CHAPTER 9
The road noise as they traveled the war-torn streets should have given Lucky and Grace some privacy. Except there was a fifty-fifty chance theyâd bugged the van. Heâd have done it if it was him.
Same as the day before, all Lucky could ascertain was the direction traveled and the duration. Neither was helpful. For all he knew, theyâd left Marikistan and were in Lithuania. At least his team could track Grace. He just wished heâd been able to convince Rimkus to put a tracker on Hope. Then, even if this op went tits up, theyâd have been able to locate the baby and get her out.
Years of working with a team left Lucky feeling out at sea. Grace was holding up better than expected, but if she didnât see Hope soon, sheâd probably start losing it. Not that he blamed her.
Lucky hated being fucking helpless. He itched to pull out a KA-BAR knife from a sheath on his leg. Heâd take out Natasha before he knew what happened. Then heâd force Boris to take him to see Hope. But the knife and the sheath were home, along with his other weapons. Without a weapon, he couldnât control the situation or protect Grace. It left him with no choice but to play the waiting game.
Grace shivered.
âCold, baby?â
She nodded.
Lucky pulled her against his side and wrapped his arm around her shoulders. Satisfaction eased some of his anger when she laid her against his shoulder.
âI donât like Boris and Natasha. Just thought Iâd let you know.â
Lucky rubbed his chin over her hair and smiled. âI agree. We should kill them as soon as possible.â
Her gasp made him smile wider. They should be more careful, but it was so loud they were probably safe.
âYouâre not serious?â Grace asked.
âMaybe? No, of course not. We donât know where Hope is yet.â
She nodded and rubbed her cheek against his neck. The more time he spent with the woman, the more he realized how much heâd misjudged her. Sure, she took what she wanted, but he was the same way. Just because she was a woman didnât mean she couldnât be a horndog. But sheâd listened to him last night. It had been an incredible turn-on, knowing sheâd probably never submitted to any man. Not that he wanted a submissive, but he needed control in the bedroom.
She sighed. âI thought this would be easy. Fly to Marikistan. Go to pick up Hope, pay the money, and fly home. Two days tops. Fuck, was I wrong.â
âI expected the same, although maybe not a two-day time frame. I figured theyâd have to make sure we were who we said. But that should have been clear by now.â Lucky squeezed her shoulder. âWhatever it takes to get Hope, weâll do it. Just think of the stories youâll be able to tell her when sheâs older.â
âTrue. I hadnât thought of that. At least sheâll know how much she means to us.â
Grace kept saying âusâ when talking about the baby, but was
