He sounded irritated.
“We’re landing tomorrow.”
“I know.”
He paused.
“Good. I assume you’ve followed my instructions.”

“What did you say?”
“I said no.”
His voice hardened.
“You don’t get to make this difficult.”
“I’m not making anything difficult, Logan.”
I smiled faintly.
“You already did that yourself.”
He hung up.
I knew the following morning would change everything.
