Carter couldn’t believe someone had tried to kill them. Anger lashed through him as he listened to the chief detailing what they were going to do to investigate the situation. But Carter’s mind was already elsewhere.

After this, he had no choice but to take Amy to his employers, the dragons.

No one could protect her better than them, and the situation was getting more fucked up by the minute.

“Come on,” he said, taking advantage of the moment the chief was talking to someone else to take Amy by the arm and lead her away from the group. He was lucky the chief didn’t know he was a shifter. Right now, he would just think Carter the silly human was keeping Amy from sticking her nose anywhere, and that would suit him just fine.

“Where are we going?” she hissed as they hurried away from the scene.

“Safe house,” he said. “You’ll see.” He pulled out his phone and dialed a number by memory once they were safely down the street from the crowd.

“Shouldn’t we wait and see what they’re going to do about the bomb?” she asked.

“No,” he said. “This just stepped up a notch. And do you really expect the men back there to protect us?” He shook his head. “Someone had the balls to do this right outside the precinct. I can’t trust anyone there. I thought I would have time to figure this out more slowly, but apparently not.”

“Gotcha,” she said, rubbing her hands over her arms.

Carter typed a quick message to the number he’d entered and then slid the phone in his pocket. “Come on,” he said, looking around to make sure no one was following her before pulling her toward the large abandoned lot. When they got over the fence, he started running, dragging her with him.

“Carter, what are we doing?” she asked, shielding her head as they ran forward under a murky gray sky. Thunder sounded overhead.

“I should have done this when we were attacked by a tiger, but I thought I could handle things. But if they just tried to blow us up, then this is way over my head. I’m an enforcer, straight from the dragons, and if someone has the balls to try and do that to me just to get to you, they’re desperate. And they might be close to us.” He looked back at her. “I can’t let anything happen to you.” He ran forward, jerking her along, and she felt her legs growing shaky as they pressed through the tall grass.

Luckily, they’d gone far enough down the road that no one was looking at them.

If someone at the precinct was responsible, the last thing they’d want to do was look suspicious by being all over Carter and Amy.

When she stumbled, he picked her up and swung her into his arms without skipping a beat. When a siren sounded, coming down the street past them, he crouched, staying low in the brown grass. “Shh,” he said, though he was already quiet.
