debate.
He picked up his jacket, casually informing her that her days of working and living in her tiny apartment were over.
Panic choked her as she reminded him she was a human being, not his personal property.
He corrected her, stating that she was the mother of his child.
He declared she was staying, and that the baby belonged to him.
The relocation process was swift and brutal, leaving her no time to argue or process the change.
Megan never saw her apartment again.
While she sat numbly in the back of an armored SUV, his enforcers packed up her entire existence.
A few hours later, she found herself standing in the grand foyer of his heavily fortified estate on Long Island.
It felt less like a home and more like an architectural prison.
The property was surrounded by high walls, wrought-iron gates, and armed guards patrolling the grounds.
Dan led her up the sweeping marble staircase in silence, radiating a tense energy that set her on edge.
He pushed open a set of double doors in the east wing, informing her that these were her new quarters.
The massive bedroom dwarfed her old apartment, centered around a king-sized bed draped in silk.
He remained in the hallway, watching her as he tossed a new, encrypted phone onto the mattress.
The device felt like a digital shackle, pre-programmed with only his number and the estate staff.
He informed her that his private physician would arrive in the morning to establish her medical care.
Megan wrapped her arms around her waist, asking with a spark of defiance if she was officially a prisoner.
His jaw clenched, his eyes darkening as he brought up the brutal assassination of his father.
He swallowed hard, the ruthless mask slipping briefly to reveal a deeply terrified man underneath.
He explained that if his enemies discovered she was carrying his child, they would torture her just to make him watch.
He gently brushed his thumb along her cheekbone, the tender touch making her breath catch in her throat.
He whispered that he wasn’t keeping her here as a punishment, but simply to keep her alive.
He dropped his hand, turned around, and walked away before she could formulate a response.
The heavy doors clicked shut behind him, though the lock never actually turned.
He didn’t need to lock her in; the absolute terror he had instilled in her was far more effective than any deadbolt.
The harsh reality of her confinement set in the following morning when Dr. Craig arrived with an ultrasound machine.
Dan stood silently in the corner of the room, his arms crossed as he stared intently at the small monitor.
When the rapid, rhythmic thud of the heartbeat filled the room, Dan’s entire posture shifted.
For a brief, fleeting moment, he wasn’t the ruthless head of a criminal syndicate.
He was simply a father listening to the rapid heartbeat of his unborn son for the very first time.
Dr. Craig packed his equipment, handed over a list of strict instructions, and quietly exited the room.
Dan lingered near the bed, picking up the printed ultrasound image and studying it in silence.
He instructed her to eat the breakfast prepared by the chef, his voice stripped of all emotion.
Megan muttered a dismissal, adjusting her clothes to cover her stomach.
Dan looked at her directly, stating that they would dine together at seven o’clock sharp.
It was clearly a summons rather than an invitation.
As he walked out, Megan fully grasped the horrifying reality of her new existence.
The fortified walls were intimidating, but the true threat was the man himself.
He was embedding himself into every aspect of her life, operating as both her captor and the father of her child.
He intended to force her dependence, dictating her meals and monitoring her every move.
She walked to the window, watching an armed guard pace the manicured lawns below.
She pressed her hand against the bulletproof glass, fully aware of her situation.
She was a bird trapped in a gilded cage, and the man who held the key had no intention of ever letting her fly.
Dinner at his estate was an exercise in psychological endurance.
The dining room was a cavernous space, anchored by a dark oak table long enough to seat twenty.
Dan sat at the head, and he refused to let her sit at the opposite end, wanting her close enough to see.
He wanted her close enough to monitor how much she ate, close enough to ensure the cage was still holding.
Week four of her captivity bled into week five, and the physical changes of her pregnancy were becoming undeniable.
Her waistline had vanished, replaced by a firm, rounded curve that made her tailored clothes obsolete.
Dan’s tailor had been brought in to measure her for a new wardrobe, and Megan had stood frozen while the man wrapped a tape measure around her expanding belly.
