He'd probably already foreseen
that given the... He'd probably already foreseen
that given the slightest hint that Jared would prefer it, I would choose to sleep beside Jared, and
then keep myself awake worrying that I'd made Jared unhappy by being there and that I'd hurt
Ian's feelings in the bargain
“Fine,” Jared snapped“But if you try cuddling up to me tonight… so help me, O'Shea“Not to sound overly arrogant, but to be perfectly honest, Jared, were I so
inclined, I think I could do better
Despite feeling a little guilty about wasting so much needed space, I probably did sleep better
alone
We didn't have to go to a hotel againThe days started to pass more quickly, as if even the
seconds were trying to run homeI could
replica fendi spy feel a strange western pull on my bodyWe were all
eager to get back to our dark, crowded haven
Even Jared got careless
It was late, no sunlight left lingering behind the western mountainsBehind us, Ian and Kyle
were taking turns driving the big moving truck loaded with our spoils, just as Jared and I took
turns with the vanThey had to drive the heavy vehicle more carefully than Jared did the van
The headlights had faded slowly into the distance, until they disappeared around a wide curve in
the road
We were on the homestretchIn a few short hours, I would see Jamie
We would unload the welcome provisions, surrounded by smiling faces
My first, I realized
For once the return would
dolce and gabbana knock off bring nothing but joyWe carried no doomed hostages this time
I wasn't paying attention to anything but anticipationThe road didn't seem to be flying by too
fast; it couldn't fly past fast enough as far as I was concerned
The truck's headlights reappeared behind us
“Kyle must be driving,” I murmured“They're catching up
And then the red and blue lights suddenly spun out in the dark night behind usThey reflected
off all the mirrors, dancing spots of color across the roof, the seats, our frozen faces, and the
dashboard, where the needle on the speed gauge showed that we were traveling twenty miles
over the speed limit
The sound of a siren pierced the desert calm
CHAPTER

Detained
The red and blue lights swirled in time with the siren's cry
Before the souls had come to this place, these lights and sounds had had only one meaningThe
law, the keepers of the peace, the punishers of offenders
Now, again, the flashing colors and angry noise had only one meaningA very similar meaning
Still the keepers of the peace
It wasn't as common a sight or sound as it had been beforeThe police force was only needed to
help in cases of accidents or other emergencies, not to enforce lawsMost civil servants didn't
have vehicles with sirens, unless the vehicle was an ambulance or a fire truck
This low, sleek car behind us was not for any accidentThis was a vehicle made for
chanel jewelry pursuitI'd
never seen anything quite like it before, but I knew exactly what it meant
Jared was frozen, his foot still pushing down on the gas pedalI could see that he was trying to
find a solution, a way to outrun them in this decrepit van or a way to evade them–to hide our
wide white profile in the low, gaunt brush of the desert–without leading them back to the rest
Without giving everyone awayWe were so close to the others nowThey slumbered,
unaware…
When he gave up after two seconds of frantic thought, he exhaled
“I'm so sorry, Wanda,” he whispered
“Jared?”
He reached for my hand and eased up on the gasThe car started to slow
“Got your pill?” he choked
“Can Mel hear
authentic hermes me?”
