Blood splatters across my face, seconds before Winston shoves my chair sideways. Bouncing slightly as I land on my shoulder. I turn onto my back as my breath is knocked from my lungs. I know I need to keep moving if someone is going to take potshots at us. Even though I canât take a full breath, I roll to my side and push myself onto my feet. Staying low, I rush toward Dean while pulling my beretta from my waist.
âAre you okay?â I ask. Running my fingers through his hair to check for blood. My hands come away dry so I know he wasnât hit. Before he can respond, the door in the hallway opens and I take aim.
âWooh, wooh. Donât shoot.â Presley, the leader of Delta team, has his hands raised, one holding his Ruger while the other two half asleep members stand behind him. I lower my gun as I turn to check on the rest of Delta and my guys.
âIs everyone okay?â Liamâs powerful voice echoes around the room. He leans over to help Clarissa up from the floor. Apparently he had pushed her over just as Winston had done to me. She is rubbing her shoulder but looks none the worse for wear. Everyone answers Liam with grunts and yeahs. âWell then, why the fuck are you still in here? Go chase the fucker down.â
Dean gives my hand a squeeze before he jumps up and follows after Delta team. I head toward the door to help when a hand shoots out and stops me. âNot you little firecracker. I know you want to help but we need to update the rest of Alpha. If they hear about this from anyone else, theyâll have my head.â Clarissaâs face is daring me to argue, so with a nod I pull out my phone.
Kane picks up after the first ring. âWhat happened?â
âWeâre okay. Karen was shot from a sniper across the street. Can you check the registration of the Hilton?â I hear his fingers fly across the keyboard, before the sound becomes muffled.
âYou promise everyone is safe? You arenât injured in any way?â Grahamâs voice echoes across the line. I canât help the infectious smile from gracing my lips.
âI promise weâre safe. The only one injured is Karen. We were picking her brains a few minutes before they splattered across my face.â I say.
âDamn, Pretty Girl, that was dark.â he says with a deep chuckle.
âI promise, we are all okay. Delta team, Cayden, and Dean are tracking the shooter. Weâll know more soon. I just wanted to check in. I love you guys. Stay safe.â
âWe love you too. You stay safe. I donât know what I would do if something happened to you.â With that he passes the phone back to Kane.
âHey, I found two suspicious names on the Hilton register. One is a Lionel Bishop, and the other is registered as J. Doe. Both paid cash. No one uses cash anymore.â
âJ. Doe, how unoriginal. What rooms are they registered in?â
âLionel is registered to the presidentâs suite while J.
