Chapter 34

The time had come for Chloe to talk to Alice. The two friends sat in Chloe’s living room as she confessed everything to her friend, from the second she first saw Hunter to the last time.

“Witness protection?” Alice said with awe. “For all of us?”

“Nothing is set in stone yet. He made no promises.”

“Reggie,” Alice whispered. “Would Reggie understand? Maybe. Would he come with me? I don’t know. Would he let the boys come with me? Of course he wouldn’t. Would the boys want to come with me without him? No, they wouldn’t.”

“You can ask and answer questions all day, Alice. The bottom line is that you have a difficult decision to make. Whether or not you agree to protection, if and when Hunter does get proof against my father, he will have the power to make you testify.” She let out an apologetic sigh. “Look, I know your choices suck, but what if I fail? Hunter’s the only one who can help you.”

“Do you think you will fail?”

The unknown crossed Chloe’s features. “It’s a definite possibility.”

“Do you know what you’re going to do yet?”

“Not yet, but I will figure something out. If I can get some kind of evidence while I’m there and get it to Hunter…”

Alice looked at Chloe like she was an idiot. “Do you really think that’s going to happen? When you walk through those doors, Matthew will have you locked down so tight you’ll need permission to go to the bathroom. How do you expect to get any evidence?”

Chloe’s voice exploded as she threw her hands above her head in exasperation. “I don’t know! Look, this is the best I can come up with right now. I can’t make any promises or guarantees.”

Alice nodded in understanding. “When are you leaving for Boston?”

“I’ve got to prepare myself to be fed to the lions. I’m leaving Friday.”

“Well, then,” Alice said with decisiveness in her voice, “I need to have a chat with my husband.”
