“The bail bondsman you contacted has an affiliation with the MC we suspect bought Tymeless from Red. They have an issue with Kumarin, which is why they showed up and tried to collect the money.”

Tobias typed out a text, informing Drake of the arrangement he and Kumarin had come to. In exchange for his assistance now, he would require Hannigan and his men to return to Detroit in the event he needed help.

As the car pulled into the parking lot of the county jail, Tobias tucked his gun under the seat of the SUV. Locking the doors, he looked around the parking lot, spotting one of Kumarin’s cars on a side street.

“Let me do the talking,” Stetson said, as they crossed the lot and entered the door.

Tobias had been in his fair share of police stations; none of them had ever made him as nervous as he was at this moment. He and Stetson were at a disadvantage, as no one behind the desk owed him any favors or knew of his reputation. He’d relied on those avenues too much, and he didn’t like it.

“Can I help you?” The uniformed officer behind the desk blinked her eyes twice, before adjusting herself in the chair, her once stoic expression split in half by the mega-watt smile forming on her lips.

“Yes, officer…Cline.” Looking to the nametag on her uniform. “I’m here to post bond for a client.” Stetson said politely, his charisma for charming even the shrewdest individual something legends were made of.

“Name?” she purred, even with her youthful face, she wasn’t immune to his mild flirtation.

“Tymeless Hart.”

Officer Cline’s smile faltered, then glanced in Tobias’s direction. “Bond is seventy-five hundred, cash or credit. Pay the cashier to your left.”

Stetson thanked her, giving her one more of his infamous smiles before telling her to have a wonderful day. Walking up to the cashier, Stetson held back his charm as the man behind the glass didn’t look as if he would appreciate it. Once the cash was handed over, and the paperwork filed, they were instructed to wait in the chairs along the wall for Tymeless to be released.

Tobias knew bonding someone out of jail was never a quick process. He’d always credited himself as being a patient person, but as he sat in the plastic chair, watching others waiting for someone to come walking out of the metal door at the end of the hall, he nearly lost his mind. Every time the buzzer sounded, his head would snap to the door, only to be disappointed when the woman he couldn’t wait to meet didn’t come through the door.

Thirty minutes after Stetson handed the money to the cashier; the door opened and out walked the most beautiful woman he’d ever seen. Standing from his seat, he took a step in her direction, when Stetson slammed his hand in the middle of his chest.

“We’ve got company.”

Motioning to the two men who’d walked through the door, the rockers on the backs of their cuts telling the world the MC they belonged to. Tobias looked to Tymeless who’s eyes were wide, staring at the men on the other side of the room. He had to do something to get her out of here and onto the jet.

“Start for the door,” Tobias ordered Stetson, as he took several purposeful steps toward Tymeless. Sliding one hand behind her head, he looked into the same blue eyes he fell in love with, leaning down he whispered. “My name is Tobias, Justice sent me,” then crashed his lips to hers. Wrapping his arms around her tiny waist, he picked her up and headed for the door, their lips still pressed together.

Stetson held the door as Tobias cupped his hands under her ass, breaking the kiss, he shoved her face into his neck, “Don’t think for a second that kiss was just a distraction.” Tobias had kissed his fair share of girls, and he knew the difference between one who was kissing you because it was expected and one who was kissing you because she wanted to. And Tymeless Hart wanted to be kissed.

Placing her in the back of the SUV and climbing in behind her, he slammed the door as Stetson peeled out of the parking lot.

“Who are you and where are you taking me?” Tymeless’s questions held fire, but her hands remained on Tobias.

“As I said before, my name is Tobias, and I was sent to get you by your sister, Justice.”

Tymeless pushed away, reaching for the door handle. “My sister is dead. Now pull over and let me out.”

Stetson pressed the door locks, the clicking sound echoing inside the SUV as Tobias pulled his phone from his pocket. “Justice is not dead, but I'll let her tell you.”

The familiar chime of his phones video chat rang three times before Drake’s voice and face appeared on the screen.

“I have someone who needs to speak with your girl.”

Handing his phone to Tymeless, he sat back as the angry face of the girl beside him slowly changed to happy, tears streaming down her face as her shaky hand rested over her mouth.

“Justice?”

CHAPTERFORTY-TWO

Tymeless couldn’t believeshe was staring at the face of her sister, or how the handsome man sleeping quietly across from her had kissed her with such passion.

“After you went to jail, Red traveled more. He would leave me in the house by myself, but Mrs. Hawkins always came and took me to her house.”

Her sister had changed so much, her hair dark as pitch, and the love she once had in her eyes was now frozen, locked behind a wall she had created.
