Chapter Six
“Dr.Badliss lookedaround at the men then paused to stare at Bane.“Now that they have been examined and treated, you can continue your conversation.”
Stone nodded.“I’m sorry to say that your pilot didn’t make it.The man saved our lives by holding that stick so we could jump.”
Shay looked saddened as he sighed heavily.“I will have to tell his family.One of my best pilots and a damn good man.”He looked over at the men.“Does anyone know who they were?”
Bane nodded.“I saw proof of who they were.The hitter showed me a tattoo he had on his wrist.”
“Proof in a tatt?”Shay asked.
“They were here on orders of Spencer Wagner,” Bane said emotionlessly.“The hitter had a bloody wolf face tatt.”
Shay just stared at him for a moment then growled, “The Blood Wolves?”
Bane nodded.
“Who are the Blood Wolves?”James asked as he stared at Bane.
Sam looked back and forth to ask in confusion, “Thewhoare wolves?”
Deke scoffed.“No Dad, I don’t think he means...”He shook his head.
Only Bane, Stone and Shay seemed to knowwhothey were.
Shay held out his hand.
Bane grasped it and helped him to sit up on the bed.
Shay winced in pain then he groaned and sat there for a couple of minutes while the room spun around him.
The men all waited as he got his shit together.Most of them had suffered injuries and had been in hospital beds before.
When he finally opened his eyes, Shay glared at everyone.“Fucking hell, how did Spencer know I was even trying to find him?No one knew where we were going today.”
Stone laid back on his bed and growled, “Well, someone knew.Wagner must have someone in your office working against you and for him.That bastard thinks money solves everything.”
“And that person caused the death of my pilot.”Shay looked pissed.
“So who is this Spencer Wagner?And who are the Blood Wolves?”Mountain asked.
Shay stared at the floor for a moment as if he needed to get himself straight and calm.Then he looked up at Mountain.“Spencer is a very wealthy businessman.He also runs guns from here to Europe.We know it, he knows it but we can’t find a way to legally prove it in court.He has bribed judges, lawyers and customs people.We’ve had whistleblowers come forward but they refuse to testify, a couple have disappeared completely.Only to be found dead a few days later.He thinks just because he has the money, that he has the power as well.Stone and I were on our way to see another lead today then Spencer took my helicopter down.”
Hound frowned.“What’s this guy’s name again?”
Bane turned to him to reply, “Spencer Wagner.”
Hound shook his head.“I saw that name on the paperwork we found at Owens’ place.And some of that paperwork were invoices for weapon sales.”
Shay took yet another minute to get his head to stop spinning and then said, “You still got that paperwork?Please tell me you got it.”
