Chapter 7

“What is it?” Kinsley’s heart pounded her rib cage for a couple of reasons. Both were obvious. She’d just made a huge mistake in kissing Gabriel and now they were in danger. But, damn, that kiss. She’d been missing that kind of passion her entire adult life. Their kisses as teens hinted at the kind of chemistry that could ignite a blazing inferno as adults.

“There’s been a breech.” Gabriel cursed again.

“Of what?” She glanced around wildly.

“They don’t know.” He returned a text.

“What should we do?” The first thing she thought about was putting clothes on. She darted toward the adjacent bedroom and flew out of her robe.

It was dark and she didn’t turn on the light. She heard a click-sound from the other room and realized it was a bullet being engaged in a chamber. If that didn’t jump her heartrate up a couple of notches, she didn’t know what would.

She fumbled around for her clothes in the dark space. The only light streamed in from the opened door leading to the living room.

“We need to go.” His voice was a study in calm whereas her body was made of elastic bands.

Kinsley threw on her pants and a shirt not bothering to dig around for her underwear and her blouse. She bolted toward the sound of his voice and her heart thudded when she saw him in the door frame. Very little light escaped around his large frame. Basically, he blocked out all the light.

She gasped. “Jesus, you scared me.”

“Ready?” He was all business. There was no hint of the passion from a few minutes ago.

He threaded their fingers together and led her into the kitchen.

“There’s only one door,” she mostly said to herself.

“That’s why we’ll use the back window,” he answered.

“Can you fit?”

“I’ll make it work.” He said it like it was nothing and her mind snapped to all the crazy and seemingly impossible situations he must’ve faced overseas. He was in his element—a world that was so completely foreign to her.

“Wait. My bag.” She didn’t want to leave anything behind.

Instead of rushing her, he walked to the kitchen table where she’d left it.

“Got it.” She slung the strap over her arm. “Should we take any of the papers?”

“I already disposed of them.”

In another few seconds, he was helping her onto the kitchen counter and toward the window over the sink.

Kinsley climbed through the opening and dropped onto the hard ground onto all fours. Gabriel was on her heels but he somehow landed on his feet. He was crouched low and urging her forward the second she regained her balance.

Staying low, they hustled toward the back garden. There was enough light that she feared someone could easily see them.

Quietly and stealthily they moved toward the darkness. The property was massive and there were more trees than she could count. She and Gabriel stuck to the edge of a path but she had a feeling that was about to change. And she had completely forgotten to slip on shoes, which was fine on the manicured lawns but she had a feeling they wouldn’t be on that forever.
