“I’m glad,” she said. “Now what?”
“Now?” Sunny shrugged. “They see everything they can find, charge them, then we wait for the court date.”
“That’s good news,” I replied. “Any news on my sister?”
“That? Nothing.” He sighed. “But I can tell you that every law enforcement agency in the state is looking for them.” He smiled. “I had a few favors to pull and just sayin’, but you’ve done a lot of good work over the years with your investigations. Not only do you have me putting in a good word, but Free has been shouting and singing praises left and right. They’ve pulled just as many, if not more, favors than me to help find your sister. Not to mention the Souls Chapel Revenants MC is still out there…” He looked at me, then at Aodhan. “Y’all keep behaving, okay?”
Aodhan snorted.
They’d stopped behaving after the others had come up empty-handed after a week.
“That’s, unfortunately, what I thought,” he grumbled. “Folsom. Kobe. JP.”
He left, clapping Aodhan on the back as he went.
“Now,” Aodhan said. “Anyone want the update I brought?”
“Of course,” I said.
Aodhan’s eyes went to the girl on my left.
“Though it wasn’t me, or Cassius, or any of us that found it.” He jerked his chin in the direction of JP. “This one did.”
I squeezed my eyes tightly shut.
“Please tell me she didn’t hack anything illegal and get caught.” I groaned.
“I would never,” JP gasped, clearly affronted. “Getting caught is for amateurs.”
Folsom choked on a laugh.
I pinched the bridge of my nose very carefully.
Aodhan informed us that he had a lead on my sister and her husband, and Wake, Bain, Etienne, Cassius and Davis were following up on it.
“She found their faces in a facial recognition database,” Aodhan said. “The guys left about thirty minutes ago. They’re in Santa Rosa, California.”
“Big city,” I mused.
“Big city and lots of cameras with live video feeds.” Folsom smiled. “Good job, baby.”
JP flicked her hair backwards, then huffed on her nails and buffed them on her t-shirt. “I’m good.”
“And humble.” Folsom rolled her eyes.
CHAPTER 23
Always read the fine print.
I’m pregnant.
-Folsom
FOLSOM
I was there to watch her being brought into the jail.
She was escorted by a sheriff’s deputy who’d switched with a police officer from San Angelo. She also had about eighteen bikers following her the whole way, some from Free—Sam, Sam’s brother-in-law, James, and Sam’s three sons-in-law—as well as Wake, Bain, Cassius, Etienne and Davis. Then there were a few that’d hitched a ride halfway.
All in all, there was no way in hell she would be slipping out of custody. Not on their watch.
I crossed my arms across my chest and watched as they escorted the two of them into the jail through the back door.
The moment the door closed, I made my move, walking around the front entrance and straight inside.
The jail was a flurry of activity. An arrest had been made, and that arrest had been sung from the rooftops because Gator Bait MC was special to the area, and even the cops liked them and the good they’d done.
Needless to say, everyone was excited that the persons that’d hurt one of their own had been found, which was why nobody noticed as I entered and watched right along with them.
Myen was processed at the same time as Dennis, though whereas Dennis was taken to an interrogation room, Myen was escorted into a holding cell with four other ladies inside.
I went to the interrogation room window along with everyone else and watched as Sunny started his line of questioning.
“Why did you shoot Kobe Sano, your wife’s brother?” Sunny asked.
Dennis winced. “I was interested in the life insurance policy payout.”
“You were, or your wife was?” Sunny asked for clarification.
“I…we…we both were,” he admitted.
I listened as he explained their entire plan, from start to finish. Something that’d only started brewing the moment that their meal ticket, Myen and Kobe’s father, had died.
From there, their plan was simple. Show up. Shoot him. Wait for him to die. Then leave and collect his insurance payout being the only living family he had left.
“How did you know he had an insurance policy?” Sunny asked.
“Myen took one out on him,” Dennis answered. “Before he went to prison. She said that she thought he’d die in there, and she would get to collect it. It’s just been sitting there wasting since she got it, she said. So she might as well get her money’s worth.”
Dennis didn’t seem like he was too smart.
It was easy to see that Myen manipulated him the entire time and likely only married him because she could manipulate him.
“How did y’all think you would get away with this?” Sunny asked, leaning back in his chair.
“She said that they’d never suspect her because she has no contact with him.” He grimaced. “But she messed up and got cocky when she heard that he was now happy and had moved in with his girlfriend. It was made to seem like he was enjoying his life, and she really didn’t like that. She went to see and confronted him. I told her we shouldn’t have done it after, but she insisted this was the only way. So I did it for her.”
