Chapter Twelve: By Any Other Name

Jewel

When we came in, I noticed a big change in the basement. The wall now had a huge hole in it. I also heard voices coming from inside the large gap. Looking up, I saw Talon and Logan with some devices in their hands. They were speaking into them and voices spoke back. This told me and Prophet that the tunnel was ready.

Liv came over and motioned to me.

Following her, we went in and I stood in the corner of the large closet as I waited to put on this tracking bra.

Liv handed it to me then she looked over at Prophet. “He looks steady as a rock.”

I put the bra on and donned my shirt as I stepped over to look. Prophet talked in low tones with Talon and the men. He did look calm, but I knew turmoil boiled just below that seemingly smooth surface. “He's the best man I have ever known,” I replied sincerely. “And I will do anything to keep him that way.”

Liv turned her head to look at me. “I can understand that. When you find that kind of man, you...” She shook her head as she didn’t finish.

I stared at her and understood what she was trying to say. I never would have before this, but I loved him and that had changed my whole world. “If this goes wrong, I don’t know what will happen, but I am praying you all find his dad. If Prophet really turns himself in as a trade…” I bit at my lip as tears filled my eyes.

Liv grabbed my arm. “Look, I know this has to be the hardest thing maybe that you have ever had to do. But don’t let your fear take over.” She met my eyes. “In my work that was… well, a deadly thing to do. You keep yourself together in order to come out alive, Jewel. You understand?”

I nodded. “I will try.”

“No, just think about fighting your way out. In that, there is no trying. You already know that if you do show fear to Deacon that will weaken you.”

I nodded. She was right, the man was a creep in more ways than one.

“You ready?” Talon asked from close by.

Liv looked at me and I gave her a firm nod.

We stepped out and instantly Prophet caught my eyes with his. It felt like a jolt the good and bad kind. Today would determine many things, or nothing at all. We couldn’t be sure it would work. In a few minutes, we would have this awful argument and then I would run. I shook myself at this thought. I would run right to Deacon if we played it right. I refused to dwell on that. Like Liv said. Go all the way and show no fear. So I would start that now, so I gave Prophet a smile.

He didn’t return it as worry showed in his eyes.

Making my way over to him, I said, “Let’s give him a show that will bring him down.
