Chapter 16

“Making sure no one got to your stash of pot?” Zack asked with amusement from the doorway

“No, it’s in…” Trev managed to joke.

“Hey, it’s legal. You can keep it in a candy bowl on the coffee table, for all I care. What were you looking for?”

“Making sure the police came and got John’s laptop. I mean, I know they did because Quint needed the code so his guy could get in.”

“You hid it under the mattress?”

“That’s where Quint told me to put it.”

“Right. Okay, you’re forgiven. Now take your pills then go sit on the sofa. As long as I’m here, I’m going to check your wound.”

The mere mention of it had it aching again, so Trev had no problems following Zack’s orders. Once he was seated, Zack told him to take off his shirt. When he had, Zack removed the dressing and gently probed the area around the wound, causing Trev to wince.

“Sorry. It looks good. No infection but obviously still sensitive.”

“No kidding.”
