CHAPTER FIFTEEN

Compadres with a Plan

“So why is it you say the girl is still vulnerable,” said Will. “You saved her already, okay? That biker gang, what’s their stupid name, The Lincoln Killers? Well, if the ones who are still alive have any sense, they’ll stay away from both you and the girl.”

“They’re watching her.”

“You’re paranoid.”

“I follow them sometimes. They drive by her bank where she works all the time. The rest of the time, I just watch her from a building across the street. They’ll come for her. At some point, they’ll come for her, and I’m going to be there again when they do.”

Will was incredulous. “Why in the hell would they be after her? It makes no sense. Half their gang already raped her and beat her half to death. She’d be dead right now if it wasn’t for you.”

“I haven’t figured that out yet.”

“Alright. Dammit, I knew you were going to drag me into another one of your escapades again. What do we need to do?”

“You’ll help me?” said Brock, staring into his beer.

Will jumped to his feet. “I can’t believe you just said that to me. After all we’ve been through together? After you pulled my ass out of the sling in Croatia, and that time in Kandahar, and a half dozen other times? Maybe I was your mentor in those days, but you saved my ass more than once. We’re blood. You understand me, compadre? We’re blood.”

Brock knew Will was right. They’d been in more bad shit together than he could recall, and Will was always there for him. Brock simply nodded his head.

Will asked, “They’re going to have to be taken out, aren’t they? The Lincoln Killers.”

“Damn right. Seem like such a bunch of low-lifes. I doubt they even know how to change their minds once they’re made up. They’re going to kill her, alright.”

“She’s got to be told, man. You’ve got to get to her and tell her the danger she’s in.”

“I’ve been thinking the same thing,” said Brock into a long exhale.

“Before we do this, I want you to look at me. Look me in the eye.”

Brock complied.

“You’ve fallen for this girl, haven’t you?”

There was a long pause and Brock struggled to maintain eye contact with his mentor, his best friend. “I don’t know how it happened.”

Will stood and paced across the carpeted apartment floor. “God dammit, I knew it. This chick reminds you so much of Lori, you’ve fallen for her. Do you even know her? Hell, she could be a nut-job.”

“I know, I know. It just snuck up on me.”

“In love with a girl you don’t even know. And she’s at least ten years younger than your sorry ass.”

“I’m not in love with her, alright?”

Will laughed. “You are such a pussy, you know that? Well, this ups the stakes. The fact that you’ve got the hots for this chick means you’re ability to think critically is compromised.”

“Oh, come on. I can still think pretty clearly in a combat zone.”

“Oh really?
