CHAPTER 5 — LOGAN

Cassie is impossible. I can’t get rid of her and I don't want to. I was worried she was only agreeing to come with me but not that she sincerely wanted to. I have to put my trust in her.

She is different. She’s fiery in a way no other woman I’ve ever been with is. She snaps back at me and calls me on my shit. I watch her as we pack to leave, and she’s folding clothes that I would have stuffed into bags without a second thought. I don’t want to say it, but I think she sees more to me than there really is. Can I be the hero she needs me to be?

I guess we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it. After we finish packing spare clothes and other things that my mind runs across, I grab the revolver off the counter and open the cabinet above the fridge to retrieve my pistol. I’ve only done a border crossing once before so I hope things haven’t changed much since then. I also had the advantage of having more men with me... but maybe looking like a romantic couple will work in my favor.

I catch Cassie’s eyes as I holster both guns and wrap them in a towel, before shoving them deep into one of the saddlebags. She doesn’t say a word about the weapons. At this point I don’t know what could phase her. She’s a lot tougher than she lets on, I think.

Thinking about that, I was sure I’d made her a mute after gutting Rattlesnake in her living room. She was so quiet on the ride home. I really didn’t want to have to do that in front of her, but what choice did he give me? I watch her as she finishes closing up one of the saddlebags. That fire fills her eyes, the same kind she had when I told her to trust Surge back at the bar. A severe look I noticed the first time I saw her, driving past her car that day.

I feel almost disconnected from whatever she must be experiencing. That kind of dark shit just doesn’t register with me anymore. The fucking shit I put up with when I first joined the crew in California should’ve been enough to send me running back to Washington. But it didn’t. I don’t know why. If anything, it made my connection to the club that much stronger, it made me stronger. Especially my loyalty to Surge. I never could let him down.

She’s never dealt with that. Never been told, ‘it’s okay to kill people,’ or even, ‘watch them die.’ Can I even say that now? Is it too late for her?

There'll be time for that, on our long sabbatical. I grab both saddlebags and hoist them onto my shoulders, balancing them with ease. She follows me outside to my bike and I strap the bags down. They’re bulging out, the money and clothes and guns don’t help.
