“Ethan told me that you wanted to speak to Wyler. If you do, mind your manners. I get bitchy when someone annoys or hurts my family.”
He stared at her.
“Oh, and since we’re talking about my family, let me just put this out there. The nice gentleman that your daughter has decided to start something with is like a child to me. As in I protect my own. So, I’d tread lightly.”
With that, she stood up.
“Rayna, be ready to go in two minutes. Like I said earlier, you’re stuck with us today, since this has marked you. I don’t have time to play‘find the Native in the woods’. I’m going to be busy playing‘find the killer’.”
And with that, she headed out, closing the door behind her.
When she was gone, Rayna sighed.
“You just can’t play nice with people, can you? Now, you have her all stirred up.”
He wasn’t pleased.
“She is not one of us. I don’t care if she married a Blackhawk. As for the other part, Wyler doesn’t deserve my compassion, and that…man you’ve begun something with…you know how I feel.”
Oh, she did.
He’d made that clear.
And so did she.
Not that it mattered, since he was leaving when they left.
“Dad, calm down. It’s not the end of the world if people spend time with non-Natives. Seriously. It’s not fifty years ago.The Blackhawks didn’t make us walk the trail or cause us pain, and neither did Elizabeth. They are just trying to save people.”
Honestly, he didn’t care.
The Blackhawks were on his nerves.
And had been for more than a few decades. It was definitely time to track down Wyler.
Once and for all.
Chapter Twenty-Five
Thomas Adsila’s
Home
Thursday Morning
Since her process was pretty simple, and rarely ever changed, Elizabeth wanted to make sure that with the head and whistle headed in, she took this back to where it seemed to begin a few days ago.
Thomas Adsila’s cabin.
For her, she needed to backtrack his steps, hoping to find out if someone had been following the victim before he met his maker.
She was also going to make sure his cabin was checked for trace. The new team was going to have another long day.
Hopefully, they didn’t disappoint her.
Man.
What wouldn’t she give to have Chrissy there to help her?
