West

The second she slid out of bed, my ears perked up. She thought she was slick, but she wasn’t as slick as she figured. It shocked me when she only went into the bathroom instead of slipping out into the hallway or something. But it was then that I realized that I didn’t make it back to my room.

So, I perched myself on my elbows and strained my ears to listen.

I couldn't hear much of what she was saying, but I knew she was on the phone with someone. And the second her voice mounted, I heard the panic-laced tears fill her voice. I silently slid out of bed and rummaged around for clothes. But when I realized that my clothes were in the bathroom she had locked herself in, I tugged the sheet off the bed and wrapped it around my waist.

Then, I sat on the edge of the bed facing the bathroom and waited.

I mean, where the hell was she going to go? She didn’t have anywhere to go without coming out of that bathroom first. There weren’t any windows she could climb out of. No duct work to crawl through that she’d fit in. I hated the way she sounded. I wanted to charge in there, take her into my arms, and tell her that everything was going to be okay.

Because I had a feeling that FBI agent had her on the phone.

“Fine, I’ll see you then,” she said curtly.

Yep, definitely the FBI agent.

And the second she cracked the bathroom door open, I cleared my throat. “Don’t panic, it’s okay. I knew you were on the phone with him.”

She didn’t open the door all the way. “West?”

“Were you expecting someone else?”

She didn’t open the door any further. “I’m sorry that I woke you up.”

“You didn’t. I was ready to get up. Now, you want to come out here and talk to me? Or am I going to have to follow you again when you bolt to go meet up with this guy?”

She allowed the door to slowly swing open as her reddened eyes came into view. “He knows who you are.”

I blinked. “Come again?”

She wiped at her mouth for some reason. “He knows who you are. He saw us arguing in the parking lot. He saw your leather cut.”

Shit. “What else did he say?”

I tried to stay as calm as possible. I kept myself seated so she didn’t feel so intimidated by my size. I patted the bed next to me, hoping she’d come sit down. But instead, she leaned against the doorframe and raked her hand through her hair.

“Is that… my shirt?” I asked.

She shrugged. “Sorry.”

My eyes slid down her body. “Don’t ever be sorry. It looks better on you than it ever did on me.”

She smiled softly at that. “Thanks.”

I shrugged. “No thanks needed for the truth.”

Her bloodshot eyes held mine. “So, I’m going to start talking and I don’t want you to interrupt. If you interrupt, I’ll lose my nerve.”

I nodded, but I didn’t speak.
