Finding A Ghost (Completed)

Chapter 17

Sorry this is a day late! Graduation for my university was yesterday and I worked at both events. I came home and knocked out pretty quickly.

**| Nathan's POV |**

We were currently separated into two SUVs as we drove towards the destination the German team sent us. Kota and Victor were in the back seat, trying to figure out as much as they could about where we were going. All they could dig up was that it was some car dump, the places broken cars go to for retirement. Sean drove as I sat in the passenger seat, letting the darkness cushion the silence.

I still didn't know what to think about this whole situation. We dropped everything to fly halfway across the world to find some ghost girl for North. I didn't regret agreeing to come here. I would do it every single time. North was family and I needed to be around to make sure everything was alright. I would kick myself hard if something happened and I wasn't around to help.

And I was pretty sure this ghost, Sang, was going to cause a whole lot of drama. I still didn't know what to think about her. North talked about her as if she were up on a pedestal, his judgement clouded. He was adamant about her not being the reason a little boy died. He thought it was impossible for her to ever harm someone.

Of course he was talking about some chick he knew as a kid. People changed. That was life. She could have completely flipped personalities and frankly, I wouldn't be surprised if her history was just like North's. Abuse changed people, it warped them. I knew it warped me. I didn't give a shit about anyone but my brothers and fuck anyone who tried to mess with any of them.

That included Sang Sorenson.

"Stop worrying," Sean said into the darkness, the only source of light being the dashboard and passing headlights.

I snorted. "Not possible," I said simply.

His head moved to look at me before he focused on the road before us. Owen and everyone else were following behind us, keeping a respectable distance behind us.

"What do you think about all of this?" he asked.

We hadn't really had a chance to talk about what we thought about the situation, we just mentioned possibilities and stayed focused on the mission.

I looked at him, a passing car lighting up his features. His green eyes were focused and serious, his expression stiff. We haven't really seen the flirty, fun doctor since coming to Germany. He was just as tense as we were.

"I think...that no matter what happens and what we learn of this girl, our dynamics are going to change."

If Sang really were the woman we thought she could be, it was going to destroy North and we would have to find a way to get him back, but I had a feeling this would be the final straw. We wouldn't get back the North we knew. He didn't need to get more jaded than he already was. And if she were as he said, well I could already tell my brothers were curious about her. How would she change the dynamics of my family? If she were alright, healthy, and hopefully safe, what would the next steps be? Would North let us go back home, leaving her behind again?

Sean didn't say anything and I knew it was because he agreed. No matter the outcome, things were changing. I could only hope for a positive one, no matter what it was.

After another twenty minutes of driving we pulled into a massive gravel driveway full of cars already and people getting out and calling out to each other. We wait for Owen to park next to us before we all get out and congregate together. We still blended in since it seemed even a gang like this had their own little cliques within it. Plus, there were so many people here that not everyone knew everyone anyways. People would look at us and assume we came from a different branch.
