Chapter Sixteen

Kane headed back to the Senator’s with a sack of food and a bag of clean clothes. During the ride, he couldn’t stop thinking about how he’d obviously upset Sky when he stopped kissing her, but he believed she’d regret her actions in the morning. Hurting someone pained him immeasurably, but it had to be done—for her sake.

Stentfield had called him when he was buying the food, and they’d talked for maybe two minutes when the General said he had to go. During that short conversation, Stentfield had relayed some pertinent information, or rather confirmed what Sky had found out. There was a secret base, Blackthorn, which operated under the perfume factory. The General heard rumors the Base performed experiments ranging from mind control to genetic engineering, just like the whistleblower had claimed. If the whistleblower was right about the Base and the mind control, was it possible there were aliens there too? He doubted it, but stranger things had happened.

Kane was within a mile of the RV Park when the Senator called. Kane hadn’t been gone that long. “Yes, Senator?”

“You need to get back here now.” The panic in his voice put Kane on high alert.

“What’s wrong?”

“Just get here.”

“My ETA is three minutes.” Kane floored his vehicle and a few minutes later swerved into the park.

As he passed the fire pit, memories rushed in, and his cheek tingled where Sky had licked him.

Focus. He couldn’t get sidelined until the mission was over. Dust billowed behind him as he slammed on his brakes, turned off the car, jumped out, and rushed up to the Senator’s door where he knocked.

Paul opened up. “Kane, thank God you’re here.”

“Are you okay?” He scanned Paul’s body, but found nothing wrong, other than he looked pale.

“Not really. One of the trick-or-treaters gave this to me. Look at it.” He handed Kane a piece of paper.

Kane stepped over to the window for better lighting. “VOTE FOR THE MILITARY BASE APPROPRIATION OR YOUR FAMILY WILL DIE,” Kane read. “Jesus. Did you get a good look at the kid who gave you the note?”

“No. Ironically, he wore a devil’s costume.”

At least they’d learned humans were behind all this mess, but using an innocent kid was sick. While he had no solid facts, he guessed the same people who ran Sky off the road had written the note to the Senator. They must be getting close to uncovering some dirty secret if someone was willing to kill to keep the information hidden.

“The message on Sky’s bathroom mirror was also in all caps and had similar strokes.” The cross line that makes the letter F wasn’t touching the vertical stroke, just like in her note.

“I was hoping you’d say this was a hoax.”

The Senator couldn’t believe that, not with all that had happened. “Did you call home and warn your wife?”

“I did. I also called Tony, my assistant, and he’s arranging for someone to keep watch over her.”

“Good.”

The Senator stood. “I need to go home.”

Kane hadn’t thought the Senator would return so soon.
