Page 94 of Ghost

Ghost stood and went to the front door.He checked the peephole before opening it.Rami and Zain breezed in first, tactical ready, just as they’d been hours ago.

August followed, his expression sympathetic and pained.“I’m sorry, man.”

Ghost gave a curt nod.“Follow me.”

He led the way to his bedroom.If Ron wasn’t scared before, he was fucking terrified now.His eyes widened and tremors shook him.He wet his lips.

“I t-told you what I know.”

“This is Ron,” Ghost said dryly.“One of his buddies took Mila while he tried to take me out in my sleep.”

“Show me the footage,” Rami said, a growl in his voice.

August smirked.“We’ll hang with Ron.That okay with you?”He smiled playfully at the asshole leaning against the wall.

Zain snorted.

Ghost motioned Rami to his office, where he pulled up the video footage.

Rami’s face darkened.“How the hell’d they get in?”

“Garage.”

His friend’s eyes flicked to his.“Alarm?”

“It was set.But it was set the night Mila got in, too.”

A scream split the air.

Rami’s lips twitched.“Better hope he’s still breathing.”

Ghost shrugged.The guys weren’t stupid enough to kill him yet.Not when they still needed information.

Rami leaned forward and took control of the mouse pad.“I’m going to send this to myself, along with any footage of the outdoor areas.See what we can find to trace this guy.”

He sent the video to the company drive, then they made their way back to the bedroom.Blood seeped through Ron’s white running shoe.Zain stood nearby, his gun, a silencer at its end, hanging at his side.

“He shot my fucking foot!”Ron bellowed.

“Scream again and I’ll knock your teeth in,” August said.

The guy whimpered and twisted.With his hands behind his back, he couldn’t hold his injured foot.Ghost didn’t feel a shred of sympathy.“If you know where they took her, tell me now.”

“I don’t know shit!”

August slammed his gun down on Ron’s kneecap.The crunch of metal on bone made Ghost wince.This time, Ron didn’t scream.His face contorted and a sharp hiss left his mouth as he withered on the floor.

“Let’s try that again.”August lifted the weapon and directed the mouth at Ron’s knee.

A thought crossed Ghost’s mind.“Hang on.”He pulled Rami aside.“Where’re Taschen and Brick?”

“Brick’s on his way here.I told Taschen we didn’t need him right away.”

“I want this guy’s real name.I’ve got a feeling he’s not who he says he is.”

Rami smirked.“No shit.”

“If he’s working closer with Irinia than he says—”
