Colton watched Katia as he helped her into the truck. Her black curls were in disarray around her face, and her sky-blue eyes were still wide and shell shocked. She hadn’t said anything except thank God since he caught her, and he felt worry well up inside him as he shut the door and walked to his side.

He couldn’t blame her for being freaked out, though. He thought he would be too, if he was a human. Hell, he had been freaked out, worried she’d slip through his grip or he wouldn’t catch her.

Being a shifter, he’d known he could easily jump out of the window and land with no problems, and he’d been confident that he could catch her—mostly. Doubt had tried to creep in, and he thought it was because he couldn’t handle the thought of her getting hurt.

He was already more attached to her than he’d ever imagined he would be, especially this soon. But there was no denying that he was, for good or for bad. It was why the thought of taking her back to Atlanta and using her as bait had made him feel simultaneously violent and ill.

Jumping out of the window had been a risk he hated, but it was a necessary one. His gut said the bastards who had Justin started the fire, and they were waiting for them to come out of their room—by way of the door.

Even now, he hated the fact that they had to be out in the open briefly to get away, and he cringed as he started the truck and it came to life with a loud growl. Quickly putting it in gear, he pulled out as fast as he could without attracting attention, the flashing lights of the firetrucks and police cars lighting up the road behind them.

Using it to make sure no one was following them, he got on the ramp for the interstate, thankful the hotel was close to it. Once they were on the way, he glanced over at Katia, wishing he could read her mind and tell whether she was okay.

“You doing okay over there?”

She glanced over at him and his eyebrows rose as he saw the slight smile on her face. “Yeah. It was scary as hell, but that was the most exhilarating experience of my life. I actually ended up enjoying it.”

Relief washed over him, and he felt his lips curl up in a smile at the shock and enthusiasm in her voice. “It was a rush, right?”

“It definitely was.” Biting her lip, she went quiet for a moment. “So what now? They know who both of us are and what we’re driving. I’m even more for going back to Atlanta now and drawing them out so we can end this before one or both of us gets hurt.”

Exhaling, he tightened his hands on the steering wheel as he shook his head. “I still don’t think that’s a good idea.”

It’s definitely not a good idea, his dragon hissed, not liking that plan any more than he did.