Her face burned with a mixture of humiliation and a profound loss of autonomy.
Tonight, the silence in the dining room was suffocating, broken only by the clinking of heavy silver on bone china.
Megan stared at her plate, the roasted pheasant and root vegetables tasting like ash.
Dan told her she needed to eat the protein, his eyes focused on slicing his meat with surgical precision.
Megan dropped her fork, letting it clatter loudly against the rim of the plate.
She asked him if he ever got tired of giving orders, or if it just bled into his personal life so much he didn’t know the difference anymore.
Dan paused, setting his knife down and resting his forearms on the edge of the table.
He turned his head slowly to look at her, his bruised cloud eyes completely unreadable.
He stated that his personal life and his business were the same thing, and she knew that.
Megan shot back, frustration boiling over as she reminded him she was sitting in a prison.
She hadn’t spoken to another human being who wasn’t on his payroll in over a month.
She was carrying a baby, and the only father it had was a man who solved his problems with a gun.
She expected him to yell, almost wanted him to, because a burst of anger would be human.
Instead, Dan picked up his wine glass, swirling the dark red liquid and staring at the vortex it created.
He told her that Tyler had mentioned she tried to walk out the front gates that day.
Megan’s jaw tightened, recalling the wall of muscle who had gently but firmly blocked her path when she decided to test the perimeter.
She insisted she just wanted fresh air that didn’t belong to him.
Dan took a slow sip of his wine, setting the glass down and leaning toward her.
The scent of sandalwood and gun oil drifted over the table.
He asked her softly if she knew what happened to the men who intercepted his shipment at the border last month.
Megan froze, the abrupt subject change feeling like stepping off a curb in the dark.
Dan’s voice dropped to a conversational murmur that chilled her to the bone.
He explained he had found out who tipped them off, a lieutenant in a rival crew.
He didn’t send men to handle it; he went himself, because in his world, respect was born from fear, and fear required proof.
He reached out his long fingers, wrapping around her wrist in a grip that was loose but inescapable.
He admitted he was a violent man, that he didn’t deny or apologize for it, because it was the only reason he was alive.
It was the only reason she and that baby were currently breathing.
His thumb brushed over her racing pulse as he told her that out there, she was leverage, but in here, she was untouchable.
He ordered her to eat her dinner and stop trying to walk out the gates.
He let go of her wrist and picked up his knife again.
Megan looked down at her plate, her vision blurring with hot, frustrated tears.
She picked up her fork, took a bite of the pheasant, chewed, swallowed, and stared at the empty wall across the room.
She hated him with an intensity that terrified her, mostly because she understood exactly why he was doing it.
The illusion of absolute safety shattered on a Tuesday at two in the morning.
Megan was awake, sitting in the bay window of her bedroom, wrapped in a thick cashmere blanket and watching the rain lash against the security glass.
Then she heard the engine.
It wasn’t the smooth purr of the usual security patrols.
It was the roaring, misfiring scream of an SUV being pushed well beyond its limits.
Tires squealed violently on the wet asphalt of the driveway below.
A black Escalade, its front bumper crumpled and one headlight entirely gone, skidded to a halt in front of the grand entrance.
The doors flew open, and Tyler and another guard dragged a man out of the backseat.
The man was practically dead weight, his arms slung over their shoulders.
Even through the sheets of driving rain, Megan recognized the dark charcoal suit.
Her heart slammed against her ribs, the breath leaving her lungs in a sharp rush.
She didn’t think; the self-preservation instinct that had kept her alive for three years evaporated.
She dropped the blanket, threw open her bedroom doors, and ran down the grand staircase.
She hit the marble foyer just as the heavy oak front doors burst open.
The smell hit her first—copper, wet wool, and ozone.
Tyler was panting, straining under Dan’s weight.
Dan’s head hung low, his dark hair plastered to his forehead with rain and sweat.
