Chapter 9

C aine jerked his gaze to the rearview mirror. Something heavy had landed in the back of his truck. Landon knocked on the glass behind him, then made a thumbing motion to the side of the road.

Gritting his teeth, Caine gripped the steering wheel tight and for several seconds considered swerving to the side, just to knock the Alpha on his ass. He was so pissed at Landon for waiting an hour and a half to wake him, he could feel his Musk form howling to be free, itching for a fight. The tips of his fingers tingled, his wereclaws scratching just below the surface.

When Landon pounded a dent in the roof above his head, he finally pulled his truck to the side of the interstate. Laird drove up behind him in Landon’s truck with Kaitlyn in the seat beside him. Roman stood in the bed of their truck, his hair windblown to hell, grinning like a fool at the icy wonderland around him. The idiot.

Why had Landon chased him down? He was almost to the city at this point. He sure as hell wasn’t going back to Lupreda land.

Before he could say a word, Landon had jumped down and climbed into the passenger seat. “I told you not to leave without me,” Landon snarled.

“And I told you to wake me in an hour,” Caine challenged, pulling the truck back onto the road.

Landon’s low growl was interrupted by his cell phone’s ring. Grabbing the phone from his belt, he flipped it open and read the text message.

“Hell and damnation,” he mumbled, then hung up and called another number.

“What is it?” Caine’s shoulders tensed.

“My office has been broken into again,” Landon said before he spoke into the phone. “Gabriel, I got an automatic call. Can you pull up the monitoring system and tell me what body temperature the sensors are registering?”

Caine heard Gabriel’s rumble across the line. “One hundred and three, Landon. Definitely not human, unless the human’s sick as a dog.” Gabriel snorted at his own joke, then quickly sobered. “You want me to cut the backup call to the police?”

“Cut it,” Landon said in a brisk tone before he closed the cell and addressed Caine. “Gotta be Velius. Let’s see how fast this souped-up rig of yours can go.”

When he gunned the truck, Laird honked and followed suit. Caine glanced in his rearview mirror to see Roman now hanging out the passenger window, shaking his fist and yelling, “Yeah, baby! Go!”

Caine shook his head. “We can’t take him anywhere.”

“At least he’s a talented nut,” Landon grunted, then glanced his way. “If we can catch one of them there, we’ll do whatever it takes to find out where they’ve taken Emma.”

Landon had just given Caine his full support, surprising the hell out of him. Caine gripped the steering wheel hard and dipped his head in a curt nod, swallowing the lump of appreciation in his throat.

“You will follow my lead. Understood?” Landon ordered when they entered the outskirts of the city.
