She scowled.
He grinned.
Giving up, she sighed. "I don't even know your name."
"Leese Phelps. The big guy up front-"
"You're both big." She peered toward Justice. "But yeah, you're gargantuan. Justice, right?"
"Yes, ma'am."
A dimple appeared in her cheek. "I like your style, Justice." Sitting back again, she turned to Leese. "Credentials?"
A little late, but at least she finally wanted to see them. Leese removed his folded leather holder and flipped it open to show his ID.
She studied it longer than necessary, looking from the photo to him to the photo again. "Okay, so you're really a bodyguard."
"You had doubts?"
"Sure."
By the second she became more of an enigma. "And still you went to sleep?"
"I was seriously depleted and needed the rest. Besides, what was I supposed to do? Try to fight my way free?"
Justice snorted.
"Exactly." As they pulled up in the line to buy food, her stomach rumbled. "Besides, even if I was a hulk like you two, I'm beat and I'm hungry. Fighting about the inevitable didn't seem worth it."
"Inevitable?" Leese asked.
"You were taking me, regardless of what I had to say about it. Right?"
What did she think? That he was holding her hostage? He was about to explain when it became their turn at the order window. Justice took and shared her food preferences, then ordered for himself and Leese too. Once they had two big bags of food, they drove away again.
Catalina sniffed the air. "Wow, that smells good."
"We're a block away from the hotel. Before we get there, you should understand something."
She awkwardly pulled on her coat, working around the fastened seat belt, b.u.mping Leese a few times. "What's that?"
"I'm not holding you against your will."
One of her brows lifted.
"I'm here to keep you safe."
"So you've said. But if I chose to leave?"
He gave her the truth. "I'd follow."
