She made a sudden turn to the left, heading in the direction of their parked automobile. If Randy were to follow her, then there would be no need to sacrifice anyone else.

She jolted herself awake by reminding herself that she had a gun in the car. Now she had to concentrate on running in order to reach shelter quickly enough to make advantage of it.

She ran faster and harder as the car came into view, despite the stinging sensation she was experiencing in her legs. She was also fighting against the force of the wind.

It was possible for her to utilize the vehicle as a shield before drawing her weapon on the attacker. It was a mistake on Jerome's part to question her willingness to fire. She could fire her weapon, and she'd still live.

As she got closer to the vehicle, she looked back and was surprised to see that Jerome was following closely behind. He lunged at her, grabbed her arm, and dragged her to a crouching position behind the driver's door, where she was hidden from view.

    Jerome engaged in some additional listening and responded with a few terse, abbreviated statements. After that, he detonated his explosive in Phil's direction. "Jack needs to clean up." After that, he went on to explain how they had tricked him, and then he concluded by saying, "I propose you deal with him before I get back." After some silence and attentiveness, he spoke up and said, "And, Phil. This in no way indicates that I trust you. It's just a simple way of saying that I only have you at the moment. I'll get back to you as soon as I can."He hung up. The tension in the car was as thick as the storm that was raging outside, yet neither Anna nor Jerome spoke to ease it. In order to bring order to the confusion that was taking place within her head, Anna desired to relax and think. However, that would have been an overly simple solution. She should have realized there would have been issues to come. Without giving any prior notice, Jerome sped the car into the parking lot of a n

    Jerome made his way toward the boat while keeping an eye out for problems, clinging to Anna, and struggling against the elements. They were saturated in a short amount of time as they made their way down the dock ramps, which were covered in splashes of water.After climbing up onto the rapidly shaking deck of the Adiós and placing his bag on the floor, Jerome grabbed Anna and pulled her to safety. The ship continued to rock violently. Once he was satisfied that she had a firm grasp and was not going to fall, he got his luggage and led her down a short flight of stairs into the cabin.Now it was time for him to retrieve the funds and the goods, and then get the heck out of Dodge. Easy. Fast. I don't think so. He felt a tingling sensation at every nerve ending in his body.This feeling of being pumped up and on edge was more than just ready; it was his inner alarm for peril, the one that had kept him alive many times in the past. And he had no intention of doing anything different th

    Before Anna could even regain her breath, he had a hold of her and was dragging her kicking and screaming onto the dock from the boat. As soon as she had planted both feet on the ground, he grabbed her hand in his, and they started sprinting despite the rain and the strong wind that was hitting them.A few seconds later, Anna and Jerome boarded the boat that belonged to the woman. She sprinted towards them while shouting in a panic, "Save him! Please come to the rescue of my hubby.While he was doing so, Jerome dropped his bag on the ground and handed Anna his revolver.Her chest was tight with terror. The water was extremely hazardous, and the fury of Mother Nature was significantly more dangerous than both Randy and Pedro together. She yelled, "You stay alive, damn it!" while the waves in her stomach churned in a manner reminiscent of the ocean.He didn't answer. Even if he did hear her, she had her doubts. Already, he was climbing up over the side of the boat and diving into the wa

    When Anna saw Randy standing in her way, her natural instinct to survive jumped into high gear. She turned and took a sharp left off the path she was on, and then she resumed racing toward the car from a different angle, dragging Randy away from the rescue team who were unaware of what was going on because of concern for their safety. A gunshot was heard behind her, a blast that pierced the ferocity of the wind with a ferocious howl, and it came from the direction of her. Anna was so startled that she almost leaped out of her skin, and she tensed up in anticipation of agony that never materialized. She was able to maintain her running pace. There was yet another gunshot. No, two. Two attempts.She was so taken aback by those harsh words that she immediately slumped back into her seat. She wasn't even aware that she had been bracing herself for a conflict by sitting up straight. As she began to comprehend the situation, she stated, "I believed this was about doing the right thing and

    The door to their chamber was flung open by Jerome for the second time in the space of an hour. He questioned, "Are you certain you have everything?" before shutting the door and dumping a few bags on the ground before closing the door. They used a false name to check into the hotel, looked around the room, and then left to make extensive purchases of supplies that they could require during their extended stay. "We are unable to depart for whatever reason. And that point cannot be emphasized enough by me. It's not a good idea. We snuck in here to become a part of the chaos that was going on outside because of the storm. When things settles down, people will start paying more attention to us because we're not going anywhere.Anna made herself comfortable on the bed while simultaneously placing a number of large Macy's bags on the mattress next her. During the entirety of their shopping excursion, she maintained a wary demeanor toward him. This was most likely because to the nasty moo

