Chapter Eleven

1900 hours, Thursday

Caracas, Venezuela

Mara sat beside Logan in the terminal outside gate six, elbow on chair arm, head in her palm, and tapping her foot for as long as she could stand it.

She watched him, her eyes narrowed to slits and cut to the side—though she could have been a thousand miles away by the attention he'd shown her since his return the previous evening.

After his little chat with MacKall in the alley, the men had come back inside and acted as though they hadn't just punched one another. MacKall had taken a flight early this morning, after contacting Butler, leaving them to clear his apartment.

One concession, she had found the man with his little vendor’s cart.

Logan scanned the area, turning his head to look between her shoulder and the chair-back. A slight discoloration and swelling at the bottom corner of his mouth hinted at what Connar had given him in return.

Why do men have to act so barbaric sometimes? she mused. Really, the idea of her and MacKall was completely laughable. That was not to say she didn’t find the other man attractive, but he was more like a brother than anything.

Mara sighed and groaned, stretching forward and gaining an exasperated look from Logan.

"I'm going to the restroom," she said on a yawn.

That got his attention, and Logan sat forward to block her.

She didn't like the idea of wandering off on her own any more than he did, but there was no way he was accompanying her into the restroom, or even waiting outside the door like she was a child.

They had been here for hours with no sign of anyone sneaking up on them.

"Shoo," she said, waving him away as she started from her seat.

He grabbed her arm. "You can't wait thirty more minutes and go on the plane?"

Mara balanced on the edge of the hard plastic airport chair—having a flashback of their time in Paris almost two days ago—and pursed her lips at him, shaking her head. "Nope." She didn't need to go. She just needed to be away from him, to stretch her legs and feel normal for a moment.

Logan sighed and glanced to the restroom across the large, busy hallway. "There and straight back. If you are gone more than five minutes, I'm coming in after you."

Mara groaned at him. "Whatever," she said and rolled her eyes, pushing the rest of the way from the seat.

She looked around as she crossed the hall, dodging between people and nearly stepping on a man squatting in the floor by an outlet charging his iPhone.

"Sorry," Mara called over her shoulder as she pushed the door open.

She scrunched her nose at the smell of urine and cheep gel air freshener as she walked in and looked around. Mara glanced under the stalls for feet as the door banged closed behind her, and when she was satisfied no one was there but her, she went to the counter and lifted the long strap of her purse over her head.
