Two hours later, Jem touched the medical helo down on the roof of a hospital that was three towns over.

“Thanks so much,” the transplant nurse said, beaming. “If we’d had to wait for the other pilot, this might not have made it.”

Jem nodded. “It’s my pleasure.” And together, they walked into the roof access and through the hospital. Jem found some scrubs after he’d delivered the nurse safely to her floor and then walked out of the hospital and caught a cab.

He thought about stealing a car, but hell, he’d attracted enough attention today. And when he arrived at the new hotel, they all packed up, ready to hit the road and move farther away, out of state and out of reach.

It was only after they were packed into the suburban, rented under one of Gunner’s many aliases, that Key asked Jem, “Do we even want to know?”

“I definitely want to,” Gunner called back, and the others nodded in agreement. He felt a hand on his shoulder—Drea’s. He turned his head to the side and smiled, just for her.

“I mean, the quarantine scare was all you,” Avery said.

“Nope, not me,” Jem said. “Okay, me, but I didn’t do anything but call a doctor across the way and mention my symptoms and beg for help.”

When all the ambulances started racing over, along with medical staff swarming and cautioning the hotel manager and random FBI agents about the very contagious virus that appeared to be flooding the hotel, Jem had been receiving a visit from the FBI.

“So, you just escaped without seeing the FBI?” Grace asked.

“I saw them—several agents walked in on me, and then they left.”

“Bullshit!” Key shouted.

“No, really. They were pretty embarrassed at catching me in the act, so they quickly backed out, apologizing,” Jem assured him.

Key frowned at him from the seat next to him, and Jem knew the others were sitting there, trying to figure it out as well.

Amateurs.

Finally, Key snapped his fingers. “You were not masturbating in front of the FBI!”

“In some woman’s pink silk robe, yes,” Jem agreed, his voice serious. “They didn’t know what the fuck to do, but they assumed they had some hotel freak who liked to wear women’s clothes and jack off to porn. It helped that I stole the CEO of some juice company’s room and ID card. So basically, they think he’s some crazy guy and they were way more worried about the plague. And then I helped to get the transplant nurse to the right hospital and now here we are. But the feds are still looking for us . . . us as in S8, and not Drea. Although I’m sure they’d be thrilled to have her as collateral.”

“Transplant nurse?” Gunner asked. “How did you get her to the right hospital, Jem?”

“I called the pilot who was supposed to take her by helo . . .”

“Because you just happened to have his number,” Key added.

“Numbers are easy to get when you break into the hospital system,” Jem said.
