Ride With Me (Paige and Jace) novel Chapter 390

CHAPTER 213-1

Jace’s POV

The warehouse appeared ahead of us through the darkness, and the moment I saw the size of the building, I understood why Ethan had been so concerned.

It was enormous.

The main structure stretched across the industrial property, while several smaller buildings surrounded it behind a tall security fence.

No lights were visible from the road, and there were no vehicles parked outside.

It looked abandoned and that made me even more suspicious.

I slowed the motorcycle as we approached the entrance, and the other Iron Vipers followed behind me and Derek pulled alongside.

“Everything looks quiet.” Derek said.

“Too quiet.” I said.

“I was thinking the same thing.” Derek said as Mason looked toward the warehouse.

“You think they’re expecting us?” Mason asked.

“I don’t know.” I said as I looked at the dark building again.

“Stay alert.” I added.

The motorcycles moved into position, and everyone dismounted.

We had come prepared to find evidence, stolen property, and whatever remained of Victor’s operation, but none of us expected to walk into a clean building.

Victor had already shown us that he planned several moves ahead and I approached the entrance with Derek beside me.

The door was unlocked and that bothered me immediately.

I pushed it open and the smell hit me first. Oil, gasoline, dust, and something metallic filled the air and Derek lifted his flashlight.

“It’s bigger inside than I expected.” Derek said as I stepped through.

The first section looked like an ordinary storage facility, but the rows of shelves told a different story.

Boxes covered the walls. Crates filled the aisles. Motorcycle parts were stacked in every direction. Then Mason stopped.

“Jace.” Mason said and I followed his flashlight.

A row of motorcycles sat beneath covers.

He pulled one back and the identification number had been altered so Derek checked another.

“Stolen.” Derek said as I looked around.

“How many?” I asked as Mason started counting.

“Six here.” Mason said and we moved farther inside.

Another row appeared. Then another.

By the time we finished counting, there were more than twenty stolen motorcycles inside the building.

Some had clearly been stripped for parts, while others appeared ready to be moved somewhere else and I felt anger rise.

“These aren’t just club bikes.” I said as Derek shook his head.

“No.” Derek said as he pointed toward a workbench.

“There are business names on those documents.” He added and I walked over.

The paperwork listed several local companies.

Repair shops. Dealerships. Transport businesses. Even a construction company.

I recognized some of the names.

“These were stolen from local businesses.” I said as Ethan picked up another file.

“There’s more.” Ethan said as he opened it.

“These aren’t just theft records.” Ethan added.

“What are they?” I asked.

“Orders.” Ethan said and I looked at him.

“Orders for what?” I asked.

He showed me the paperwork.

Parts. Equipment. Vehicles. Motorcycle components.

Everything had been catalogued and assigned to different destinations so Victor wasn’t simply stealing.

He had built a distribution network and Mason walked toward another storage area.

“Jace, you need to see this.” Mason said as I followed him.

The doors opened into another section of the warehouse, and my stomach dropped.
