He looked weary.
He continued, “You toldto let Christos go. If I hadn't known you better, that ungrateful request would have drivenmad." Eileen winced as Bryan's fingers dug into her neck, and her tone softened. "I was afraid you'd kill him or worse. There wasn't tforto explain." What Eileen had managed to say in the heat of the moment were those three firm words: "Let him go."

Suddenly, Eileen jerked back. "Wait! There was someone else with Christos. I forgot to ask who helped him kidnap me." She craned her neck out of the window, but the helicopter was now just a speck in the distant sky. "Oh no, he's gone!" she exclaimed.
