Kenna zoomed in on the map. “That’s not far from here, and she’s not moving.”
He pulled out his phone. “The agents are going to the compound where Kart kept us. They can’t get in contact with the agent that went there.”
“Well, that’s not where Elliot is.” She wrung her hands together, but that just made things hurt. “I’ll need weapons. Maybe a vest.” She could use a shower and a change of clothes, but that would take too long. “We don’t know how long he’s going to keep her there. Or where he’s planning on taking her next. Probably out of the country.”
“Maybe he’s waiting out the storm.”
She turned to Jax. “We can hit the motel, stock up with supplies. Stairns will have brought what we need.”
“We?” Jax’s brows rose. “You aren’t going to go off alone?”
Kenna shook her head. “Why would I do that when you’re here? Together is better than being alone. Even with the risk.”
Something warm entered his expression.
“We don’t have time for that. We need to go.”
Jax barked a laugh. “I’ll tell the agents I’m not going with them.”
“Are they going to object?”
He shrugged. “I’m on medical leave. It’s none of their business what I’m doing on personal time.”
“I’m not sure that’sexactlyhow it works.”
Jax tugged her close and kissed the side of her temple. “Not sure I exactly care.”
Ramon wrapped up his call and came back over.
Kenna checked the laptop and saw that Maizie hadn’t moved.
Jax said, “Well?”
“He agreed to meet,” Ramon said. “Did you find her?”
Kenna nodded. “There.” She pointed to the map on the screen, which Ramon peered at.
“That’s the place. He said an hour.” Ramon looked almost excited.
“I’m not giving him that much time with her. He doesn’t get an hour.” Kenna grabbed the laptop. “Let’s go.”
Maizie had been broken far too many times. One more might not kill her—but that wasn’t a chance Kenna wasn’t willing to risk.
Ramon headed for the front passenger seat.
Jax cut him off. “Back seat, buddy.”
Kenna slid in the driver’s seat and pulled out, going to the motel.Pushing out every stray thought that threatened her composure. Nothing would jeopardize this. No way would God allow Maizie to be destroyed. Kenna just knew with everything in her that He had a plan for that teen girl.
Which meant she was going to live.

Ramon pushed open the door and headed inside.
From across the street, Kenna could see the door close. A brand-new build that wasn’t open yet. Someone’s attempt to better the economy of this part of town. “Question is, did he drive back to town, or did he never leave?”
Jax shifted, sat in the passenger seat. “Maybe he had something to do.”
