hell are you?
Uh-oh.
Kara stood, ready to jump into the fight. Maddie might have the face of
an angel, with fiery red corkscrew curls that surrounded her perfect features,
but she could be a furious foe when she wanted to be. Not that people saw
that side of her often. Her patients, young and old, adored her and her
usually sunny personality. But when Maddie was fighting for a cause or
something she believed in, she could be a dangerous enemy.
Kara watched as her friend threw back her shoulders, her white
physician s coat floating around generous curves that complemented her
angelic features. She forced back a grin as Maddie straightened to try to
compensate for her five foot three height, in preparation for battle.
I m Kara s& Simon stopped abruptly, as though not quite sure what to
say, before finishing hesitantly, friend. And I want to know why the hell
someone shot at her.
Helloooo. I m right here, Simon. Reaching out her hand, she gripped
his jaw, forcing him to look at her. I am able to answer for myself.
His face transformed, the anger draining from his features as his still-hot
eyes met hers. Reaching out to grasp her shoulders, he demanded, What
happened? Are you okay? Did they hurt you? His hands ran over her arms
before landing again on her shoulders.
Explaining what happened turned into an exhausting event. Simon
interrupted, swearing like a sailor and asking what felt like a million
freaking questions. Kara tried to answer them patiently to calm him down.
They all took a seat on the flimsy, uncomfortable chairs at the enormous
table. Kara talked, first introducing Simon and Maddie, and then going on to
answer more questions that were flowing from the furious man in front of
her, almost faster than she could answer them.
Simon cursed throughout her explanation.
And Maddie just watched with a dumbfounded, perplexed expression.
Did they catch them? Simon asked, his voice rough, as though he had
been through hell himself.
No. And Kara needs to be careful since they threatened her. Maddie
finally jumped in, her voice protective.
You neglected to mention that. Simon shot Kara a dark look.
Their conversation was interrupted by a plainclothes detective, a very
nice, youngish blond man who had identified himself as Detective Harris.
He dropped papers in front of both Kara and Maddie, asking quietly, Can
you look at the reports and see if you have anything to add? He put a casual
hand on the back of Kara s chair and leaned over her shoulder, perusing the
report with her.
A low, reverberating sound came from Simon s throat and she pulled her
eyes away from the report to look at him. But he wasn t looking at her. His
eyes were shooting fire at Detective Harris, a threatening look that startled
her.
Obviously, the detective wasn t the least bit intimidated. Boyfriend? he
asked quietly, quietly enough that Simon couldn t detect the words.
Friend, she mumbled back, hating herself for wishing she could
confirm the question with a simple yes answer.
She read the report quickly, with enough haste to get through it fast, but
not so rapidly that she wasn t accurate. After the official paperwork was
finished, she stood, stretching her back as she got to her feet, feeling slightly unsteady.
Careful! The detective took her arm to steady her slightly swaying
body. You ve had a tough day, he stated kindly. Reaching into his pocket,
he pulled out two business cards and handed one to both her and Maddie.
My card. Call me anytime. My cell phone number is on the back just in
case you need it.
Is that really necessary? Simon snarled, his arm curling around Kara s
waist, pulling her body against him protectively.
The detective shrugged. Yeah. It is. Kara was threatened. I want these
ladies to be able to reach me any time.
Thank you, Detective Harris. You ve been very kind. Smiling softly,
Kara shook the detective s hand. Maddie did the same, before all three of
them exited the building together.
Kara took a deep breath, letting the crisp, refreshing air of the outdoors
enter her lungs. It s a good day to be alive, she muttered to herself,
thankful to just be among the living and healthy.
As the three of them descended the stairs, approaching the sidewalk,
Maddie asked Simon quietly, You wouldn t happen to be related to Sam
Hudson? I know the last name is pretty common, but I was just wondering.
Stopping at the bottom of the stairs, Simon looked at Maddie with
surprise. Yeah& he s my brother. Why do you ask? Do you know him?
Maddie frowned. Oh, God. She let out a heavy breath. Uh& yeah& I
did. A long time ago. [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
