Jerome engaged in some additional listening and responded with a few terse, abbreviated statements. After that, he detonated his explosive in Phil's direction. "Jack needs to clean up." After that, he went on to explain how they had tricked him, and then he concluded by saying, "I propose you deal with him before I get back." After some silence and attentiveness, he spoke up and said, "And, Phil. This in no way indicates that I trust you. It's just a simple way of saying that I only have you at the moment. I'll get back to you as soon as I can."He hung up. The tension in the car was as thick as the storm that was raging outside, yet neither Anna nor Jerome spoke to ease it. In order to bring order to the confusion that was taking place within her head, Anna desired to relax and think. However, that would have been an overly simple solution. She should have realized there would have been issues to come. Without giving any prior notice, Jerome sped the car into the parking lot of a n

Jerome made his way toward the boat while keeping an eye out for problems, clinging to Anna, and struggling against the elements. They were saturated in a short amount of time as they made their way down the dock ramps, which were covered in splashes of water.After climbing up onto the rapidly shaking deck of the Adiós and placing his bag on the floor, Jerome grabbed Anna and pulled her to safety. The ship continued to rock violently. Once he was satisfied that she had a firm grasp and was not going to fall, he got his luggage and led her down a short flight of stairs into the cabin.Now it was time for him to retrieve the funds and the goods, and then get the heck out of Dodge. Easy. Fast. I don't think so. He felt a tingling sensation at every nerve ending in his body.This feeling of being pumped up and on edge was more than just ready; it was his inner alarm for peril, the one that had kept him alive many times in the past. And he had no intention of doing anything different th

Before Anna could even regain her breath, he had a hold of her and was dragging her kicking and screaming onto the dock from the boat. As soon as she had planted both feet on the ground, he grabbed her hand in his, and they started sprinting despite the rain and the strong wind that was hitting them.A few seconds later, Anna and Jerome boarded the boat that belonged to the woman. She sprinted towards them while shouting in a panic, "Save him! Please come to the rescue of my hubby.While he was doing so, Jerome dropped his bag on the ground and handed Anna his revolver.Her chest was tight with terror. The water was extremely hazardous, and the fury of Mother Nature was significantly more dangerous than both Randy and Pedro together. She yelled, "You stay alive, damn it!" while the waves in her stomach churned in a manner reminiscent of the ocean.He didn't answer. Even if he did hear her, she had her doubts. Already, he was climbing up over the side of the boat and diving into the wa

When Anna saw Randy standing in her way, her natural instinct to survive jumped into high gear. She turned and took a sharp left off the path she was on, and then she resumed racing toward the car from a different angle, dragging Randy away from the rescue team who were unaware of what was going on because of concern for their safety. A gunshot was heard behind her, a blast that pierced the ferocity of the wind with a ferocious howl, and it came from the direction of her. Anna was so startled that she almost leaped out of her skin, and she tensed up in anticipation of agony that never materialized. She was able to maintain her running pace. There was yet another gunshot. No, two. Two attempts.She was so taken aback by those harsh words that she immediately slumped back into her seat. She wasn't even aware that she had been bracing herself for a conflict by sitting up straight. As she began to comprehend the situation, she stated, "I believed this was about doing the right thing and

The door to their chamber was flung open by Jerome for the second time in the space of an hour. He questioned, "Are you certain you have everything?" before shutting the door and dumping a few bags on the ground before closing the door. They used a false name to check into the hotel, looked around the room, and then left to make extensive purchases of supplies that they could require during their extended stay. "We are unable to depart for whatever reason. And that point cannot be emphasized enough by me. It's not a good idea. We snuck in here to become a part of the chaos that was going on outside because of the storm. When things settles down, people will start paying more attention to us because we're not going anywhere.Anna made herself comfortable on the bed while simultaneously placing a number of large Macy's bags on the mattress next her. During the entirety of their shopping excursion, she maintained a wary demeanor toward him. This was most likely because to the nasty moo

She heaved a sigh and then leaned on the sink while glancing at the reflection of herself. Since she had first met Jerome, she had had significant changes in more areas of her life than just her sexuality. However, she had a premonition that he would treat her in this manner. She had the impression that he was the driving force behind the changes that were inevitably going to take place in her life. When she thought back to the evening they'd first met, she recalled the feeling of tense anticipation that he'd inspired in her. The way she had known that he would make her look inside herself in some manner, forcing her to consider facts that she wasn't entirely sure she was willing to face. She was aware, on some level, that she had been keeping secrets from herself. Jerome had brought her to a decision point in life. After the completion of this adventure, she would be forced to make a decision on the course that her life would take.Would she put up a struggle to walk that beautifu

After the bathroom door was closed, she climbed onto the bed, positioned herself so that she was leaning against the headboard, and began to dial Dean's number. It was obvious that he had been waiting for her call because he answered the phone after the first ring and shared the good news that Jerome's testimony would be accepted.“Excellent. He is a reliable and strong witness. His brother and father were both in law enforcement.”“I know,” Dean said. “I had him investigated.”“That was fast,” she said, pleased to hear there were no skeletons in Jerome’s closet, but not surprised. He was pretty straightforward about who he was, the good and the bad.“The FBI expected we’d want the information,” Dean commented. “They handed his file over on a silver platter. He not only looks good on paper, he has the defense shaking in their shoes.”She frowned. “Exactly why Pedro wants him dead.”“And you, too,” he grimly added, his voice muffled by static on the line, probably from the storm. “Any

Her facial expression suggested that she was aware that she had pushed him beyond his limits and caused him one too many scares that day. She was aware that she had pushed him to the breaking point by doing this to him. His patience had finally completely given out, and he was no longer able to control his emotions. What he was experiencing was something that he despised, to put it mildly.He ran at her and grabbed her hand as he got close. "Come with me now or I swear to God that I will throw you over my shoulder and carry you," the man said. "Come with me now."She sounded as though she was in shock as she mumbled something into the phone like, "I'll call you back, but don't get on that plane until I talk to you again." Her face was filled with a look of shock. After receiving a stern look from Jerome, she quickly responded, "I'll call back," and then pressed the End button. “Jerome—” When the elevator bell rang, you could see the terror written all over her face."Yeah, I'm about
