Zara’s fingers wrapped snugly around the grip of her handgun, and she pushed Maya ahead of her, out of the hospital room. It would be a cold day in hell before she ever allowed Maya to walk behind her.
Her thoughts flicked to Danyael. He probably wouldn’t even have considered the logic or danger of walking in front or behind, yet she could not shake the feeling that whenever she was grinding her teeth at his apparent naiveté, he was chuckling at her.
Zara paused at the stairway, but only for an instant, before heading down instead of up. She suppressed a snarl when she found Danyael on one of the lower floors, assisting the doctors with the triage and care of injured patients. “I told you to go up.”
Danyael shrugged. He did not go through the motions of an apology or explanation, and Zara immediately realized it wasn’t because he was deliberately trying to be offensive. He looked like hell—ashen and almost staggering on his crutch. The patient behind him pressed her hands to her face, as if trying to find the bleeding wounds that marred her mere moments earlier. Her skin, however, was smooth and flawless.
Zara scowled. Danyael had ignored her orders to run up instead of down, and then he had healed the people injured in the window-shattering, fragment-spraying passage of the helicopter as it raked the building all the way to the ground. Why had she expected any differently from him? Had he even considered the fact that he was still recovering from wounds that had nearly killed him?
Apparently he hadn’t. Zara ground her teeth; there was no one more infuriating than Danyael.
Then their eyes met, and the hard knot of anger in her stomach relaxed. Tension eased out of her shoulder muscles. She glowered at him. He was doing that magical thing with his empathic powers that made her almost forget how angry she was with him.
Why couldn’t she have fallen in love with someone less infuriating?
Probably because infuriating and compelling went hand-in-hand, and to her, there was no one more compelling than Danyael Sabre.
Like the way he always checked on her, keeping her not just alive but in perfect health—whatever the state of his own. He brushed his fingers against the smear of blood on Zara’s cheek to confirm it was not a cut, then turned his attention to Maya.
When Danyael touched Maya, the other woman flinched—not in pain, but in surprise. Her startled expression betrayed her. She had clearly not expected Danyael’s concern.
Zara rolled her eyes. Obviously, Maya did not know Danyael well enough. Three rounds of attempted assassination would not be enough to deter his natural compassion for his wannabe assassin.
Apparently satisfied that neither Zara nor Maya was hurt, Danyael refocused his attention on Zara. “Everything all right up there?”
“The IDF has it under control, for now. Someone’s head is going to roll. Israeli airspace is one of the most tightly controlled in the world. A rogue helicopter, even if it was going after
