“Yeah, time to get dressed and eat,” she throws at me.
I cock an eyebrow at her. “You really wanna eat before we gotorturesomeone?”
She stares at me like I’m an alien. “I haven’t had breakfast. I need my energy.”
I let out a full belly laugh. “Just when I think I have you figured out, you throw a curve ball.”
“Eh, you’ll figure me out someday.” She winks at me.
By one o’clock, we’re dressed, fed, and on our way up to the barn to have some fun with Rodrigo and Eduardo. We take my truck to the barn because of the weather. I don’t want Marley colder than she needs to be. I park the truck by Ratchet’s bike.
“We’re gonna have to do what we can to get information out of these assholes,” I tell Marley.
“Give me the kill shots and I’ll be fine.” Her words shouldn’t shock me, but they do.
I grab her hand. “If at any point you wanna leave, just let me know. Got it?”
“I will, I promise.”
We climb out of the truck, meeting at the front. I wrap my arm around her shoulders and together we walk inside.
