I took her cell phone the minute she came with me and agreed to marry me for protection.

“Yeah, sure.”

I’m not convinced.

I reach into her handbag that we snagged with us when she was grabbed at the park. I had hoped there’d been some inclination of where Karina had taken Ashton, but it had been just her phone, wallet, and a stick of gum.

I retrieve her phone.

“Passcode?” I ask.

She shakes her head.

“Lucky me. It uses your finger.” I bring the phone around from behind her chair and force her to touch the fingerprint pad to unlock her phone. “You should be thanking me. Anyone else and I’d have cut off their finger.”

Ivy snarls at my remark. “See! That’s why she ran.”

I roll my eyes. “Quit being so dramatic. I’m not going to hurt my son or my wife,” I say.

Why can’t she believe me?

I glance through her messages. There aren’t any texts.

That’s odd.

She must have deleted them before the accident. It’s obvious Karina and Ivy planned the getaway.

I flip through the contacts and then previous numbers. There’s one that called her several times. “Who is this?” I ask.

“My therapist,” Ivy says.

I hit call and wait for the other person to answer the phone.

“Ivy? Are you okay?” Karina asks, her voice out of breath.

“No, she’s not,” I say. “You have my son. Bring him back to the compound, or I kill your sister.”

“Don’t listen to him!” Ivy screams.

I hang up the phone and open a tracking app that Ivy previously installed. Apparently, they were sharing each other’s location. I don’t know whether it was on purpose or not, but Karina is at the bus station. At least her phone is, and given the fact I just spoke with her, she should be too.
