“You okay, man?” Clark asks. No, I’m far from okay, and it has nothing to do with the bust that is about to go down. Kinley has dropped off the map. She abruptly boarded a private plane after her last meeting and headed back to the States. There was only one person she could have gotten to set up a private plane for her, and that was my brother. And he won’t tell me shit about her.

“I want this to be over.” I want to be back with Kinley planning our future. Fucking crazy how fast finding the right woman could change you. I’d do anything for her.

“What’s her name?” My head jerks up to look over at Clark. He holds his hands up in a motion that says he doesn't want to fight with me. “You were all about this when we came to you and now it seems as though you can’t get out fast enough.”

“I could have walked away months ago,” I point out. This was going to be one of the biggest drug busts in history. Not for one second had anyone ever suspected that I was working with Interpol. I did it for the thrill at first. It was different. I’d been into it. Now all I can think about is Kinley. Who would take care of her if I got hurt? I am ready for a different life. One that includes her.

I do exports and imports. It's how I’ve always made my money. Then one afternoon Chan asked for a meeting. He was one of the biggest players in the underground drug world. I’d agreed because I was curious as to what he wanted from me. I had no idea he was going to want me to export drugs for him. He tried to bring me in on it. I would have made millions. I told him I had to think about it. I didn't. I knew from the start I wasn't doing that shit. I keep my hands clean.

I made a few calls, and that’s when Clark showed up at my door. We made a deal that included me agreeing to Chan’s proposal. Problem was it wasn't going down quickly enough. For months I’ve been here playing this game. Often having to go out with these ruthless people that only care about the money they are going to make on the sale of the drugs. They don’t have any regard for human life. There are things I’ve seen that I’ll never unsee in my life. The only time that darkness fades from my mind is when Kinley is near me. She makes it feel like the sun is on my face and I can breathe in the fresh air.

“We’re on.” I nod, getting out of my car as truck after truck rolls in. I motion towards the first crate so they can start loading. I try to look bored, but it’s not too long until Chan and Lie show up. They have a few other men with them I don’t recognize.
