CHAPTER TWELVE

Delaney was so stupid. She’d gotten comfortable. She should never have left Caleb’s side and now they were on the run and she wasn’t with him. She did trust Eli and Ava but they weren’t invincible.

Dominick pressed the phone icon on the car screen and dialed a number. “Tex. He found us. They are converging on the safe house. We’re all out. I’ll send you the coordinates. If you hurry you might be able to round up a few of them.”

“I can have a team in the air in twenty minutes. With any luck, they’ll still be there going through the place. Let me know when you’re at your next location.”

“Hey, Tex.” Delaney called out.

There was a pause. “Delaney. Hey. I’m so sorry about all of this. I should never have brought you into this.”

She appreciated the apology even though it wasn’t necessary. “I’m glad you told me who my brother really was. It gave me the clarity to realize I needed to get out of there.” It also brought Dominick, Ava, and Eli into her life but she wasn’t going to admit that out loud.

“Are you guys okay? If you need anything just ask Crash, he’ll get it for you.”

“Thanks. He’s taking good care of us.”

“Glad to hear that.” He cleared his throat. “Crash I’ll be in touch with an update.”

Dominick ended the call and typed an address into the car’s GPS.

“We’re going to Louisiana?”

“Yep. Lots of woods to hide in. Settle in, we’ve got a long drive.”

Two hours later Delaney was pulled from a very sexy dream starring Dominick when his phone rang. “Tex, what’s the update?”

“Mason wasn’t there. We picked up a few of his guys. They gave us a location where Mason is working out of. We’re sending a team in after dark.”

“Good job. Keep us posted. We have another nine hours to the next house.”

“Stay sharp. Talk to you soon.”

Dominick ended the call and looked over at her. “Sorry that woke you up. I’m getting updates from Seeds. They’re all good. They thought they had a tail so they’re changing their route for a bit so we’ll beat them there.”

She rubbed her eyes. “This is all so insane. I can’t believe this is my life.”

“You said yourself you’re a crime family. You really never thought you’d be here?”

She gasped. “Excuse me?”

“I’m sorry, I’m not trying to be rude but come on. If you break the law it will eventually catch up with you. Why are you getting upset though? It’s not like you were doing anything illegal right?”

What an asshole. “I spent the money my family made. I hung out with the other families. Doesn’t that make me guilty by association? Aren’t I an accomplice for not turning them in?”

He blew out a breath. “I’m sorry. You said you went off to college to get away from them. I assumed you were against all of it too.”

He had a point but that didn’t make it any easier to hear. “I did leave because I wanted a normal life.
