Fuck.

I was sure those were all illegal arms. All stolen shit.

It was insane. There were so many crates.

“Well the Feds are gonna have a field day with that. Or whoever we contact.” I shook my head at the scenery. It was unbelievable that something like that was going on right underground like it was all so normal. Who knew what the plan was for those weapons.

We moved to a different section of the warehouse and saw a lot of vehicles. Trucks, cars, bikes.

There was a ramp that led to a large door that looked like it opened upwards. I imagined that they drove up there from underground.

That wouldn’t be the best way in for us.

The best way to find the best way in was to find Jia first then go from there. The place had so many rooms though.

“This may take a while,” Wes stated. He pulled up a chair and sat next to me. Dorian was to my left.

“I hope not. I want us on the move in an hour or so.” I cracked my knuckles. It was eight now. It had taken us all day to get all this stuff together and do what we needed to do.

I’d planned for nine as a ball park time, maybe ten to iron out the plan. Leaving then would give us time to get to the facility under the cover of night fall.

I didn’t want us rushing in, and I didn’t want us to go over the time either. It would take about four hours to get to there as it was situated at the furthest end of Twin Falls. Right there in between Rocky Creek and San Jacinto.

The terrain there wasn’t the best and with the facility not listed on the map it meant we’d have to harness our own map reading skills when we got to a certain point. That meant we needed to be clear from now on our entry points.

“There,” Dorian pointed to the section of the facility listed as Executive. “Maybe it would skip out a few areas if we looked there.”

I tapped on the section and it brought up fifteen rooms on the screen. They were all meeting rooms though.

The section above that was listed by color and called zones. I clicked on the blue zone and that was when the rooms looked more house like.

I would have clicked past a bird cage like structure in a bedroom if not for the sudden movement inside the cage that caught my attention.

Hair of platinum. Bright in the sunlight,silverin the moonlight.

It swished and I saw her face and fury roiled within me.

Jia.

She was in a cage?

She was in a fucking cage!

I growled and balled my fists. Rising to my feet I backed away from the screen.

Wes came over to me and tried to calm me but I backed away further shaking my head.

“They have her in a cage!” I growled. “He locked my girl in a fucking cage! Like an animal.”

Instantly I remembered Giovanni threatening the same. I very nearly hit him when I heard it. Now look. It didn’t if it was some ironic cruel joke the universe had cast my way. Allowing me to see her that way and be so far away I couldn’t do shit.

“Xander, calm down please. We need you calm if this is going to work. Come on bro. I know it’s hard but try to cool down.” He flicked his palms over and pressed down.

I knew I wasn’t helping by losing my head. I just hated the helplessness.

I moved back to my seat but Dorian had taken the mouse and started hovering to the other rooms. It was an actual house.

“I think you’re going to have to get in somewhere in the basement section of the meeting rooms,” Dorian surmised. “Going any other way won’t cut it.”
