"Here goes." I grabbed the arrow. I'd have to break off the feathered end and then push the arrow through her arm.
"Quit thinking about it and just do it." Diana had tears running down her cheeks again.
"And tell Flo to pick up my new shoes."
Shoes? To hell with shoes. I had to do this quick. I sucked in a breath and snapped off the feathered end. One sharp tug and I had two pieces of really bloody olive wood arrow to dispose of. I thought I was going to be sick.
"You're not going to be sick, Glory. You did fine. And keep the arrow. Put it in one of the shopping bags." Diana wrapped my sweater back around her arm. "We might want to study it later."
"Good thinking." I couldn't quit shaking. Diana had pulled herself together and was now fairly calm. "We've got to get you home."
Flo walked up to us lugging all of our shopping bags. "I've taken care of our witnesses."
She looked at Diana. "Wow, you already took out the arrow?"
"Glory did it." Diana leaned against the car. "Valdez saved us. I moved when he jumped at Glory. If I hadn't…" She swayed and I reached around her to open the car door.
"Get inside." I looked around the dark parking lot. The mall was closing. Flo stuffed our packages in the backseat.
"Valdez, you're our hero."
" Just doing my job." Valdez looked at me. " You okay?"
"Sure I'm fine. It's Diana we should worry about." I helped her into the front seat. "Flo, watch and make sure we're not being followed."
"Will do, Glory." Flo reached over the seat to pat Diana's shoulder. "Let me touch your wound, Diana. I think I can heal it."
"Really? You think? You're not sure?"
"Not one hundred percent."
Diana winced when another car leaving the lot passed us, flooding the interior of our car with light. She held her arm and shook her head. "Then wait until we get home. I just want to get out of here."
"Good idea." More and more cars were pulling out of the parking lot. If Westwood was still around, he might try to take another shot.
"Yeah, get us out of here. But I think Westwood's gone." Valdez looked around. "I've got his scent now. He's not getting near us without warning again."
I pulled out of the parking lot. The arrow was in a bag on the floorboard under Diana's seat. It gave me the creeps. So did the near miss we'd just had. A few inches to the left and Diana would be dead, a new trophy for Westwood's necklace.
"He missed worse than that."
"What do you mean, Valdez?" I was glad we lived so close to the mall. A few more minutes and we'd be home, safely locked in.
"I mean, he wasn't aiming at Diana, Blondie. He was aiming at you." Valdez put his head over the seat and nudged my cheek. "He didn't know Diana was vamp. He's got your picture, remember? It was dark.
