A/N: A brief note. The pirate's Code of Parley, was real, and not something made up for the movies. They kept to strict codes, and pirates were, at times, even more regimented than the military. It kept them from killing one another (for the most part), and allowed them to do "legal" and "fair" trades. In my research for this story, I found Pirates to be very interesting, albeit, deadly. Thank you. Please continue to enjoy the story. All the best, LDB.
The entire village of Anoa'i became as silent as an empty church. They all stared at the beautiful gold watch that dangled from a gold chain, held fast in Adam's hand.
Even Captain Vince McMahon looked surprised, as did his son and First Mate, Shane. Vince looked over at Captain Paul Heyman. Heyman's head was in his hands. Was it disbelief or fear that he'd been caught?
Brock's mouth moved but no words came out. Adam's anger rose. "How did you get this? And tell me the truth!" His hazel eyes bore into Lesnar's very soul. Braun suddenly stood behind Lesnar.
Roman glared at Lesnar. "You'd better speak up. And tell the truth. Adam deserves to know what happened to his husband. His children deserve to know what happened. Did you murder him? Did you?" At that moment, Roman could have been a Solicitor instead of a Doctor.
Lesnar's entire being changed. If possible, he looked even colder than Stephanie McMahon. "I did not murder anyone." He spoke firmly, he'd been played and Brock Lesnar didn't like being played.
"Then answer my question. Where did you get this watch? It was very unique. It was a gift to my husband from the hand of Queen Victoria herself." Adam's anger built, but he held steady. He also kept quiet the fact that the watch still told perfect time.
Brock returned Adam's glare. "I found it, along with the crate of supplies for Doctor Helmsley. Anything found at sea is finders keepers." He gave a huff.
"Ah yes, the crate of medical supplies. Hunter, why don't you tell us something. What was so unusual about that crate of supplies?" He looked at Hunter, who sat to Sika's left.
Hunter put down his cup of tea. "There was something very odd about that crate. Except for the last quarter inch or so, everything was as dry as a bone. Blankets, cloth for bandages, the powdered medicine, was all dry. That crate couldn't have been in the water more than an hour, two at the most. That means Lord Barrett could have been alive. Was he? Did you save him, only to kill him?" Hunter also glared at Lesnar.
Heyman spoke. "We were tossed about at the back edge of the storm The water was churning. We saw bits of wreckage. When I saw the crate, I ordered my crew to haul it in. Lord Barrett was no where near the crate." He was defensive, but told what he knew.
"I still haven't gotten an answer. Where did you get the watch? I have a right to know what happened to my husband. You actually thought I would walk on the beach with you, after you tried to...to...molest me?" Adam once again blasted out his words. Villagers gasped, they hadn't heard that Lesnar had tried to attack Adam.
Lesnar crossed his arms over his chest. "This isn't a court of law. I don't have to answer you. You have your precious watch. Just leave me alone. We will be gone tomorrow." He wasn't about to say anything. He wanted Adam to suffer. What better way than to stay quiet.
Braun Strowman stepped up behind Lesnar. He placed his huge hands on Brock's shoulders. Brock Lesnar is not a small man, but compared to Braun, he looked very small indeed. Braun leaned forward to speak in Brock's ear.
"You will tell my Lord Adam, where and how you got Lord Barrett's watch. If you don't, you will regret it." Braun's deep voice was soft and calm, which made him even more intimidating.
Brock swallowed hard, he could feel the power in the hands that rested on his shoulders. "Kill me if you want. Then who will be the murderer? Just let your Lord be happy he has the watch. I want to leave peacefully."
"I don't think anyone would even notice you were gone. There is no law here, so how could it be murder?" Braun's voice growled in Lesnar's ear.
Sika spoke. "As much as it pains me, I can not let you kill someone; for your own peace of mind. Mister Lesnar, we can not force you to answer the question asked of you. If you can live your life like that, hurting three people, who do not deserve to be hurt. Adam and his children have suffered enough. A real man, would speak the truth, without fear. Are you a real man or not, Mister Lesnar?" He looked his guest directly in the eye. Sika could not and would not let Braun kill Lesnar.
Brock shifted in his seat. Braun had stepped back, Sika was right. Brock was now so confused he wasn't sure what to say or do.
Jason looked at Lesnar. "I don't care if you are a man or a mouse, tell my brother what happened. My brother deserves...no...he needs to know how you got Wade's watch."
