Gage was still looking at me like he wanted to plant his fist in my face. What the hell was wrong with him? This couldn’t be about his breakfast. Trinity had cooked. I could smell it.

“Afraid she wasn’t looking for you. She was leaving you.” Levi might as well have wrapped a rope around my throat and pulled it.

“What the fuck did you say?” I asked, thinking this was bullshit.

They thought this was funny. My head was not in a good place, and I didn’t need their fucking jokes. I needed Trinity.

“You didn’t come home. Didn’t call or text your woman. Were out drunk at a strip club. SHE FUCKING LEFT!” Gage stood up, his angry glare leveled on me. “What the hell were you thinking?”

This didn’t make sense. Why would she go to Maddy’s if she was leaving me? She was upset. If she was leaving me, she wouldn’t have gone to the ranch.

“She went to Maddy’s. That’s not leaving me. She’s hurt because she doesn’t understand. I’ll go fucking fix it.”

“Sure. Take your ass right on over there. I said she left you. She’s not there.”

My heart started pounding as hard as my fucking head.

“Where is she?” I asked through clenched teeth. “And how the fuck did she know I was at Devil’s last night?”

Gage glanced at Levi, then back at me. “She overheard us talking last night. We thought she was asleep downstairs.”

“FUCK!” I roared. “AND YOU DIDN’T THINK TO CALL ME?!”

Gage threw his arms in the air. “I fucking called you. Levi called you. YOU WEREN’T ANSWERING!”

I pulled out my phone and then went to the tracker I kept on her. It saidUnavailable. I refreshed and tried again. Un-fucking-available.

Panic was starting to take over. I stared at it as I ran my hand through my hair, then pulled at my hair as I tried to figure out how to find her. Blaise. If Maddy had taken her, Blaise would know where.

“What the fuck was Blaise thinking?” I growled, then pressed his number.

“You done with whatever shit messed you up?” Blaise asked when he answered on the first ring.

“Where is she?” I clipped out.

“My wife likes Trinity. You’re the closest friend I have. You’re family. Which is why when Madeline asked me why you’d gotten drunk at the club last night and I didn’t have an answer, I let her go get Trinity. You want to tell me what the fuck you were doing?”

My hand clenched at my side. “I will. But it’s better to show you. Just please tell me where she is.”

“I spoke with Madeline. Trinity isn’t mad at you. That’s not why she left,” Blaise said.

“Then, why the fuck did she leave me?” I growled.

“She thinks you want out.”

“Why the fuck would she think that? I was gone one night. One goddamn night. Where is she at, Blaise?”

He sighed. “She was determined to go. Madeline took her to the only person she knew who could keep her safe if she wasn’t with us.”

“FUCK!” I shouted. “Please tell me they just went to Devil’s. She’s not headed to Miami.” I was already stalking back to the garage door.

“Devil’s. Liam’s apartment.”

I had just fucking been there. Slamming the door behind me, I didn’t say anything to Gage or Levi. They’d let her leave. Sure, it was Maddy who had taken her, but still. They could have said something to make her stay.

What was this shit about her thinking I wanted out? Had she missed the fact that I was fucking obsessed with her? How was that not clear?

As I reached the Escalade, the garage door opened up. I didn’t look back at whichever fucker it was. Neither of them had stopped her. Once I had her back here, where she belonged, then I’d listen to their reasons and possibly forgive them.
