And that right there was why Eliot got in trouble. He assumed that people knew things, and spoke openly, not understanding that Vance didn't share unless he had to. Now, she could go alone and betray Marty or pretend. The choice was easy.
"Less dangerous? We've always planned to go after them, since they disappeared back in December. It wasn't a matter of being dangerous. We don't leave anyone behind. Vance won't leave those four people. If there's something else-" She shrugged. "He hasn't shared. Then again, I didn't know about the threats or cutting you off, which is why I emailed you in the first place."
The rest was so much easier to deal with and she snorted. "Let me see. We hunted feral cats, cooked them on open fires with no tools and had them for dinner. Trust me, we had the nightmares. All the food is cooked here, on open fires or ashes, dinner is prepared at lunch time and eaten cold in the car. The kids are the only one getting decent food, because of all the baby and toddler foods. Lots of protein powder to help, vitamins, fruit. Still I've been tempted to steal the lasagna meal from the twins."
