I think about that for a moment before shaking my head. “No. As much as I want to and everything in me is screaming to go up there and beat the hell out of Tony until he tells me what he did. We can’t. Wesley has been through enough and he just woke up from his coma. If we go up there and cause a scene or upset Wes and he has any setbacks because of it, our omega would be devastated.”
Dane lets out a breath, and nods his head. “Okay, yeah, you’re right. Plus, Tony would expect that. I bet he has the hospital guards looking out for us. We wouldn’t get within five feet of the place before they escort us off the property or worse, to jail. That would be giving him what he wants, us away from Willow. We need to beat him at his own game. Be smarter.”
“So what do we do?” I sit on the couch and put my head in my hands. I feel helpless. My omega is out there, somewhere. Is she okay? Is she hurt, or scared? Is Aubrey still with her or did they get separated? “Should we call the cops?”
“And what? You know damn well the cops in this town are under one man’s thumb, the man Tony works for. If anything, I bet Tony would have his help. I never did like that guy,” Dane snarls.
“Okay, so if we don’t go to the cops, then what?”
“We go home and start looking through Tony’s digital footprint. Then when Ledger and Nash get to the house we have more information and we make a plan.”
“What fucking plan, Dane? We don’t even know where they are!” Fear claws at my throat. This can’t be happening. We just got her, we’re finally becoming a pack. I can’t lose her.
He drops to his knees in front of me. “Look at me. We are going to get them back. They’re our pack. Our omega and our beta. There may be no attraction to Aubrey, but she’s our beta, our family.”
“Okay.” I nod, willing back my tears.
“We find out what we can and then we make our plan. It’s either how to lure Tony out so we can get the information we need from him. Or…he’s an idiot and left proof somewhere online and we go straight to where he has them.”
“Let’s go then. I’m going to make that fucker pay for even thinking he could keep our omega from us.” I get up and storm from the house back to our car.
Dane gets in behind the wheel and as he reverses out of the yard, grass flies.
Hold on, baby, we’re coming. Come hell or high water, you’ll be back where you belong soon.
Chapter Forty-One
NASH
I’m trying my hardest to hold myself together right now, but as we drive down the highway, my hands grip the steering wheel so tight my knuckles turn white.
“We’re going to find them. Everything will be okay,” Ledger tells me again, for the third time.
I want to believe him, I want to be level-headed and think that way. But it’s hard when my two girls aren’t picking up their phones. They couldn’t have just vanished.
“We should have gone with them,” I say through clenched teeth. “When Aubrey called to tell us about Willow’s brother, we should have dropped everything and fucking went with them.”
“I know. I feel the same way. But there’s nothing we can do about that right now. Maybe we’re blowing this up into something bigger than it is. Maybe they went for a walk and left their phones at home. Maybe by the time we get there, they will already be back in Willow’s parent’s house, safe and sound.”
“Really?” I snarl, not meaning to snap at Ledger, but I’m too worked up to care. “You really think Aubrey would leave the house without her phone? Willow, maybe, but Aubs? Hell fucking no. That phone is glued to her hand. It’s like it’s a part of her damn body. And being away from home? Never, Ledger. No. Something’s happened and we need to fucking figure it out.”
When we pull up to the address Dane texted us, I’m surprised to see that there’s no police cars in the driveway. “What the hell?” I throw the car in park and rip my door open, slamming it behind me.
I lift my fist, pounding it against the door.
“Nash.” Ledger joins me at my side. “Calm down.”
My head whips to the side. “Don’t you tell me to calm down. How the fuck are you not freaking out?”
“We don’t even know what's going on,” he hisses back.
The door opens and I don’t greet Dane as I push past him. “What the hell? Why didn’t you call the cops, they could be out looking for the girls by now!” I shout, whirling around to face him.
“Cops aren’t an option,” Dane says.
“And why the fuck not?”
“We might not have any proof of this, yet, but I’m positive this has something to do with Tony. But just in case I’m wrong I don’t want to tell our omega we called the cops on her father and had him as a person of interest in her kidnapping.”
