Chapter 8

After the meal Hank and Sadie had provided, Rafe and Briana walked Lucy outside once more before calling it a night.

They made love until midnight and fell asleep in each other’s arms. The bear didn’t return that night, and nothing set off the alarms, allowing them a full night’s sleep.

Briana woke the next day fully refreshed and ready to do something with the day. She suggested they take the drone higher up the mountain and get a feel for the terrain around the cabin. Rafe agreed, and they packed a picnic lunch and the drone, snapped a leash on Lucy and spent the day tromping through the hills, getting to know each other better and laughing a lot.

She learned she was pretty good at operating the drone. Her hands were more adept at subtle changes in direction than his, and she maneuvered the drone all around the hilltop where the cabin perched.

Lucy chased rabbits and drank from mountain streams full of clear, cold water from snow melt.

The day was idyllic, the sun shone down on them, and they didn’t see a single bear or bad guy. Just her, Rafe and Lucy in the beautiful Montana mountains. She could almost believe it was a vacation. And she loved everything about Rafe. He was smart, understood how to get around in rough terrain and took good care to make sure she didn’t walk off a cliff or fall into a ravine.

By the end of the day, she was gloriously tired and happy. Which felt strange, considering she was on the run from a drug lord, the head of a cartel in El Salvador, who had contacts and thugs he could tap into in the States. Who knew how far his reach extended? She should be more afraid, but it was hard to be when she had Rafe with her and she was surrounded by the beauty of the Montana mountains.

They spent another night in each other’s arms, making love until after midnight. Early the next morning, they were awakened by the buzzing of the satellite phone.

Rafe rolled out of the bed and padded barefooted across to the table to answer. “Donovan here.”

He listened for a few minutes, and then nodded. “I’ll tell her… We will. Let us know if you have any trouble. Yes, sir. Out here.”

“Did they get Alejandra moved?” Briana leaned up on an elbow, letting the sheet slide down to expose her breasts. She hoped it would be enough to make Rafe come back to bed and make love to her again. They’d have to add condoms to the list of supplies they needed Hank and Sadie to pick up in town.

That would be awkward.

“Hank said they have Alejandra in a safe house here in Montana with a couple of his guys providing round-the-clock protection. They flew her out on a private plane in the middle of the night and landed in the dark. She and the baby are safe. He wants us to be extra vigilant.”

A knot formed in Briana’s gut.
