Chapter Twelve - nyaft

Terry slammed the car door, the sound sharp in the quiet air, and waited for Noir to get in. He’d used one of his aliases to rent a car so he could move around more easily. Now that he was mostly healed, he wanted to return to headquarters and deal with the Korinthian family. But as it stood, he still hadn’t heard from his handler, leaving him with no choice but to sit still and do nothing. Hiding out at Riley’s had seemed like the perfect plan, but he hadn’t expected Riley to up and leave town with no way for Terry to track him, and that pissed him off. Still, he was certain the omega wasn’t in danger for a couple of reasons.

The main reason was that Creed Makami, Riley's best friend and business partner, would have stormed the RV and torn it apart looking for Riley. That realization also told Terry that Creed knew where Riley was, and one quick phone call would confirm his suspicion. But he didn’t want Winter or Creed finding out he was in town, since it would only complicate things further.
