CHAPTER FOURTEEN
*Augusta*
THE FIGHT INSIDE WAS LOUD and death defying. Cade was like some kind of fiend in there. I truly felt sorry for the guy with the Mohawk. He wasn’t going to get out of there unscathed.
I ran out of the entrance and stood by the archway. There was a column to the side. Furtively, I dashed over to it and hid behind it. I had my back pressed against the rough pebbles of the pole when I realized I was imitating some spy in a bad seventies movie. I straightened up from it but kept it as my cover.
Straining, I listened to what Diana said to her short-haired bodyguard.
“We have to get out of here. Xavier is not supposed to kill Cade, he knows that right?” Diana asked.
I could hear the frown inside the bodyguard’s voice. “Don’t worry about Xavier killing Cade at this point, Diana. Did you see the crazy look that went across Cade’s face when I threatened his woman? Are you certain that was a good idea to do? I told you, Cade’s from a time and place when evil things happened to men who overstepped their bounds.”
“I’m aware Cade used to be a warrior. He's civilized now. I wouldn’t have let either of you hurt Augusta. But Cade doesn’t need to know that,” she said.
“Anyway, after tonight, I no longer work for you. I doubt Gabriel in there is going to want to, either. You don't go messing with a guy like Cade.”
There was an edge to Diana’s tone when she answered Xavier. “Are you scared? You're both nearly as old as he is. That's why I hired you two. There's more money in it for you both if you stay with me.”
His voice was flat. “What’s money, when you’re dead-dead and unable to spend it?”
I heard the desperation in Diana. She really seemed to want to keep Xavier near her. Was it because she was afraid of Cade? Or was she afraid of someone else? I doubted I struck that kind of worry in her. What had her so willing to go this far to get us off her tracks if she was innocent?
It looked suspicious to me.
I heard the sound of car doors slamming and realized that they must have gotten into a vehicle and were probably headed to another location. For a moment, I chewed my lip, remembering that Cade had said he didn't want me to do anything rash, and he’d bade me not to put myself in the way of harm.
Also, he'd said he wanted me to go to his vehicle. I approached his truck. He’d given me the keys when he’d tried to make me leave the first time.
I wondered if I should follow them. Their scent was still in the air, and I would have no problem tracking them down. However, I wasn't certain if it was such a good idea to blatantly misconstrue Cade's meaning about going to his vehicle. I was aware that he just wanted me to sit in it.