His white dress shirt was completely soaked through, plastered to his torso, the entire left side stained a brilliant, terrifying crimson.
Brian stepped through the door behind them, a gun in his hand, his eyes scanning the empty driveway before he kicked the door shut.
He barked an order to get Dan to the study and not to put him on the floor.
Dan ground out a command to call Dr. Craig, his voice a wet, ragged rasp.
They hauled Dan into the study, laying him flat on the massive leather sofa.
Megan followed, lingering in the doorway, entirely ignored by the panicked men.
Tyler ripped Dan’s ruined jacket off, and Dan let out a harsh, guttural sound of agony that made Megan’s stomach pitch.
Brian said they needed to stop the bleeding, his hands hovering over the wound, looking terrified because he was an executioner, not a medic.
Megan’s voice cut through the chaos, shockingly loud as she demanded towels.
The men spun to look at her.
She stepped into the room, ordering them to get clean towels and alcohol from the bar.
The terror was still there, but her administrative brain had completely taken over.
Brian grabbed a bottle of high-proof vodka from the wet bar, and Tyler dumped a stack of white hand towels on the coffee table.
Megan walked to the couch.
Dan’s eyes were half-closed, glassy with pain and blood loss, and he looked up at her, his lips moving without sound.
She told him not to try to talk, her voice surprisingly steady.
She unbuttoned the ruined bottom half of his shirt, exposing his pale, heavily muscled abdomen.
The wound was ugly, a jagged tear just below his lower left rib, pulsing with dark blood in a steady, terrifying rhythm.
She ordered Brian to pour the alcohol on her hands, and he didn’t argue.
She took the folded towel and pressed it directly, brutally into the wound.
Dan roared, his back arching off the sofa, his hands flying up to grab her wrists to tear her away.
His grip was bone-crushing.
Megan yelled at Tyler to hold him down, and the guard pinned Dan’s shoulders to the leather.
She leaned her weight into her hands, pressing down on the bleeding tear, and ordered Dan to look at her.
His head thrashed, his eyes wild like a trapped animal, until they locked onto hers.
She commanded him to breathe, telling him she had to hold it or he would bleed out before Craig arrived.
Dan stared at her, the violent struggle slowly draining out of his limbs.
His chest heaved in short, harsh pants.
He didn’t let go of her wrists, but the grip changed from a desperate attempt to stop the pain to a grounding anchor.
He was holding onto her to stay conscious.
They stayed like that for an eternity, the study silent except for the harsh rasp of Dan’s breathing and the driving rain.
Megan’s arms burned, her knees ached from kneeling on the hardwood floor.
She watched the blood slowly soak through the thick white towel, blooming outward like a dark, macabre flower.
She felt the heavy, frantic beat of his heart through his skin, matching the terrified rhythm of her own.
He wasn’t a monster right now, not a kingpin, just a man bleeding on a couch, holding onto the mother of his child as if she were his only tether to the earth.
“I’ve got you,” she whispered, the words slipping out before she could stop them.
Dan didn’t speak.
He just watched her face until his eyes finally rolled back and he passed out.
The smell of bleach and iron lingered in the study for two days.
Dr. Craig had arrived, stitched the wound—a glancing blow from a high-caliber round that miraculously missed vital organs—and pumped Dan full of antibiotics and painkillers.
Dan refused to be moved to a hospital or even his bedroom.
He stayed on the leather sofa, heavily guarded, conducting a vicious internal investigation from a supine position.
When they finally unlocked the door on Thursday evening, Megan didn’t run.
She walked down the stairs slowly, feeling the heavy, exhausted quiet that had replaced the usual invisible tension wire in the house.
She pushed open the doors to the study.
The room was dim, lit only by a brass desk lamp.
Dan was sitting up on the couch, looking terrible with shallow skin and deep shadows carved under his eyes.
The dangerous, tailored don of the syndicate was entirely absent.
He was staring into the unlit fireplace, a glass of water resting on his thigh.