Heyman slammed his hand down on the table. Nearly everyone jumped. "This is getting to the point of ridiculous. What does it matter? It is just a piece of gold. As a watch it is worthless. It will never work, not after being in salt water. You have your memento of your husband. Just let it rest. There was all kinds of debris in the water." He was angry, he didn't like to see Brock being made a fool of.
Adam laughed, but not from humor. "There is just one problem, Captain Heyman..." Adam paused and opened the watch. The timing was perfect as it was the quarter hour, the watch chimed. A low murmur of whispers went around the two tables.
"Wade's watch hasn't lost so much as a second of time. How do you explain that? Captain Heyman? Mister Lesnar?" Adam's hazel eyes were ablaze with the fire of anger.
It was all Roman could do to keep from pulling the knife he always carried and plunging into Brock Lesnar's black heart. He had remained silent, because it was Adam's fight, but now, it was going too far.
"Answer him, just answer him!" Roman stood and pointed at Lesnar with a growl. He was so angry, Roman shook.
Adam reached up and laid a hand on Roman's arm. He didn't want his friend to do anything stupid on his account. This was his fight.
Roman looked down at Adam, he could see the worry in the hazel eyes. He sat back down and took a calming comfort from Adam.
Lesnar guffawed. "So much for your dead husband. I see it now, you are sharing your bed with the son of the Chief. At least you've managed to stay within your class. Tell me, son of the Chief, is he as good in the bed as I thought he would be?"
Five people exploded to their feet at the same time. Roman, Jason, Dean, Braun and Hunter. Adam was so mortified that all the courage he once had, left him.
Everyone was too busy either yelling or trying to prevent Brock's death, that they didn't notice when Adam slipped away into the darkness. Adam had to get away, he knew he could never face anyone ever again.
Adam ran to the north, he knew the beach was a dead end. He was so upset, he didn't even think about Eliza and Alex.
Back in the village, Brock was dragged to a small hut, mainly to keep him from being killed by Roman and Jason. Braun stood in front of the door to the hut. There were no windows or back door, as it was a storage hut, not a home hut. Lesnar was trapped.
Roman's father stood. "Quiet now! Everyone sit down!..." Chief Sika waited a few moments for the gathered group to settle back in their seats.
Sika raised his hand, there was total silence. "I want to make it clear, that everything that was said about my son and Adam is a total lie. It is a terrible lie. My son is friends with Adam, but, that is all there is between them. If I hear one word of this, I will be angry. This is the end of it." Sika spoke firmly, like a stern parent as he addressed his "children" of the village.
Roman spoke next. "To add to my Tama's words, I swear on the Great One, there is no truth to what that maile Lesnar said. Adam is my good friend, and so are his children. Yes, I am often at his home, reading or playing with the children, to help Adam. Adam is studying to be a nurse. He is also the one tending my wound, under Hunter's supervision. Yes, I have slept at Adam's home, on the couch as Adam calls it. Hunter himself recommended it because of my wound. Nothing has ever happened between Adam and I. So, as my Tama, our Chief has said, no more shall be spoken about this. On top of it all, Adam is still in deep mourning for his beloved husband to even think about being with anyone else." He too spoke firmly.
Hunter took his turn to speak. "I just want to briefly add, Roman spoke the truth. I asked Adam to keep an eye on Roman by letting him sleep on the couch. Adam and Roman's reputations are sterling."
Everyone was surprised when Captain Paul Heyman stood. "I must apologize for my First Mate. I don't know why he said what he said, but I am sure it is not true. I also know nothing about the watch or what happened. I only know about the crate of supplies. We came upon the debris, and I ordered the crate be pulled up. Later when we joined Captain McMahon, he said we would deliver the crate, as he wanted to trade here. That is the truth. I can't add anymore." He was as honest as he could be.
Captain McMahon spoke out. "That is true. I also know nothing about the watch. I want this matter cleared up, or there will be no peace. Pirate I may be, but, we are here under the Code of Parley. I will not break that code. If you will allow it, High Chief Sika, we will stay until this matter of the watch is solved. It may sound off, from a pirate, but as I stated, we are here under Parley, and that is a different thing altogether."
Sika nodded. "Yes, you are welcome, as long as you stay to your code. Now, my son, Jason, Dean I think you'd better go look for Adam. I see that he has vanished. I'd try north, he would know he would be found easily at the beach." He indicated to Adam's empty seat.
