Chapter 46

46

Gunnar was working at his desk when Dom came running in. "Grab your gear. We have trouble."

Gunnar had suspected as much. The other man's face told a story of its own. "What do we know?"

The alarm sounded. The one that meant someone was in serious trouble.

"I don't know anything. Just that it was Heather's address, and Daniel is putting out an all-hands-on-deck call immediately."

That was all Gunnar needed to hear.

Fear for Heather was strong. Something had happened. And it was bad.

That woman wouldn't have called for help unless it was the direst circumstances. Not with the way she didn't trust the TSP one bit. Fear was strong for her, for the gremlin, for Bonnie, and all the kids who had made room for him.

What in the hell had happened now?

Miguel came barreling in. "Gunnar, man. I've been looking for you. I need you to listen to me."

Gunnar's blood chilled in his veins. As Daniel and Lila came running in. Miguel didn't look like that without reason. Not him. "What's going on? What's happened?"

Miguel looked at them all. "Heather is missing. Bonnie claimed that Powell was with her. Powell's car was found at her brother Alex's place. And…they've been missing for at least three hours. People are searching Hughes Heights for signs of them now. Jake's coordinating."

Gunnar's entire world just froze in that moment. "Powell's missing. She's…gone. She's in trouble."

Miguel's hand landed on his shoulder. "Let's go get her back."

Gunnar was already half out the door.
