Little Light: I wish I could believe you.
Me: I will never lie to you, Little Light.
Little Light: I have to go.
Letting out a growl, sitting my phone down on the table. I look up, locking eyes with Stone.
“Everything good?” Cade looks at me with suspicion in his eyes.
“Yeah, I got a lead. Stone, wanna roll?” Looking at Stone, standing up and walking toward the door.
“Keep us posted on what you find out.” Atticus says as we walk out the door.
Climbing into the car, starting it up, and heading out of the driveway.
“What aren’t you telling me, man? I know when something is up. Who texted you?” Looking over at me with a pissed off look. I don’t say anything, and continue to drive.
“Who was it?” He asks again, getting more pissed by the second.
“I told you I had a lead. That’s where we’re going.” I respond, keeping my tone neutral.
I’m headed to that piece of shit Carl. He will fucking pay for touching what isn’t his. I have big plans for his rapist ass. Let’s see how he likes to be fucked.
“Listen, man. I gotta tell you some shit, but I need you to be level-headed so we can handle this shit.” Turning to look him in the eye, “I mean it, Stone.”
“What the fuck is going on?” he asks through gritted teeth..
“It’s about her. She’s been,” before I can get the rest of the words out, Stone has his hand wrapped around my throat.
The car swerves and I have to push on the brakes, slamming the car into park. It stops with a squeal and a jolt.
He squeezes tighter, “What about her?” his eyes are murderous,
I tap at his arm, “You better start talking, or so help me.” He releases my throat. Taking in lungfuls of air. I rub at my throat and look over at him.
“It wasn’t me, man. When I found out where she was I snuck her in a phone and kept an eye on her. I only stepped away when I got the call for family dinner.” Looking over at him.
“Where is she? We have to go get her, now. Cade is going to fucking kill you for keeping this to yourself.” He says, shaking his head.
“Fuck. I wasn’t sure who to trust, man.” I lay my head back against the seat and sigh.
“What do you mean? From us? The fuck man, you know we don’t keep secrets. Where is all this coming from?” He says, with a raised brow.
“She got hurt, man. She was raped.” He punches me in the face once, twice, three times. I feel the flow of blood down my nose.
“If you don’t start talking, I swear to god I’ll make sure you are drinking from a straw for the rest of your cocksucking life.” He says, pissed off.
“I snatched the foster dad, let’s go ask him.” I say, popping my nose back in place. “You broke my nose, man.”
“You're lucky that’s all I did. Now drive and fill me in before I call the others.” He says, pulling out his phone.
Walking into the house with Stone right behind me, I walk into the kitchen. I have Carl tied with his hands behind his back and bent over the table. I walk over, slapping him in the face, causing him to stir.
“Wakey, wakey, asshole.”
“Let me fucking go, you piece of shit.” He screams, and I let out a chuckle.
“Who’s this?” Stone asks.