Roman and Jason both looked to where Adam had sat. They had both been to angry to notice Adam had left. Jason looked at Roman.
"He must have been mortified by what that bastard said. We have to find him, Roman. Adam doesn't think straight when he is upset. Hunter?" Jason called out to the Doctor.
Hunter joined Jason and Roman. "Don't worry. Shawn and I will take care of the children. And, of course we won't tell them why.."
Roman nodded. "Yes, good. Thank you. I will arrange for torches. Meet you at Adam's place, make sure he didn't run home. Jason, we will find him. If he gets far enough north, my Uncle will see that he is safe. Meet you at Adam's in ten minutes." With a nod to Roman, Jason and Dean headed for Adam's hut.
Roman grabbed three torches that were filled with fat. He also took an extra flask of the rendered fat to fill the torches again if it took that long. The last thing Roman grabbed was an extra flint and stone. He always carried a flint, but it never hurt to have an extra. As a last minute thought, Roman slung his bow and a quiver of arrows over his shoulder. After all it would be dangerous if they ran into a pack of wild boar.
Jason and Dean both searched Adam's house. They then checked the privy, the chicken coop and the lean-to where Molly slept. Adam was no where to be found, nor was there any evidence that he'd been there. Jason and Dean heard Roman call out to them.
Roman gave Jason and Dean a torch each, and kept one for himself. He struck the flint and stone three times and the three torches were lit.
"Why the bow? You expect trouble?" Dean asked as they turned left and headed north to look for Adam.
Roman shifted the bow so it didn't rub against his wound. "Wild boar live to the north. They can rip a man apart...we'd better hurry. Chances are there won't be any boar, but...come on." He stepped up his pace.
Adam ran till he couldn't run anymore. It was too dark and it was colder in the deep forest. Adam was scared, not so much of the dark, but of his now soiled and ruined reputation. And what must Roman think, or Jason, let alone Hunter and Dean. He could never go back, not to Anoa'i Village. Maybe he could sneak back, grab his children and go to Maivia Village.
Adam sat on a log in a small clearing. He gnawed on his thumbnail. He finally thought of his children. He sighed. He could not take Eliza and Alex away from Jason, Shawn, Hunter, Heath, Seth, Dean, Braun and all their friends from the village. But Adam wondered how he could stay, people thinking he and Roman were having...sexual relations...and outside of marriage.
"Oh Wade...Wade...All I wanted to do was find out what happened to you. I have to know, were you alive, trying to get to us? Oh Wade…I could and would never do what we...I miss you so much, my love. I wish you could tell me what to do..." Adam spoke to the heavens, then jumped out of his skin when he heard a voice.
"Maybe you should go back home. The jungle is a dangerous place in the dark." The voice spoke from the shadows, and wasn't alone.
A man in an Admiral's uniform stepped out of the darkness. Five uniformed sailors, who carried torches were with the man.
The man had nearly shoulder length blond hair that curled loosely. His face grew a blond beard that was light and well trimmed. He stood six feet tall and looked to weigh around two hundred thirty pounds. The man also had a naturally impish look about him. He was a true sailor, lean, muscular and trim. His uniform was as neat as the man who wore it. His blue coat bore brass buttons and his kneel length britches were as white as a Canadian snow.
Adam could only stare at the man. He couldn't find any words. He was so shocked to see another westerner. Could he know about Wade?
The man removed his tricorn hat and bowed. "Let me introduce myself. I am Captain Kenny Omega, of the SS Kirby's Bounty. I have been hired by a private party in the Orient, to hunt down and bring to justice a couple of pirates. We heard a rumor they could be here. Now, you know who I am, tell me who you are, please?" Captain Omega sat down on the log next to Adam. His companions quickly built a small, but warm fire. Then the five men vanished into the background.
"Are they from China?" Adam had noticed the five men with Omega weren't western, but looked like the men who came from China to work in the mines around Canada.
Kenny chuckled. "No, they are from Japan, and they work for my client, now for me. I spend most of my time in the Orient, but this client is very determined that I find my bounty." He explained as he warmed his hands.
"So, if you are a bounty hunter, and a Captain, why are you wearing an Admiral's uniform?" Adam asked, brow arched. He wanted to know more before he told a bounty hunter anything.
