Maverick: What?!

Maverick: How the hell are you related?

Me: Remember that I told you my grandfather was the head of the United Brotherhood?

Maverick: Not something I’m likely to forget.

Me: True. When he offered to help me with the Sparrows, he wanted me to find his granddaughter who’d been missing since her father’s death. When I looked into it, I think Kat could be the missing granddaughter.

Maverick: No such thing as a coincidence.

Me: My problem exactly.

Me: I’ll let you know when I find out if she is or not.

Maverick: Thanks, Star.

Me: For?

Maverick: Not keeping us in the dark.

Me: You guys have been fighting to take down the Sparrows since you found out about them. I can promise you, Mav, that we’re getting there.

Maverick: Good. Alessa deserves some peace.

Maverick: Stay safe.

Me: Keep your eyes open.

Maverick: O.O

Blowing out a breath,I stared at my reflection in the vanity.

Now that was done, and once I thought Maverick would have had enough time to speak with her, I tried Alessa’s cell.

“Star? I was hoping to hear from you.”

I grimaced. “Should have called sooner but it’s been crazy here.”

“I’ll bet. I’m so glad you’re safe. We were worried about you.”

“I’m sorry I freaked you out,” I said with a sigh. “I just…”

“I’m Kati’s sister, and on her behalf, I’m pissed,” Alessa declared, the sound of her Baltic roots filtering through the words. “But as someone who was a sex slave for the Sparrows, I can only hope that you’re close to annihilating them.”

“I am,” I rasped.

“That’s phenomenal news!”

“Yeah, I guess it is,” I said with a soft laugh before I rubbed my temple where an ache was brewing. “Alessa, I’m the reason Maverick wants to bring you home.”

“He just called—”

“Don’t argue with him. Go home and lay low until I tell you otherwise.”

“For how long? What’s this about, Star?”

“I wish I could give you answers but I have none yet. What I do know is that Katina might be related to me.”