He didn’t turn his head when he told her that Craig said she was the one who stopped the bleeding.
Megan stopped in the center of the room, folding her arms over her chest, highly conscious of the heavy swell of her stomach.
She told him he was ruining the leather.
A faint ghost of a smile touched the corner of his mouth before vanishing instantly.
He thanked her, the gratitude sounding foreign on his tongue.
She asked who did it, and he explained it was a crew from the Bronx who thought the seized borders meant he was weak.
He took a slow breath, wincing slightly as the stitches pulled, and stated they were no longer a problem.
Megan shuddered, the clinical way he spoke of death always terrifying her, but looking at the pale injured man, the terror was eclipsed by exhaustion.
She walked over to the armchair opposite the sofa and sat down.
She looked at him and pointed out that he almost died.
Dan turned his head, the cold mask completely gone, leaving a stark, raw vulnerability that made her breath catch.
He admitted he did.
Megan uncrossed her arms, resting her hands on her stomach as the baby shifted in a slow, rolling movement.
She asked him what happened to her and his child if someone put a bullet an inch to the right.
Dan’s eyes fell to her hands, staring at her stomach for a long, agonizing minute.
He explained his orders: if he fell, she would be taken to a private airstrip, to a house in Switzerland with untraceable accounts and new passports.
The syndicate would die with him.
Megan stared at him, realizing he had planned all that the day after he found out she was pregnant.
He slowly pushed himself forward, groaning as he sat on the edge of the sofa, leaning his elbows on his knees.
He told her about the day his father was killed, how the blood sprayed across his face, and how he realized the ultimate cruelty of his world.
He looked up, his eyes bright with unspoken grief.
He told her the cruelty wasn’t the violence, but that you couldn’t love anything without painting a target on its back.
He admitted he locked her in the house because he thought he could control the variables.
But lying on that asphalt, bleeding out in the rain, the only thing he could think about was leaving his child to be hunted.
He stood up slowly, moving stiffly against the pain, and walked the short distance between them.
He painfully lowered himself onto one knee in front of her armchair.
The fearsome mafia boss brought entirely low.
He reached out, his hands hovering over her swollen stomach just like they had in the office bathroom.
This time, he laid both hands gently, reverently against her.
Megan didn’t flinch away.
Underneath his right palm, the baby kicked—a sharp, distinct thump against the wall of her stomach.
Dan gasped, a look of absolute, shattered wonder crossing his face.
He whispered, asking if she felt it.
Megan smiled softly, telling him the stress had probably woken him up.
Dan didn’t move his hands, just stayed kneeling on the rug, feeling the life moving beneath his palms.
The possessiveness that had defined their relationship melted away, replaced by a quiet, shared reverence.
He vowed he would not let them touch her, his voice thick with emotion.
It wasn’t an order; it was a promise sworn on the blood he bled.
He swore he would burn the entire city to the bedrock before he let anyone near her.
Megan looked down at the man who had imprisoned her, realizing the cage had locked them both together.
And God help her, she was no longer sure she wanted the door to open.
The transition from prisoner to partner happened in increments of silence and a mutual understanding that the world was waiting for them to fail.
By the end of her second trimester, Megan’s mental restlessness sharpened into a razor edge.
She was done pacing the manicured gardens, done waiting for Dan to come home smelling of cordite.
On a Tuesday evening, Megan walked into the study while Dan was behind his massive desk.
She stood beside him and told him to move over.
He frowned, but she systematically dismantled Brenda’s financial infrastructure using public tax records and property deeds.
She laid out a tactical matrix, proving that starving them out through union strikes and bribed enforcers was cheaper and safer than a turf war.
Dan leaned over her shoulder, staring at the screen, a profound, undeniable respect in his tone as he called her ruthless.
Megan turned to meet his gaze, their faces inches apart, and told him she was making sure the man who protected her child didn’t take a bullet.
The invisible wall between captor and captive dissolved, replaced by something far more dangerous.