Omega chuckled once again. "Not going to trust me? Well, maybe that is a wise idea...for now. I am good person. I rid the seas of criminals. The uniforms were a gift from my client. He wanted me to look more official. It is not an Admiral's uniform. I would never impersonate an officer. See, I have no markings, no epaulets, no gold braids. It is just a new uniform that is styled like an Admiral. I am however, a real Captain. I was in the Canadian Navy for several years. I fell in love with the far East and resigned from the Navy. I became a bounty hunter when a good friend of mine was killed by a crew of Chinese pirates. I have since become one of the best bounty hunters on the seven seas. Now, not another word about me, at least until I know your name and why you are alone in the jungle at night, on Apolima, Samoa."
Adam smiled. "My name is Adam Copeland-Barrett. You're from Canada? We are from Toronto." He gave a bit of basic information, but no more.
"What a small world. I am from Calgary. Barrett...Barrett...from Toronto? Isn't there a Lord Barrett in Toronto? Seems like I heard something about him a few months ago when I was in Vancouver, looking for a bounty." Kenny rubbed his chin.
Adam sighed. "Lord Wade Barrett was my husband. We were on our way to Sidney. Queen Victoria appointed Wade as the new Consulate General. She wanted him to establish her rule in Australia, with Wade's more modern ideas..." Once he started, Adam couldn't stop. He told Kenny his entire story, the voyage, the shipwreck, the baby, Mark and Glenn, his children and Wade. Adam also told everything that led him to be alone in the woods.
"...I was just so mortified, I ran away. I even left my children...I am sorry… I just… couldn't stop...I can't… leave the village, but how can I stay..." Adam was emotionally drained from telling it all again.
Kenny just looked at Adam. The poor blond had been to hell, had started to come back, then was booted right back to hell. He smiled. "Well I may have some good news for you. I am after Heyman and Lesnar, or rather, my client is. If we had made it to Fiji two days earlier, we would have had them. Now, I am glad we didn't, you wouldn't have gotten your watch back. You want to know what happened? I will find out. My client wants them alive, but, I have ways. I am sorry for all you have been through..." Kenny paused and took a pipe from his pocket, packed it with tobacco from a leather pouch, and lit it, all while in deep thought.
"I am sure the people of the village will not give any credence to what Lesnar said. You must go back. Running away will only give credit to his words. I am sure, those that know you, know it isn't true. You are right, you can't uproot your children again. Like most things, it will blow over and be replaced by something bigger...like my arrival..." Omega paused again, his ears perked, so did Adam's.
"Addy Joe! Adam! Addy!" Jason's voices was heard from the south.
"Adam! Oh Adam, where are you? No one believes what he said! Adam, please answer." Roman's voice sounded so desperate.
Kenny tapped out his pipe in the fire. "You'd better answer. You to want to worry your friends and family. Remember, they love you or they wouldn't be looking for you."
Adam sighed. "I suppose you're right. Here, I am over here, Jason, Roman." He called out loud enough to be heard.
After a few minutes, Roman, Jason and Dean stepped into the firelight in the clearing. Roman laughed, Jason hugged Adam and Dean looked confused as Roman embraced the stranger that was with Adam.
"Omega! I thought we'd seen the last of you! Why didn't anyone see your ship?" Roman was pleased to see Kenny again.
Kenny laughed. "We saw the Black Dragon. Didn't want them to see us, so we sailed around to your Uncle's place. We were on our way to Anoa'i. Your father knew, but was told not to tell anyone. I am not loosing this bounty. Especially after what sweet Adam has told me. He is lucky we came upon him. A pack of wild boar were headed this way, but we diverted them." Kenny smiled, Roman had turned to Adam. Kenny knew then Roman cared deeply for the pretty blond.
Roman pulled Adam into his arms. "You don't have anything to worry about. No one, and I mean no one believes one word Lesnar said. Tama told people to never talk about it. Hunter backed him up. Adam, I would never hurt you like that. Lesnar took a gesture from a caring friend and made it ugly. You only wanted to stop me from doing something stupid, like put my knife through his heart." Roman's eyes pleaded with Adam.
