INK
“Iguess I’m going to head home,” I said and got to my feet. “Thanks again for dinner.”
“Hello,” Dice answered. “Slow down, man. I’m going to put you on speaker so Ink can hear, too.”
“Raven called. She’s at a party with Blaze and said they need help. She was whispering and wouldn’t tell me much, but if she called me instead of Falcon, something is really wrong. I have a feeling I’m going to need backup, but not Dad or Dash,” Flint blurted.
Dice looked at me and mouthed, “Get Edge.”
“All right, man. Tell me where we’re going.”
While Dice got the details, I ran across the street to Edge’s house and pounded on the front door. “Blaze and Raven are at a party and called Flint for help,” I said as soon as he opened the door. “He wants backup.”
“Evie!” Edge shouted. “I gotta?—”
“Go,” she said. “Be careful.”
Dice was backing out of his driveway when we turned to run across the street. We met him at the road and hopped into his truck.
“Did you get any more info from Flint?” I asked.
“No. He didn’t know anything else.”
“So, we don’t know what we’re walking into?” Edge asked.
“No, but it can’t be anything good if an MC president’s daughter and granddaughter call for help.”
“I’m more concerned that they aren’t leaving on their own,” Dice said. “It makes me think they were drugged or are being held there.”
“Fuck me,” I groaned. “If either of those things is true, there won’t be enough of whoever did it to go around.”
“Is that Flint?” Edge asked and pointed to the truck in front of us.
“Yeah,” Dice confirmed.
“Thank fuck,” I said. I knew he wouldn’t wait for us to go inside if he got there first.
“Call him,” Dice said. “Let’s try to coordinate before we get there.”
“Is that you on my ass?” Flint asked, his voice coming through the speakers of Dice’s truck.
“It is,” Dice said. “Edge is with us, too. How do you want to handle this?”
“I was going to call when we get there. If she doesn’t answer or can’t come outside, we’ll go in and get them.”
“We’re five minutes out. I’ll try calling her now,” I said.
“Go ahead,” Flint said. “I’ll stay on the line while you do.”
I quickly dialed Raven’s number and put my phone on speaker.
“Hello,” Raven whispered.
“Raven, it’s Ink. Are you okay?”
“No.”
