CHAPTER TEN

The sun was up by the time she parked the truck behind her brother’s apartment building. She turned off the ignition and momentarily watched people starting to move around, getting their day started. Then she said to Daniel, “Wait here. Try staying out of sight.”

He blinked slowly at her, a look that wasn’t hard for her to interpret.

“Yes, I know you’re too big to hide. But…try?”

He settled his head on the seat and closed his eyes. She frowned.

“You’re not going to pass out are you?”

He opened his eyes and shook his head, then settled back down, closing his eyes again.

Worry gnawed at her gut as she hurried to her brother’s door. His car was still in the lot, so she hoped he was home. Ryan was spending the summer in Philly, doing an internship at the lab where she worked. Their parents insisted he support himself between semesters. She’d had no way of knowing that by getting him a job, he’d be close enough to help her with Daniel.

He opened the door dressed only in a pair of pajama bottoms, his messy black hair hung like a mop above his handsome face.

His eyes narrowed when he saw her. “Sarah. What are you doing here?”

“Why aren’t you dressed for work?”

“It’s only six a.m. And I have the day off. What the hell are you wearing? You raid the men’s department?” He smirked and leaned against the door jam, crossing his arms over his chest.

“I need your help.” Her serious tone made him straighten. “And I need your…discretion. Okay, I need you to keep a secret. From everyone. I mean everyone.”

“Mom can ferret out secrets.”

“You have to keep this one even from mom. Promise me.”

“What’s going on?”

“Promise first.”

“Fine, fine, I promise. What’s the problem?”

“I have Daniel in a truck out back. He’s been shot. The bullet’s still in his shoulder.”

His dark eyes narrowed to slits. “You have a lot to explain.”

“Later. We need to get him inside. And I need you to remove the bullet.”

He gaped at her. “I’m not a doctor yet.”

“You know what to do?”

“Yes. Theoretically. I’ve never performed surgery before though.”

The last was filled with sarcasm. She shook her head. “It doesn’t matter. He’ll heal. We just have to get the bullet out. Do you have a sharp enough knife?”

“I have a scalpel set mom and dad got me for my birthday.”

“They bought you scalpels?”

“Can we discuss their horrendous gift-giving skills later? There’s still the big problem of getting Daniel inside. Is he…?”

He looked around as he trailed off and she realized his neighbors could appear at any moment. Quietly enough only he would hear, she said, “He’s tiger.”

“Oh, good. That makes it so much easier.” With a sigh, he said, “Wait a sec while I get something on.” As he moved back into his apartment, she heard him grumbling, “How the hell are we gonna get a tiger inside without being seen?”

She studied the hallway. If they could get Daniel from the truck, through the back door,
