“Aria.” The voice broke through her thoughts and she looked at the big man covering her with a gun. “Let’s go. Staybehindme.”
She didn’t know who he was but he’d said he was with Damian. He knew her name. He had freed her fromtheroom.
She followed him, stepping over another dead body on their way tothedoor.
They stepped onto a landing. Aria looked past the staircase winding below them to the four doors arranged around the landing. Three of themwereopen.
“I’vegother.”
She jumped a little and wrapped her arms around her chest as the man shouted in the general direction of the opendoors.
A well of panic opened up inside her. What if the man had been lying? What if he was someone else trying to hurt her? To keep her fromDamian?
But that didn’t make sense. He’d gotten her out of the room. Had killed men to gettoher.
She was still trying to sort out the details when Damian hurried from one of the open doors. He froze for the briefest of seconds, like he couldn’t quite believe she was standing in frontofhim.
Then he was rushing toward her, pulling her intohisarms.
Her feet went out from under her, the adrenaline that had propelled her through the apartment leaving her body inarush.
“It’s okay. I’ve got you,” Damian said into her hair. “I’vegot you.”
