I need to find her.
CHAPTER 66
Stryker
Jaxson goes inside Zayne’s dungeon, leaving me alone with my swirling thoughts.
Your rage isn’t doing Mallory any good. She left you clues. Now find her.
When I turn around, the gang stands there, eyeing me with concern. Zayne and Delaney are bloody.
“Mallory’s missing.”
Zayne’s voice booms through the woods. “Let’s head to the house. This is a priority.” He comes up beside me. “Does she have her phone?”
“It’s either off or dead.” I swallow hard, hating that last fucking word.
Zayne squeezes my shoulder. “Don’t think like that.”
Jaxson is on my other side. “Does she have a tracker?”
I stop. “Of course. Her engagement ring. I installed one before I proposed.”
Grabbing my phone, I pull up the app, impatiently waiting. “What the hell? She’s in Florida.”
“Zayne, that plane that you bought…”
“Yeah, you made fun of me for it. Look who’s laughingnow.” He turns to the group behind us. “Ryker, you take Devyn, Luca, Keira, and Mia in your vehicle. Everyone else, get in mine. We’re heading to the plane.”
I crackmy knuckles while sitting on the plane, staring at the dot on my laptop.I can’t believe I almost forgot about that tracker.
“I hope the fucker doesn’t crash this thing. He hasn’t been a pilot for long.”
“As long as he gets us there, that’s all I care about.”
Jaxson levels me with a look. “I’m sorry you’re going through this shit. Neither of you deserve it.” He leans closer, nodding at my stomach. “You need to watch those stitches, kid.”
“Fuck the stitches. I care about two things. Mallory and beating the shit out of whoever took her.”
“I get it, man. But don’t go off half-cocked like the jackass flying the plane. I’ve seen it go wrong too often because he was emotional.” He lifts his glass of whiskey and takes a drink. “Luckily, I was around to save his ass.”
A small grin tugs at my lips. “You gonna save my ass if I get in trouble?”
Jaxson lifts his drink. “Of course. We all will.” He takes a long drink, making a disgusted face.
“I’ve never seen you drink whiskey before.”
“I usually don’t. I hate flying. The fear is worse since Zayne is the pilot.”
Chuckling, I shake my head. “I’ve gotta admit, I love the friendship the two of you have.”
“You and Ryker have something similar. You don’t bust each other’s balls as much as Zayne and I do. But we’ve known each other for sixteen years.”
Delaney appears, clapping her hands together to get everyone’s attention. She’s wearing different clothes. “Zayne said we’ll be landing in fifteen minutes, so buckle up bitches.”
“She means bend over and kiss your ass goodbye,” Jaxson mutters, draining his glass of whiskey.
“I’d like to see my girl before I go to hell.” I fasten my seat belt, my eyes still on the dot showing her tracker. “Why would he take her to North Captiva Island?”
