Betrayal
Chapter Twenty-Five
Vin couldn't believe it, he knew where Ezra was! Finally! Orrin had told him
that he hated to see them trying so hard to find him. But, he didn't want the
others, especially Chris, to know. Ezra didn't need them all descending on him
at once. Especially considering the problems between him and Chris.
Vin had promised that he wouldn't tell. He scribbled a quick note before walking
out of the office. He hurried to his jeep and headed home. Judge Travis had
promised that there would be a driver to take him to the private ATF helicopter.
The helicopter would take him to Ezra's safe-house in Utah.

Ezra sighed as he gently sat down on the couch. He and Agents Milter and
Harrison had just found out that Mary Travis had been killed and that nobody
could find the three goons that had tried to kill him. He might've wanted to
slap Mary Travis silly. But, he didn't want her dead. He was worried about how
everything was going to affect young Billy Travis.
He leaned his head back against the couch and closed his eyes, trying to will
his headache to go away. He didn't want to take anything that would knock him
out, which was why he had quit taking his pain medication. He had a feeling that
he was going to need to be alert, since he was positive that Edward Mounds was
on his way. He had a feeling that Mounds knew where he was and wanted him dead.
He sighed again, he just wished that the whole ordeal could be over. He was
tired of hiding, even though it'd only been a few days. He just wanted to be
free to go on with his life and try to get over Chris and everything that had
happened.
