CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO

By the second day, Corinne settled into a routine. The first thing they had brought her the last two mornings was breakfast. It consisted of stale cereal and watery milk.

Corinne said a blessing over her food before she ate. She held back her tears. She had to be strong to pray through this valley of the shadow of death.

Sunlight came in through the small square window toward the ceiling of her cell. It was too high up there for her to see through it. Otherwise she’d be curious about where they were.

She recalled the boat ride two nights before, but she had been half-unconscious. Since then, she hadn’t left this cell of a room.

Are we on an island?

She didn’t recall Flavian ever talking about any island other than Hawaii and…

Cuba.

Unless, of course, she had been out longer than she thought.

The bracelet on her wrist was gone. She wasn’t sure when they had taken it away from her, but she hoped that the FBI had some leads. The GPS in her bracelet hadn’t been turned on in a year, but she prayed that it still worked.

She prayed for Dahlia, whom she assumed was still back home in Key Largo with Wanda. She hoped that Wanda was doing okay taking care of Dahlia while Corinne was busy being abducted.

She prayed for Miss Executioner and her life problems.

She prayed for her abductor, which she assumed to be Flavian. Who else could it be?

After she finished breakfast, Corinne sang hymns to while away the time. Feeling exhausted for some reason, she nodded off.

She awoke again when Miss Executioner came into the room.

“I’m surprised you didn’t try to escape,” she said. “Then again, we’re on an island.”

Island.

“I’m enjoying my vacation.” Corinne smiled. “Will there be a guided tour?”

“For you, a guided torment.” Miss Executioner left the room again.

Why is she like that?

Maybe she needs Jesus.

Corinne prayed for her again.
