I stare at Muff, whose eyes are narrowed on me.
Well, that didn’t go quite as we had planned.
Nobody saw that one coming.
~*~*~*~*~
“HAS ANYONE SEEN ADDISON?”I ask, leaning against the bar the next day, bouncing Max on my hip.
“No,” Serenity murmurs, crossing her arms.“She is clearly wanting space.She has Skye, so she wouldn’t be doing anything silly.”
“Maybe not,” Ciara exhales, watching as Danny goes running past with a red firetruck, “but that doesn’t mean she isn’t going through something.I have tried to call her, she won’t answer.”
“She’s shocked.Trust me, I know how that feels.Just give her time,” I say, gently.
“Cade is losing his ever-loving mind.”Ciara frowns, looking at the door where we can hear the guys arguing.
They haven’t stopped.
Shit is blowing up.
“So he should be,” Serenity mutters.“I’m pissed at Jackson for even allowing this to happen.I can’t imagine how Addison is feeling, know Cade was the reason it happened to begin with.”
“We don’t know the whole story,” I try to say, even though I know it makes little difference.
Serenity crosses her arms.“We don’t need to.He sold women, and even if it was unintentional, he didn’t go back to help them.Worse, he didn’t check where his sister is.I’d find it difficult to accept that.”
“Did anyone know Cade had a sister?”Ciara asks, taking a sip from her water bottle.
We all shake our heads.
“Their relationship must have been pretty bad if he never went after her,” I ponder, pursing my lips.“It’s shitty, I know, but we don’t know what kind of past they had.”
“No, I suppose we don’t.”Serenity mutters, seemingly unconvinced.
The door opens, and the guys walk out.Cade doesn’t stop, instead he charges out the front door, fists clenched by his sides.A moment later his bike starts, and we hear it tearing out of the lot.I look at Muff, who seems equally tense.They all are.Walking over, I lean in so only he can hear me.
“Is he okay?”
“No.”
Oh.
“Have you heard from Addison?”Muff asks, his voice gruff.
I shake my head.“No, she won’t answer our calls.”
“We need to find her.She ain’t safe out there with Wesley still hangin’ around.She could get hurt.”
Max reaches out for Muff, and he quickly takes him, relaxing a little.
“Does anyone have any idea where she might be?”I ask, glancing around the room.
“There is a cabin out in the woods that you can rent,” Ciara says, her eyes widening, “her and Cade love going there for vacation.Maybe she went there?It’s honestly the only place outside this club and her house that I could imagine she would go.”
“Worth a look.”Jackson steps over to Serenity, but she moves away.
Yikes.