    She heaved a sigh and then leaned on the sink while glancing at the reflection of herself. Since she had first met Jerome, she had had significant changes in more areas of her life than just her sexuality. However, she had a premonition that he would treat her in this manner. She had the impression that he was the driving force behind the changes that were inevitably going to take place in her life. When she thought back to the evening they'd first met, she recalled the feeling of tense anticipation that he'd inspired in her. The way she had known that he would make her look inside herself in some manner, forcing her to consider facts that she wasn't entirely sure she was willing to face. She was aware, on some level, that she had been keeping secrets from herself. Jerome had brought her to a decision point in life. After the completion of this adventure, she would be forced to make a decision on the course that her life would take.Would she put up a struggle to walk that beautifu

    After the bathroom door was closed, she climbed onto the bed, positioned herself so that she was leaning against the headboard, and began to dial Dean's number. It was obvious that he had been waiting for her call because he answered the phone after the first ring and shared the good news that Jerome's testimony would be accepted.“Excellent. He is a reliable and strong witness. His brother and father were both in law enforcement.”“I know,” Dean said. “I had him investigated.”“That was fast,” she said, pleased to hear there were no skeletons in Jerome’s closet, but not surprised. He was pretty straightforward about who he was, the good and the bad.“The FBI expected we’d want the information,” Dean commented. “They handed his file over on a silver platter. He not only looks good on paper, he has the defense shaking in their shoes.”She frowned. “Exactly why Pedro wants him dead.”“And you, too,” he grimly added, his voice muffled by static on the line, probably from the storm. “Any

    Her facial expression suggested that she was aware that she had pushed him beyond his limits and caused him one too many scares that day. She was aware that she had pushed him to the breaking point by doing this to him. His patience had finally completely given out, and he was no longer able to control his emotions. What he was experiencing was something that he despised, to put it mildly.He ran at her and grabbed her hand as he got close. "Come with me now or I swear to God that I will throw you over my shoulder and carry you," the man said. "Come with me now."She sounded as though she was in shock as she mumbled something into the phone like, "I'll call you back, but don't get on that plane until I talk to you again." Her face was filled with a look of shock. After receiving a stern look from Jerome, she quickly responded, "I'll call back," and then pressed the End button. “Jerome—” When the elevator bell rang, you could see the terror written all over her face."Yeah, I'm about

    Three days later In the courtroom, Anna was standing. As soon as she learned that Pedro had been found guilty on all charges, she felt nothing but joy and happiness. The time spent deliberating had only been for a total of four hours. Anna wanted to celebrate this victory on so many fronts and on so many levels that she wanted to dance. The next person in line would be Jack, but her supervisor was taking care of that one.As soon as she was able to escape the pandemonium that ensued when the court was adjourned, her eyes immediately found Jerome's, and she and he exchanged a wordless glance of happiness with one other. It was a done deal. Never again would Pedro inflict pain on another person.When it came to Randy, the FBI had located him with the help of a confidential source and had carried out the arrest flawlessly.On the steps leading up to the courtroom, there was a group of reporters with flashing cameras waiting for them, and Anna made a brief remark. It was over much too qu

    It was then that she tore the bracelet off of her arm. "I don't require the bracelet at this time. I can no longer avoid dealing with the past. I'm done letting it define me. I'm resigning from my job. I'm going to begin from scratch. It's time for me to start over. And I want to accomplish it alongside you.His expression suddenly changed to one of surprise. A glimmer of optimism. After that, it was gone, and the chill returned. "Until such time as I do something that causes you to have doubts about yourself or possibly my motives. Something that has you seeing myself as a negative influence despite the fact that I am not." “No.” How was it possible for her to communicate with him? At this point, it would be pointless to declare her love because no one would listen. He was under the impression that she did not have a favorable opinion of him and that she did not trust him on some level. She recalled a chat the two of them had back in Houston; therefore, she was aware of what steps t

    He gave her one of those smiles as he passed her by. "It's great to have you back, Anna." The phrases carried an undercurrent of flirtatious intent, which he seemed incapable of avoiding when speaking to a woman.She did not extend an invitation for him to have a seat. She addressed her question to him in a chilly manner, saying, "What can I do for you, Frank?" The intention behind her icy demeanor was to drive him away. He never stopped regarding her as his property, and he made an effort to stake his claim to her at every opportunity that presented itself. Her greatest protection was to maintain some distance between them.Frank's eyes drifted over her shoulder to the table where the two agents were playing cards, and then they settled there. Jerome stood there, a fleeting expression of unease appearing on his face; most people wouldn't notice, but she knew Frank better than she wanted to. She smiled to herself privately, relishing the look of bewilderment on his face.Frank switch

