Chapter 11
âIzabel?â
Drake approached his wife carefully. She was huddled at the edge of the cot, knees drawn to her chest with her arms around them. He glanced back at Tim and mouthed, âWhat happened?â
The analyst hitched his shoulders; worry creased his forehead.
âIza?â
âI have a headache,â she whispered, voice scratchy.
He glanced at the glass of water and the Advil on the small table beside the cot and tried not to sigh.
âYou hooded me.â Brown eyes glared at him.
âIzaââ
âYou tranqâd me.â
His mouth thinned as he clenched his jaw. Drake had no defense because he did do those things.
âYouâve changed.â She lowered her eyes to the floor, lips quivering. âThe Drake I knew would never do those things. He wouldnât do anything that would hurt me.â She rubbed her forehead.
âAnd I never would,â he gritted. âYou were going to hurt yourself fighting me.â
âWhy didnât you blindfold me instead?â
Drake glanced back at Tim, whoâd moved to the far end of the room to give them privacy. He took a step closer to Izabel.
âBecause thatâs our thing,â he said, voice low. âI didnât want to taint our memories of something beautiful.â
Her lips twisted into a sneer that made him bristle. âSo you decided it was better to scare me than to ruin our silly sex games?â
Silly? He could be an ass and remind her how much she enjoyed being blindfolded, naked, with her hands gripping the brass frame of the bed while he spread her legs and devoured her pussy.
Dammit. He probably shouldnât have thought of that memory either. His craving for her taste was becoming unbearable.
âI didnât think youâd react that way. I was with you, Iza. You knew I would never let anything hurt you.â
âDonât you get it? Youâre not familiar. How many times do I need to tell you! Youâre a stranger.â
âThen itâs time to get to know your husband again.â He reached out to caress her face, but she jerked away from his touch. He lowered his arm, beating back the weight of bitterness and defeat that was threatening to bury him. He nodded to the water and Advil. âTake that and letâs go.â
âWhereâs Marcus?â It was as if a cloud lifted from her brain and she grew alert. âWhat have you done to him? Why did you hurt him?â
âHeâs a SEAL. What we did to him was nothing.â At least, nothing compared to Marcus finding out his part in his familyâs death.
âYou may have gotten him fired.â
âGood!â He stalked out from the confines of the divider. She didnât immediately follow him, but the slamming of the water glass indicated sheâd taken the pill. Her footsteps echoed behind him before he was treated to glaring eyes.
âHow can you say that? Heâs your friend.â
âAfter this, Iâm not so sure. And I mean, it was good if he was fired because he could do better things.â
Her eyes widened. âYouâre recruiting him? Was kidnapping us some kind of test?â She warily took in their command center, pursing her lips before returning her eyes to his, waiting for his answer.
