Excerpt from Deadly Pursuit by
Misty Evans
Taking two steps back, she pointed the gun
at his chest. “Emilio Paloma-Londano, you are under arrest by the United States
government for charges relating to the organization and running of the San
Diego Mafia.” She took a deep breath and one more step back as she watched
Emilio’s face transform from utter confusion to pure anger. “Drop to your
stomach and put your hands behind your head.”
He stood stock still, effectively refusing
to lie down on the ground, but all hell broke loose around them. FBI, DEA, and
local police officers emerged from the nearby lifeguard house and descended
from the boardwalk. Spotlights came on, illuminating Emilio, still standing,
and Celina, who managed to return her dress straps to her shoulders while never
moving the gun sight from Emilio’s heart. Their eyes locked on each other and
though he didn’t move or say a word, Celina felt the intensity of his hatred
penetrating every cell of her body.
Special Agent Quarters came up beside her
and took the Glock from her grip while she watched two police officers force
Emilio face down in the sand. Within seconds, his hands were cuffed and his
rights read. She stood there shaking, teeth chattering, arms crossed over her
very wet, cold breasts. The officers raised Emilio back to a standing position,
and again the dark eyes she knew well snapped to hers. Again she saw the depth
of his anger. And then he took her by surprise.
He ignored Quarters and spoke to someone
behind Celina. “Give her my jacket so she can cover herself.”
As Celina watched Emilio be led away, a soft
warmth fell over her shoulders and enveloped her. Instinctively she pulled it
closer, stuffed her arms into the sleeves. It was not Emilio’s jacket, but a
red Billabong sweatshirt.
She smiled as she turned to face Cooper.
“Thank you,” she said, forgetting the past few months of fear and manipulation
the moment she saw his face.
It was a beautiful face. Not in the pretty
L.A. boy actor way. Those types of faces she saw all the time and they were
fake. No, Cooper’s was a rugged beauty, deeply tanned and handsome. It was the
controlled face of a man who lived with danger every day for several decades.
His gaze was as serious as always as he
stared down at her. “You all right?”
“Better than fine.” Now that you’re here.
Every time she stood next to the DEA agent, she felt like she’d just downed a
triple mocha latte with whipped cream. Warm, buzzed, and ready for seconds.
“How’d I do?”
He was silent for a moment, studying her.
“You went off the rez and we need to talk about that, but…you did okay, kid.”
Celina’s smile faltered. Kid? Kid? “I’m not
a kid, Cooper. I’m twenty-four years old.” She held his stern gaze. “I did
better than okay and you know it. I just nailed Emilio Londano.”
Said out loud, those words seemed to vibrate
in the air. The moon smiled down at her and she drew her first fearless breath
in months. She felt a sudden hot rush in her veins, a tingling sensation
shooting through every cell of her body.
Letting her head fall back on her shoulders,
she let it come, this rush of accomplishment instead of fear. It roared through
her.
Laughing up at the sky, she sang out, “I did
it! I arrested the Lord of the Cartel World!” She took a few steps back,
staring at the sky, and held out her arms. Twirling, she let her herself enjoy
the sweet tingle of relief and success racing through her body.
