FORD

I sit in my truck in front of the diner Grace works at, getting ready to go inside to pick up her son. I called her boss and explained that her ex is in town and has Grace against her will. I assured him I’m handling it, but I needed to make sure that Asher was safe. It took a lot of work, and finally I had to call in a favor with the local police to visit Joe at his house. He agreed I could have Asher, if and only if Asher agreed he wanted to go with me. I’m fairly confident he will, but if he refuses, I’ll just have to put men on Joe’s house and move in for a bit. That’s all I can do. I know without a doubt that Grace’s ex will come after his son. I’m going to protect him, and I will get his mother back.

I’m more than a little frustrated. My entire day after finding the assholes who took Grace has been spent on the phone. First, I called Joe and then my contact on the local police force. Next, I called Vector. I let him know I had found Grace’s whereabouts. I warned him about the two men that had taken her, their names, as well as confirming they were part of the Wretched Rebels. I’m having Grunt follow-up with the Wretched Rebels and making sure they know Grace is off limits. If they are after her, there will be war. It’s up to them how they take that, but it’s not just a threat—it’s a promise. Honestly, I’m still unsure why those two assholes took her. I can’t figure out how Grace’s ex fits into any of this. Were they working for him? That doesn’t seem likely because if they did, I doubt he would have left them dead beside the road. At the very least, he would have taken them somewhere more private. The Bratva has a certain way of dealing with traitors and loose ends. Nothing about this is making sense—which definitely adds to my frustration. Vector once again offered help in getting Grace back and I thanked him but let him know I already had a call into the Levkin brothers and was pretty sure I had it under control. I did agree to call him if Ivan didn’t call me back and agree to help. I like Vector, but I saw the pain in Grace’s eyes when she had to talk to him. I wanted him to know that as much as I appreciated it, I needed to make sure my woman comes first, and their past had hurt her. I didn’t want to take part in reminding her of whatever happened between the two of them. Vector is a good man from all I’ve ever seen, but he hurt Grace that much is clear. Still, his fuck-up is clearly my gain.

Just as I’m about to open the door to the truck Hangman lent me, my cell rings.
