CHAPTER ELEVEN

Kotah

Jaxx and I descend to the ground as planned and wait at the bottom of the dumbwaiter chute for our mates. They don’t come. Nerves turn into worry and worry twists into the realization that something went wrong. The others aren’t right behind us as they should’ve been. “We need to go back.”

“With the elevators locked, it’ll take too long to get up to the thirtieth floor again.”

“What do we do?”

Jaxx curses. “I don’t know. I don’t how to help them.”

The buzz of a text has us both outing our phones. It’s a status update from Hawk. Trapped and going airborne. Brant’s hit. Head to the Hudson.

“Oh, shit,” Jaxx says, his thumbs flying over his screen. “Okay, Lukas is grabbin’ the truck and comin’ for us.”

The scream of rubber on concrete brings a black SUV barreling through the parking garage at us. The two of us pile in and Lukas hits the gas. “Where am I going?”

Jaxx grabs his seatbelt and buckles in. “Hawk says head to the Hudson.”

Lukas frowns. “That’s really fucking helpful.”

“Sorry. That’s all we got.”

The street looks like a warzone: the FCO staff has pooled out onto the concrete frontage, the police cars pulling up with their lights flashing, the cars slowing and honking, trying to figure out what’s going on.

“Do y’all see anythin’?” Jaxx leans against the dash and is searching the skies as we drive.

I open the moon roof and stand on the middle bench. “Not yet. A mythical phoenix flaming her way across the Manhattan skyline will cause one major exposure incident.”

“We’ll burn that bridge when we come to it.”

“There.” I point but, of course, they can’t see that. “Two o’clock. She’s heading back towards New Jersey.”

Thankfully, Lukas knows how to drive these streets because Jaxx and I would be tied up in traffic and no use to them as backup. “Keep an eye on them, Wolf.”

Like I could look anywhere else.

Jaxx joins me in the open roof and I point to the orange streak in the sky. “Damn, she’s a sight.”

“She is.”

“Do you see Barron?” Lukas shouts inside the truck.

“No, but it’s hard to see anything around her. She’s giving off a lot of light.”

“I see Brant, though,” Jaxx says, pointing. “She’s got him in her talon.”

My jaw drops. “He’s got to weigh a ton.”

“She’s spectacular, Lukas. Not only is she flyin’, but she’s also airliftin’ our bear to safety.” Jaxx and I are still smiling up in awe when he looks at me and frowns. “Wait. Why are we headin’ for the Hudson?”

I grab my hair and pull it back out of my face. “What do you mean? Why the worried face?”

“Because Brant can’t swim. He told me that the first week when Calli got rocket-launchered into the farmer’s pond. A bear’s muscle density makes him sink like a solid boulder in the water.”

I scratch my head and track their descent in the sky. “Do you think he mentioned that to them?”

Jaxx shrugs. “Was he conscious? Do they have a plan?
