Chapter Sixteen
âHuh?â Trey asked. âWhat are you talking about? What do you mean you canât find Nana?â
âShe called me,â Charlyce explained. âShe told me she had to go grab some things and then check on someone else from church. She said she was going to evacuate on one of the soldier buses because the roads were too crowded, and I couldnât get to her anyway without getting stuck. She told me she would call me once she got on the bus, but she never called.â She sighed. âSo I went to go check her house. The traffic was bad, but she wasnât there. They had those numbers in the window like they were talking about on the news for the people counts, but the numbers showed she was gone when the soldiers came. I tried calling her, but her phone keeps going to voicemail.â
Trey took a deep breath and slowly let it out. His heart pounded. He wasnât going to yell at his aunt in the middle of a massive counties-wide evacuation, but he needed a few things clarified. An old woman shouldnât be wandering LA in all the chaos.
Wait one damned second.
Treyâs grandmotherâs words floated into his thoughts.
No, I want to die in this house.
âDamn it. I think sheâs still in LA,â Trey explained. âI canât believe this. Of all the times to pull some stubborn stunt!â
âI donât understand. What should I do?â
âWhere are you right now?â Trey asked. âAnd can you drive?â
Charlyce sighed. âThe roads are still pretty jammed up.â
âThen go find the National Guard or go to one of the portals,â Trey suggested. âGet out of there as soon as possible.â
There was no way in hell he would risk losing two relatives.
âI canât just leave her,â Charlyce complained. âWhat if something happens? What if the thing blows up?â
Trey sighed. âDonât worry. Iâll handle finding her. Remember who my girlfriend is. Sheâs got a way of finding things and people. It ainât like Nana knows counter-magic shit, even if sheâs hiding out.â
âIâm sorry, Trey. I should have gone straight to pick her up like you told me.â
âIt ainât your fault. She tricked you.â Trey stood and frowned. âI told you how she was complaining about not wanting to move, but I ainât letting her get hurt, even if I have to drag her back. You just get out of LA and leave everything else to me. Iâm a bounty hunter. I can find one old woman.â
