PART THREE

CHAPTER TEN

He looked yummy in uniform.

What a stupid thing to think about at this moment.

Kit couldn’t help it. He looked so damn good—all big and tough, dirty and savage. That glint in his eyes that always made her imagine doing naughty things to his body. He was larger than live and she wanted to kiss him so badly.

She looked away, trying to gather her wayward thoughts. They had just witnessed a miracle. She shouldn’t tempt fate twice and get distracted by her hormones. Hopefully, there would be time to do all that later. But right now, they had a problem.

“This thing is dead,” she said, as they circled the damaged van. “I don’t have my cell phone any more. You?”

“Nope. But what I want to know is, how come you’re here? I thought you were back home.”

She still couldn’t believe they had been texting each other in the same country. He must have some sort of secret program that gave a default location because whenever she tried to find out where he was texting from, it always gave the location as Langley. Yeah, right. She had so believed that. But still, she hadn’t suspected he would be so close.

“I told you I was at work,” she told him.

“As a public info officer, starting a new project.”

“Yeah, well, this is the new project. I’m with a team interviewing female victims of the tribal warfare in this area.” She stopped pacing and turned to look up the road. “We have to find a way to go after Minah. She’s only thirteen and is being forced to marry some stupid warlord. Those men are from her tribe. The one who pulled her away from my arms was her brother. She told me when she caught sight of him.”

It had been scary inside the smoke-filled building. She had been a lot more frightened in there than just now, in the truck. The smoke and ensuing panic were disorienting and it didn’t help she was unfamiliar with her surroundings. And then Minah’s relatives had shown up and went for them—well, Minah, really, but she wasn’t going to give her up without a fight. That was a losing battle, though, with her holding on to a mere child while fighting off two big thugs. Joanna helped by smashing one of the guys on the head with a picture from the wall but Hamidah and Minah were just too frightened to do anything.

“I see. My commander’s wife was going to meet with her to help her.”

Kit turned back in surprise. “What?” Minah never mentioned that. “Nobody said anything. I was under the impression she didn’t have anyone to turn to.”

What was a bunch of SEALs doing here picking up a young village kid, anyway? Minah mentioned a skirmish of some sort that had allowed her to escape. Were Lucas and his team involved?

“Don’t know. We were heading to the comptroller’s office when we smelled the fire and then heard all the commotion. Come on, let’s get off the main road.
