Chapter Nine

Alastair walked out the front door of the chalet and dove sideways as a

bullet ripped the wood of the doorframe, mere inches from his head. He landed in a

pile of snow and grunted as his shoulder hit a hidden rock.

He looked up just in time to see Basilyr emerge from the house with his

hands stretched out in front of his body. The man yelled something in Arabic and

several dark skinned men in black snowsuits moved out from behind a black

hummer that hadn‟t been there a few moments earlier when they‟d scoped out the

exterior of the house.

A rapid fire discussion in Arabic followed, during which Dolfe emerged from

the house, standing directly behind Basilyr with his gun held down at his side.

Just in case.

“What‟s going on, Basilyr?” Dolfe‟s voice was husky with suspicion. His

green gaze swept the horizon, obviously looking for more guys with guns. “Who

are these guys?”

Basilyr dropped his hands and turned his head. “They are Prince Abdel‟s

men. They‟ve returned for me. They thought you were from the attacking force.”

His dark gaze slid to „Stair, still lying on his back in the snow. “I apologize.”

„Stair climbed to his feet, throwing a glare toward the prince‟s men. “They

almost killed me. We don‟t shoot first and ask questions later in this country,

Basilyr.”

“Many problems might be solved if you did.” Basilyr‟s craggy face changed as

he smiled.

Dolfe chuckled. “Can‟t argue with you there, Basil.”

The bodyguard frowned at the shortened version of his name but said

nothing. He turned as one of the new arrivals approached, a long, black gun that

looked suspiciously like a sawed off shotgun held down at his side. His finger was

on the trigger.

The man started to talk in Arabic but Basilyr shook his head. “English,

Fayad.” He jerked his head toward the two Honeybuns.

The man fixed them with a hostile gaze but nodded. “The prince sent us to

retrieve you. We must hurry back. He is virtually unprotected.”

Basilyr nodded. “These men are the woman‟s family. They wish to take

charge of her.”
