On that long trip up across the latitudes, Baldwin’s suggestion in the car the night before haunted him like a nightmare, He fought against it but stray thoughts kept getting past his guard. There was Sonya’s passionate de- termination to go into the Lilluars. Her secrecy. Her mention, once, of a week-end trip to Juneau. LeNoir’s order that she must not be harmed. The woman's description of the tall Russian who'd been so frequent a caller at the Volkov home... . In the bush of twilight they sailed over a spearhead range and saw the Iskitimwah lake nestling in its mountain cradle. They cut off ignition, made a long fourteen-mile glide, and drifted down upon the water. Curt’s canoe was. there near the cabin, where he had left it. He floated the craft, shook hands with Smash, gave him final instructions, and set out down the Iskitimwah. It was a little before midnight when he threaded the river delta and pointed his canoe out across the lake toward camp. After three days of freedom from ambushes and ramhorn bows, he was op- pressed by the feeling of danger closing around him again. With Siam-Klale’s main band whipping south and LeNoir probably suspect- ing who Paul and he really were, something drastic was bound to happen, and quickly too. The d loomed up ahead, dark, and silent, Everything seemed peaceful there, Presently he dis- tinguished the outlines of the two tents. Thank God, nothing had gone very wrong while he'd been away! From the upper tip of the island a hawk-owl’s cluck challenged him, So sharp and. peremptory that he had to smile. Trust Paul to spot any canoe approaching that island! He answered back, landed at the lower end, beached his canoe and hurried up to camp. Beside the boulder “fort” Francois and Jocku were rolled up in their eider pokes, sleeping soundly while Paul stood guard. On a spruce mattress under his tent fly Ralph was tossing rest- lessly in a dream. The Indian, Tenn- Og, was not around. Beyond the tents Sonya was sit- ting on a canoe near the water edge, looking out toward the willow island, “Sonya——" She sprang up from the canoe and whirled around, “Ob-oo! Curt! It’s. you!.1 wasn’t expecting—Curt,’ where have you deen all thesé days? Why did you leave us that night?” “I've been prospecting a creck that old John told me about,” he lied. “Everything went all right here, didn’t it?” “Yes, but you were gone so long and Paul wouldn't tell me a thing, and I—I worried about you.” THE ghostly light her face was white and ethereal as she con- fronted him, and her bosom still ‘was heaving from the start he'd given her. She appeared so afraid and alone that all the stern things he meant to tell her dropped away, as once before in the canoe at Rus- sian Lake, “I worried about you too, dear. Are you glad I'm back?” “Awtfully glad! Paul !s depend- able, but he’s—he’s not you.” Her fingers tightened upon bis as though asking him not to go away again. Impulsively Curt swept her into his arms. “Sonya”—his hand caressed her hair, he was fiittingly conscious of that small automatic beneath her Dlouse as he held her close to him —“you seemed so glad—when you saw me... Can't I hope you do care a little bit, sweetheart?” Sonya did not look up or answer Ms question. For a tew moments she lay in his arms, not resisting, with the velvety softness of her | e@heek against his own. Usten.” he urged, not knowing how to interpret her pas- siveness, “I know it's wrong to force myself on you when you feel under | obligations, but I can’t go on not knowing——" She stopped him. “Don’t say that, dear; you'd never take advantage of obligations.” But even as she said PORT TAMPA—HAVANA—WEST INDIES THE -KEY WEST CITIZEN N. VALLEY Byron Mowers 1 10 uraw her hand away, elt her stiffen against him, “Dear, please,” she insisted, ag his arm tightened about her. “I asked you not to, once.” He allowed her to free herself. When Tooked up and saw the bitter disappointment on his face, she kissed his cheek, a brief formal caress which meant no more than her assurance that she forgave his impulsiveness. “Sonya, look here,” he demanded, “is there somebody else?” She turned his question aside, “Curt, I wish you didn’t idealize me so much, You have, ever since we met. You know so terribly Nttle, about the actual me. Our codes are so different. Something that 1 con- sider right in my deepest heart might seem to you an unthinkable wrong.” “Are you meaning this trip of yours?” She debated a moment. “Yes,” “You're making a mountain out of some molehill. The idea of you do- ‘unthinkable wrong’ is ridio- “We won't argue it, Curt. You just wouldn't approve, you'd violently disapprove, of my trip.” “But you told Ralph, and he ev dently doesn’t oppose—” “Ralph’s too gentle to oppose any- body. This has to be & matter of my’ own choice and conscience, After- ward, after it’s all over, I'l) write you or let you know ‘somehow. I'll answer every question you've ever asked me.” “a “You say you'll write ‘fie—won't I see you afterward? Can't I come to see you?” She laughed, bitterly. “You may, if you still want to. But you won't want to.” Before he could stop her she turned away from him and disap peared in the darkness toward her tent. 'URT stared after her, torn by the desire to follow and find out what she meant. He thought it ominous that she had not answered his question, “Is it somebody else?” She seemed to be at war with her self, doing something which violated a part of her instincts, yet driven to it by a passion she could not resist. In a tortured mood he started up the island to join his partner, That ugly suggestion of Arnold Baldwin's was jigging through his brain again, and for once he could not fight it away. Paul came a little way to meet him. “Any luck in Vancouver?” he asked in guarded voice. ae hi “Nothing that | hoped for.” __ “You still don’t know what she’s doing in this country?” “D'you mean you found out some thing?” A Paul changed the subject abrupt ly. “Our Indian friend has de camped.” “Tenn-Og? When?” “Last night. 1 knew he was gt ing, but I didn’t try to stop bim, We don’t need a prisoner to guar ur party is clumsy enough now.” “So he pitched off! Well, you aid the wise thing; if. he wouldn't stay voluntarily he'd. only have been a bother, Did he steal one of our canoes?” “No, be swam it. A little matter like a bullet through his shoulder bothered him not at all.” “Hmmph! If he ever gets the chance, 1 suppose he'll show his gratitude to us by sticking us full of arrows. What else happened around here?” Paul fidgeted and looked out across the dark water. His relue tance and the somber pain on bis tac. struck a chill into Curt, “What's worrying you, Paul? It's something about Sonya, tsn’t it?” “I hate to be the one who brings odious news.” * “Why Paul, what Is it?” Paul sidied into his story with slow unwilling steps. “Sonya was partly the cause of Tenn-Og’s going away. On the day after you left she made friends with him, and 1 knew she had some reason for doing that. Last night, when he left, she sent a message by him. 1 overheard. They were bere by these sentry rocks. I put my self- respect into my pocket, and crept up close enough to liste: “She sent a message by him?” “To that “breed.” “LeNoir?” Curt gasped. “To that fellow!
