Was I really about to do this here?
At my work? On the control board?
God, I think I was...
How was this even my life now? Me... doing this, with a gorgeous man like Tully...
Something beeped, and he groaned. He tried to widen his legs and I pinned him against the panels, grinding against him like some horny teenager. My god, it was so unbidden. So wicked.
So hot.
Something beeped again, and he smiled against my mouth. “You’re about to set me off,” he said, then kissed me again, deeper, more frantic. “Gonna make me—”
It beeped again, and then again, and again, and again.
I tried to see what it was, not wanting to take my mouth from his, not wanting to stop...
“Is that your watch?” he asked. “Take it off.”
But it wasn’t my watch.
Then I saw what was beeping.
“Holy shit.”
“Oh yeah,” Tully breathed. “I need to get naked.”
“No. Holy shit,” I said, stepping back and letting him find his feet. I couldn’t take my eyes off the screen. “Holy shit, Tully.”
Whether he could see the seriousness in my eyes, or if it was my voice, I wasn’t sure. But he followed my line of sight. “What is it?”
“That’s an early detection warning.”
The data reel began to spin, and more lights flashed.
“An early detection warning for what?”
I met his gaze, my heart hammering. “A cyclone.”
CHAPTER THREE
TULLY
I stared at the radar.Jeremiah flipped some switches and made the beeping stop. “But that won’t reach us, right? It’s so far away.”
Jeremiah didn’t answer.
In the next few seconds, he had his phone pressed to his ear and he was searchin’ on one radar while reading data on another.
I should have known then.
Nothing scared him.
But he looked kinda scared now.
I looked at the radar that had been beeping, the same one Doreen had signalled to. She’d been watching something on it, was concerned enough to mention it...
On the blinking radar, a massive cloud band was moving across Asia. It was sweeping southeast, carried on a warm tropical low. A massive spiral rainband, with intense rainfall extending outward from the centre. And it was now projecting a path to cross land over Darwin.
