Her phone buzzed with Holt’s immediate reply.

Holt:Hell.Stay with Boone or one of the other guys.

Holt:They must’ve been watching your condo.

Radley swallowed.Her boss was right.They either had eyes on her building, the parking garage, or had somehow accessed the security systems there.She didn’t think they’d made a lucky guess about her wearing cargo pants.

Schultz had been livid when she’d accused him of both leaking her name and drugging and assaulting her.She’d left the agency, never looking back.Radley, along with her sister, had forged her own path.They’d brought him down though, and she feared he wanted revenge.

He’d caused his own problems, but she knew an arrogant ass like Schultz wouldn’t see it that way.He wouldn’t be happy until she was suffering, too, as messed up as that was.

Radley moved quickly to the front of the woods and caught sight of Cooper working, feeling slightly safer that she wasn’t out here alone.Any coward associated with Schultz wouldn’t approach her when she was surrounded by armed men.

But when she was alone?All bets were off.










Chapter 9

––––––––

BOONE FROWNED AS THEback door opened and Radley rushed in, her backpack slung over one shoulder.She looked like she’d seen a ghost.Whereas twenty minutes ago, she’d been perfectly fine, her face was pale now, her gaze scanning the empty warehouse.

“What’s wrong?”he asked, his voice gruff.

Her gaze sliced to his.“I got more texts.”

“Just now?How many more?”he asked, moving toward her.

“Four.No, make that five,” she said as her phone buzzed again.Boone’s focus narrowed as he looked down to the phone clutched in her hands.

You’ll pay dearly for your betrayal.

Fury washed over him as he read the texts above it, his anger hot and stabbing in his chest.“What the fuck?How do they know what you’re wearing?”

“They saw me,” she said, her voice thin.

“We’ve taken evasive measures all day.I’m positive we weren’t being followed.Whoever is watching you was either at your condo this morning or watching from afar at Shadow Security, correctly assuming that you work there.”
