Blank Slate
“That was certainly unexpected. Who was she? Houdini?
The sound of a car engine outside jerked his attention to the window. His hand automatically went to his jeans’ pocket where the keys should be, but no longer were. O’Connell must have taken them from him last night, and he’d slept through it.
Damn.
He launched himself out of bed, shoving his feet into his still-wet boots. Not bothering to take time to put on a shirt, he threw on a coat and grabbed his gun. Erik was a bit surprised she’d not ...taken the weapon too. Ten seconds after hearing the car start, he was outside.
She hadn’t made it far, the deep snow prevented that, but the chains on the SUV’s tires were doing their job, moving the car farther away from the cabin.
Erik took off after her, the snow hindering his efforts to move quickly, but before long, he’d caught up to the vehicle.
“Stop the car!” he yelled through the window.
O’Connell ignored him, which only served to infuriate him further. Did she think she was just going to drive out of here and leave him behind?MoreLess
