Chapter 36

??Are you okay??? asked Landon. Even though he knew what Trey had said, he wanted to hear it from Nina.

??I will be.?? She gripped the wheels of the wheelchair and grimaced as she moved herself close enough to the bed to take Landon??s hand.

??Your wrist???? He rubbed his thumb along the knuckles of her uninjured hand.

??Isn??t broken,?? she said. ??It??s bruised and sprained. It??ll heal.??

??I wish I could have contacted you somehow, let you know something was in the works,?? said Landon.

??I thought about that afterwards. I wasn??t even sure you??d get the message. I knew you were a cop and it was an undercover thing. I didn??t even know if the number you gave me was still active.??

??My boss never deactivated it, obviously. I think it was almost more of an oversight on his part. I??m not exactly a cop either. I??m DEA.??
