wanted? Well he had another thing coming, David would never submit and neither would I.
    “You can’t take any risks, Carrie, not now…”
    “I’m not going to, but I won’t have you leaving me in the dark again. I want to know everything that’s happening from now on. You won’t leave me out of the loop again.”
    “Why are you so determined to do this? Why won’t you let me handle it, I can do this… For both of us.” There was an edge to David’s voice that told me I needed to tread carefully.
    That whatever I would say next would either push us further apart or draw us together, closer than ever.
    “I know you can but, David, can’t you see? They tried to take something from me, she’s your daughter but it’s my body that is nurturing her, giving her life and they tried to quench it. If they had succeeded…” I trailed off the thought was almost too much to even contemplate.
    And the fear of her loss still hung over my head. The doctor’s words rang in my ears, we weren’t out of the woods yet… She wasn’t safe yet…
    “All the more reason to let me do it.”
    I shook my head and stared down at the place where our hands were joined together.
    This was the man I loved, the man I wanted to spend my life with, the man I had pledged my very soul to. If I couldn’t make him understand my reasoning for wanting to get the revenge myself then how could I ever hope to achieve beating the Banks?
    “If something had happened to the baby, David, I would be the one to blame it would have been my body that failed her.”
    “It would have been their fault,” he said, interrupting me.
    “But that’s not how I see it. This is what I feel, it might not be particularly logical, and it might not even be accurate but it’s what I feel deep down inside and nothing is going to change that.”
    “And I don’t suppose anything is going to change your mind either?”
    Giving him a wry smile I shook my head. “You know I can’t be swayed, this is what I want. I want to destroy them and I want to do it right alongside you.”
    David fell silent and I knew from the faraway look in his eyes that he was deep in thought.
    He wouldn’t share his thoughts with me, I knew him well enough to be certain about that fact. But once he was good and ready his true intentions would become clear.
    “Fine, we’ll do this together. None of this was your fault, and I don’t really understand how you could blame yourself for something you couldn’t control but…” he trailed off and turned in his seat to meet my gaze. “I know what it’s like to feel compelled to do something and I won’t take that away from you.”
    “Thank you,” I said, tears making my vision blurry.
    “Anyway, I know if I said no, you’d just go and do it regardless. At least this way I can help protect you. I can finally do my job.”
    His voice had a bitter tone to it.
    I knew he blamed himself and no matter how unfounded that belief was I knew no amount of me trying to persuade him would change his mind on the matter.
    David had a one track mind, and there was nothing on this earth that would knock him from it once he locked onto his target.
    “So where do we start?” I asked, sliding a little higher in the bed.
    “Well, you start with rest, I’ll get onto my contacts and see if they have any information on the Banks’ whereabouts.”
    “David, I…” He cut me off and pressed his finger to my lips.
    “I know, we’re doing this together but nothing much is going to happen straight away so you may as well take this opportunity to recover. To give our little fighter a chance to catch her breath. I promise as soon as I know something I will tell you.”
    I peered into his eyes, searching for some sign that maybe he wasn’t being completely honest with me but I couldn’t see any signs of deception.
    Finally I nodded and dropped back against the pillows, a long sigh escaping me as I let my eyes drift shut.
    The last thing I wanted to do was
