“They took her about ten minutes ago.”
I’d somehow just missed her. “Took her where?”
“Back to Dolan.” This guy didn’t need to be told who we were. He knew.
“Where?” I growled.
“I don’t know.”
“I bet you do.” Grabbing him by the injured leg, I listened to his screams as I dragged him up over the bank.
My brothers were already piling dead bodies off to the side. Ainsley came over. “I tried calling for Rae. No answer.”
“Owen either,” Warrant said, a grim look on his face.
“Where’s the cop?” I asked the guy I was dragging.
“I don’t know! I don’t know! We didn’t find him before you showed up!”
“He must still be here somewhere,” Warrant said. He didn’t wait, he just took off into the darkness again, looking for Owen.
“Tie him up,” I told Jury as he came over with some rope from our cage.
“What about Rae?” Ainsley asked.
“This fucker said they took her about ten minutes ago.”
“Where?” she asked me.
“That’s what I’m going to find out.” I went over to the cage and grabbed a bag out of the back. Jury wasn’t the only one who kept extra supplies in the different rides, just in case.
Warrant, Torque, and Cynic were looking around, calling out Owen’s name. I’d help find him later. After I figured out where they’d taken Rae. Going back over to the Iron Circle shitbag, I squatted and began rifling around through the bag.
“What’s in there?” he asked, sounding nervous. “I told you what I know.”
“People always seem to know more than they realize,” I said, pulling out a bone saw. “Sometimes you just have to jog their memory, or give them the right motivation before they’ll talk.” My eyes met his. “Know what this is?”
His throat bobbed as he swallowed. He shook his head.
“It’s a bone saw. It’ll let me cut through pretty much any bone in your body that I want to.” I pulled out a tourniquet. “But since I don’t want you to die just yet, I’ll make sure you don’t bleed out right away.”
He was breathing faster. If I was taking his pulse it would be elevated past a dangerous level. After slicing his jeans to the knee, I placed the tourniquet around his calf. Headlights flashed over us as more vehicles pulled in around us. I glanced up and saw Cypher heading my way. “Rae’s gone. They took her to Dolan. The others are looking for Owen. This guy claims they never found him.”
Cypher nodded. “We’ll find Owen. You do whatever you need to do to find Rae’s location.”
Focusing back on my work, I checked the tourniquet. He was ready. Giving him a toothy smile, I took his boot and sock off while the man watched in horror. I placed the bone saw at his ankle, right above where his foot met his leg. “You should know this blade is very sharp. You might think that’s a mercy, compared to cutting with a dull saw, but a dull saw just doesn’t make those pristine cuts that I like. This will cut like butter, have that ankle off in a matter of seconds.
“Please! Don’t. Jesus this is crazy. You’re insane.” The rest of his words came out as screams as I started sawing.
I held his leg at the knee, leaning on it to hold him still as I worked. He was flailing as much as he could while being bound and having his foot cut off. Blood sprayed as I hit an artery, but that was the whole point of the tourniquet. I’d keep him alive long enough to tell me what I needed to know.
“I’ll talk! Oh God! I’ll talk!” His screams were piercing. “They took her to that old saw mill!”
Pausing, I looked up at him. There was blood spattered all down my front, but that didn’t bother me. “I thought you didn’t know?” My eyes narrowed. “You’re just lying to save your ass.”
“I’m not! I swear. That was where we were supposed to meet up with the rest of the crew as soon as we found the shipment! And the cop!”
“What shipment?” Cypher asked from behind me.
