Chapter 12

Brody delivered as he’d promised. He’d left Tara exhausted. Her muscles ached from the hours of sweat-inducing, body-rocking, orgasm-producing hot sex. She’d fallen asleep in his arms, but the reprieve had been short-lived. She glanced at the bedside clock. It read four in the morning. She let out a sigh. She had less than twenty-four hours to fix everything that had broken in the nine months she’d been gone waiting on Black to attack.

As much as she enjoyed snuggling with Brody, she knew it wouldn’t last. She just never thought that she’d be the one to up and leave after it was over. She slid from beneath his arm and moved throughout the room, grabbing everything she needed to shower, change, and start a day of trying to deal with her problems before she actually needed his help. She pulled the bedroom door closed behind her and breathed a sigh of relief that the noise didn’t wake him.

An hour later, after showering in the spare bathroom and leaving a note next to the coffee pot, she was pulling into the restaurant. It was too early for anyone to be there, so there would be fewer distractions to getting some things handled and done before the staff came in and started asking questions for which she wouldn’t have answers.

She started digging through the paperwork in the drawers of her desk and in the binders on the shelf and really immersed herself back into the business of running her business. Two hours later she glanced up at the clock. She heard the steel door off the kitchen close. Prep staff must be early. She braced herself for the barrage of questions but kept her nose down into the ledger she’d been going through. She heard the door to her office creak open behind her, and she started to turn in her chair. Her finger went to a spot in the journal so she wouldn’t lose her place.

“Bitch.” The deep male voice startled her as she spun in her seat. She never made it all the way around before she felt the blow to the back of her head. She was knocked out of the chair, landing on the floor behind her desk. She blinked, and her vision blurred, barely making out the outline of black combat boots as they came to stand in front of her. She blinked again one last time before the black void sucked her under its embrace.

The back of her head throbbed as her mind started to wake up, even though she didn’t open her eyes. Unsure whether she was still in danger or if the deranged lunatic was gone, she lay quietly, trying to take in her surroundings. She ran her fingers deeper into the plush carpet she was lying on and almost breathed a sigh of relief. She was still in her office. She could work with that, even if the creep was still around. She slid her eyes open, and a burst of black and white dots flashed in her vision.
