Partner in Crime

Day Sixty-Three…

~~*****~~

Jane was surprised when Nathan entered the house leisurely while the policemen were anticipating some live action. They expected to hear some gunshots but it never happened.

"Why are you here?" Jane asked him in disbelief.

Nathan just grabbed her hand, pulling her toward the bedroom where Karina was lying unconscious.

"Don't ask. Just do what I'll say," Nathan replied to her. He closed the door and locked it. Then he sized her up from top to bottom. 'She lives up to her name,' he thought to himself. Part of him wanted to admire her for her fierce yet hot appearance. This was Phantomflake's signature image. 

Nathan extended his right hand and said, "Give me your gun and your dagger."

Jane frowned. Those were her favorite things. She wouldn't hand them over to Nathan. "No! These are mine. I'm gonna need them to escape from here."
