I make myself a whiskey, I need to call Jagger and find out if he has a lead on Johnson, if not, the best way to make him come out is to take his ex-wife. Walking into my office, I take a seat, and hit dial for Jagger’s number. I take a sip of whiskey, loving the burn as it goes down my throat.
“Boss,” he answers.
“Jag, how are you with getting what I’ve asked.”
He laughs. “Boss, you called at just the right time. The fucker has been hiding but we’ve finally found him. Bringing him in now.”
I smile, everything is falling into place. “Good.”
“Boss, how is your mom and Tina?”
Shit, I forgot that my men don’t know what’s happened. “Mom’s good. She came out of surgery and her usual self. Tina, didn’t make it.”
“Fuck.” That one word resonates with me. It’s the only way to describe it. “How’s Mia and your dad?”
“About as well as you’d think. Mia’s asleep and Dad’s out doing something.”
He laughs. “I know what that means, I’ll call you when we’re situated.”
“Good, call if you need me.” I end the call, I hate not being in the action but right now, Mia needs me more than anything.
Throwing my phone onto my desk I boot up my laptop, Dad told me earlier that the man he hired to delve into how Mia was taken had sent me a file. Loading up my emails, I see the email Dad was talking about. It’s from a Bounty Hunter that I know, Cody Haines. Why has he gone to Cody? I read the email, and understand why dad went to him.
Hudson,
Martin came to me about two months ago, asking me for listening devices and trackers. He told me that you had someone on your tail and wanted to reciprocate the favor. Had I known what he really intended on using it for, I would never have given him the devices.
He planted the tracker and listening device in Mia’s phone, I’ve tracked it as I too have a tracking chip inside, in case it got into the wrong hands. Hudson, it’s still there, he’s still listening. Also, I have an exact location on where he last used the device that was less than twenty four hours ago. I’ve attached a map that pinpoints his location.
I’d love nothing more than to help you bring down this bastard but I’m on a skip at the moment in Maryland. Call me if you need me.
All the best,
Cody.
Fuck, fuck, fuck. I’m up off my chair and stalking toward our bedroom, it’s time to get Mia a new phone. Opening the bedroom door, I spy her phone on the bed. I know that I can’t throw it away, not yet at least. I need to move her pictures and shit over to her new one and then I’m going to use this as a way to make Martin pay. He’s o
bviously still keeping tabs on her, Coby said that he last used the listening device less than twenty four hours ago. We’re finally, fucking finally, finding the mistakes he’s making. He’s about to lose everything he has, no more leverage, no more comforts, he’s going to be fucked.
I go through her images and make sure they’re all saved to her memory card, not wanting her to lose any on the changeover. I send a text to Aaron, asking him to get Mia a new phone, needing to get this shit out of her hands as soon as possible. Once she wakes, I’m going to have to explain to her why I’m taking her cell away from her.
I leave the bedroom, wanting her to sleep a bit longer. I’m still shocked that she’s pregnant, when she told me and that she was scared that it was Martin’s my heart dropped to my stomach, but I meant what I said to her, even if it was his, I’d still consider it my own because there is no way on this fucking earth that bastard was ever going to even lay eyes on Mia again. I know that as soon as my men find out Mia’s pregnant they’re going to come to the conclusion that it could be his, my men gossip like fucking old women in a hair salon and there’s no way they haven’t found out what that fucker did to Mia.
Aaron replies to me saying he’s on his way to get one now, he’ll drop it by the house once it’s been purchased. I don’t ask him where he’s getting it from or what cell he’s getting. I know my man, he’ll get the best one available to him at the time. It’s why I’ve asked him to get it, he’ll know what to get and won’t have to ask me what the hell he needs to buy.
I’m waiting on Dad to call back, it’s been at least thirty minutes, and I’ve never known it to take that long to off someone. I know he won’t have got cold feet, but I am wondering if he’s gone overboard and has ended up torturing them. I’ve seen my dad go crazy as fuck, once before, he ended up decapitating them, as well as slaughtering their entire family. I was eleven when I witnessed it and it’s why I’ve sworn that I’ll always protect innocent women and children. If women fuck up, they’ll pay the price, I’m not that much of a martyr.
My cell rings and I see that it’s Jagger. I answer it immediately. “He there?”
“Yes boss, what do you want me to do with him?”
“Hold him there, I’m waiting on Aaron to arrive and I’ll be there.” I’m not sure yet if I’ll bring both Aaron and Mia along or leave him here to watch her. “Has he said anything?”
“Not yet.” There’s a slight mocking in his tone, and I’m curious as to what they’ve done to him.
“I’ll be there shortly.” I end the call and walk back to the office and grab my whiskey. I down it in one swallow, I hate fucking waiting and dad’s taking his time. I wonder if they’re having a trip down memory lane, talking about how fucked up their son is? It’s hard to think that asshole’s my brother, the trust I had in him was misplaced, had I known what he was that trust wouldn’t have been there. I’d have been suspicious of him from the get-go, I’d have been wary of his motives, always wondering what angle he would have been playing. I’d have known that he was passed over for the title of Boss, I’d have known that it would hurt him and I’d have known that he’d want revenge, I’d have been prepared for what was to come. I would have been one step ahead. Whereas now, I’m at least three moves behind and finally gaining ground. It’s too late, way fucking too late.
I hear a noise in the bedroom, followed by footsteps, Mia’s awake. I follow the noise, just as she comes out of the bathroom. “You have a good sleep?”
