Kuban kept at it. “You’ve been spending time with the injured guy the last couple of days. Did he ask you about anything?”
“He asked about falconry techniques, and for recommendations on good food and fun places nearby,” Dane replied.
“That’s it?”
Dane stopped walking and fixed him with an annoyed stare. “What did you think he would ask me about?”
Kuban’s lips twitched into a smile. “I thought maybe he’d ask you about some kind of ‘baby’.”
Dane didn’t miss a beat. “Our eagles are our biggest ‘babies’! He already asked about them.”
Kuban nodded quickly. “Oh, right.”
“Stop following me,” Dane said, dismissing him. “I need to go home and look after my brother.”
Kuban nodded eagerly. “Okay, see you later.”
Dane walked off without another word. Kuban watched his back, a frown creasing his forehead. “…”
Dane felt the hostile gaze on his back but didn't turn around. He stopped by a neighbor’s house first to call Diaz home.
Once they were back, Diaz asked, “Brother, did Wyatt get in trouble again today?”
Dane shook his head. “Wyatt is a good man. He’s a hero.”
“Then what about Lowell and Mr. Bradford?” Diaz asked.
“What about them?” Dane countered.
“Kuban came looking for me today,” Diaz explained. “He was asking about them, asking if they were good guys or bad guys.”
