Alex finally fell asleep.
His breathing evened out and the faint tension in his jaw eased. He looked like hell,bruises and cuts on him. he looked exhausted. but he was alive. That was what mattered.
I stood by the monitors, watching the flickering feeds of the woods outside. My men had successfully subdued the last of the attackers. The feed on the lower left corner caught my attention,two of my guys were dragging a man into one of the SUVs. One of the kidnappers where was caught, alive.
“Good,” I muttered under my breath.
The phone on the desk vibrated once. I answered quietly, keeping my voice low. “Pierce.”
“We’ve secured one of them, should we proceed to make him talk.” the voice on the other end said.
“Don’t push him yet,” I replied. “I’ll handle it personally.”
“Yes, sir.”
