Chapter 23: Chapter 23: Tabby

Monday. Hotel, New York City, NY.

TABBY PACED THE SMALL hotel room. Everyone else had gone straight to where the photos of Gazi with the crates had been taken while she had a conference call with two CIA agents who wouldn't give her their names and asked a series of weird questions about the morning.

Someone had tried to kidnap her.

It was surreal.

She wished she was with Jamie and the others. She knew there was nothing for her to do there. It made sense for her to go to the hotel rather than tag along with everyone else. And yet she wanted to be there. Because Jamie made her feel safe. He'd faced off against men to save her, and she wasn't quite ready to be on her own yet.

She pressed her hand to her chest, as if she could force her racing heart to calm the fuck down.
