I let Isabel out of my sight for what feels like the hundredth time. I miss her and ache for her. Yet when I walk through the door of my rental, I’m relieved to be alone with the fucked-up person I’ve become and not have to spend another minute trying to convince her I’m worth being in her life.

She makes me feel things, and worse, she makes me see. She shows me the broken person I buried when I went to Rio and the savage I replaced him with. She touches scars I learned to ignore. She’s ready to absolve me of all my crimes if it means I can change. How much blood on a person’s hands is too much? At what point does redemption matter?

Of course, if I had a pinch of faith, I could try to talk myself into a place of hope. I could contemplate my soul. Figure out ways to stop the bleeding when life as I’ve known it has been a nonstop hemorrhage of murder and sin.

I don’t especially want to kill people, but I can’t deny that sometimes it’s the easiest way to solve a problem. I don’t trust Halo or her budding friendships in the organization or her plan. But massacring Kolt’s family doesn’t end the chaos. It would likely breed more. I still have the Company to deal with. And despite Lucia’s connections—the extent of which I’m still trying to figure out—Isabel’s family is at risk the longer this goes unresolved too.

I open my laptop, bring up the chat window, and type a message for Jay. I don’t have much to threaten her with, especially since I failed to kill her once. I don’t know what I could possibly offer her, so I go into the communication with no strategy other than trying not to show how I’m emotionally beating myself to death right now.

RED: Time’s up.
