Chapter 24
Steve clenched his phone so tightly it was a miracle it didn’t crack. His body trembled with shock—panic and rage coursed through him.
He had to stay focused. If not, worry would kill him before he found Shane.
Pacing back and forth, he dialed Shane’s number again. The phone rang endlessly. No answer.
"Come on, Shane... pick up!" he muttered, frustration rising.
Unable to wait, he called Thomas, one of Shane’s men. Thomas picked up immediately, his voice shaky.
"He...hello, boss."
"Where is Shane?" Steve barked.
"We... we don’t know," Thomas stammered.
"What?" Steve’s eyes widened. "How can you not know? You were with him!"
Thomas hesitated. "Boss, after we set the house on fire like Shane ordered, he disappeared. We thought he went home."
"Find him," Steve snapped. "Don’t come back until you do."
