I crawled out of bed, gathering my panties and bra. Before I had them all the way on, the bedroom door burst open and two men in black suits with guns drawn rushed in.
“Freeze!” one shouted.
I screamed, dropping my bra.
“Let her get dressed,” Mr. Sorenson said, walking in. “She’s not coming with us.”
“What the hell is going on?” I asked, my arms crossed over my bare chest.
“Max testified against Cooper. We’re bringing him in.”
“That’s bullshit. We had a deal.”
“That was before we knew your boyfriend was still involved.”
“But he’s not!”
“Do you know that for a fact?”
The agent stared into my eyes a moment before his gaze dropped to my chest.
“Get out of here!” I yelled, furious.
“I’ll be out here waiting to talk with you,” he said with a grin.
After he left, I rushed to get dressed. Would Cooper still be out there in the living room?
What the hell was going on? Why did my life always have to fall apart once it was going well?
I received no answers in the living room from Mr. Sorenson. He would give me no information other than I was not to have contact with Cooper or Max.
He ignored my complaints and left. They had already taken Cooper away. I had no idea if he was okay or if they had hurt him. My eyes teared up as his apartment door closed.
THIRTY-ONE
Cooper
Mr. Sorenson stared at me from the other side of a wooden table. A mirror took up one wall of the otherwise barren room. I hadn’t said a word since they brought me in.
“We can do this the easy way or the hard way,” he said.
I stayed silent.
“Okay. We’ll bring the woman in too.”
“No,” I said, slamming my cuffed hands into the table.
“Ah, so you can talk.”
“Look, I don’t know where you’re getting your information, but I’m not involved with Max, Jeffries or any of them.”
“Jeffries?”
Fuck.
“Would that be Captain Jeffries, your CO at FOB Cobra?”
“You guys said you know everything, right? Have you seen me involved in any way since we got back?”
