Chapter 291: Nadine, Logan

Monday. Task Force Headquarters. Washington, DC.NADINE BAKER HAD LEARNED a long time ago that she could trust no one. She'd learned that lesson from her first husband, then again from her second partner at the CIA. Every few years in her twenties and thirties, it seemed she'd had to relearn the lesson.Somewhere along the way, she'd finally gotten it right.Right about now that beady eyed little bastard would be swinging by her office to help her escape. Only, she wasn't waiting for him.She boosted herself up onto the water tank of the toilet against the wall in the ladies' bathroom. The small window was just eighteen by eighteen inches. She'd measured it early on and had taken the time staying late a few times to create her own exit.There were regrets. She didn't like what she'd been forced to do. Part of her genuinely liked these people. The moments when she'd been able to forget what she was really doing. Those were happy memories. But they were lies.Skilton had h

Chapter 292: Logan, Skilton

The room let out a collective breath."Nadine killed two other employees. She also killed Oliver Reid and Santiago Fern醤dez. According to building security, she got out through a bathroom window. The footage we do have has her leaving on foot. At some point she picked up a bucket left outside. I can only guess that it contained whatever she would need to make a clean exit."Kelsey sank into a chair. "She's gone then. Totally gone?""Not if I can help it," Joon muttered. "How did this happen?""Nadine was off-camera for less than two minutes." Diha leaned forward. "Our established protocol was that she'd get four minutes of time in a bathroom before we checked on her. She must have prepared a quick escape plan. That's the only explanation. And the alley? That feed isn't monitored as closely. It's lesser quality. It would be easy to pass her off as anyone."Nadine was gone. Logan knew they could gather useful intel surrounding how she'd left, but he didn't want them to get bogg

Chapter 293: Kelsey

Monday. Kelsey Young's Apartment. Washington, DC.KELSEY WASN'T SURE HOW she made it through burritos and drinks with the girls after their awkward as hell meeting. It was mostly a blur. She barely remembered calling Baruti to check on him and Samuel.She stood just inside the door to her apartment and stared around the nearly empty space.No part of her wanted to be here. Not alone. Not tonight.How long should she wait before seeing if Logan was home? Would he mind if she invaded his apartment tonight? What if the guys were at his place?She pulled out her phone, thumbs hovering over the keys.It wasn't like her to be this reliant on a man. But it was hard to not lean against Logan. He was always there for her, even when he frustrated her.Was she taking him for granted?She clicked her texts.At the very bottom of her screen, almost pushed out of sight, was an unread group text from her sisters. It was a late Thanksgiving text she'd never read.Kelsey clicked

Chapter 294: Logan

Tuesday. Logan Muller's Apartment. Washington, DC.LOGAN ROLLED OVER AND blindly reached for Kelsey's small form next to him.The sheets were cool to the touch.The swish of material tickled his ears.Someone-Kelsey?-was moving around the apartment.He lifted his head and pried an eye open in time to see a Kelsey sized shadow pass in front of the bedroom door.What was she doing up?He peered at the clock.It wasn't even two yet.His mouth was horribly dry and he could feel a headache coming on.Reaching over, he turned on the bedside lamp."Kel?" He pushed up and swung his legs over the side of the bed.She stepped into view, one hand braced on the doorframe. "Sorry, did I wake you?""I don't think so." He squinted at her.She'd changed into pajamas earlier, which only made her look more at home at his place. He liked it."What's wrong?" He pushed to his feet.She sighed and let her hands flop to her sides. "My brain won't shut off."He lifted his

Chapter 295: Kelsey

Tuesday. Logan Muller's Apartment. Washington, DC.KELSEY GASPED AS HER bare backside pressed to the cool wall. Her clothes lay on the floor in a hastily discarded mess. Logan gripped her bottom and leaned into her.One moment she'd been on her knees, and the next she was naked and in his arms."Logan-your shoulder," she managed to get out."It's fine," he said against her ear.Her heart raced. Logan was always so tightly controlled. For the first time she was seeing that control slipping, and it was chipping away at that last barrier she'd been able to keep between them.His lips kissed a trail across her shoulder.She slid her hands around his neck, but before she could dig them into his hair, he grabbed her wrists and forced them up over her head.Kelsey gasped and shivered.It was like she'd discovered the lock on the cage that contained Logan's baser, more carnal side.He released her hands. She let her arms relax, folding them over her head, but didn't reac

