Carson: Morning. Wanted to check on you. You okay?

Me: I’m good. A little nervous, but I’ll be fine.

Carson: You’ll do great. Text me when you’re done and on your way back.

Me: I will.

Carson: I wanted you to know I support you. I shouldn’t have said what I did yesterday.

Me: I know you do. It’s a lot for us all to take in.

Carson: It is, but it’s not an excuse. Do you forgive me?

Me: Of course, I do. I wasn’t mad. I’ve missed you.

Carson: Miss you, too.

It was so good to have Carson back in my life. Every day I had him would forever be a blessing.

Trent turned around as he adjusted a small earpiece that was almost impossible to see unless you were looking for it. “Put this pendant on your shirt. It’ll help us hear you just in case.”

Taking the proffered piece of jewelry, I inspected it. The microphone was a little painter’s palette with all the primary colors. I smirked. “Cute, fitting and practical. Just what the special forces ordered.”

Andre disguised his laugh with a cough while Gabe and Trent shook their heads.

I pinned it to my shirt. “There.”

There was a pause and then Trent said, “Good. It’s working. We’re reading you loud and clear.”

Within a few minutes we pulled up to the school. It was an old church that had been renovated into a special needs education center. A widow had bought it and had it redone for her grandson almost two years ago. It was beautiful.

Andre pulled the car underneath a covered porch and things became real. I was here and about to meet Alex’s son. At the hotel, I had similar thoughts but now the reality of the situation had increased in potency.

Deep breaths. I have this. It’s the fastest way to draw Alex out. I want to be free of him.

I kept looking at the stone building, expecting it to reveal the answer to all the madness. Trent’s words broke through my thoughts. “We’ll be with you the whole time. If you feel uncomfortable, say you need some air. We’ll get you out immediately.”

“Okay.” I swallowed, trying to remember the directions.

Glancing out the window, I looked over into a heavily treed area. Was Alex watching me? Was Jack De Luca? What about the person after Carson? Or were they misleading us? I closed my eyes. I am perfectly safe. Gabe and Trent are with me. My eyes swept over the area again, trying to see if I sensed anyone. There was no bone-chilling effect or raised hairs on my neck. But still… there was the possibility.

I can do this. This will hopefully be the beginning of the end to the madness.

Gabe touched my knee and I jerked toward him. “It’s okay, sweetheart. You don’t have to do this.”

“I know.” I placed my hand on his. “I want to do this. You’ll be with me the entire time.”

Behind Gabe a smartly dressed woman in her mid-thirties with wild brown curls piled in an updo exited the school.
