righted the coffee table. It sagged at one corner where the leg had broken in their tumble.
    David’s gaze met Nate’s. His expression was grim. Suddenly, David grabbed Nate in a bear hug. His heart tattooed a rhythm as urgent as Nate’s. Words weren’t needed. He felt the same way. He wasn’t going to let anyone hurt David, and David’s silent embrace told him the same message.
    Rapid fire zips through breaking glass urged them to the floor. The outside door creaked as it swung on its hinges. A red laser danced around the room at chest level from the kitchen. Nate grabbed and squeezed David’s hand through their ragged breathing. Then letting go, he crawled to the edge of the couch, using it as a barrier. David did the same at the other end.
“Give it up, Jasper. Cizone ratted you out,” David called.
     
“The police are on the way,” Nate added.
    Nate trained his gun on the kitchen and closed bar shutters. He noted the broken glass panes in the swinging outside door. Creeping forward, he ignored David’s signal to stop. No way he’d let David take a bullet for him.
Hell, guns were Nate’s speciality.
     
“Why the girls, Jasper?”David yelled.
     
There was a thick chuckle. “Stress relief,” presumably Jasper, answered.
     
“Dealing arms getting stressful?”Nate taunted.
     
“Not for long, Giamanti . I’m about…to exterminate…the problem.” A red dot centred on Nate’s chest.
     
“Nate!” David yelled, leapt, and tackled him to the ground as the zip-pop of bullet splitting wall reached him.
     
“Where are the fucking sirens?” Nate snapped, quietly.
     
Red light slid over them as Jasper’s dark shape loomed in the kitchen passage, bigger and broader than he expected. David rolled to his feet between Nate and Jasper, his gun steady on the intruder.
     
“Don’t you fucking get shot, Rook!”
     
Sirens wailed, distracting Jasper long enough for David to fire off a shot. Jasper’s right shoulder jerked sharply. “ Sonofa bitch !”
     
“Freeze motherfucker!”
     
Attention swung to the open door. A young man, legs spread, arms raised, had Jasper in his sights. There would be no missing from the ten foot divide.
     
“Who the fuck are you?” Jasper said, swinging his firearm.
     
“My new partner,” David said. “I just decided.”
     
Jasper tensed. Nate didn’t think, he took aim and clipped the asshole’s gun hand.
     
David and the other guy pounced, taking the bleeding, screaming man down as cops swarmed through the back and now busted front doors. Lights flared to life.
     
Nate hauled David off Jasper once he was secured by several cops. He pulled David into his arms, kissing him. David kissed back, his arms circling Nate.
     
“It’s about fucking time,” Derrick said, stepping over broken glass. He tipped his head. “Who’s that?”
     
The young, dark-haired cop stepped forward, “Knight. His new partner,” he said nodding at David.
     
“Rook and Knight?You’re fucking kidding me,” Derrick barked.
     
David grinned at Nate. Derrick faded away while Nate had David in his arms.
     
David hugged him tighter. “ Wannasee a guy about a ring tomorrow?”
     
“After you recheck my measurements,” Nate answered.
     
“God, get a room,” Derrick muttered.
     
“Great idea.Hurry up and take my statement.” David took Nate’s hand, interlocking their fingers.
     
Someone snickered gleefully. Someone else whistled.
     
Looked like David would never stop being his dangerous distraction, Nate thought with a smile.
