Theo And Reed's Unfortunate Homecoming

Chapter Twenty One

                Two hours later

Theo stepped out of his father's Corvette at a lonely looking construction site on the outskirts of town. He was wearing his sunglasses to hide his bleary reddened eyes. In one hand he held papers.

The text message with the address had also warned him that if they didn't call off the cops after this his family would never be safe.

Theo had fought with his family and friends about coming alone. They wanted the cops with him. Theo refused. He couldn't risk anything happening to his and Reed's son.

He had never felt so alone in his life. Or so scared.

" Hello ," he called out. " I've got the damn papers. Now give me my son. "

" Right here. " He turned around and saw a masked man in all black clothes standing a few paces from him holding his son and a gun. Benji was crying. Theo wanted to kill this man.

" Give me my son. "

The man smirked," Patience, Daddy boy. Hey , kid , go get the papers from daddy. " He put Benji on the ground and Benji ran to his father with a tear stained face. " Give him the papers and send him back. Try anything funny I'll shoot him and you. "

Theo hugged his son tight. He never wanted to let go but he did. He wrapped the tiny fingers around the damn papers and softly said," Honey , go take this to the man and come back to Papa. Ok ? "

Benji nodded and did what his father said. Once Benji had given the man the papers and toddled back to Theo he picked him up and reached into his jacket pocket. It was too hot for a jacket but it was necessary today.

Saint had given him something before Theo left the house. His new 45.

Theo pointed the gun at the man. " You bastard. You messed with the wrong family. "

The man laughed. " You don't have the balls to shoot me. Shooting me won't keep your precious family safe. "

" If he ain't got the balls to blow you away I do," said a unexpected voice. To Theo and the kidnapper's surprise Ryan Livingston stepped from behind a huge trash dumpster and pointed a gun to the back of the kidnapper's head. " Drop your weapon before I drop you. Get to your knees. Hands on your head. You're arrested for kidnapping, you stupid son of a bitch. "

The kidnapper obeyed quickly.

Ryan looked at Theo and Benji and smiled. " You really didn't think your family was just going to let you walk into danger alone, did you? "

Theo hugged his son tightly. " Let's go home to Daddy. "
