Chapter 7

Parker’s stomach was in knots as they entered the Hilton Paris hotel. Though she knew Davis specifically picked that hotel to play some mind games with her, she had to find a way to somehow block it out. She couldn’t let him win. They checked into their rooms on the fifth floor, Parker and Turner in one room, with Cole across the hall. They didn’t even take time to unpack as they hoped they wouldn’t be there long enough. Cole went into Parker’s room as they came up with how to approach Davis’ room.

“What room’s he in?” Parker asked.

“Third floor,” Cole responded. “What’s the plan?”

“We need to try to limit his exit strategy. His room’s in the middle of the floor. There’s nowhere for him to go. You take the elevator, I’ll take the stairs.”

“Why do I get the elevator?”

“Is there a problem?”

“You know how I feel about elevators,” he remarked.

“Fine. I’ll take the elevator and you take the stairs. Happy?”

“Yeah.”

“What about me? What do I do?” Turner wondered.

“Nothing,” Parker replied.

“What? I have to do something.”

“You can,” Cole told him. “You can stay here.”

“Oh, c’mon.”

“Ryan. If he’s there, he’s not gonna go down without a fight,” Parker said. “We can’t risk you getting caught in the middle of something. Just wait here until we get back.”

“Fine,” Turner sighed.

Parker and Cole checked their weapons and made sure they were fully loaded. They each took two guns with them. Their main gun they each tucked in the back of their pants, while the second weapon they attached to their ankle. They figured if Davis was there they were going to need all the ammunition they had. Parker gave Turner a kiss just before the two agents left. Parker and Cole quickly went to their respective spots, Cole rushing down the stairs as Parker took the elevator.

Turner went over to the TV and turned it on to try and take his mind off what was happening a couple floors below him. Just as he sat down on the bed the phone rang. He thought it was a little strange since they just got there. He wasn’t sure if he should answer it, though he eventually decided he should in case it was something important. He slowly picked up the phone as if he was afraid of who was on the other end.

“Hello?” he answered.

“Hi, Mr. Turner?” a woman greeted him.

“Yeah.”

“My name is Aveline. I’m with the hotel.”

“What can I do for you?”

“The hotel security staff is currently holding two Americans that you checked in with. They were caught with guns on the third floor of the hotel. They claim they’re U.S. government officials and we would like you to come down and corroborate their story.”

“Oh gosh. Yeah, yeah, it’s true,” he told her.

“I’m glad to hear it but we need you to come down to verify. That way you can see their faces and make the verification.”

“Oh. Yeah, sure, I’ll be right down. Where do I go?”

“Just go to the main desk and someone will be with you,” she said.
