Chapter 20

Logan

About an hour after she entered the prison, Ryder reappears. She lasted longer with Viviana than I thought she would. When she gets into the car, her hands are shaking. “Are you okay?” I ask.

It takes her a minute to find her voice, and I continue out of the parking lot to the guard gate. We sign out and follow the signs to the interstate.

I carefully watch my rearview mirror, and I don’t see anyone behind me, but that doesn’t mean anything. They could be watching in other ways, even a drone.

We don’t talk much as we leave Florence and head east. When we get to Pueblo, I spot a drive-thru.

“How about some lunch?” She gives me a funny look, and I shrug. “This is a great way to check for tails.”

I watch the cars behind me as I maneuver toward the restaurant, making sure no one is pulling off to the side of the road or following too closely.

“Oh, okay,” she says. “I’ll take a cheeseburger, french fries, and a Diet Coke.”

I lean into the speaker and order that for both of us. I watch my rearview mirror. I don’t see anyone suspicious behind us or anyone who looks like they could be waiting.

I follow the line around the building to pay, which will also make it difficult for anyone to follow us without being obvious. Food in hand, we hit the two-lane highway that cuts across the eastern plains of Colorado and into Kansas. I floor it. I’m going almost ninety-five miles an hour, but the Mustang just hums. I’m going to have to thank Jim for getting us this car. Nothing like a good American muscle car.

“Viviana told me she’s having sex with one of her guards,” Ryder announces as she pops a fry in her mouth.

What the fuck? I look over at her. “Are you sure she wasn’t exaggerating? Or trying to compete with you?”

She shakes her head. “I wondered that, but she seemed excited to have the company and talk to me. She did end the visit abruptly, but that was after I asked her if telling me she had a brother had been a mistake.”

“Damn. You said that?”

She gives me a one-shoulder shrug. “Why not? She knew we’ve been together, and she wanted to brag that she was still getting her itch scratched.”

I eat a french fry. I don’t get these very often, and boy, do they taste fantastic. “What else did she say?”

“She offered several little bits of information, but I’m not sure what was truthful and what was deceptive. Regardless, she thinks she’s going to be released, and this is all a fun joke to her.”

Ryder leans back against the headrest and closes her eyes.

I return my focus to the road, and what should be a four-hour drive ends up taking a little under three.

When we arrive at the hotel in Garden City, Kansas, I find the truck and camper trailer in the parking lot. Vincent has already arrived.

I call him. “We just pulled into the parking lot.
