The line went silent and she turned to Rafe. "Tate will have someone assist us. Just stay calm and keep doing what you're doing."
A grin spread across his handsome face and her heart began thumping in her chest. When he turned to look into her eyes, she felt it. Her body reacted like she'd been punched in the gut.
"You know, this isn't my first rodeo."
"Right."
She didn't know much about Rafe Martin, but she hoped to find out all she could.
Her phone rang and she tapped the speaker icon. "You're on speaker."
"I have an officer I trust on his way to you. Stay on course and head directly to the Bowman home now."
Sirens drew close and Addy turned her head to see the flashing lights behind the SUV following them. "I see him."
"Good. Call if you need anything else. I'm watching you on the computer."
"Roger."
She ended the call and glanced at the navigation system. They only had ten miles to go.
"How is he watching us on his computer?"
She grinned. "I'm wearing a tag."
Rafe nodded, but she saw his cheek round as a smile spread across his face.
“I didn’t know you utilized tracking tags. That’s smart.”
She grinned, but said nothing.
As they approached the Bowman home, Addy directed him. "Go around to the street behind. The garage is back there."
She lifted her phone again and typed out a text to Catalina.
"Please open the garage door."
She watched her phone screen as the words appeared.
"Done."
"Okay, the garage door is open, as soon as we approach, drive right inside."
Rafe chuckled. "Nice."
He adeptly pulled his vehicle into the garage next to the rented SUV they had picked up when they arrived.
She jumped from the vehicle and wasted no time running to the driver's side. Tossing her bag into the back of the SUV, Rafe stepped passed her. "I'm driving."
"I'm capable of driving."
"I know you are. But, I insist."
"Maybe I insist." She plopped her hands on her hips as she felt her temperature rise.
Rafe stopped and turned toward her. He stepped close, very close. She felt the heat radiate off of his body, which was still encased in a tight t-shirt that showed his muscles off nicely. His dark eyes bored into hers and she swallowed. His body bent at the waist until his nose nearly touched hers.
"I insist more than you," he whispered.
