Chapter 10

D unc sat with his mother. The box holding the sterling silver necklace was on the coffee table between them. A lit candle sat next to it. “Okay, so I’m going to use wax on my fingertips to pick up the necklace and give it to Amanda and then tell her how to use it.”

“Yes.” His mother nodded. “When she gets here, give it to her along with the taser. When the hunter shows up, she needs to taser him and bind him with the silver rope. Then she calls you, and you can help bind him more securely. You need to stay near her at all times.”

“Okay.” Dunc took a deep breath. He blew out the candle, stuck his fingers in the wax then let them cool. He tentatively went for the necklace. His fingertips touched it, and nothing happened. Dunc picked it up then dropped it back in the box. “That works. Hopefully, she won’t look too close.” He took his other hand and touched the silver for a second. A spark shot out of the box, and Dunc yelped. He grabbed his finger and winced as smoke rose from a noticeable burn. “Well, I guess that proves it’s pure.”

“What are you going to tell her if you make an error.” His mother looked at him in concern.

“The truth. I won’t have a choice.” Dunc sighed, closing the box. “And the rest of the plan is to bring him here?”

“Yes. I will wipe all memories of Amanda from his mind.” Hannah stated. “And everything from the last year. We don’t want him even to remember coming here.” “It will be permanent?”

“It will weaken if he sees Amanda in person. It will break if he looks into her eyes or interacts with her at all. You need to tell Amanda that.”

Dunc nodded. “If she stays here, I don’t see how she’ll ever run into Joseph again. I’ll have him taken far from here. We think he is staying somewhere nearby, but not everyone knows to look out for him.”

“Dunc, I know you don’t want to kill a man.” His mother sighed, rubbing her temples. “But I can’t help but feel this will not be permanent.”

“It could be.” Dunc hoped it would work. He couldn’t imagine killing someone and didn’t want to. The look on Joseph’s face in the photos he had seen frightened him. He didn’t want to be like Joseph. He wasn’t a murderer.

Dunc held a strand of the necklace between his wax-covered fingertips. He dropped it into the box and handed it to Amanda. She took it in her hands, curiously. “Really, a necklace?”

“The silver will stop his ability to pass through anything, like say ropes. You’re going to tase him, tie him up, and call me.” Dunc stated. “I will be nearby. He’s going to make a move at some point. Keep these things out of sight of the cameras. They’re still on, aren’t they?”

“Yeah.” Amanda winced. “I hate the fact he’s watching.”

“Yes, but we know that he’s going to show up if the cameras go out.
