A movement outside caught Hawk’s attention. The men had found the cabin.

“We need to go. Get your coats, leave the duffel behind. We’re heading out the back.”

“The back?” The confusion in Jillian’s green gaze morphed into fear. “They’re here?”

He nodded. Keeping Jillian in front of him, he covered their backs as he guided them into the woods. Hawk continued sweeping his gaze over the area, looking for signs the hostiles were near.

When they reached the cluster of bushes, he carved out a small space with his hands and drew Jillian down. “Stay here. I’ll be back soon.”

She clutched at his arm. “Don’t leave us,” she begged.
