Callahan"Where is he?"Dante and I are on the chopper along with two soldiers.“I know one of the officers. He took him home. No arrest was made.""Where the fuck were the soldiers.he's supposed to have with him at all times?"Dante ducks his head to look out onto the water as we near our landing spot.“He doesn't take them with him. Hasn't in a while.”"What?""As soon as he gets to the mainland, he drops them.""What do you mean he drops them?”Dante takes a deep breath in as the chopper lands then turns to me. "He's doing something, and I can't figure out what it is. I have the men tail him but there have been a few times we've lost him.""And you haven't thought to mention this to me?""You've got a pretty full plate, Callahan.""My brother takes priority." We climb out of the chopper and walk across the lot to the waiting SUV."What's he doing?"“He's looking for someone. I don't know who but it's a girl."I look at Dante. “A girl?"He shrugs a shoulder. “He puts on a good face

PortiaCallahan closes the door and sits on the couch. He returned to the island an hour ago with his brother who looked a little worse for wear.I take a seat beside him."What's going on?" I ask.He scrubs his face then takes Cerberus's eager one into his hands. He looks at the dog who makes a whining noise as if he feels his master's agitation.I hear one of Callahan's signature grunts as he turns his attention to me and pets Cerberus absently.“You remember how to move the rock to get into the tunnel?”I nod. He just showed me last night."If anything happens to me, you go. Take your brother and go."“What?”"Keep Cerberus by your side as long as you can. He'll protect you."He gets up, goes to his desk and opens a drawer to take out a pouch. He holds it out to me.I take it and feel the jagged edges of whatever is inside, the weight. There's cash in there and information on the bank account where there's more. “It's in your new name. Everything you need to disappear is inside inc

PortiaSomething's wrong. I feel it. It's been hours since Callahan left, and Nathan still isn't back. I'm anxiously sitting in Callahan's bedroom watching for either of them.I glance at the pouch and the contents I've scattered on the bed. The gun looks ominous and I know it's for my own protection, but I don't want it. I don't want Nathan to have it. I don't want either of us to have to use it.There's ten thousand dollars in cash along with the two passports with our new identities. American passports. I have no idea if they're good forgeries or not, but I guess they are. The key is to a BMW.Cerberus sits beside me looking out the window. He must feel it too, this anxiety. This feeling that something has gone wrong."Everything will be okay," I tell him. It's a lie. I have no idea if anything will be okay.He sets his head on my lap with a small whimper.Did Callahan find Fernando? Is that why he's given me this pouch? Shown me the way off the island. I know this is the one thing

Our family."Your wife is a dirty whore."Not a virgin."Your wife is a dirty whore. I may never have fucked her but let me tell you something.
