“Liam, what’s going on?”I ask, afraid of the answer, but needing to know.

“That’s Wolf, the guy I’ve been hunting, in that picture.”

I have to fight to keep from passing out, my nails biting into Liam’s arm.

“Oh, God.”

I’d never seen a picture of Wolf.I’m sure Liam probably had one when talking to people at the church, but I didn’t truly want involved.Now, I’m kicking my own ass.It feels as if I’m caught in a horrible time loop.My words feel as if they’re torn from my soul.They bleed out and each syllable is painful.

“Let’s load up and get to them.I want this motherfucker in my hands before the sun goes down,” Devil growls, already walking to the door.

“But,” I respond, and I don’t know if I’m talking loud at all.My heart is pounding in my ears and it’s drowning out all other sound.“I don’t know where they’re at.Dawn wouldn’t tell me.They could be anywhere, Devil.They might not even be in the city and this photo was almost an hour ago.Dawn could be…”

“Ice—”

I cut back to look at Liam, seeing the worry on his face and I whisper the one thing I’m thinking.“Dawn could already be dead.”

I collapse then, letting the tears fall as if a dam has broken.Sobs rack my body and Liam takes me in his arms.

Chapter33

Fury

“I can’t believethis motherfucker is going to get away again,” Devil shouts, kicking one of Ellie’s dining table chairs and causing it to fall backwards.I would slap him and tell him to get control of his shit because he’s scaring Ellie, but I figure of all of us, he has more right to lose it when it comes to Wolf.

I’m on the phone to Scorpion, waiting as they try to ping Dawn’s phone.I’m still on the couch, holding Ellie, and doing my best to keep her from completely losing it.She’s still crying, but nothing like she did when we first discovered that it was Wolf the girls were with.I promised her I’d find Dawn and get her back safely, but the truth is I could be lying out of my ass.Wolf has a reason for targeting Ellie and then Dawn.My brother warned me of it, and I ignored him more or less.I’m not ignoring him now.Wolf found a way to exploit my biggest weakness.I’m going to make sure this motherfucker dies.Devil may have to fight me for the right to end him.

“Sorry, Fury.The phone is a no go.I get a general vicinity from the tower it last pinged off, but that’s it,” Scorpion says.

“Fuck.”

“The good news is he’s still in the same city.The bad news is he can be anywhere downtown.I shudder to think how many hotels are in downtown Phoenix.”

“That’s not enough to go on.Damn it, Scorpion, I need something to track this sack of shit,” I growl.

“What about credit cards?”Ellie suggests.“Dawn has a couple and they’d probably use hers.I don’t think Glenna has a card.She was in bad shape financially.I remember her and Dawn fighting over the bills Dawn was having to pay.”

“You hear what she said, Scorp?”

“Yeah, you’re going to have to give me a bit.This could take some time unless she knows the credit card information,” he replies.

“Do you have her credit card info, Ice?”

“No,” she says, the tears threatening to intensify again.“I know she has a Visa…I don’t know the other.Discover maybe?I don’t know, Liam.”

“I’ll work with that and expand.Give me thirty,” Scorpion mutters.I can hear keys on a keyboard being typed on furiously.I know he’s trying, but I don’t have time to wait.

“Make it ten and call me back on my cellphone, we’re heading downtown,” I growl.

“You expect miracles,” Scorpion mutters.

I hang up and I don’t even have to look to know all eyes are on me.

“Let’s load up.We’ll head downtown and start checking out hotels.Scorpion will call when he gets more information,” I tell them, helping Ellie to her feet.

“Ellie, you need?—”

“Don’t even try it.I’m going with you.This is my sister,” she says, and I smile because even terrified, my girl still has a backbone of steel.My brothers are already outside and I hear their rental start up.Ellie and I quickly follow, piling into the back of the SUV.
