Oh, well, that made sense.
“We will call it the Wyler Blackhawk Activity area. It’ll sit right next to the Timothy Blackhawk Community Center.”
He kissed her on the temple.
That was a very kind thing, and he knew why she did it. Elizabeth would need to see it in order to mourn if Wyler passed.
“I don’t deserve you, and neither does my brother. I just wanted to say that, so you knew how lucky we are. You’re a gem, Elizabeth. I’m so glad I have been blessed with you and this life.”
Like she told Elkie, she was the lucky one.
They saved her.
“Say it with some kinky sex on the beach somewhere, hot, Native man, who happens to tan up in ten minutes. Then, let me have my tanning oil way with you.”
He grinned.
“Oh, well, I’m not saying no to that. Want to send all these nuts home when we’re leaving, and you and I sneak away for a couple of days? I’ll make Barbados memorable.”

“You mean dump all of the kids on our other partners and run like the wind to the beach? I don’t know…,” she began.

Well, that worked for him. It felt like he’d not touched his wife in a few years. He had blue balls for miles.
As they entered the center, Callen took the last bite, and dropped the core into a garbage can. Then, they headed toward the room.
At the door, they took off their shoes, and she tucked her gun and badge to her back whereit wasn’t visible.
There was no point riling up the Natives.
When they went inside, it was Chief Tom Redbear and Abe Crowfeather.
But not Lance.
He wasn’t there.
As they approached, Callen took the lead, and his wife just stayed calm. She’d stirred up the Natives more than a few times, and today seemed like a good day not to poke the bear.
She needed information, and that meant playing nice.
“Thank you for seeing us,” Callen said.
They both nodded at Elizabeth, and she nodded back. If it didn’t make Callen and Ethan’s lives difficult, she’d go in fullycocked, both barrels, and all in but that was normally how she rolled.
“We would like an update,” Abe said, his face giving it all away.
He wasn’t amused to be meeting with them. Mostly, meeting with Elizabeth.
He was no fan.
