"Shit." The guy said then punched me in the face. "Oh, fuck!" I gasped and held my eye that he just nailed.

"Sorry, Julia! Oh fuck. Colby is going to kill me." The guy I didn't recognize said with regret. "We have a bigger problem." I said and checked my hand to see blood on it.

"What's going on?" He asked with a serious tone. "We should go down and talk to Will or Jeremy." I said and looked around.

"Okay...yeah." He said then gestured for me to get in the elevator.

It was funny how quickly these guys trusted me but I guess Colby scared them into it.

"Sorry about your eye." The guy said as I nodded. "It's fine." I said then wiped the blood on my pants.

When the doors opened, we walked down the long corridor until we got to a random door.

"Will?" The guy I was with asked as he knocked on the door. "What?" Will asked on the other side of the door.

"So uh..there's a situation." The guy said as he opened the door.

"What kind- Julia?" Will asked as I nodded. "Someone took Colby." I said as his eyes widened slightly.

"Come in and sit down." He said then looked at the guy I was with. "Get her some ice for her eye. Did they attack you?" He asked as I came in and sat down.

"No." I said simply as the other guy left. "Tell me what happened." Will said and folded his hands in front of him.

"We were in hiding for a while at one of his secret locations with some of the members of his old gang. After a while we decided to come back here and they hit us with their car." I explained and picked at my nails.

"I went unconscious from the crash and woke up to him being gone. We need to get him back before they kill him." I said and looked up at him.

"I always knew this day would come." He said with a sigh then looked at him computer.

"Unfortunately a lot of people are after him. It comes with the job title. Narrowing it down to who took him is the hardest part." He said and focused on the computer screen.

"It had to be Adam right? Like that makes the most sense." I said as the guy from before came in with an ice pack.

"Sorry again." He said as I took it. "No biggie." I mumbled and put the ice pack to my eye. "He hit you?" Will asked and looked up at me.

"It was in self defense. It's fine." I said as he looked at the guy who hit me. "We'll talk about this later." He said as the other guy nodded and turned to leave the room.

"It could be Adam but it could be someone else. Who knows." Will said nonchalantly as I clenched my jaw.

"Can you take this seriously?!" I snapped causing him to look at me. "I am taking this seriously. I just don't know where to start." He said calmly.

"You guys should have been more proactive. He should have had a tracker put into his skin or something." I said as he chuckled.

"That's just not how this game works, Julia. I thought your father would have taught you that." He said then put his glasses on.

"Don't talk about him." I said and took out Sam's phone so I could text the others what was going on.

"He'd be proud of you." He said as I shook my literally. "Will. Enough." I snapped and looked up at him.

"Sorry." He said as I shook my head. "Just shut the fuck up and find Colby." I said and looked at my phone again.

I hated that Will was taking this moment alone with me to talk about my father. He should have been more concerned about what was going on with Colby.

"I know there's probably a rule about other gangs being in each others bases but we need Sam, Corey, and Jake." I said as he shook his head.

"No can do. Base is locked down for members only." Will said as I narrowed my eyes.

"I'm not a member." I said as he chuckled. "No, but Colby considers you one." He said then looked at the computer.

"Okay. Since they can't be in here, I'm gonna be keeping them in the loop." I said as he nodded.

"Whatever you need to do, Juliana." He said as his phone rang.

I watched as his eyes widened slightly, before he answered it.

"Hello....no I can't talk right now. No. Bye." He said then hung up quickly.

"What are you hiding?" I asked as he shook his head. "Nothing. I just don't want to talk about business with you in here. I know you don't like it much." He said as I nodded.

"Okay, so I'm going to send some men out to watch to see if whoever took him slips up. They couldn't have gone far. If you want the others to join in, have them search." Will said as someone knocked on the door.

"What?" Will asked and looked at the door. "Will..oh..hey Jules." Jeremy said as I waved. "Hey." I said as he sighed.

"What is it, Jeremy?" Will asked as Jeremy pursed his lips, shifting uncomfortably.

"I think you're gonna wanna see this."
