Chapter 19

God help him, he was going to lose his mind if she kept talking to him in that damn sexy voice of hers. His mind refused to think straight, and he didn't need her constantly invading his thoughts any more than she already had. He couldn't control his raging hormones, let alone keep his pants on.

After the elevator incident, he knew they were in some deep shit. Add that to the slight complication that he'd been ID'd and they were in some seriously deep shit.

He'd been ID'd, and by a man who was supposed to be dead. He needed to think, to sort things out. Weber wanted them to meet up at the address he gave him, saying even the corridors within NASSD weren't safe.

Sure as hell sounded like a mole to him. But then again, Surreal didn't need any help breaking into computer systems all across the globe. Maybe Weber thought Surreal had tapped into NASSD's security monitors? They carried both audio and visual, which would give him, yet again, the upper hand.

If he had tapped into NASSD, then he already knew David had come back. Hell, he knew Charis would be working with him to track the crazy son-of-a-bitch. He knew Weber had assigned him as point on the op to bring him in. They'd blown the only thing they had going for them-the element of surprise.

No wonder Weber wanted the RV off site. Surreal had the know-how to hack into any system. No doubt the meeting would be somewhere outside of the known system.

He shoved his free hand deep into his coat pocket, confirming the location of the note and to stop him from reaching out to touch her, kiss her soundly, if for no other reason than to shut her up.

What was that noise? He didn't remember NASSD piping music through the corridors. He tuned in behind him. It didn't surprise him to realize the noises were coming from Charis.

"I asked you to be quiet."

"No, you asked me to stop talking."

"You're humming."

"That isn't talking," she pointed out. He stopped his deliberate march down the long corridor and turned back to her. Damn it. She smiled up at him in a poor attempt at innocence. "I'm not even saying any of the words."

He couldn't win no matter what he did, so he spun back around and continued his task of getting the hell out of the building without going ape shit.

She caught up to him, and damn if she hadn't started humming again. "What song is that anyway?"

"Past the Point of No Return. It's from Phantom of the Opera. Ever heard of it?"

"I've been in Maui, Charis. Not a cave."

Christ. What was he doing? She didn't do anything wrong. So she had a way of getting under his skin? So what? He didn't need to be such an ass.

Damn it. He told himself not to touch her. Hell, he ordered himself to not even look at her. For the most part, he'd succeeded. But then he had her alone in that elevator.
