What can I say? Old habits are hard to break.

As I enter Noelle's wing, my phone rings.

"Tell me you have good news," I say as I answer the phone.

Carlos chuckles.

"You know I do. I found someone who used to work at the hacienda but quit a while before the fire."

"And?"

"He's willing to talk."

"I don't care if he's willing to talk. Does he have any information?"

Carlos pauses.

"Better yet. He has footage."

I stop in my tracks.

"What do you mean?"

"He was in charge of the security at the hacienda. This was how he managed to quit working and leave the place. He blackmailed Sergio with videos he had of everything that went on."

I swallow hard.

"What exactly does he have, Carlos?"

He pauses. Taking a deep breath, he answers me.

"He has all the footage from the facility where they experimented on people."

"And?"

"You're on…a lot of them."

I close my eyes as my fingers clench around the phone.

"And Noelle I presume."

"Yes. Now, I haven't seen them myself. But the man described some of them to me. They are videos of you two together when you were under the influence."

What…

Fuck! Just thinking about that threatens to make me ill.

Yet this is good news, isn't it? This will prove or disprove Noelle's words and show me exactly what happened to the hacienda.

"Ok, good. That's good," I say absentmindedly. "How much does he want for them?"

"He won't sell unless you go there in person. He is very paranoid, Raf. He still thinks that there are people after him and he won't risk it."

"Fine. I'll go to him. Where?"

Another pause.

"Mexico City. He told me he would only meet a potential buyer in Mexico City."
