"Understood."
"You need backup, you call me.I can be there in four hours."
"I will.Thanks, Vincent."
I hang up and stare at the list of names.Five guys.All Special Forces.All loyal to Randall.
This could get messy.
CHAPTER 7
Carla
I quit my job. It wasn’t worth it to be a sitting duck for Randall.And I’m telling myself that I’m just taking a vacation at Timothy’s place.I know I’m hiding out, but I can’t face going back to an empty apartment.Not when the sex is this good.And if I’m really being honest with myself, I’m falling for Timothy.Hard.
He’s humming.Making lunch like this is normal, like I haven't upended his life.He catches me watching and grins.My heart flutters like a school girl.I'm sitting at his kitchen table thinking about how much I want to keep this feeling going.
Keep him.
Which is insane.We've known each other for such a short time.This should feel too fast.Too reckless.But it doesn't.It feels right.
"You're staring at me," he says continuing to make the sandwiches.
"You're humming."
"So?"
"Rangers don't hum."
He glances back, grinning."This one does.Problem?"
"Weird."
"You're weird."He brings the sandwiches over and sets one in front of me."Turkey and swiss.Best I can do."
"It's perfect."
