Chapter 24

Harry curled up on his bed, tears streaming from his eyes. Almost a whole week had passed since he’d last seen Rory. There were no leads to go on. The police were at a loss as to what could have happened. They didn’t know where she’d gone or where to look.

Lucia had taken leave because she was absolutely destroyed. Harry had shown up at work and done what he could to keep his head above water, but he knew if he didn’t get his shit together, he would be moved to a non-operator position and have to work his ass off just to get back on a team.

His phone rang, and he glanced at the screen, praying it was Rory. It wasn’t. Bear was calling. He thought about not answering, but he finally swiped his finger over the screen before it bounced to voicemail.

“Hey, get out of bed. I’m almost at your place.”

“Fuck,” Harry said.

“The whole gang is on their way.”

“Goddammit. I’m sulking, and I want to be left alone.”

“Tough shit,” Bear said. “We’re going to spend the day looking for her.”

“Fuck. I’m not getting out of this, am I?”

“No. You’re stuck with us. So you’d better get used to it, buddy. We’re not going to let you sink. We’re lifting you up because we won’t let you down.”

“What if she’s never found?”

Bear’s car shut off, and he heard the door slam. Bear was heading up. “We’ve lost friends. And I know it hurts like a bitch, but you will recover. You will pick yourself up off the floor. You won’t move on, but you’ll move to find the person who did this and get revenge.”

The buzzer for the entry door sounded, and he let Bear in. He rolled out of bed and stumbled into the main room, waiting for Bear to say he was at the door.

“I don’t know if I can.”

“Dude, you passed BUDs and all the other crap we had to go through. You can do this. I have zero doubts that you will prevail. You are stronger than you think, and you have us backing you up. By the way, I’m outside your unit. Let me in.”

Harry opened the door, and Bear pointed to the bathroom. “Go shower. I’ll let everyone else in and make some breakfast.”

Harry nodded. “Sure.” He didn’t know if anything Bear had said would come to pass, but he couldn’t give up on Rory yet. They weren’t in an official relationship, but he cared deeply for her.

After he finished in the shower, he heard the guys talking. It sounded like they were all there and ready to start looking. The scent of bacon wafted in, and his stomach clenched. He hadn’t eaten dinner the night before. He’d been skipping meals since learning that Rory had gone missing. If he kept skipping meals, he wouldn’t even be close to fifty percent. He had to maintain his strength.

He dressed in shorts and a T-shirt. When he stepped out into the main room, the guys turned to face him.
