  Maybe that had been a mistake. He slid down the gray cinder block wall, breathing hard, his head against the cool wall. “You’d better put Boneyard away too!”

  No answer, his voice pinging through the tiny six-by-nine cell.

  He’d caught a glimpse of Jaden’s wide-eyed, horrified, pitiful relief as they dragged Rio away. Now, the expression dug in, found soil. He’d worn that same expression once upon a time. Probably should tell the guards to grab the kid, put him in solitary, too, for his own protection.

  But that might end up with a good kid losing his mind.

  Shoot. Shoot! Rio moved his jaw, testing. Not broken, this time.

  At least solitary here had a window, the midnight sun casting a glow through the tiny grated opening nine feet in the air. A simple bed, a stainless toilet and sink. Cement table.

  Hopefully he’d only be here overnight.

  He hadn’t even seen Darryl as the guard led him away.

  Just walk away.

  Rio closed his eyes, his knees drawn up, the adrenaline still hot in his veins. Wow, he knew better.

  But maybe he should just concede that once a criminal, always a criminal. Even if you worked for the good guys.

  Still. Rio wanted to hit something.

  He closed his eyes, listened to the beating of his heart. And prayed for Tuesday.
