♥ Chapter 14 ♥

The second run of the day did what it was meant to: exhaust Cassandra’s body. It was with a heaving chest she returned home, eager to drink cool water and hop in the shower. She wondered what she would find, and was only slightly disappointed to see her door closed and no sign of the guys.

She was about to slide her keys in when the door flew open and Renzo pulled her in, his arms wrapping around her. His embrace muffled her cry of shock, and it gave her pause.

When he let her go, she peered up at him. “What’s going on?”

Renzo glanced behind her instead and closed the door. Then locked it.

“Ok… Now I’m worried.” When Renzo turned to her, Cassandra’s eyes widened at the blood on his shirt. She also realized something else. “Where’s Damon?” On a breathless chuckle, she added, “Please tell me you didn’t kill him.”

When Renzo froze, Cassandra’s heart dropped in her stomach.

“No, no! God, no. Cass, you know me better than that,” Renzo hurried to add. “I didn’t kill him, he’s off… Umm…” The way he paced rather than talk, running his hands through his hair in frustration, clued her in that something happened.

“What’s going on?” Cassandra asked.

Renzo stopped mid-step, his mouth opening and closing like a gaping fish. When he finally spoke, his answer was not what she expected.

“Damon saved my life.”

Damon pulled in the warehouse by the marina after triple checking he wasn't followed. It figured that Sean wasn’t a genius, but considering his previous interactions with the cop, better to be safe than sorry. It wouldn’t do to be found with a dead body in a stolen car.

Not bothering to park properly, Damon jumped out of the car and rapped twice on the door. When no one answered, he pummelled the door with his fist, then waited. Moments later, it opened to reveal one of his teammates.

“Zak.” Damon nodded in greeting, then motioned with his head to follow.

A head shorter than him, but twice his weight in bulk alone, Zak moved like a tank. He’d been trained not to be surprised, and obey orders without question. Yet when Damon opened the passenger door and showed him the dead body, he whistled in appreciation.

“Clean kill, D. Someone hit on your girl or something?”

Damon growled. “If only. This was a trained sniper, and he tried to kill Fabrizio Moretti’s son. In front of me.”

Zak’s whistle halted, and he narrowed his eyes. Despite not being a field agent, even he knew that a sanctioned hit was the opposite of good news. “Shit. All right, I’ll pull Paco in on it. With all the tech mumbo jumbo, he might find something out.”

Damon nodded, then reached in his back pocket and held up the assassin’s cell. “See what else Paco can get off this thing. And try to get rid of the car, too. In the meantime, I got someone to see.”

“No more dead bodies, I hope.” Zak’s grin said he expected the contrary.