Jason spoke to his brother. "Roman is right. Hunter explained that Roman slept on your couch at his suggestion. He told how you were taking care of Roman's wound, as his nurse. No one believed what that bastard said. Adam, please don't let his words get to you. Things had gotten better, you were getting better, making a new life and a stable home for Eliza and Alex. Hold your head up and be proud. You know it isn't true, and Adam, Wade knows it isn't true. You need to stand up and finish what you started. You need to find out what happened to Wade. You can't do that and run away. When you ran tonight, you let Lesnar win." Jason spoke with tough love in his voice.
Adam stepped back and balled up his fists. "You are all right. I let that...bastard beat me. It will not happen again. I am going home, and Roman, you are sleeping on my couch. Now, I am getting my children." He started walking; in the wrong direction.
Jason stopped his brother. "Slow down. Shawn, Heath and Hunter have the children. They aren't going to say anything about tonight. You know they will be safe from harm with them. I want to know who this is and should I thank him for finding you, Addy." Jason was cautious as he looked at Captain Kenny Omega.
Roman looked at Jason. "You can trust this man. He is Captain Kenny Omega. He is a bounty hunter. Our waters are safer because of him. We last saw him a year or so ago, on his way to Japan. I hope he is here to solve Adam's problem."
"I am here to take Heyman and Lesnar to my client. I have been chasing them for a good while now. The storm threw us all off track. Your dear brother told me the whole story from the time you left Toronto to what happened tonight. I will find out what happened to Lord Barrett. I swear it on my honor." Kenny gave Jason a bow of respect.
Jason returned the bow. "I thank you for finding my brother and for listening to him. He deserves to know what happened to his husband. I really hope you can find out. I am also glad to know you are...arresting them...so to speak. What about Captain McMahon? I have a trade in the works with him, under the Code of Parley."
Kenny watched as his companions from Japan put out the fire. "I have no beef with McMahon. His passengers at times, yes, but not him. Tell me, is that bitch of a daughter with him?" Kenny's voice turned a bit bitter as he spoke of Stephanie.
Roman nodded. "Yes, she is. Sounds like you know her." His brow arched at the bounty hunter.
"Indeed I do..." He paused and pulled back the collar of his shirt. Kenny pointed to a small scar. "It came from her knife. She didn't like the fact that I had a bounty on her lover. He didn't like it either. We got into a fight, Andrew lost and Stephanie tried to kill me. Luckily she was dragged away by her brother. I let it go. I had no quarrel with her. She was naturally upset that Andrew had lost his life. It was his choice. He could have come with me peacefully." Kenny answered matter of fact. I was what it was.
Adam frowned. "Maybe that's why she's the way she is. Losing the person you love is a hard thing. I was and am lucky. I have family and friends to hold me together. Why wouldn't her father know and understand this?" He shrugged.
"Her father wasn't there. She probably hadn't told him about Andrew, and she most likely threatened Shane to stay quiet. Andrew was the adopted son of a rival Captain, Ted Turner. Vince McMahon hated Turner and wanted him out of business. It was a mess. I had a client who wanted Andrew, for what reason, I have no idea. He wanted Andrew alive. Andrew decided different. I hate killing...but...I don't want to be killed either." Kenny was again matter of fact as he explained things.
Jason gave a low whistle. "I don't think I could be a bounty hunter. However, with no real law around, criminals have to be...handled. Well, we should head back now." Jason started to leave, the whole topic bothered him.
"Wait." Kenny stopped Jason. "One more thing. Roman, I don't want Heyman to know we are here. Your father didn't expect us till morning. We were about to camp for the night. Please, keep it quiet that we are here."
Roman patted Kenny on the shoulder. "Not to worry, my friend. Not a word. Where are you going to camp?"
"You can come to my place. I owe you for helping me. You can use the children's room and the main room floor. My home is not near the village." Adam extended the invitation.
Kenny shook his head. "That is very kind of you, Adam. There are six of us, we don't want to be any trouble. We were going to the clearing by the hot spring."
"I insist. You have helped me, and are going to continue to help me. I can't pay you, but I can offer you a place to stay and food, even if I am not the best cook." Adam was even more insistent.
Roman spoke. "You can keep me company, tell me what you have been up to. I wouldn't argue with Adam. He does make a good cup of tea and makes a fantastic breakfast. You won't get a better offer. He is in a good location, away from the village. My hut is next door, and Jason is the next hut, so no nosy neighbors. I doubt if the cow, chickens or ducks will talk." He laughed as Adam nodded in agreement.
