Ending Silence

Chapter 33

Sage's POV

I glare at the ground. The sound of typing is beyond irritating, but I'll gladly listen to it if it means finding her.

It's been half an hour, although it feels like fucking hours. If she was here, I would have received three daily update texts by now. Damn, I miss those texts.

I swear if so much as a hair missing from her body, I'm going to kill them. Every single one of them.

Suddenly, my phone rings from my back pocket, and everyone freezes and stares at me.

We all know that there's a high chance thats going to be an unknown number, asking for demands in return for her life.

Slowly, I take out my phone. My grip tightens.

"Unknown number" I mutter, and Leo holds out his hand for the phone. I hand it to him, and him and Casey do some shit to it. "The call will be traced. Keep them on the line for at least a minute" Leo mumbles, and I nod, before he presses answer, and puts it on speaker.

"So Sage guess what? Now, you cant be mad, or worried. Or feel any other emotion other than pure positivity and optimism. But I'm sorta kidnapped here".

"Morgan?" I mumble, grabbing the phone of the table.

"Thats me. You didnt really think I was gonna let some dirty ass kidnapper called fucking Vincent kill me, did you?" Morgan laughs, and I smile.

"Um- Morgan its me..the tattoo guy" Leo says, and I put the phone back down on the table so he can talk easier. "Oh hey! How's your day going?" She asks.

I chuckle to myself. Same old Morgan, regardless of the circumstances. "I'm good..how are you?-.." Leo asks hesitantly.

"Great! My day was amazing. I went to the beach, and saw a starfish. Oh- Sage! I didn't touch the jellyfish, like you said. But I did poke it with a stick" Morgan says, and I smile at just the sound of her voice while my brothers looks confused.

"You can tell me all about it, and everything more when your not kidnapped, deal?" I say. "Deal".

"Got the location" Casey says, and Jay nods. "Go" He says, and Alex and the twins walk to the door while Leo closes his laptop. Casey hands me my phone. "We'll be listening in on coms" He says, and I nod, grabbing my phone and quickly leaving with Leo beside me.

A minute later, we're speeding off in two separate SUV's. I was unlucky enough to get stuck with Leo and Alex. But then again, Claytons probably saying the same about being stuck with the twins.

Alex is driving, since they dont trust me to given the circumstances. Leo hands me and Alex an earpiece, and I stick it in my right ear.

"Sage are you still there? You have tendency of hanging up on me" Morgan says, and Alex turns me to me, smiling as he raises an eyebrow. I roll my eyes.

"I'm still here" I mutter. "Morgan where are you?" I hear Jay ask her threw the comms. "What happened?"

"Got interrogated by some guy name Vincent Osborne. He kept spitting when he talked! I nearly threw up. He stormed off in a tantrum when I didnt speak. I then tackled some guy to the floor- like in the rugby you watch Sage! Then I walked down the hallway. Accidentally stabbed this guy in the heart. Now I'm sitting on a bucket in a storage closet" Morgan says.

"Which leads me to my most important question. Do mafia's have janitors? Because if they do that's fucking hilarious. And they should keep that private becasue it totally tones down the level of scary" Morgan laughs.

"Our deal?" I remind her. "Oh- right sorry. I'll stay focused. But a pin in it. Wait! Guess what Sage? I lost the bobby pin I put in my hair-"

Alex and Leo laugh, while I pinch the bridge of my nose, holding back my own amusement.
