Chapter 125: Theo

It had been nearly two days since Ayla had been taken, and I was losing my mind. Dad had told us every place he could think of where Harry could have taken Ayla and her family. We had been all over the territory with no sign of them anywhere.

The only thing keeping me sane was the mate bond. My bond with Ayla was still intact. He hadn’t killed her or marked her. She wasn’t being tortured, but a pain in my wrists told me she was tied up.

We needed a lead.

“Theo, Mina may have found something,‘ Briggs mind–linked me.

I rushed back to the hotel room we were using as an office.

“What did you find?” I asked, rushing in. I ignored the fact that Kingston came in right after me.

Mina was at a laptop. “I went through the safe Ayla left for Marie when she cut her ties. There was a list of accounts and passwords. One of them was for an emergency device. Ayla bought a necklace for Kylee when she graduated high school. If Kylee was ever in trouble, she could click a button and it would call for help.”

“I’ve seen that,” I said. “She almost never took it off.”

Mina grabbed her phone. “Well, let’s hope this isn’t one of the timest she did. If we still believe they’re all together, this could be our ticket.“”

Mina called a number and started speaking with an agent. She provided Ayla’s security information, and they checked the device within minutes. Mina put them on speaker.

“And the emergency contacts didn’t receive any messages?” the agent asked.

“No, we didn’t,” Mina said, knowing she was one of them.

“Okay, if she didn’t have her phone in range, that would have caused the problem,” the agent said. “However, we can check the GPS history. If she clicked it, it would have pinged her location.”

We heard the sound of fingers flying over a keyboard for a few seconds.

“Okay,” the agent said. “We have four hits from four days ago. However, at this point, we would need to involve the authorities, Miss.”
