Chapter 47

Peering around the corner, even from a strained angle, Nathan could finally see the woman they believed to be their quarry.

She was sitting in an armchair, her long dark hair loose around her shoulders, and wearing jewel tone colors that made her skin seem to glow. It looked as if she was talking to someone, but Nathan couldn’t see the full extent of the living room to tell who else might be inside.

A few minutes passed of a conversation Nathan was unable to hear, and then the woman got up and left the room.

Nathan crouched low, debating whether or not he should sneak closer around the front to keep the woman in his sights, or simply trust that Sasha and Jim would pick up the slack.

“Nathan!”

Walter’s voice had Nathan whipping around, shocked when he discovered the dark haired woman standing barely a foot from him. He had seen her inside the house only moments before, but somehow she had managed to sneak up on him.
