Over My Head
“He glanced down the hallway, not seeing anyone. Where the fuck had the gunfire come from? His heart hammered…Astra? Oh fuck.
He broke into a sprint, scared for what he might find. Her door, now partially open, swung on its hinges. Slade palmed the gun in his coat pocket and cocked the hammer, ready to fire.
“Astra? Hon?” Slade inched inside. He took in every detail of the apartment. No other doors stood ajar, but that didn’t mean she was alone. He hadn’t noticed anyone leave.
“Astra?” His foot ...caught on something and he looked down. Astra lay crumpled in a heap on the floor. His cop training kicked into high gear as he crept through the tiny apartment, sweeping the space. No one. He kicked the door closed then knelt beside her, feeling for a pulse. No blood, just a blossoming bruise on her arm and a matching one on her cheek. Damn. He should’ve invited her to his apartment. Lascivious maybe, but it would’ve saved her from the attack.
Slade scooped her into his arms. God, she barely weighed anything.MoreLess
