Andy put his hand up to the bump on his head. It still hurt. At least it hadn’t bled. “What if she’d found a way out of here?” he said. “I should have been more careful.”

“It wasn’t your fault,” Brent said. “We all assumed she was out for the night.”

“She put on that act, pretending she was sick, just so she could get out of your date. She’s probably not the right one, you know. We need to learn more about them so we only take the best candidates.” He shook his head. “I’m the one cleaning their rooms, delivering their food and supplies, emptying out their waste. . . .”

Frowning, Brent said, “I do my share. Besides, you know we can’t trade places. It would never work.”

Andy was quiet. Brent was right.

“Do you think Rider will punish them all?” Brent asked.

Andy sighed. “I don’t know. You know I can’t control him. Maybe he’ll just forget about it. He seems pretty excited about this next one.”

“But he won’t want the others to get ideas.”

“You’re probably right,” Andy said. “I guess we’ll find out.” He paused. “We’ll be full up again at six.”

Brent nodded. “Right. Sarah was released so we can bring in Alex.” He closed his eyes. “I hope Rider’s really sending the women home. Not . . .”

Andy didn’t comment. Brent wasn’t the only one who questioned whether they could trust Rider to tell them the truth.

Brent stared at him for a while before saying, “Shouldn’t I take out the new girl tonight? Before the new one comes? What was her name? Merrie? A nice name.”

Andy shrugged. “I’m sure Rider will let you know.”

Andy knew Brent was frustrated with how long they’d been at this. He was too. Could this new woman be the one Rider was looking for? The FBI agent?

He hoped so.
