Semua Bab Enemy From The Past (Unseen Enemy 4): Bab 41 - Bab 50

From the kitchen, Jim quietly watched Kat. Even two hours after leaving Dallas’ offices, she still looked shocked, disbelieving. Jim supposed it was quite an emotional and mental adjustment for her to have to make: from flat-out running in fear for her life, to being able to sit in one place and take a breath.She can stop now… I wonder if she even knows how to do that anymore?“OK,” he said. “So I’ll just pack up my stuff, and I’ll be out of your hair in about ten minutes.”Startled, Kat stared at him, her green eyes very dark. “You’re – you’re leaving?”“Now that Ferguson’s in jail? Of course I am.” He managed a grin. “Isn’t that what you’ve been waiting on for the past month? Now you can order your pizza exactly as you like it, and never run out of hot water, and you get your sofa back.”“Yeah. Yeah, that’s all true.”“Right. So – I’ll be off.” He folded the dishtowel neatly, and headed into the bathroom to collect his razor and toothbrush. Kat watched him go, frozen and stunned.

Kat nodded. Her breath caught as he pulled down her panties and knelt in front of her, those incredible eyes level with her pussy. His fingers touched her knees, moved up slowly. He touched the inside of her thighs, paused where they met at her pulsing, throbbing centre. He looked up at her again.“Kat? Is this OK?”“Yes.” She clutched his shoulders as his hands slid up another inch, another two. “Please… touch me.”“You’re certainly clear when you give direction,” he murmured. “Makes things much easier for me.”Jim stroked her lower lips, and she arched into his touch with a moan. He traced her slowly, feeling her heat and wetness rush out to meet his fingers. Never in his life had he known a woman so hungry, so starved for touch. Kat was soaked and primed from the smallest contact, and the musky scent of her arousal filled his senses.“Can I?” he said. “With my mouth?”“Oh,” she gasped as her pussy opened even more to his fingers. “Oh, God. Yes.”Jim brushed his fingers over her aga

Beth was curled up against Jim, her head on his chest. She was relaxed and drowsy, but she was fighting going to sleep: he felt too good to want to leave just yet. He stroked her back and she glanced up at him.“You doing OK there, Beth Harper?” he asked.“Better than OK. I’m great.”Those golden eyes gazed at her, warm and soft. “You want me to stay tonight?”“I want you to stay every night.” Beth ran her fingers over his powerful upper body. “And I don’t mean on the sofa-bed. You never have to stay out there again.”“Thank Christ for that,” he said. “That thing damn near brought me to my knees in agony.” His eyes flared. “Unlike you, baby, who brought me to my knees for a different reason altogether.”Her breath caught. He saw her response and slowly, he pulled her up to his mouth. Beth moaned softly as he kissed her, and Jim grinned against her lips.“I thought you were sleepy,” he teased.“I was.” She gasped as his hand traveled down the curve of her stomach and started to stroke

Emma gripped the edge of the sink as a wave of dizziness washed over her. She blinked at herself in the mirror, feeling breathless and worried.OK, calm down. It’s just a dizzy spell. Totally normal; everyone gets them. It doesn’t mean anything. Right?But her mind was busy now, working and thinking, weighing and evaluating, and it was coming up with some things that she didn’t like very much at all. For example, for the past three days, she’d been totally wiped out by two o’clock in the afternoon. She’d chalked the fatigue up to a few poor nights’ sleep… but what about fatigue combined with whole-body weakness, which she’d felt just the day before? Throw in this overwhelming dizziness, and she was starting to see an emerging picture.Emma forced herself to meet her own frightened eyes in the mirror. She had to ask Dean to take her to the hospital. She had just been in for a check-up with Doctor Fife two weeks before and everything had been fine, so she’d go back and do a follow-up. N

“He’s coming,” she said quietly. “Not for sure, but maybe. Cordelia seems to think there’s a good chance.”“I know. Dallas told me.”“Right.” She drank again and he followed suit. “And in my opinion, any chance is too much. Too dangerous.”“I’ll protect you, Beth. So will Dallas.”“And Olivia, and Jenny, and Emma? Can you protect them too? Emma’s pregnant now… you honestly think that Dean isn’t going to lose his mind with paranoia and worry? And what about the guys – can you keep them safe? What about you… are you sure you’ll see him coming? What if he hurts you?”“Beth.” He took a deep breath. “Dallas has a safe house. We can hide you –”“What, hide all of us? And for how long? Nobody goes to work for six months?”Jim ran his hand over his forehead, feeling hot all of a sudden. He drank some more beer, thinking that might help. “We can figure this out. The cops will put his picture out on the wire, and every cop in the state will be looking for him…”“Sure,” she said. “And how many p