Kenny turned to his companions. They spoke in a low whisper and it was in Japanese. He turned back to the others. "Thank you, Adam. I will accept your kind invitation. However, my men will not. They mean no disrespect at all, but, they want to post a guard. It is their choice." As Kenny spoke, the five men bowed deeply to Adam. It was the ultimate in respect.
Adam returned the bow. "You are welcome, any time." He smiled at the men and all five smiled at Adam in return.
As they made their way to Adam's hut, the five men from Japan dispersed into the darkness. Kenny assured Adam, that if some how, Lesnar escaped, he would quickly be found.
Everything was dark and quiet around Adam's home. Dean bid everyone a goodnight and headed home. Once inside Adam's hut, Kenny and Roman closed all the window shutters, then lit the fat lamps.
Jason spoke to his brother in Adam's bedroom. "I will tell Hunter your back. I won't mention Captain Omega. Adam, honestly, no one in the village believed what he said. Sika ordered that no one speak of it. It will be alright. I love you little brother. I'll take care of the livestock in the morning. Will you be alright? I will stay if you want." He pulled Adam in for a hug.
"I love you, big brother. I was a fool to runaway. I know these wonderful people don't believe I slept with Roman. No, you go home. I can't get dependent on someone always being here. Besides, I have those two to keep me safe. I want to keep an eye on Roman. Hunter is worried about his wound. Come for breakfast. Oh and bring in some tomatoes and potatoes with the eggs and milk. Thank you, Jason. I know I've been a nutcase, but, once I find out what happened to Wade, it will get better." Adam hugged his brother.
"Sure thing. Well, goodnight. See you in the morning." Jason helped by taking the pillows and blankets for Kenny and Roman on the way out.
Adam pulled out the nightshirt Roman used. He sighed and pulled one of his own out for Kenny and hoped it would fit. As much as he loved his precious children, Adam was glad they were safely tucked away at the Helmsley's. He would also make sure Seth and Heath kept them well away from everything going on.
When Adam got to the living room, Roman and Kenny were making up their beds. Roman on the couch, Kenny on the floor in the corner.
"You can use the children's room. You don't have to sleep on the floor. Here are a couple of nightshirts. Do you want tea? I am going to have one. Kenny, are you hungry?" Adam handed out the night shirts with a smile.
"I am fine here. Roman and I need to talk. I would love a cup of tea. Um…I am a bit hungry, some bread and cheese would do." Kenny hated to put Adam to any trouble.
"It's not a problem. I will have it ready soon. It is so quiet in here, no children and the shutters closed. Roman, how does the wound feel?" Adam spoke as he made himself busy in the kitchen.
"Wound feels fine, nurse. I know what you mean. I feel like I should be reading from the fairy tale book. I hope you can eventually meet Eliza and Alex, Kenny. They are just wonderful, and so smart. Alex just turned four and he is quite the artist. Eliza is nearly six and is as wises as sixty. They are just Adam, and I am sure Wade, in miniature." Roman spoke warmly about Adam's children.
Adam's heart warmed with love as Roman spoke of his babies. He just listened as he continued to quietly work in the kitchen.
Kenny sat on the couch with Roman. He'd removed his jacket and unbuttoned his shirt. "I hope I can meet them. Children are nice. That is the one thing about living at sea. No time for a family. It would be nice to spend time with good children." Kenny let out a sigh.
Adam brought a tray with tea and a plate of sandwiches along with some sliced tomatoes. He poured three cups of tea, then took his cup and sat in his chair.
Kenny grabbed a sandwich and took a huge bite. Roman chuckled. "I think someone was more hungry than he let on."
Kenny swallowed. "Very good, cold chicken. Thank you, Adam. I am hungry."
The three sat and made general chat while Kenny ate and the others drank their tea. When Adam finished, he stood.
"I am off to bed. I am exhausted. I have a feeling tomorrow is going to be another long day. I only want one thing. To know the truth about what happened to Wade." Adam put his cup in the kitchen.
It was Roman who spoke. "If anyone can find out, it's Kenny. Get some sleep, Adam. Tomorrow is a new day. Just remember, no one and I mean no one believed what Lesnar said. Go, dream of your children and Wade, in a happy place."
"Goodnight, Adam. Sweet dreams and thank you. You will have your answers soon." Kenny added his thoughts.
Would Adam get his answers and if he did, what would they be?
