Оглавление“We need someone to cover us.” More shots shattered the air and Ryder pushed Emma down again, his breath coming in huffs.
He looked at the trees again, then pulled out his cell and sent an alert text to all available personnel.
Ryder glanced toward the barn and saw rifles peeking out of windows and doors. Then he moved his head slightly toward the house. A curtain was pulled back in an upstairs window.
Lowering his head, he ignored the floral scent wafting from Emma’s hair and whispered in her ear. “When I say go, I want you to run toward the barn, toward the doors. Someone will let you inside.”
“What about you?”
“I’m going to cover you, along with my men inside who are waiting.”
“Are you sure this will work?”
“If you run fast, yes.” He looked into her eyes, his heart beating against hers. “Belly-crawl if you have to and don’t look back.”
She nodded and gave him a solid stare. “Be careful, Ryder.”
Another shot hit the air.
“Just do it, Emma.”
