“And she’s a hologram?” she asked, moving her hand through her.
Because MATE was a ballbuster, she giggled.
“That tickles.”
When Rayna pulled her hand back, MATE laughed. Well, she chortled in that scary voice she used to freak people out, intentionally.
“Kidding.”
Elizabeth reassured her.
“Ignore my assistant. She’s unhinged,” she said. “Much like most of us.”
If she said so.
Rayna was both curious and freaked out that Elizabeth had a hologram that followed her around. That was…weird.
Getting out, Elizabeth heard her husband’s voice over Gene’s vest, and it was clear they were now patched in, and ready to see the scene.
“Hey, Baby,” he said.
She walked up the path.
“Hey, handsome doctor. Do you have a good view from your office?” she asked.
Oh, he did.
“Gene has the camera aimed at the back of you, so I’m not complaining.”
The man laughed.
“It’s an inclined driveway, EJ. She’s in front of me. I’m not doing it intentionally. Trust me.”
Not to be left out, they heard Axl get in on the action.
“I mean, it’s a view,” he said.
Then, they heard him say‘ouch’.
Oh, and there was no doubt why.
“That’s what you get,” Ethan said. “Keep your eyes off of our prize—or at least know better than to say it out loud.”
That made her roll her eyes.
“Let’s do a walk-through,” she said. “Then, I want to backtrack to the bar. We know Elkie’s sons own and work there. It’s early, but I know how the rez is.”
Rayna reassured her.
“Oh, the bar is going to be open. Roland Stormchaser gets there early to do the paperwork, and handle the money, and he lets some of the Natives in.”
Well, that was handy.
“He’s not supposed to sell alcohol, so he gives it away as a big fuck you to the local law. Let’s just say that Roland isn’t cop friendly, and his father wasn’t either. Joshua Stormchaser made the last chief work for it,” she admitted.
Well, then, that would be their next stop.
“If you can stay with us, EJ, it might help.”
