She describes where and when she’s supposed to meet them. I blow out a cleansing breath as Wystan calls Anatoly. Papa is out of the country, so Cynric is the acting Pakhan. I decide not to tell him about any of this, so I’m going to use Anatoly. I hear Wystan explain what’s going on. I revert my attention back to Mrs. Abashin. “Stay where you are. I’ll handle the assholes who took her.” I disconnect the call as Wystan hands me his phone. “I need help.”

Anatoly growls. “And help you’ll have. I have to ask, does this have anything to do with Arturo and his mystery information about Ivan Petrov’s living child?”

“Fuck. I don’t know. Maybe. I’ll call Marco. We’ve got three hours before we have to meet at Central Park for the exchangewith Mrs. Abashin. We all know that exchange will never happen. They’re just trying to trick Mrs. Abashin.”

Anatoly pauses. “How are we handling that?”

“Not sure. I’ll have Fingers pull the video feed and see if there’s anything there now. We’ll get back to you.”

Wystan sighs. “Now that Anatoly is on board, where do you want to bring everyone together?”

“Let’s see what Fingers finds.”

My brother smirks. “Oh, congratulations. I wanted to mention when I found out a little while ago, but afraid you’d be pissed that I knew.”

“How do you know?”

Wystan scoffs. “Seriously. People tell me everything. I knew when you made her appointment.”

“I can’t lose her.”

“You won’t. Your son is a Bravikov heir, and we’ll get them back.” Wystan’s frown deepens. “She’s the mother of your child. This is all yours to work out. Let’s just get her back, and then you can unwrap this little puzzle about her family.”

I roll my eyes. He’s too fucking smart for his own good. I pull my phone out of my pocket and dial the number I’d rather not use.

“Bueno, Thane.”

“Marco, I need all the information you have on Scarlet Petrova.”

He chuckles. “Ah, you figured it out.”

“She’s been taken and you’ve had her under surveillance.”

“We. Uh…”

“Now, Marco.”

“Si. I’ll send it now. We were just looking out for you.”

“Yep. And if you get a bit of leverage, so much the better.”

The pause makes me rethink his intentions, but I don’t have the time to smooth his feelings. “I would never.”

“Okay. Antonio of La Familia Morejon has her.”

“Shit. That’s not good. They traffic. Are you sure she’s still alive? Why did they take her?”

“They’re using her for leverage on a family member.”

“May I help you?”

“I’d appreciate any help you can give.” I’m sure I’ll pay for it the next time they want something, but she’s worth it. He’ll go all out to help me find the man and my woman.

Wystan taps his earpiece and flicks his head toward the exit.

“I’ve gotta go, man. Gracias.”

“De nada. Your hacker should have everything we have. We’ll get you what we have on the Morejons in a few.”
