The Assassin’s Billionaire Bodyguard – Chapter 49
Cam Torres dressed in camo in the early evening hours with the sunset behind him was a sexy beast and Isabella had to remind herself more than once he was not her fiancé on this mission. He was her commander but damned if she didn’t want to throw him behind a tree and have her way with him.
Only once since they’d approached the giant house in the middle of nowhere had he treated her differently with the guys motioning for her to get behind him. She had done it but kicked the back of his knee when nobody was looking and gave him an angry look.
Now she was nearing a clearing with Erik ahead of her and Sly off to her left. They were coming towards the driveway of the house. They had not parachuted in since they had been able to drive most of the way in from their rendezvous spot. Cam had contacts everywhere and had favors called in. They had a chopper waiting for them once they grabbed this douchebag. They wanted him alive, which was something Isabella didn’t understand, but apparently the DEA wanted to charge him as a signal to others they were going to find them all and bring them to justice.

She pushed up a window and crawled inside as the sound of rapid fire on the jungle echoed around. She tried not to think if he was in the line of fire.

He had his fist up to pound on the door again and she snapped up and caught him in the throat with her fist. “Hey, it’s the guy who hit the girl.” She announced to anyone listening, “sorry boss, he has to go.” As he dropped to his knees gasping over his broken trachea, she used her blade and slit his throat stepping over him.

Had you collapsed the tunnel instead of just locking it, he’d be back already. Instead, we either must go in and drag him out or wait for him to come back. Extraction is now two minutes out. What are we doing?” She lifted her gun and fired over the head of one Cam’s men at a guy who had gingerly poked his head around a corner near the top of the balcony.
