Bound for Life (Bound to the Bad Boy Book 1)
Page 23
The thought trails off as I turn the corner. The apartment complex the safehouse is in has no less than four police cars parked out front, and nearly a dozen officers standing outside.
“Bruno, what-” Serena starts to say, and without a moment to lose, I try to take a turn down a side-road and slip out of sight before we’re noticed.
But the moment I do, a fifth car pulls up to block my path, coming to a screeching halt while the beat cops start running up to the car, guns coming out.
“What the fuck is this?!” Rafaela hisses.
“No,” I whisper through gritted teeth, and from the fifth car, I watch a tall man with a thin face and short dark hair step out of the car, pulling a shining badge out of his trench coat in one hand while he moves to the car and uses his other hand to pull the door open.
“Bruno Lomaglio,” the man says in a tone that tells me exactly what’s coming next. I put my hands up as another cop pulls me out of the car, and Serena and Rafaela are take out from the other side.
“What the fuck are you doing?” I say in a gravelly, warning tone, glaring at the man as he takes out a pair of handcuffs.
“Detective William Price,” he barks, gesturing for me to turn around. “You’re under arrest for racketeering, assault with a deadly weapon, possession of unlicensed firearms…” His voice trails off to me as my ears start ringing, and I feel another cop pulling my hands down and trying to shove me against the front of my car.
“Serena!” I shout, watching the girls getting pulled away by the cops. Her terrified face looks to me desperately.
“Bruno! Bruno, what-”
“Stay calm!” I shout as I try to pull away from the officers to stay in sight of her. Immediately, I feel two officers wrestling me back, shoving me into the back of a police car, “I love you, baby!”
“I love you, Bruno!” she calls, tears streaking down her face.
And that’s the last sight I see before the police car door slams shut.
