“You can trust Darnell, Daemon. He won’t let anything happen to him.”
A retort about trusting a gang of criminals burns on the tip of my tongue, but I swallow it back. My brothers are criminals, some of the worst, and I trust them explicitly.
“Marco is on his way with a cargo van to pick up Donovan,” Lucifer informs us as he joins us in the foyer again.
My phone rings in my hand and I answer on the second ring. “Jax, tell me good news.”
I tap the speaker icon, and Jax’s troubled voice echoes through the small device. “I can’t. She was here, and she did buy a ticket. One way to a small town south of Cambridge. That bus is boarding now, but she’s not on it. I tried pinging her phone, but it’s turned off and we can’t remotely turn it back on. She’s not anywhere to be found.”
“Did you check the station surveillance?” I ask. Nervous energy coursing through my body causes the hand holding the phone to shake, so I place it on the table next to Eden’s gun.
Jax takes a deep breath, and you can hear his cursed whispers deep in the background as if he pulled the phone away from his mouth. “Fuck. Yeah, man. I checked the surveillance. She was picked up, but she didn’t go willingly, she fought back.”
“Who?” Kain growls, and from the corner of my eyes, I catch the twitch of his trigger finger on his thigh.
“Vincent,” Jax says solemnly.
