One headed toward the street.

Another disappeared between two parked vehicles.

Nathan pulled the driver behind the SUV.

Ben drew his weapon but kept it low against his leg, hidden from the families walking nearby.

Ward came directly to me.

“Get everyone aboard.”

“Frank and Rose too?”

“Everyone.”

Rose grabbed her suitcase.

Nathan stopped her.

“Leave it.”

“My medication is in there.”

“I’ll get it.”

“I’m not leaving my⁠—”

A motorcycle engine roared somewhere beyond the parking lot.

Ward’s hand closed around my arm.

“Now, Storm.”

I jumped onto Sea Whisper.

Calle helped Rose across while Ivy and Willow brought Frank aboard.

Nathan followed with Rose’s suitcase.

Ben remained on the dock, eyes fixed on the road.

Ward untied the stern line.

“We’re not taking them to that hotel.”

Frank stared toward the SUV.

“Then where are we going?”

Ward looked at him.

“You’re staying with us until we know who planted that tracker.”

Rose sank onto one of the cushioned seats.

“But they know we’re on this yacht.”

“Yes,” Ward said.
