CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN

Reid

Leaving Carrie isn’t easy, not now or ever, but right now, I have ten shades of anger going on, and a hell of a lot of baggage in my head, the kind that makes me cut my enemy and win. With her in danger, and she is, I need to hold onto those feelings. Carrie won’t let me. She changes me and it’s all good, except right now with Elijah. I don’t give a fuck about his mental health. I care about Carrie and I need to act now, but in a smart, calculated, and cold way.

I exit our apartment and wait until I hear her turn the locks before I start walking. Once I’m a good distance from the door, out of any chance of being heard, I pull my phone from my pocket and dial Royce. “Make sure Carrie doesn’t leave the apartment alone.”

“And where are you going?”

“I’m not going to kill Elijah,” I say, heading down the building stairs. “Not literally. That’s not my style and you know it. Where is he now? I don’t want any surprises.”

“At home with his wife.”

Which means Carrie should be safe with Walker watching her and him. “Call me if that changes.”

“I can shadow you,” he offers, “wherever you’re going.”

“I’d tell you if I wanted a damn shadow, Royce. Just protect my fiancée and find out what set off Elijah.” I disconnect and dial Gabe.

“Are you home?” I ask when he answers.

“Yes.”

“Alone?”

“I can be.”

“Then be. I’ll be there in ten minutes.” I hang up and exit the stairwell, my mind chasing a mental image of Carrie facing off with Elijah and how easily he could have hurt her. No, he could have fucking killed her. I’m not going to sit back and let that happen.

I exit the building and welcome the cold gust of wind that greets me. Cold is good. Cold is without emotion and sympathy. Cold is simply brutal and unforgiving and that’s exactly how I feel right now. The places my mind is going are not good and I know the one person who will go there with me is my brother. I all but jog to his building, interrupted briefly when Carrie tries calling me, and as much as I need to hear her voice, I need to speak with my brother first. Once I’m at his door, ringing the bell, it opens and a gorgeous blonde with her hair in disarray greets me.

“At least you’re not another woman,” she snaps, all but running me over to get out of the door, obviously pissed off that Gabe booted her. “Though it wouldn’t surprise me,” she mumbles.

It’s moments like these that I’m reminded of how reliable my brother is to me. I don’t call us close, and yet he knows me as no one but Carrie knows me. I enter his apartment, lock the door, and cross the living area to the open kitchen on the other side, industrial beams and pipes running over our heads. Gabe is brewing coffee.
