Chapter 11

Logan moved along the offices of his building without really seeing anything. He wasn’t sad because Lula was gone, but he was in shock. He thought that Mathew was taking it much better than he was and smiled when he thought of why. Aaron and his family had been there with him the entire way. And Lizzy had been as protective as a bear when it came to him. He was sitting behind his desk when his phone rang.

“Mr. Burris, you will be here in the morning for the sale of the buildings downtown, will you not? There has been some…well, the city had an unexpected expense and if you back out now, we could be in trouble, major trouble.”

Logan rubbed his forehead as the mayor spoke.

“The fire station just collapsed. Trucks and all were inside. No fire fighters, mind you, but the equipment was a loss. I just don’t know what we’ll do now. Not at all.”

Logan had told them that the building was in bad shape, and at one point had offered to lend them the money to get it updated. But the city had very little money and less in the way of taxable income. He was reaching for a file when Aaron knocked on his door.

“I’ll be there, Mr. Mayor. I have an appointment in the early morning I can’t miss, but I’ll be there at eleven as we’d discussed.” The mayor thanked him several times and finally, Logan had to hang up on him. “The fire house collapsed last night and now the city doesn’t have any equipment.”

“I know. I received a call earlier this morning asking if our department could help them out for a while. That’s why I’m here. I wanted to talk to you about a few things.”

Logan nodded and leaned back in his chair as Aaron got comfortable.

“What are your plans after this mess is over?”

“I plan to move into our new home and make love to my wife every chance I get. Why?” Aaron growled and Logan grinned. “If you didn’t want me to tell you then you shouldn’t have asked.”

“I was thinking more along the lines of a job. What if I asked you to come and work for me? I can always use a good man in my corner.”

Logan sat up, surprised.

“There’s also the matter of the buildings you’re set to purchase tomorrow. I’d like to go into partnership with you on them. I want to expand out so that more of my people will have a place to go if they are out when the sun rises.”

“You mean like a safe house?”

Aaron nodded.

“There are actually nine buildings for sale. I only wanted two of them and the third was a part of the package. Your expansion, does it include those other buildings?”

“Yes. You remember Maddy? You met her when Dunc was born.” Logan nodded. “She’s the attorney I use when I need some buildings purchased. But this city councilman of yours, he won’t talk to her because she’s a female, and he’s playing hardball with the others I’ve sent in as well.
