Author: Kristen Lee 2020-09-25 08:28:10
It took maybe quarter of an hour and two of the tart hard candies, but Teri did feel better. Significantly better than she had in the previous few days and with any of the other morning sickness remedies she’d tried.
That Estelle. She’s a wonder, she mused. Still, Teri eased herself first to a sitting position, then to her feet in slow increments.
Overnight the mercury had plummeted into the forties, and she shive

Antiquarian's Precious Find [1] Trojan Horse
Soon to come from a new story, In Our Midst:Marcus opened the door to the River Oaks apartment he shared with his girlfriend to discover her pacing slowly before the floor to ceiling living room windows, her cellphone pressed to her ear. Beside him, the apartment’s security system beeped a warning, announcing his return, and she glanced over at him, flashing a heart-stopping smile.Closing the door, he silenced the alert, and tossed his keys onto the granite top kitchen island beside an old cardboard storage box with a lopsided pile of papers tipping towards the floor on the other. Miria had brought work home again.Straightening the stack of manilla folders and legal pads next to the box, tucking in misaligned pages and unfolding creases, Marcus waited as she finished her conversation.“No. I’m not getting in the middle of this.”

“We need shelter.” Crouching next to Jim with Teri clutched against his chest, Marcus glanced around, then contacted Frank Shepard. “This is Agent Leigh,” he shouted over the whining wind. “I’ve recovered Teri Munro.”Above the noise, Shepard replied, “Where’s Johansen, Marcus?”“Dead. He fell over a cliff at my current coordinates. I’ll give you the details later. How far are we from an extraction point?”Hearing that question, Jim lifted his head, alert for the answer. “Mile and a half. As the crow flies,” Shepard’s garbling voice grated over the radio. “It’s the closest we can get a vehicle.”“Not in this.” Jim shook his head. “None of us are dressed for it. Tell h
Antiquarian's Precious Find [29] Hunted
Nick had considered himself fit and healthy, but this was a supreme physical effort for which he was unprepared. Besides that he’d been up nearly twenty-four hours straight in preparation for snatching her, lugging even Teri’s petite body over his shoulders for miles and juggling two backpacks and the shotgun was making it difficult to manage passage on the rough terrain. Especially without leaving much of a discernable trail.Plus, he still had another miserable mile to go just to reach the canyon’s end. Though the climb out was traversable, it was still over steeply sloping topography, slippery with loose rock, pebbles and sand. Over such treacherous ground, he’d be unable to carry the unconscious woman. Since there was absolutely no way he was leaving his prize behind, the sooner Teri woke the better.He’d seen Erikson attempt to land the small aircraft and have to take off again, bu
Antiquarian's Precious Find [28] Crosshairs
Jim had hoped to be home before Teri left for work, but the location of one of the undocumented sites had been mapped for them incorrectly by the reporting individual. Unwilling to chance when there’d next be a break in the weather, he’d spent several frustrating minutes searching from the air, circling at decreasing elevations around the given landmark before he’d spotted it.Making a wide circle, he angled the plane northeast towards Moab and the airport, his thoughts wandering. It needled him, what Teri’d done, setting up her own defenses above and beyond what the FBI had. Okay, so it wasn’t that she’d felt she’d needed to, even if that did mean neither of them had much faith in the FBI and other local authorities, he acknowledged mentally. It wasn’t even that she hadn’t told him.It wasn’t any of that.She’d designed her a

Oh, sweet submissive Teri! Nick almost groaned aloud.Timid as a hare, she shambled towards him with hesitant steps, much to his delight, her slim hand still clutching her phone, holding it like a magical weapon between them, her face drawn in a frightened grimace. When she was close enough to grab, he snatched the device, tossing it towards the lifeless contractors.With another trembling whimper, she tried to bolt away, and thrilled with how perfectly Teri fed him his every desire, he gave chase. Through he tripped over the dog doing it, Nick caught her by the slim ankle, bringing her crashing to the ground with a hard whump and pained cry.Releasing the shotgun to catch at her with both hands, he half-dragged half-crawled up her petite body, pressing his crushing weight down on her and pinning her scrambling hands behind her neck.“Attempt to do that again a
Antiquarian's Precious Find [26] Concoctions
Good morning, Gorgeous.”Jim leaned over Teri and kissed her temple sweetly, dropping a handful of Estelle’s magic morning sickness candy cures on the bedside table where she could reach them and she sighed gratefully. “Good morning. And thank you.”Reaching for one, she unwrapped and popped it into her mouth, eager to have done with the nausea.“I’m walking Zoe over to Patrick and Abby’s. Abby’s going to take her to school with Beth.”Rolling to her back, Teri stared up at him. “What did our oh-so pleasant escort have to say about that?”Shoving his hands in his jean pockets, Jim shrugged, wearing a lopsided grin. “Not much. They were less pleased to find out I’m going out to the airfield.”Teri’s brows lifted inquiringly, promp

Lay on your left side. Lay on your right side. Ginger. Lemon. Watermelon. Dry biscuits. Peppermint. Magnesium supplements. Gah! None of it works. Why does none of it work? Teri moaned to herself, trying to lie still, breathe, and not vomit. Morning sickness had been nowhere near

“Are you done yet?”Teri startled as Jim banged on the bathroom door again, nearly dropping the pregnancy test into the RV’s toilet. “For pity’s sake, no! I just sat down and with you hovering outside the door incessantly ba

“So this is it?” Jim glanced from the road to Teri in the passenger seat, then back. The trip to Coeur D’Alene would take about fifteen hours driving. Though they’d left that morning, Teri had driven until they’d stopped for lunch, and after he&rsqu
