Their breathing quieted. Heartbeats slowed and melded. The dying sun cast long shadows through their bedroom window. “You have to help her,” Mallory said quietly. His arm curled over her hip, and he pulled her closer. “I can take another week off work,” she said. “No way are you getting involved in this.” She looked over her shoulder and smiled. “You can’t stop me.” He kissed her fingers and smiled sadly. “I know I can’t stop you, but if you insist on coming with me, then I won’t go.” His silver gaze wasn’t angry or demanding. It was calm. Implacable. Mallory blew out a big breath of frustration. It was the first time Alex had refused to let her be involved in something. She knew he hid things from her occasionally. But the two of them had made a promise to one another the day investigators had uncovered her sister’s body. No more lies. Ever. And that was why he was telling her this now, she realized. Her fingers gripped his, hugging him to her. “I don’t want something bad to happen to you.” “I can take care of myself.” She swallowed. “I know you can, but I don’t want you to have to take care of yourself. I want to look after you. I want to be the one watching your back.” He ran a finger down her spine and followed it with his lips. She closed her eyes. “You know what I mean.” “I do. I feel it every time you go to work without me.” But he let her go anyway, because she needed the space to do her job, and he respected that. He respected her. She rolled onto her back. She didn’t want Alex to go on this job without her, but she knew she wasn’t the only one who needed space to work, even when that work wasn’t clearly defined. She touched his face. “I can’t go.” Alex insisted, but there was no conviction behind his words. “We have a wedding to prepare for and a dog to look after.” Rex was in the living room on the couch. He’d fetch a ball from dawn until dusk, but he was generally a couch potato which suited them both perfectly right now. Mallory intended to get a puppy or two after the wedding. She’d convince Alex by reminding him dogs were good security. “All you have to do for the wedding is turn up— and write those place name cards. The wedding planner,” who Alex had nicknamed the General for good reason, “is doing virtually everything else including arranging transportation for all the guests who are flying in. I can make any last-minute adjustments and double-check on the flowers and still go to work every day next week. Hiring that woman is the best idea you’ve ever had.” He laid his ear against her belly. “Not the best idea, but pretty inspired.” She sank her hands into his hair. “When will you be back?” “I imagine Wednesday at the latest.” He placed one large palm on her stomach and held her gaze. “I won’t take any unnecessary risks, and I won’t do anything stupid. If the child is there I will either figure out a way for the legat to get involved.” The legat was the FBI’s official presence in a foreign country. “Or I’ll sneak them away when no one is looking and bring her, and Jane, back to the States.” Alex kissed her stomach again. She knew he was impatient to meet the newest member of their family. “I’m not sure the daughter— Taylor— will remember her mother after four years.” Mallory’s heart clenched, and her hand went to where their baby was kicking her low ribs. Alex linked their fingers. She already felt overprotective. The idea of someone stealing her baby… She swallowed hard. This was important. Jane Sanders had always seemed a little aloof, and no wonder. Her child had been stolen and the fact it was by the father made it no less heartbreaking for the mother. Mallory touched Alex’s lips. “Don’t be late for the wedding. Promise?” Silver eyes met hers. “I promise.”
