CHAPTER-28

The red Enclave sped toward Wilmington, North Carolina, just over the speed limit for the stretch of eastbound Interstate 40. It wouldn’t do to be pulled over, given his recent and current cargo. He’d have some splainin’ to do, and frankly, he had no time for that bullshit. The people living in his world didn’t have to explain anything to anyone. Never had, never would. That was just how protocol worked for him, if that were even an applicable scenario. Protocol implied rules, regulation, and proper procedure. The only truth about any of those theories is that none applied to him.

Still, there were a plethora of reasons to stay under the radar, so to speak. He would. And if he’d learned anything over the last twelve years, it had been patience. There was absolutely no hurry to get done what his contact had told him to accomplish.

“There is a season for everything,” he said softly.

He thought about the bible verse in Ecclesiastes he’d been forced to memorize when he was in Sunday school and it led to the reasons he’d been in a church at all. His mother.

She hadn’t been too keen with staying out of the drugs and alcohol. She, however, made sure he and his sister got a Christian education, of sorts. At least as much as feasible when raising kids while being stoned most of the time.

Those thoughts brought nothing to his current assignment. Where he came from and how he was brought up were now as relevant as pissing in the ocean. The next two days were going to be a culmination of months of work and he needed a clear head. As good as he was at what he did, he realized—at least in this case—there was no room for complacency. None. He’d remember his training and finish what he’d begun.

Easing into the passing lane, he rolled past a big rig, turning up the music pounding from the radio as he did. The guys with the beards were kicking out one of his favorite tunes and he hit the steering wheel with his large hand in perfect rhythm to the driving beat. He’d heard from a well-known pastor that rock and roll was the Devil’s music and that it contributed to sending young people to Hell.

He laughed.

There were scarier things in this world than an imaginary demon of evil who wanted to send people to a lake of fire. He knew that to be true. He was one of them.
