Chapter 26 - Hudson
HUDSON
“Where the fuck is she going?”
Marcus cocks his head at me and frowns. He can’t hear me over the noise of the helicopter, and I’m not looking for a response because he doesn’t have the answer. All I can do is watch the dot on my laptop that shows Willow driving out of Hope and onto the highway.
At least she took the phone so I can track her.
I tap my foot and peer out of the window as the Hope airfield comes into view. There’s a knot in my stomach that’s been sitting heavy since I woke up and found Willow gone.
I should be with her, but the damn woman chose to go off on her own rather than trust me. It makes me sick to think about her going to meet the Street Kings on her own.
After what we shared last night, I can’t believe she didn’t wake me. I’d have gotten Marcus and the team on the case, and we would have worked the problem together.
I run a hand over my stubble. I suppose that’s why she went on her own. Willow’s impatient and impulsive, and now I’m watching a red dot on a map and hoping like hell she’s okay.
As soon as the bird touches down, I’m running across the field to Bedrock Security. Marcus is right behind me as we head straight to his car, where a driver waits for us.
Inside, there’s a cache of weapons. Behind us is another car with a team—that’s how you go after bad guys, with two cars full of trained men and a bunch of weapons, not one woman armed with nothing but her smile.
I buckle up and open the laptop. The dot stopped at the side of the highway. But as I watch, it begins to move again.
Does she know we’re tracking her? I keep my eyes on the red dot as she moves down the highway. As long as she has her phone, I’ll find her.
“I’m coming for you, Willow.”
