THUMPER

“Thank God,” I groaned when we pulled down Jones’s driveway. I laughed when I saw IRIS step out from behind a bush and Slider walk out the front door. God, I missed them.

When Dash stopped, I practically shoved FNG out of his seat so I could climb out. I ran out to meet IRIS and Slider, pulling them in for a huge hug.

“You guys have no idea how happy I am to see you.”

“I guess so. We don’t normally get such a warm reception,” IRIS said.

“You have no idea what I’ve been through.”

Slider watched over my shoulder with interest as Bree got out. I turned and watched as Dash held her hand as she practically fell to the ground. “So, that’s the woman.”

I snorted. “Just wait until you meet her.”

She rushed forward, pushing past us on her way to the house. “I have to pee!”

“I wouldn’t just run inside!” FNG shouted. “Jones doesn’t like guests!”

I heard the door slam open and Bree’s squeal, but when no gunshots were fired, I assumed everything was okay.

“Not that I don’t want to stand around and catch up, but I’m beat,” Dash said with a yawn.

I slapped him on the shoulder in thanks. “Go to sleep. We’ll wake you up if we hear anything. You too, New Guy.”

“Do you think Jones has anything for this gunshot wound? I think it’s getting infected.”

“You don’t say,” I snapped as I remembered my own wound that I got courtesy of him.

Upon the reminder, he winced and walked away, heading to the house.

“It sounds like you’ve had a fun vacation,” Slider grinned.

“You have no fucking clue. I can’t believe Cash sent them after me.”

“And the woman?”

I rolled my eyes, pressing the heels of my hands into them. “She’s…a complete fucking pain in the ass. I don’t even know why she came out here. You should have seen the pack she was carrying to hike. It was ridiculous. I fucking told her to go home the first time I saw her. And then she was bitching about her yurt and the lack of a bathroom inside. And when the sheep attacked us, she thought she would just stroll into my yurt and take over, like I didn’t need my own fucking place to sleep! And don’t get me started on how much she flipped out when we had to go on the run. I mean, I expected her to be scared, but she was fucking hysterical, crying and yelling about everything. None of us wanted to be with her! At one point, I kissed her just so she wouldn’t flip out!” I laughed.

IRIS and Slider stared at me with knowing smirks on their faces.

“What?”

“Yeah, it sounds like you really hate her,” IRIS laughed.

“Are you fucking kidding me? I’ll be happy when this is over and we can drop her in New York.”

“Will you?” Slider asked.

“Of course! She’s not made for this shit. She’s most definitely not Eva or Zoe.”

“Which is what you wanted.”

I shook my head at IRIS, not understanding.
