Chapter Nine

Clarke

This was a really bad idea, but there was no power on earth strong enough to keep me from inhaling Lyn's heady scent or rubbing up against him.

"It's been forever, Lyn."

I'd been cold for weeks.

I pressed my nose to the soft skin right behind Lyn's ear and inhaled again. God, he smelled so good. I gripped Lyn's hips to keep him exactly where I wanted him. Pressed up against me.

"I missed you."

Lyn stiffened in my arms and I knew that was the wrong thing to say, but it was the truth. The last six weeks had been hell. At least when he was part of the team, I could keep an eye on him, see him every day.

"Not knowing where you are or who you're with is killing me, Lyn."

I had no idea why I was speaking the words swirling around in my head. I should just keep my big fat mouth shut and do my job. Keep Lyn safe. Telling the man of my misery was not going to end well for either of us.

"You need to come back to the team."

"No," Lyn said as he gave me a shove.

I snickered when the force of his push didn't even make me take a step back. There was nothing in this universe that could keep me from Lyn if that's where I wanted to be, not even Lyn.

"Clarke—"

"Sshhh!" I turned my head when I heard a vehicle stop down the street then the sounds of doors opening and closing. I quickly glanced around until I spotted the large industrial dumpster.

Lyn was going to hate me.

"Come on," I whispered as I pulled him toward the large green container. I flipped back the lid then turned.

Lyn instantly took a step back and started shaking his head. "I'm not going in there."

"Oh, yes, you are." I grabbed Lyn and swung him up in my arms. Before he could cry out in protest, I tossed him in the dumpster and pulled the lid back down. A moment later, I was leaning against the brick wall, staring down at my phone.

I lowered my arm and pushed away from the wall when three men walked around the corner. I placed my hand on the butt of the gun in the holster at my hip. Any cop worth his salt would know I was armed.

"Can I help you, gentlemen?" I asked loudly, praying Lyn wouldn't make a sound.

All three stopped and stared at me.

I lifted an eyebrow. "I believe I asked you a question."

"You on the job?" one of them asked.

I narrowed my eyes. "Who wants to know?"

The guy flashed his badge. "Detective Franklin out of the Thirty-Fourth Street precinct." He nodded his head to the other two men. "These are Detectives Bradley and Johnson."

I let my shoulders sag as if in relief, giving the look of no longer being on-guard, except I was. I was watching every move they made. "Sergeant Clarke, SWAT."

"What is SWAT doing in this neighborhood?"

"I'm supposed to be meeting my CI." I glanced down at my cell phone.
