Читать книгу A Baby Before Dawn - Linda Castillo - Страница 1

She was having his baby…

Even in the darkness he could see that. He took her arm and looked her over. “Are you all right? Did they hurt you?”

She didn’t answer. Instead she spat out, “There are men out there with guns who want to kill me and I have no idea why!”

“I’m not going to let anyone hurt you, Lily.”

“Why is it that things never change with you? There’s always danger.”

“We don’t have time for this now.” Taking her hand, he tugged her deeper into the dark hall. “We have to get out of here.”

She resisted. She’d had enough of the lifestyle Chase craved. Her baby came first now, and it needed stability. Something she’d never get from Chase, no matter how much she loved him. “I’m not going anywhere with you.”

Hearing noises down the corridor, Chase pulled her against him, his breath hot and moist on her neck. His hand slid around to splay across her belly, reminding Lily of their child.

“Like it or not,” he breathed, “I’m your best hope of making it through the night.”
