Chapter Five

Mick couldn’t believe his luck had finally turned. When he’d finished putting together his trap, he’d headed into town and followed the pregnant woman he’d identified months ago as being involved with the shifters, but she’d never been alone. After three days of it, Mick had started to worry the shifters had somehow caught onto his plan, although, he couldn’t see how. He’d been extremely careful in his planning.

Then today he nearly didn’t believe what he was watching when that big shifter bastard dropped her off at a beauty salon, and left her unprotected. He’d recalled when his wife had been pregnant. Deb had gone to the toilet every ten minutes toward the end. So he’d parked behind the salon and kept watch through the glass of the rear door, waiting for his target to come to him. It had been an assumption that the bathrooms would be at the rear of the store, but most of these smaller shops were set up like that, and he’d figured if he hadn’t seen her by lunch, he’d go in and check things out.

But he’d guessed right, and the little blonde came straight to him. Now she was bound, gagged, and enclosed in the trunk of his car. As he made his way out of town, he grabbed his phone to make some calls. He had a Trigger at the docks waiting to hear from him. It was the work of a moment to text the man that he was springing his trap today and would hopefully have cargo ready to go soon. The other man confirmed things were ready whenever he was.

Excellent.

The rest of the drive, he let his mind wander with what would happen after all this was over. The look on Deb and Zoe’s faces when he arrived home. The promotion from Trigger. Ah, it was going to be so sweet.

By the time he pulled into his campsite, he was softly humming. Today was going to be a good day. He pulled the lever to pop the trunk, grabbed his rope, then went around to his captive. When he first caught sight of her, he frowned with worry. She was soaking wet with sweat. The weather was way too cold for someone to sweat this much, even in an enclosed space. He shook his head. What did it matter if she was ill? She’d be loaded up with the others soon, and no longer his problem.

He lifted her from the car, glad when whatever the hell was wrong with her made her not fight him like she had when he’d put her in the trunk. It was the work of a moment to get her tied to the tree he’d marked out earlier. Being fast and efficient was going to be the name of the game today. He wasn’t sure how long it would take the shifters to notice her missing and come looking for her. Or if they could somehow track him. His plan was to get his trap set, then call the blonde’s shifter to tell him to come get her.
