FALCON
Savannah jerks against me in the hot tub, opening her eyes, the water
swishing around us.
“You okay, Vannah?”
“Yeah. I’m fine. I thought I heard something.”
“Probably just the dogs playing.”
“Right. It’s not like I could hear anything over the whirring of the jets
anyway.”
She snuggles back into my shoulder and I hold her against me, loving
the touch of her flesh on mine, until—
She shoots her eyes open when Sydney barks.
“She’s barking, Falcon.”
“They’re just playing.”
“Right…”
But it’s not a playful bark. It’s—
I jerk away from her, standing.
You learn to sense things on the inside. You can be alone, your eyes
closed, yet you know when someone is near. Someone who means you
harm. It’s a sixth sense, and you can’t make it in prison without it.
And now? I feel it in my fucking bones—that ache in your marrow that
helped our cavemen ancestors survive in the wilderness.
Someone’s here for me. My guns are inside the house in a safe. I’m not
supposed to have firearms as a parolee, but that doesn’t matter in this
moment. How the fuck do I get there, though?
How the fuck do I protect Savannah?
I glance to the only part of the pool house that has a lock—the changing
room. She’ll be safe there, for now at least.
“Savannah,” I say as quietly as I can over the hot tub. “See that door by
the bar? It goes to the changing room. You go over there, slowly, close the
door, and lock it.”
“What?” she gasps.
“Do as I say.”
“Falcon!”
“Damn it, Savannah. Do it now.”
She trembles as she steps out of the hot tub, walks to the bar, looking
only straight ahead. She opens the door and closes it behind her.
Please remember to lock the deadbolt. I’m too far away to hear it click
over the noise.
I exit the tub quietly, grab my jeans and stumble into them, leaving the
rest. I’ve got only my fists and my wits to protect Vannah, and I don’t need
the hindrance of clothes.
My hair is dripping over my shoulders as I leave the pool area, walk
into my backyard.
Sammy runs toward me, but I have no choice but to shoo him away.
Sydney stands by the fence, barking like a menace. She’s a mother
protecting her pup, and right now that’s working in my favor.
Then I see them. Two muscled men—one blond and one dark-haired,
both dressed in black—enter the backyard, both armed with pistols.
I draw in a breath, will my beating heart to slow. I’ve faced armed men
—though not with firearms—in the big house, and I managed to take them
out. The trick is pull courage out of your gut and act more menacing than
they are.
