How Chris Helped

Dane

"We'll see," John muttered darkly. "But get your ass out of there. Even if the Police or Felix don't have your number to track that phone, Chris does, and they definitely know where he is. If they put pressure on him, you don't know what might happen. So go get a fucking car and get out of there. Don't even come to my place, get on the road south. I'll get everything in place and tell you where to go. I'll have it all in place in under an hour, I promise."

"I thought you needed two days?" Dane's breath was coming too fast.

"My motto is, 'under promise, over deliver,'" John said flatly. Dane would have laughed, but he was too busy trying to think. What did he need to get out of this place? He wasn't coming back.

Holy shit. He wasn't coming back.

Fuck.

Lila.

He scrambled through the apartment and back onto the bridge. "We're doing this," he said quietly. "We're leaving. Both of us. No looking back."