    "No," he responded. "That is not going to happen. You are not being used by anyone as a bait. I was the one who got you into this mess, and I'll be the one to get you out of it.They were staring at one another, her lips were apart, and it seemed as though the world was somehow pulling them apart, despite the fact that just a few days earlier it had brought them together.In the end, she admitted, "I got myself into this by taking on this case." "I'll find a way to get out of this."She avoided him, and this time he turned around to watch her depart after she had already left the room. "Anna," he called out to her as she moved toward the entrance to the room. When she looked back over her shoulder, her gaze traveled to his with a questioning expression on her face.Jerome declared, "This is not going to end here."The atmosphere became tense as the seconds ticked by until she turned and walked out of the room, the door closing behind her.Jerome made himself comfortable on the mattres

    She took a deep breath and realized that her feelings were, at best, erratic, and that this was not entirely due to the fact that she was dating Jerome. The fact that her father was there in the courtroom that day caused her to experience mental confusion. He'd been sitting there with an accusatory expression on his face the whole time. But no matter how flawed he would want to find her performance, he wouldn't be able to, and the only reason he wanted to find it problematic was because she was performing work that he didn't approve of. She was at the pinnacle of her abilities and giving her absolute best performance. She wanted Pedro to be locked up, and she was willing to do whatever it took to make that happen. Her one and only regret was that she couldn't genuinely share the improvement with Jerome, because for the sake of appearances, they were required to pretend as though they were strangers. However, they had already accomplished too much to let an affair ruin their credi

    "This house has a total of three bedrooms. I sat you on the seat that is to the left of the door. It's also prettier and more spacious. The papers you need to review were sent to you by your boss. They are on the dresser, where you can find them."Okay," she said. “Thanks.”Phil continued, "We will want you to be in a controlled setting as much as possible, so only your immediate family and those associated to the case will be allowed to visit on a limited basis." I need a list of everyone who has a chance of being let in so that we may conduct background checks on them. They are not permitted entry if their name does not appear on that list. You'll always have three agents at your disposal, including Agent Sandro and the other two." His attention briefly shifted to Jerome. "After everything that went down with Jack, I don't blame him for being wary of everyone," she said. After that, he had a direct conversation with Jerome. We placed him under custody late last night.

    She came to a halt when he held out his hand in a stopping gesture. He said, "You're going to go back to your perfectly planned life, free of evil influences like myself." I am the one who got you involved in this mess with Randy, and I am the one who will get you out of it. I'll get you your life back. I give you my word that..."He grabbed the bags and then reached for the door, yanking it open before she could answer and tell him that what she truly wanted was...him. He opened the door before she could tell him that she wanted him.The majority of the trip to Austin was spent with Jerome in a sour mood, acutely conscious of her every action and every sound. He was driven completely insane by her yearning, his rage, and his frustration. with...an additional component. Something that he did not wish to contemplate further. However, he was unable to reject the fact that he had feelings for Anna, nor was he able to deny how inappropriate he was for her.He was not the kind of man who

    After several hours, Anna awoke while she was resting on her stomach. Because they had been sleeping through the night, the room was pitch black. She gave a sly grin to herself. The hand of Jerome was resting on her exposed butt. Certainly an example of a butt guy.She let out a soft sigh as she reflected on the many enjoyable hours of sexual activity that they had spent together. Lovemaking. His word, not hers. What had transpired between them, on the other hand, had been significantly more satisfying and potent than any other sexual encounter she had had before he came into her life. Indeed, lovemaking. She had nothing except sexual encounters with her former partner. This… This experience I had with Jerome was about more than just the simple pleasures the body can provide. Because of this, she found herself in a state of mind in which the rest of the world began to disappear into a place that she shared with only one other person—with Jerome.Her thoughts immediately went to hi

    They pumped, together, for long moments, and then they stilled, staring at one another, and he saw in her what he felt in himself. They were both bewildered by the plethora of feelings and pleasures that were surging through them at the same time.Her unkempt hair framed her heart-shaped face, and she waited with her lips parted for him to approach. "Damn, you're beautiful," he murmured as he lowered his mouth to take hers, and his hands reached beneath her backside to pull her closer to him. "Damn, you're beautiful," he murmured again. While he continued to pump, he angled her hips, and she continued to take it... she begged for more. She was tense for a few seconds before her body jerked into release, which came too soon or not soon enough. Until finally, she shattered.He continued to ride her while looking at her and being mesmerized by the sight of her approaching. He restrained himself and waited until he was certain that she had reached her full level of contentment. When her
