I won't lie to you. You've got a tracker onanyway. You can findanytime." She didn't give him a chance to respond. She flagged down a cab that had just dropped someone off, jumped in, and left.

Sierra stood by the window and watched his car disappear, finally letting out a small breath.
Realizing how tense she'd been, Sierra froze for a second.
In the past, Johnathan had always made her feel safe. This was the first the'd made her feel suffocated and anxious.