Chapter 296: Kelsey

Kelsey sat up, straining to hear what he heard.He laid a finger across his lips and flipped the lamp off.Kelsey slid out from between the sheets and dropped to the floor in a crouch. She grabbed the bag she'd thrown together and shoved her phone inside. Logan was already at the bedroom door.A low squeaking sound. No, was that straining? What was it?It was coming from the living room.The balcony doors.Kelsey shoved her feet into her shoes and drew her gun.Logan padded around the bed to her and pulled her close so he spoke into her ear. "Two on the balcony. Maybe more."She nodded and tossed her bag on the bed.Common break-in? Her head said that was unlikely. Did it make more sense if they were being targeted?Logan yanked on sweats and a hoodie, then bent and pulled a large, black duffle bag from under the bed. He waved her to him and once more pulled her close to speak into her ear."I want to see who they are. Let them get inside. Take cover in the kitche

Chapter 297: Logan

Tuesday. Logan Muller's Apartment. Washington, DC.LOGAN KEPT CLOSE TO Harper's car, watching for any shadow or movement. If possible, Logan would have preferred for someone to ride with Harper and keep an eye on their captive. But they'd all been on auto-pilot, just trying to get away.Logan glanced in the rearview mirror at Felecia and Kelsey. They'd begun calling everyone."Is Zora answering?" he asked."Not yet." Kelsey held up a finger. "Tabby? Tabby, it's Kelsey. Is Jamie there? Are you both okay?""Diha and her family are fine," Felecia announced. "The alarms from headquarters woke her up, and she's already working. Miles is on his way to her, so he'll check the road for any sign they're being watched or in danger.""They should go somewhere else for now," Logan said.Felecia bent over her phone. "I'll text her that.""Jamie and Tabby are fine, too," Kelsey said. "They're packing their stuff now.""Good," Logan muttered.He pulled out his phone.Their he

Chapter 298: Kelsey

Tuesday.KELSEY PEERED OVER THE seat at the dazed young man bound and gagged in the back of the car. She'd seen Felecia nail the guy with a baseball bat, but Kelsey had assumed the helmet had protected him. Now she was worried the kid had a concussion. Could be that or fear. He had to know getting caught was bad news for him.Did he have any idea who he'd attacked tonight? Or why?"He moving?" Harper asked."Not even a little." She twisted to face forward.He tilted the rearview mirror so he could see her face. "Thanks for checking on me back there."His words stung, though they dripped with sarcasm.She'd hoped Harper wouldn't remember her coming out of Logan's apartment.What did she say? What could she say?Kelsey wasn't ready to commit to Logan. Suddenly things were happening fast around them. She was drowning in feelings she didn't know how to deal with and then add Logan to the mix? It was too damn much. She was suffocating under the pressure of it all."He

Chapter 299: Logan

Tuesday. Safe House. Washington, DC.LOGAN WAS IN A piss poor mood and it had nothing to do with his home being violated, the attack on him or his team, or the disaster that was their current assignment. No, it was all centered on one person. Kelsey.He'd retreated into the narrow office in the condo to separate himself from the others while he got his head in the game. Still, all he could do was think about Kelsey.Where had he gone wrong? How had he screwed up this badly?All he'd wanted to do was check on her. That was it. He hadn't realized she was going to cut out his heart.Fuck.He resisted the urge to press his hand to his chest to check for a wound.They hadn't spoken in a few hours, but the wounds were still fresh.Kelsey had faulted him for his concern for her. And here he'd congratulated himself for not being selfish and asking her to ride with Harper. Damn it, he was doing his best to adapt. Couldn't she give him some time to adjust? Shouldn't they be al

Chapter 300: Kelsey

Tuesday. Safe House. Washington, DC.KELSEY'S INSIDES FELT LIKE crap.It was like she was divided in half.One part of her was freaking out and a complete mess. That was the idiotic part of her that had been in control earlier when she'd wrecked everything with Logan.Had she really broken up with him? Had they ever been together? Could she break up with someone she wasn't technically dating? Were they going to find Nadine? Had anyone died in the fires? Was this job too much for her? Should they cut their losses and turn away?Her other half was emotionless, dazed and stuck merely watching events unfold around her. That was where she was now.She pulled her brush through her hair and stared at her reflection. Outwardly she looked like herself, if a little worse for wear. But on the inside? She was a mess.After her awkward shift on watch, she'd crawled into bed and slept. Or tried to. Dozed was more like it. She'd never truly settled in, always tossing and turning. Mor
