“Is he dead?” Charlotte asked me.

“No, I just immobilized him.” Charlotte started to cry then, not great sobs or anything, just the tears rolling silently down her cheeks. I should have killed him, I realized. She would’ve preferred for me to kill him.

I opened the kit and dabbed a cotton ball in the liquid antiseptic. I held it to the open wound on her lip and she winced once. I looked at her and our gazes locked. I don’t know why I did it, maybe the vulnerability in her eyes, but I kissed her softly and stopped just as abruptly. I had perfect control over my emotions, my actions, but she was flipping my world upside down.

“I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have done that,” I said and pulled away.

“I should go home,” she said and pushed her chair backwards.

“You can’t go home,” I said to her. “There’s a chance that he’ll be watching your house, waiting for you to go back. Besides, you can’t be seen looking the way you do. I have a guest room. You can stay here for a few days.”

    I looked at Malachi like I was trying to read his mind. “Married, not married, there’s not much difference in how we’ll live or how we’ve been living.”“Wow, Levi, how can you be so stupid and smart at the same time?” Malachi asked me with a smile and shook his head. “She won’t feel part of this family until you marry her, until then she’ll feel like a guest in this house.”“She was married before. It didn’t end so well, I doubt she wants to walk that road again,” I said. “Besides, have you seen how bossy she is? She doesn’t feel like a guest here, she knows I love her.”“Then why not?” Malachi asked me. He had me there.“You were raised differently than I was. I’ve never seen the point. Nothing changes if we get married,” I said and Kiran gave me a look. A real ‘what the hell’ type of look.“She’s going to give birth to your child in roughly six months, trust me when I tell you she wants that security feeling of being married. It creates something sacred between the two of you, stren

    “William, did your mother ever tell you that you’re different from other kids?” I asked him. He got this guarded look in his eyes and I thought to myself that she had.“It’s okay, William, because I’m different like that too,” I said as we drove back to Seward.“You are?” he asked me.“I grew up not knowing my family. I thought my parents didn’t want me and my life wasn’t always easy, just like yours,” I said.“Did people hurt you too?” he asked me.“Yes, they did, sometimes very badly. Do you remember I told you once that you won’t always be the underdog?” I asked him.“Yes.”“Do you think I’m an underdog?” I asked him and he shook his head.“No, you’re strong and brave,” he said.“So are you, William, because we’re the same,” I said.“My mom and Ava said I’m good for nothing,” he said and more guilt hit me.“That’s not true, kid. You’re special and kind and I love you,” I said.Before meeting Charlotte, I doubt I would have said that to anyone. I hadn’t said it to Nataly even when s

    “William.”He raised his head and started to cry as he jumped up and ran toward me. I grabbed him and picked him up as I hugged him. He had lost weight and I could feel his ribs through his shirt.“Please take me with you,” he whispered through his tears.“I’m never leaving you again, kid,” I said as I held him. “I promise.”We stood there for a long time, him crying and me holding him. He was twelve now, he had turned twelve three weeks earlier and I had sent him here. I had done this to him as much as they had. My intel had been bad and I knew I’d never forgive myself for putting him through this.“Put this on,” I said as I put him down on his feet and nudged the shopping bag. “I’ll be right outside your door.”“No! Please don’t leave me alone,” he said suddenly, afraid that I’d leave him.I turned around to give him some privacy to dress and I heard him take the clothes out of the bag. I looked up and saw his reflection in the mirror hanging on the door. I looked away quickly becau

    “That was kind of intense up there,” Kiran said to me.“I’ve always hated him, but now I feel free,” I said.We stepped off the elevator and Kiran opened the gate again. We walked into the street and I stopped at the corner and waited.“What are you doing?” Kiran asked me.“You’ll see,” I said.Exactly ten minutes after Lynda left Peter’s office, the roller door in front of the gate came slamming down. She was locking down the building and I knew it was utter chaos in there. The Director being killed with no footage on the cameras in the hallways would forever remain a mystery.“Now we can go,” I said.We walked back to the car, taking our time, and took the cloaks off as I unlocked the doors. We stuffed the cloaks back into our bags and got in the car.“Thank you,” I said to Kiran out loud.“Anytime, Levi,” Kiran said. “This is what families do.”I had felt him in Peter’s office, taking control of my emotions. He had kept me calm and composed because the hate inside me was reaching b

    Peter stood up and walked right past us and looked out into the hallway. There was nobody there. He closed the door again and pushed against it to make sure it was closed and walked back to his desk.“Stay hidden,” I said to Kiran and he nodded. I walked over to Peter’s desk and sat down on the chair facing him. He was busy making notes, probably noting down Malachi and Kiran’s deaths. I felt nothing for the man I once revered as I sat watching him. I took the hood of the cloak off and inhaled.“Hello, Peter,” I said and his face paled when he looked up and saw me sitting across from him.“No, it’s impossible. You’re dead,” he said.“Yeah, that’s the problem, Peter. You tried to kill me.” I took the Jericho from the holster and put it down on my lap.“I don’t–”“Call Lynda to join us,” I said and he looked at me.“How did you get in here?” he asked me.“That’s my little secret. Call Lynda,” I said and looked at the gun.Peter picked the phone up and dialed her number. “Lynda, I’d lik

    “So, what’s your plan exactly?” Kiran asked me as I drove toward Garfield Park.“Jessica gave me her cloak and since you insisted on coming with me, you can make us disappear. Will you be able to open the gate in the basement? It works with biometric fingerprints on our cards but they would have disabled mine upon my death,” I said.“I don’t know. I’ve never had to open a fancy gate like that before,” he said with a smile.I pulled into Bo’s driveway and the garage doors opened up. I pulled inside and switched the car off. I got out and Kiran opened his door as well.“Yo, man, it’s been too long,” Bo said and we arm-hugged.“This is Kiran, my nephew,” I said to Bo. “This is Bo, my friend.”“Yo man, why you all gotta be so damn tall?” he asked as he shook Kiran’s hand.“Good genes I guess,” Kiran said with a smile.“Come on in. I got your bag,” Bo said.We followed Bo into the house and indicated the bag on the table. I opened it and took out the holsters and fastened them to my thighs
