Jake lowered his weapon, did a quick take of the hall and, seeing no one else, covered the distance between himself and Mackenzie in three seconds flat.
“Get out of here now!” he whispered vehemently, trying to push her toward the door, but she held her ground.
“I’m not leaving, Deputy Riley. I have a job to do, just like you.”
“We’re in pursuit of a suspect. You’re in danger here, and you just might end up in the line of fire again if you’re not careful. Now get out of here!”
“You’re wasting time. While you’re standing here arguing with me, you could be chasing him down.”
Jake’s eyes flashed. “You’re making my job very difficult, Mackenzie.”
Mackenzie frowned. “You’re not making mine very easy, either.”
Jake shook his head and motioned with his gun again. “We’ll talk about this later. For now, stay here. Do not go any farther into this building. Do you understand? The man we’re chasing is armed and isn’t afraid to shoot at anything that moves.”
