The fitted suit wasn’t my normal style, not helping my comfort level for where I was about to go and who I was going to meet. It had taken me my whole life to gain enough trust from Marcus to come to this meeting, and it was one more piece to the puzzle. I fidgeted with the black tie setting against my charcoal button-up shirt. The gray suit overtop it was new, typically tucked away at my shop. The only other suit I had was the one I wore at my mother’s funeral.

My phone buzzed in my pocket.

Your driver will be at Tankini’s at one.

I closed my eyes, my head thudding as it hit the headrest. I bought a beater car, wanting to be more discreet as I traveled around the city. Colt did an awesome job keeping the girls busy while I was gone, until they went rogue and all hell broke loose. Thankfully, I found a story to cover my ass, and ended up having the best day of my life with Lauren because of it.

I kissed Lauren goodbye a few hours ago, and now I sat in this beat-up Taurus a hundred feet down from YaYa’s house, mentally preparing myself to see the Cage.

Lauren was so close, and keeping myself in this car was difficult knowing she was only a few hundred feet away, sleeping in a warm bed. I wasn’t exactly up on my sleep, and curling around her was tempting.

A knock startled me against my window while I daydreamed.

I rolled my eyes and opened the door.

Riley slid inside, tugging his baseball cap down and peering out the back window. “I thought you were headed to Tankini’s?”

“We aren’t meeting for another few hours.” My eyes were on YaYa’s, waiting for Colt to walk out of the house. He was inside with the girls, and once YaYa kicked him out, he would sit outside her house in his car, making sure none of Marcus’s thugs got any ideas.

Riley followed my line of sight. “You bringing her in tonight? I thought you were going to wait until Friday?”

I swallowed. “No. I’ll bring the girl in on Friday.”

He patted my shoulder. “We’ll bust them before she gets hurt. I know you’re worried.”

I didn’t meet his eyes. “She’ll be damaged. They always are.”

To my surprise, Lauren opened the door, and Colt ran out behind her along with Marcy. I scowled and leaned over the steering wheel, curious what they were doing. I relaxed some when Lauren grabbed a bag from Colts car, then ran back up the steps.

“And what about her,” he asked, nodding his head toward Lauren after she had closed the door. “You going to bring her in along with the other one?”

My eyes darted to him. “They’re not touching Lauren.”

He frowned. “I don’t have to tell you how these people work, Vance. If he wants Lauren, he’ll get her. I’ll prepare my men to reach her first.”

My stomach felt like a rock. “She won’t be in town,”
