Chapter 43Agent West broke into his muse. “ Five minutes 'til we land. Tell me something, Barton. You really surprised me back there with the compassion you felt for those girls. It's not usually something people in your line of work have. Why is that?”
Dan stared down the agent. “Some of us are still human. I told you before that I didn't cotton to women and children being exploited and abused. My mother and I suffered at the hands of my father. My mother took me and ran away. She changed our names and I changed mine yet again to protect her from my business. And believe me, if you guys hadn't had me in cuffs, you'd have had to pull me off that b***h for what she did to that young girl. But, then again, back in her day, she was probably a victim herself. As for Teslin, I despise him.”
