MILA
“Need to see you in my office.”
Rubbing my hand along my forehead, I sighed. I shouldn’t have
answered the phone when I saw who it was, but I knew my father well, and
if I didn’t answer this time, he’d find a way to make sure I answered the
next time. “Why?”
“Isn’t it enough that a father wants to see his daughter?”
Twisting from where I sat on the bed, I looked at the closed door to the
bedroom. “I can’t, Dad. I just started a new position.”
“Which is…?” he prodded.
I didn’t want to tell him where I worked or who I worked for, but there
was no point in hiding it. My father was Sam Kavanaugh, a respected
military general who took an equally high-ranking position in the FBI after
he decided to leave his military career. He could get any information on
anyone he chose. All he had to do was make a few calls.
“Are you implying you don’t already know where I am and who I’m
working for?” I challenged, knowing the answer he likely wouldn’t admit.
“You said you wanted a fresh start, and I respect that.” He paused, and I
braced for the guilt trip he was working up to. “I just want to see for myself
that you’re doing well.”
And there it was. He was playing dad or at least the dad I knew growing
up. He was supportive and loving, encouraging me to reach for the stars.
Until those stars were behind the doors of one of the last boy’s only
institutions, and then I saw a different side to my father.
One that I hated.
“This is my first assignment with my new team, Dad, and I don’t want
to give them any reason to think I’m not fully committed.” Playing on his
sense of duty was probably a wasted effort, but I was willing to try anything
to avoid a trip back to Washington, DC.
“What’s the assignment?”
“It’s confidential.”
“I don’t need names, Mila.”
His tone told me he was tired of talking and not getting exactly what he
wanted. “I’m protecting a witness.”
“Is she allowed to leave the state?”
She.
There it was.
He knew, and he wasn’t attempting to hide the fact that he not only
knew but lied about knowing. I could call him on it, but it wouldn’t do me
any good. He was a very smart man. He was letting me know without
saying directly that there would never be a time that he wouldn’t know
exactly where I was and what I was doing.
“Yes,” I replied simply.
“Then I don’t see the problem.” His tone changed to the one I
recognized as my superior. “I’ll expect you in my office tomorrow morning,
nine o’clock.”
