Casper never asked me why I took off or where I was off to, but I do send a text when I land.

Twenty-four hours. ~Callum J.

His response is just as fast, and nothing more than okay before I pocket my mobile. I’m turning my locator off, but the device will stay on until I’m back in the air and across international waters just in case something goes wrong.

No one but Ezra knows where I’m at or why, but he’ll erase every proof of our—my—being on US soil before sending a second plane for my private use. I’d left Casper with the other. The government doesn’t need that kind of information, not while investigating that bullshit wire fraud case, and Malcolm helped by letting me use his private jet and airstrip to land in Chicago after cleaning off Felix’s filth in the meantime.

He’s also moved our money again. Every cent. Something that gives security to our suppliers back home.

The tarmac is empty when I arrive, except for Kray who waits outside his large SUV. Once I’m close, he pushes off and holds out a hand. “Good to have you back,” he says, and I take it, shaking it quickly before tilting my head toward the car.

It’s been a few weeks since I’ve seen Aliana. A day feels like too many, and although she understands that duty binds me this once, I need to see her. The daily reports that Giannis turns in are shit in comparison to being near her.

They don’t fill that void, this ever-growing need that I can’t contain.

“Aliana’s home tonight. It’s been a busy time at the center, and she seems exhausted.” This I knew; Giannis has told me as much. Seems the last few weeks they’ve had an influx at the Conte House, and she’s been working late to help Aurora. “Is there anywhere you want to stop first, or…?”

“Straight to her house.”

“Done.” After a minute, he begins to thump his fingers on the steering wheel, and I know why. I’m waiting for what I know is coming. Kray settles after a minute, exhaling roughly. “I’m sorry, Callum. I let you down.”

“Am I angry? Yes,” I say, resting my head back with eyes closed. “However, they were at work. They take risks every day to help women in need, and I understand that. You stepped in and removed him the moment you realized what was happening.”

Kray chuckles and I raise a brow. “Miss Rubens emptied a can of mase on his face. Direct hit.”

“That’s my girl.”

“I was on my way in when he ran out and into me. Those women are exemplary—tough.”

“But…”

“It won’t happen again. I’m working on an idea to have someone on the inside.”

“Smart. Let me know when you have the specifics.”

We don’t talk the rest of the way. With each turn the vehicle takes and the closer to her home we get, my body thrums. It’s a different kind of energy. Just as pleasurable as taking a life, but with the memory of her taste still lingering in my mind, I’m throbbing.
