I stared at that picture and that message for half the afternoon.
They’re obviously having fun there because they’ve been there for hours. I guess Lily would have gone down for a nap, and Rose would be relaxing with my sisters. Good. She needs it.
I should put something together for dinner for everyone. Standing up, I glance at my watch and note it’s almost five.
I honestly didn’t expect them to visit Jade for that long.
Pulling my phone out, I’m about to dial Jade and see how things are going, but my phone starts ringing with Yilian’s name across the screen.
“Hey, man. How’s it going?” I say, flopping back into the sofa.
“Luka, one of my informants, just called to say that he witnessed Rose getting taken by our rivals.”
“Boris’s men?” I say in disbelief.
“Yes.”
“But she’s at Jade’s place,” I stammer.
“Dude, I trust this guy,” Yilian snaps, worried.
“I’ll call you back.”
Hanging up, I dial Jade, nausea building in my stomach.
Please be wrong. Please be wrong. Please be wrong.
“Hey Luka, how’s it going? You should see Lily with—"
“Where is Rose?”
“Huh?” Jade huffs.
“Where is Rose, Jade? Is she there?” I shout.
“She didn’t stay. She dropped Lily off this morning around ten and said she had some things to do. Luka, what’s going on?”
“I can’t explain now. Sorry.”
“Luka!” Jade screams at me. “Don’t you dare hang up on me!”
“Yilian’s informant saw someone taking her,” I say, panic making me feel like I’m sinking into the floor.
“I’ve got Lily. Go find Rose,” Jade says with strength in her voice.
With my keys in my hand, I’m already running out to the car while I dial Yilian again.
“What else do you know?” I growl.
“My guy is calling us back in a minute. He told his friend to follow them. We’re waiting to find out where they went.”
“I’m on my way to you.”
“So are Niko and Ark.”
As usual, I have the full support of my family. I don’t know where I would be without them. I’m normally level-headed and calm in heavy situations, but right now I can’t seem to focus on anything.
Driving to Yilian’s place, I take deep breaths. I’m good at what I do. Panic won’t help a fucking thing.
