“Christ. Where the fuck did they go?”
He began texting someone and typing away a message. Probably asking Xenon to find out where Shadow was located. Every prospect and member could be tracked. Saved Grim’s life recently when Trish’s stepbrother tried to kill them both. We found him within minutes.
Opening my mouth to answer, I snapped my lips shut when my phone began ringing
and I glanced down, not recognizing the number. A weird feeling brushed over my skin and I answered, placing the call on speaker.
“Who the fuck is this?” I asked, wondering who had my number.
A deep, sinister chuckle came over the line. “Dale Dixon. Forgive me, Patriot,” he sneered, “How is your little friend Trixie?”
My entire body went completely still.
Grim placed a finger over his lips and quietly shut his office door.
“Don’t think I know your name,” I finally replied, barely holding back the sudden rush of fury that surfaced with my Reaper.
Did he have my sunshine?
“Oh, you know me. Sure been digging around plenty to find out everything you can.”
He wasn’t Russian so that only left Voltoy’s American friend. “Sean Jones.”
“Guess you are smart.”
The insult pissed me off but not as much as the idea that Mimi was his captive.
“You fuck her yet?” he asked, chuckling over the line. “Been in every hole she’s got and fucked her until she bled. Great piece of ass.”
A roar launched from my chest as Grim’s hand landed on my shoulder and gripped tight.
“May just keep her chained to my bed and have that pussy and ass ready for me every minute of the day. She’ll be raw and dripping my cum.”
He wanted me to lose control but I wouldn’t do that. Blinking, I focused on his words and taunts.
Why say such things if he actually had Mimi? He would be tormenting and fucking her not talking about it.
“You’re a liar, Jones. Fucking worthless piece of shit.”
That did the trick. He fired off a list of threats but I lost interest and hit end.
Grim released my shoulder and shook his head. “That’s gonna piss him off. Might make him careless but can’t say I’m sorry you hung up on him. Guy like that is power hungry. He’ll be looking for an opportunity to confront you and that’s exactly what we need. Just gotta lay low until the meeting with Resnikov.”
I was still wound up. “Doesn’t change the fact that Mimi is in danger and wherever she went, she’s still a target. I’ve got to find her.”
Grim’s phone pinged and he looked down. “Xenon found them. They’re on the way back here. Should be about five minutes away.”
Running for the door, I flung it open and bolted down the hall, bursting outside into a bright afternoon sunshine. My heart pounded out a frantic rhythm as I scanned the horizon beyond the main gate and waited for any sign of their arrival.
One of the auto shop’s vehicles was approaching from a distance and my fists clenched as I imagined all the ways I would make Shadow suffer for putting Mimi at risk. He was going to regret taking her out of the compound without permission. Fucking prospect.
Toad and Spook opened the gate as Shadow drove in and parked. I was at the front passenger door, yanking it open as soon as they stopped. Mimi was pulled into my arms and I held her close, nearly crushing her against my chest.
“You’re safe,” I announced, leaning back to cup her face gently with my hands. “You good? Nothing happened?”
She gave me a funny look. “I’m fine. We just went for a drive. I needed a little fresh air.” Her cheeks were dusted with pink like she was in the sun too long.
“Let’s get you indoors and out of the heat.” I grabbed her hand and led her inside, walking straight to the bar. Once she was seated on one of the barstools, I handed her a cold bottle of water. “Drink up, baby. The desert is no joke.”
