Davis, Keyonna - Faceless Enemy [Pine Valley 2] (Siren Publishing Classic) Read Online Free PDF

set the office up as a guest bedroom for Kerri and for her and Cane to go shopping for whatever a female would need. He knew Ali and Cane would enjoy this task, and judging by the excitement in Ali’s voice and Cane’s squeals in the background, he wasn’t wrong. They also promised to have everything ready when he got there. With that taken care of, Chase put away his cell phone and used his satellite phone to make the one call that he never thought he would have to make once he walked away. He called the two members of his old team whom he trusted with his life. He knew they would be together, so he only needed to call one of them.
    Gavin and Angel had been best friends since kindergarten and did everything together, including sharing women. They were the reason that Chase wasn’t surprised when Duncan and Logan did the same thing. He recognized the bond that they shared because he had already seen it before in his team members. Chase thought over the missions they went on and the downtime the three of them shared while he waited for one of them to answer.
    “Chase, my man! We were just talking about you. You remember that mission we went on in Tijuana and you met that chick in the bar who really was a ma—”
    Chase cut Gavin off before he could get started. “Not now, Gavin. I need your help. I need you and Angel here as soon as possible. I will explain everything once you get here.”
    “We’re on our way.”
    “I’m flying home as well, and I am carrying precious cargo. I will meet you at the airport in four hours.”
    Chase didn’t wait for a response before hanging up. He didn’t need one from the guys to know that they would be there waiting for him, and they would already have the area cleared and secure before he arrived. They didn’t even know the threat or what he was carrying, but they knew security and were excellent at their jobs. Once they arrived in Pine Valley, Kerri would be safe. He already considered her his, and that meant he would protect her with his life.

Chapter 3

    Kerri felt like she was floating between reality and sleep. She tried to make herself wake up and open her eyes but couldn’t. Damn, those must be some good drugs. She tried to turn over and get more comfortable, but arms that felt like steel gripped her tight. Something was wrong. Kerri realized that she wasn’t floating. She was being carried by someone. The more she struggled, the tighter the grip of whoever was carrying her became.
    Just as she began to panic, she heard Chase’s voice. “Easy, little bit. I’ve got you, and I’m taking you to a secure location, so settle down before you hurt yourself.”
    Calm washed over Kerri instantly, and she relaxed in Chase’s huge arms. She snuggled into his chest and breathed in his clean masculine scent. She could tell Chase didn’t wear cologne, but he still smelled damn good. His warmth went a long way in settling Kerri. Unfortunately the pain in her leg kept her from going back to sleep. The pain was almost unbearable, but Kerri hated the way the medicine made her feel and didn’t want to take anymore. She was strong and could suffer through the pain because she had no intentions of taking anymore medicine or going back into a drug-induced sleep.
    Kerri opened her eyes when she felt Chase’s chest rumble as he began talking to someone.
    “The area is secure, and we are ready for transport,” she heard one of the men say.
    “Holy shit, Chase. Is that the CO’s daughter?” the other one yelled.
    She tried to turn her head to see who was talking but Chase wouldn’t let her budge. At this point she really didn’t care who he was talking to or what was being said. She just wanted the pain in her leg to stop. Deep breathing wasn’t working. The pain was excruciating and becoming worse. Chills swept over Kerri as the cool night air blew across the sweat covering her body. As the nausea caused the bile in her stomach to rise, Kerri realized that she wasn’t being
