CHAPTER EIGHT

Winter

"You're sure this is it?" Alec asks.

I check the address on the scrap of paper. Check it again.

"Yep." Nodding at the mailbox, I stuff the paper into my pants.

Alec rubs his head. "I don't know. This seems off."

It's hard to disagree with that. The address the old woman gave us brought us to an old warehouse. The place is definitely abandoned, and the whole place has a creepy vibe.

The fence surrounding the warehouse is twisted like a pretzel. The chain link has tarnished with age, the metal corroding and warping. A tree has found purchase on the fence and grown halfway over, branches reaching out towards the warehouse as if to throttle it. The old warehouse has been abandoned for a long time, with smashed windows and a cracked sign.

It looks like no one has stepped foot in this place for years.

So, why would Igor Rhodes be here?

Anger rises in my chest. "We came all this way for nothing," I grumble.
