“Coming out here was a dumb move,” Jillian hissed. “This was not part of the plan. What about Meg?”

Blake narrowed his eyes. “Meg’s fine. She’s safe.”

“She was safe. They’re watching every move I make. I guarantee they saw me and my brainless greeting of you out there in the middle of the street.” She shook her head and shut her eyes as a tremor rippled through her. How could she have been so thoughtless? So careless? Why hadn’t she stayed in the car and pretended she didn’t know the man?

Hindsight was twenty-twenty, as they say.

Only now, she had to consider that whoever was after her could find out who Blake was, where he lived, and everything else.

Including Meg’s location.

Then again, she could be worried for nothing. If no one had been watching . . .

But she couldn’t hinge her hopes on that. They’d already managed to find Julie Carson, an alias she’d adopted as soon as she’d crossed the California border. She still didn’t know what tipped them off.

“Everything okay?”

Jillian whirled to see Colton standing too close for her comfort. She moved aside to get control of her heart rate. Part of it had to do with Colton’s nearness. The other part, the majority of it, had to do with the fact that one of her best friends could have put her daughter in danger. She forced a smile. “It’s been a rough couple of days, Colton. It’s scary how this person after me seems to know my every move and doesn’t care who gets in his way when he’s coming after me.” She shrugged. “Other than that, I’m good.” Colton frowned at her and she grimaced. No need to take her bad mood out on the man who was doing his best to help her. “Sorry.”

His expression softened. “It’s all right. I’m a little snappy myself today.” He looked at Blake and his eyes cooled. “How long are you here for?”

Blake lifted a brow. “For as long as Jillian needs me.”

Colton grunted and turned to Hunter, who had his phone pressed to his ear. When Hunter waved Colton over to share in the conversation, Jillian grabbed Blake’s forearm. “You have to move Meg. If she’s at the farm, it’s not safe. You can be tracked to it.”

His brow furrowed, eyes narrowed, Blake said, “You didn’t tell me everything, did you?”

Jillian didn’t break eye contact with him. She kept her voice even. “No. I didn’t.”

Blake ran a hand down his face and paced to the window, then back. “You said you saw a murder and that person was after you and you had to get out of town to keep you and Meg safe. You never mentioned how powerful these people were.”

“I know,” she whispered with a glance at Hunter and Colton.

“You really think they’d go all the way to California to get her just to use her against you?”

“With everything in me, I believe it.” She raked back some loose hair and tears filled her eyes. She blinked them back.
