Chapter 9

The Merlin MK2 chopper flew across the Straight of Dover toward Calais. Nate, Eastwood, and Ghost sat in the back along with Skyscraper, Hollywood, and Doc. Thanks to Ambassador Rand, and cooperation between General Davidson, the French government, and the British Royal Navy, they were now closing the gap between them and al-Waleed. What they still didn’t know was where he was headed inside Paris. What they did know was what he was driving—a small white commercial truck with a faded sea bass painted on the side. An agent inside MI5 owed Tex a favor and that gentleman obtained the video feeds from the docks in Dover. As he sat in the queue waiting to drive onto the Ferry, al-Waleed had climbed out once to smoke a cigarette and then went around the back of the truck where he lifted the door a mere few inches peeking inside. It was suspicious behavior, but no one seemed to pay him any mind.

Nate was frustrated. He could not see into the truck, could not see Emma. The only consolation he had was that the terrorist was checking on her which meant she was still alive.

“We’ll get her back, Outlaw.” Doc patted Nate’s shoulder as they all watched the video footage from the link Tex had sent.

As they boarded the chopper, Tex messaged Nate. ‘I’ve got the vehicle on satellite. They just landed in Calais and drove off the ferry. I’ll keep you informed, but you’ll probably catch up to them yourselves in about an hour. I’m sending you a link to the satellite feed. Coordinates are on the screen. ~ Tex’

Now they were in French airspace about to fly over Calais. Nate’s eyes rarely left the screen of his phone. The orange pinging dot moving slowly towards Paris was his lifeline to Emma. It seemed strange that only five hours ago, she’d been in his bed, in his arms, panting his name. As sexy as she was, he’d been far more moved by the moments before and between the passionate highs. Emma was a revelation. She was complex. Shy one moment and then bold the next. Unsure, then confident, and then funny as she laughed at herself for being, in her own words, ‘such a dork.’ She didn’t talk about herself like a lot of people do. She asked personal questions and listened. And she could discuss global political issues like a seasoned pundit. The sexy librarian for sure. She’d made him smile, made him feel comfortable and yet excited as hell. Nate remembered dropping light kisses on her cheeks and her nose, and running his fingertip over the tiny indents from the glasses he still had not seen on her face, not until he’d viewed the hotel’s security camera footage. They made her look younger, smaller somehow, but also stronger.

He liked it. He liked her, and now, because of him and the work he did, a murderous terrorist had her, and the clock was ticking. It was Emma’s thirtieth birthday, and because of him, it might be her last.
