Chapter Twelve

No one waited to for them, guns drawn, when the elevators doors opened. She watched Daren scan the garage, but it revealed nothing more than parked cars. He took a cautious step out, examined the area then waited longer. Long enough for her to nearly get her crazy heartbeat under control.

She’d almost had sex in an elevator.

The thought sent a rush of pure, hungry longing for just that through her body.

He turned and looked her up and down with a heat that drove that spike of lust higher. The way his face tightened with intensity made her shiver. It also made her nervously consider that he might want to continue—right now—where they’d left off.

His gaze zeroed on her hand holding her high heels and his frown grew.

She shrugged and said, “I thought it might be easier, you know, if we have to run. I also need a phone. I need to call—”

“I’ll get you all that, and some running shoes, but you can’t walk across a parking garage barefoot.” He glanced at her feet and shook his head. “No way are you getting those beauties damaged, baby. Put those back on or I’ll carry you.”

Was he serious? She still didn’t know when he was teasing and when he wasn’t.

“I’m not kidding. Shoes on or you’re over the shoulder.”

“Fine,” she grumbled and leaned on his warm arm to slip the four-inch heels on her aching feet. If she had to run in these again, she might strangle him. The mere thought of it, made her warn him. “There, but no running.”

“Agreed. No running, come on,” he murmured, taking her hand to help her along.

“Where are we going?”

He scanned the cars near them and the exit signs before he told her, “There’s a room not far from here. We’ll settle in there and wait for Tazz.”

What? She pulled herself to a stop or tried to. Daren tugged her along with a quick glance then slowed.

“I need to go to my dad’s lab. I can’t waste more time, Daren. I need to call Eric. You said you—”

“Who the hell is Eric?” he asked, stopping her beside a comfortable looking BMW with tinted windows. He glanced in the front windshield then nodded to her. “Ky? Who’s Eric?”

She drew a breath trying to decide how much to tell. All of it, she thought with a look at Daren. He deserved everything from her. “Eric is a man who worked for my father, and is now the man contacting me with the kidnappers’ demands.”

Daren’s shocked—and if she had to guess, pissed-off—frustrated expression almost looked comical, except it wasn’t. Worse, she now knew enough of Daren to know he was going to take Eric down and pull his life apart to find out if he was to blame for this or not.

“I think he’s in on it, Daren. He’s not giving me—”

Daren stalked to her side, hands fisted on his lean hips, stopping her without even saying a word. “If you’re going to dish me out information this late, make it good, Kylie.
