“Jerry gave me the basics,” King said as he joined them. “Livie works for Georgia Financial, doesn’t she?”
Dain didn’t need anything else; he saw the truth in King’s expression. “How many combatants?”
“More than one; that’s all Jerry knows. They received a phone call from a female that was cut short. Officers responding to the call found the doors locked. When they tried to force entry, the suspects showed themselves—and their weapons. Threats against the employees. The cops backed off.”
Following procedure. Dain understood it even as his heart protested.
“SWAT is on site now, setting up. The Crisis Negotiation Team is en route. Unfortunately that puts us in a holding pattern.”
“The call from the female, who was it?”
King shook his head. “Jerry didn’t have a name. Why?”
Because he needed to know if it had been Livie. Because he needed to know if his wife was alive before he completely lost every bit of the control he was known for.
He needed his wife, damn it. He couldn’t breathe without her. Couldn’t imagine waking up a single morning without her beside him, safe and sound. He wouldn’t—no, couldn’t accept anything else.
If that meant he had to be the one to make her safe, he would. Or die trying.
