Chapter Nineteen

Jax walked the perimeter of the house, making sure the handcrafted security system was still in place. It was difficult in the dark, but it had to be done before they retired for the night. The air coming off the lake was downright cold and it didn’t help that the wind had picked up. He rubbed his hands together in order to keep them warm, blowing hot air into them as he walked. Spending the day with Emily had given him a glimpse of what they could have and he found himself having those same feelings as when he’d first met her. Time had changed nothing.

Walking to the far edge of the property next to the border of the long drive, Jax carefully studied the area. There were three places that Kevin or Ethan would be staked out, but the dark prevented him from seeing too much. He whistled, knowing that if they were there, they would return the sound. Sure enough, the mimicked echo broke through the still of the night. Jax headed that way.

He was no more than twenty yards in when Kevin’s dark form appeared before him. “You want to hand us over to Ryland on a silver platter?”

“Ryland arrived in Paris this morning,” Jax informed his teammate. “I just spoke with Crest and Taryn seems to have found her magic fingers once more. Obviously he used an alias, but she was able to obtain CCTV footage from De Gaulle.”

“She said she was working on some facial recognition program,” Kevin said, nodding his head in approval. “Unless he changed his bone structure, regardless of make-up or wigs the database will vet him out. Unfortunately, that doesn’t help us. He’s going after Emily’s aunt. Does she know this?”

Jax shook his head. “Not yet. Crest’s man that he’s using in France has been able to make contact with Beatrice. He’s taken her to an undisclosed location until Connor can get his ass to Paris and take this fucker out.”

“Think he’ll stay there long enough for that to happen? If Beatrice isn’t easily accessible, Ryland will just come back to the States and pick up where he left off.”

“He’s scrambling and you know it,” Jax said, shoving his hands in his pockets. He’d left his gloves in the SUV. “Ryland has no bead on our location and the only string available was Emily’s aunt. Take that away and what’s left?”

“A desperate man,” Kevin said, shifting back on the heels of his boots.

“He doesn’t strike me as the type to ever be desperate, but he will be pissed.” Jax had been given time to process the information and he was relatively sure he knew how this would play out. “Crest tell you that Schultz has things in motion? I figure we’ll get a reprieve until we have to get Emily back to New York. The Security Council will want to hear from her exactly what went down, regardless of the physical evidence they are presented with. We’re talking about sending
