Through a Crimson Veil
“The nightclub was tamer than many, and attracted an upwardly mobile clientele, but after ducking in and out of bars for hours, looking for his contacts, he’d had more than enough of these types of establishments.
Grimacing from the thumping bass, he moved deeper into the club. If he’d been protecting anyone but Mika, Conor would have called it quits an hour ago.
Mika. Every time he thought of her, he felt uneasy. Odds were, he was worrying about nothing. The shield around his home was solid; no one who didn’t have permission to enter would get through to hurt her. Conor rolled his shoulders, trying to ease his tension. Maybe after he left here, it wouldn’t hurt to give Mika a call and make sure she was okay.
Thinking of her made him frown. How the hell had she kept him prisoner? He’d left as soon as she’d quit doing whatever it was she’d done to the door. She’d probably had a good laugh over the haste he’d shown in escaping, but he was beyond caring about that. Mika could find somethi...ng amusing in any situation anyhow, and damned if part of him didn’t like that.MoreLess
