Chapter 16: Maid of Honor

I got to Calder International at ten to seven with the sun not up yet and the terminal lit.

Tobias had said gate fourteen.

I didn't believe him, so I went to the check-in hall first.

Two Creighton men trailed me, one on each side, in plain coats, and I told them to stay by the doors.

This part was mine.

The hall was busy for a Sunday morning.

Travelers stood with coffee and rolling bags, and a family wore matching sweaters.

The line for the security gate bent back on itself.

Lacey stood in the middle of the line.

She wore sunglasses and a camel coat and a red scarf over her hair.

She held a leather bag against her chest with both arms.

I knew the way she stood when she was scared.

Her weight on one hip, her chin tucked down, a girl at fourteen waiting for a teacher to find the stolen thing.

I walked up the line.

Nobody stopped me. People move out of the way of a woman walking that fast.

"Lacey," I said.

She flinched so hard the bag slipped.
