Chapter Seven
Shannon ran, feet pounding, after the perp who had decided it would be more fun to have her chase him, as opposed to doing the nice thing and stopping when she’d arrived on the scene. The other two had been cuffed and were by another squad car. But this wiry little bastard had opted to run.
He was fast, she’d give him that, but she’d be damned if she let him get away from her. Adding a bit more speed, she cursed her utility belt—always great to have, right up until she had to chase someone.
They hauled ass into an empty lot and she turned on even more speed, catching him and taking him down hard. She bit back her muttered curse as pain lanced through her right side.
“I told you not to run,” she snapped off as she cuffed the man.
“I didn’t do anything wrong,” he cried.
“Of course not. What was I thinking? It must have been a different young man in his early twenties wearing cargo pants and a black Metallica shirt with a beanie on his head who robbed the store.”
“Exactly. I was framed!”
Rolling her eyes, she climbed off him then jerked him up. “Tell it to the attorney I am going to advise you to get.” As they walked, she recited his rights to him.
Mario and two other officers were back by her squad car where they’d all parked. Hers however, had the driver’s door still open.
“Nice collar.” Mario opened the back door of her cruiser for her. “We found the gun he dropped.”
“Good.” She guided the still muttering man into the backseat. “Sit and don’t move.”
The moment he was there, she slammed the door, content he’d be fine since the window was partially down. She moved and winced.
“You okay?”
Do I really want Mario to know I’m hurt? Not really, no. But the gasp that came from one of the others couldn’t be ignored.
“Hell, Conner, you’re bleeding.”
Shit. She’d been afraid of that. “I’m fine.”
“No, you need to get that looked at.”
Over the radio, she heard them call for a medic. Dipping her head, she sighed heavily at the dark stain that spread out on the side her uniform shirt. There was a big tear in the middle of the new color.
“I’ll take him back to the station for you while you get that cleaned up,” Mario said.
She nodded, feeling grateful he wasn’t being an ass at the moment. It didn’t take long for the man to be moved from one car to the next. She kept her distance, what with her bleeding and all, there was no sense in taking unneeded risk.
She turned to view the ambulance pulling into the parking lot. The crowd, which had begun to gather earlier, had slowly faded bit by bit. Doors slammed and she caught sight of a tall man with bronze skin, chiseled features, black wavy hair and a firm body.
I know him. He was the one who partnered with the youngest sister of Dimitri Wright. Sure enough, she appeared as well, snapping on some gloves.
