“Cigar butt?”
“Yeah.”
“I smelled it the night I repoed Otis’s car.” She downplayed the shudder that wiggled up her spine as she mentally connected the information. “They were there, in the bayou…waiting for Otis, watching me? They did the BMW and trashed my house last night?” She willed her frayed nerves smooth. “What now?”
He looked at her. “You hang at a safe house until I apprehend them.”
“No way.” She set her coffee cup down with a thud. “If you think I’m going to kick back and let these maniacs keep coming around to screw up my life then you’re nuts. I plan to be involved all the way.”
“Kate.” His tone was soft, like a parent scolding a naughty child. “You know I can’t allow you to get involved.”
“Not involved? I’m in this up to my neck. If I’m going down, I at least want to know who’s pulled me under. I’m not some helpless woman. I can take care of myself.”
A nerve played along his jaw as her sharp words cut a path through his macho mentality. She wouldn’t let him leave her out. She had too much to lose.
“If you don’t let me help, I’ll go out on my own. I have all the information I need.”
He stepped next to her; inches separated them. She could smell the tang of aftershave warmed by his body heat. She watched the rise and fall of his bare chest, half obscured by a large white bandage plastered on his side. Arousal sparked the nerve endings beneath her skin. He was too close. She stepped back.
Mick couldn’t believe his ears. What if she got her pretty little neck…
“I can arrest you, right now.”
