Angie took a sip of her Sprite and flipped to the next page of the intel she had briefed Katie on earlier. She had skimmed through it, but she wanted to make sure she hadn’t missed anything.

Katie needed her to be on standby, so she didn’t plan on leaving the condo until after the job was done. The last thing she needed was to be caught out in the middle of a coffee shop if Katie needed her help to take down a bad guy.

She looked up at an unexpected knock on the front door. She frowned and walked over to press her eye to the peephole. When she saw who was standing there, she stepped back and her hand flew to her mouth to stifle the gasp that escaped. Her other hand went to her stomach to stem the rising nausea. It couldn’t be him, could it?

She peered through the peephole again, and sure as shit, her ex was pacing outside the door, grubby t-shirt and all. Katie’s lesson still darkened his face, the bruises thrown into relief each time he passed under the spotlight over the door. He looked so out of place in the hallway, like a visitor from another world.

“I want to know how he got in,” Angie told him.

“We’ll get to the bottom of it, ma’am. Just stay in the apartment until the guards have dealt with the intruder, please.”

“You better hurry, then,” she replied.

She hung up the phone when the knocking started again. “Angie,” her ex yelled from the hallway. “I know you’re in there. I can hear you. Open the fucking door.”

Angie clenched her fists. How dare he come here? Her fear was gone, replaced by a cold anger that spread through her, washing away all the little cuts he’d made to her psyche. She was strong, she was smart and capable, and she was valued—something he’d never made her feel. She was building a new life, one where his controlling bullshit had no place.

Her mouth twitched. His presence in her haven was unacceptable.
