Broken Play (22 page)

“Like hell,” Ty shouted. “Get in.”

“I'm a cop, genius,” she hissed at him. “Give me the fucking keys. Two months of undercover work is about to escape in that fucking red Mustang over there, and there is no way in hell I'm going to let you get in the way. So move it, or I shoot it.”

Ty looked over and saw that the guy she'd been with was jumping into a Mustang that barely slowed as it passed him. The car was headed out the opposite side of the parking lot from all the cops. “Why isn't anyone else chasing him?” he asked incredulously.

“Because nobody listens to me,” she said in disgust. She ripped the keys out of his hand and climbed into his car. She took the time to pull off her heels and toss them out into the parking lot. Ty took advantage of her distraction to throw himself over the hood of his black Porsche and climb into the passenger seat. “Get the fuck out,” she yelled at him.

“No,” he said, trying to sound calm even though his heart was about to pound out of his chest. “My car. And you need backup.”

At that she barked out a laugh and threw the car into gear. “And that's you?” she asked, peeling out of the parking space after her quarry.

“Yes, ma'am,” he shouted over the squeal of tires. “Usually I call the play, but tonight I'm going to follow your lead.”
