"Good question," I say, "Let's ask Gus."

I motion for Gus to come in, and he steps into the room, the tension between him and Jayden feels like it could explode at any moment.

"Jayden raised a good point. How will you know when I'm with Cass?" I ask him.

"There's a button to press on the GPS," Gus explains. "It'll send us an alarm. Then we'll know you are with her, and we can proceed getting you two out of there. If I can get a chopper in Mexico to get you both, I will" "What if you can't?"

"We'll get you to a more public place by road."

"That's it?" Jayden says, glaring at Gus. "What if that doesn't work? What if Cass is injured and can't move?"

"We'll have people on the ground following, remember we will be tracking you. All you need to do is press that button once you are with Cass and you can both move together safely." Gus replies calmly. "How do I know who to trust?" I ask, my heart racing.

"They'll show you a symbol," Gus says, pulling out his phone to show me an image. "It'll be small, but you'll recognize it. They're Nexus Global. Trust them."

'Jayden's gaze snaps to Gus, his face dark with suspicion. "What the hell is Nexus Global, Gus? And what the hell are you?"

Gus sighs. "I'll explain later, Jayden. Right now, we need to focus on getting Winona to Cass."

Jayden clenches his fists, clearly frustrated. "I hate this. I hate that you're walking into danger while I have. to sit here and wait. I should be with you."