They were building an empire brick by bloody brick, with Megan firmly at the mortar.
Winter arrived on Long Island with a vicious, howling gale.
By mid-January, the estate was blanketed in two feet of snow, and Megan was thirty-eight weeks pregnant.
It happened on a Friday when the storm knocked out the main power lines.
Dan was in the city finalizing the union strike, and the estate’s backup generators hummed flawlessly until they suddenly died.
Megan froze in the dark library, recalling the security protocol for catastrophic power failure.
A sharp, deafening crack of gunfire shattered the silence from the front gates.
Panic tasted like blood in the back of her throat as she moved toward the hallway, calling for Tyler.
Another burst of automatic weapons echoed, followed by the heavy thud of a breaching charge on the front doors.
A sharp, tearing pain ripped across Megan’s lower abdomen, dropping her to her knees.
She forced herself to stand, moving down the secondary servant’s corridor in bare feet.
A rough voice barked from the foyer to find the woman, proving Brenda’s crew was desperate and someone had sold them out.
Megan slipped into the kitchen and punched the code into the keypad behind a false pantry wall.
She pulled the heavy steel door of the safe room open, hauled it shut, and spun the internal locking wheel.
The safe room was small, lit by emergency LEDs, and smelled of stale air.
Another contraction hit, worse than the first, and she bit down on her sleeve to muffle her scream.
Above her, the muffled, concussive sounds of a war zone vibrated through the ceiling.
She was drowning in pain, anchored only by the primal, desperate need to push.
Then the heavy steel wheel on the door groaned.
Megan scrambled backward, grabbing a heavy steel flashlight, ready to make Brenda’s men kill her before they took the child.
The door swung open, and Dan stood in the doorway.
His cashmere overcoat was soaked in blood and snow, his face smeared with soot, and he held a smoking assault rifle.
He dropped the rifle and crossed the room, pulling her into his chest.
He was freezing cold, but to Megan, he felt like the sun.
She sobbed into his neck as he whispered fiercely that he had her and that they were all dead.
A brutal contraction ripped through her, and she screamed, her nails digging into Dan’s shoulders.
Dan roared up the stairs for Craig, and the safe room became a delivery ward.
Dan sat behind Megan, holding her upright against his chest, whispering prayers and promises in Italian.
He told her to breathe with him, calling her the strongest thing in this world.
With a final guttural scream, Megan pushed, and a sharp, angry wail echoed off the concrete walls.
Craig wrapped the bloody infant in a sterile blanket and placed the tiny, furious boy onto Megan’s chest.
Dan leaned his chin heavily on her shoulder, reaching out a trembling finger to trace his son’s cheek.
The infant stopped crying, turning toward the warmth of his father’s touch.
A single tear slipped down Dan’s bruised face, hiding itself in Megan’s hair.
Three days later, the estate was quiet again.
Megan sat in her bedroom window, her son asleep in a heavy oak bassinet by the bed.
Dan walked in wearing a fresh charcoal suit, the cold, calculating mask of the don fully returned.
He looked down at his sleeping son before turning to Megan, announcing the perimeter was reinforced.
She asked him about Brenda, and he replied with a terrible finality that she was buried.
Megan reached out, adjusting the lapel of his suit jacket in an intimate domestic gesture.
She reminded him of his words about the cruelty of their world, and stated that they wouldn’t hide.
They would make sure the target was too dangerous for anyone to ever shoot at.
A flash of pure, dangerous pride flared in Dan’s gray eyes.
He reached up, wrapping his hand around the back of her neck, and kissed her.
It wasn’t the desperate hollow kiss from the past, nor the forceful claim of a captor; it was heavy, deliberate, and entirely mutual.
Megan realized the cage doors had been blown wide open during the raid, and she hadn’t run.
She had no intention of ever running again.
“Like it or not, Dan,” Megan murmured, a small smile playing on her lips. “You couldn’t get rid of me if you tried.”
