Blurred – Brilynn Oneal

“No, Nova. I didn’t say that. I want you to be careful. This is too big for one person to handle. You’re attached to him, and I get it. I kind of am, too, knowing what I know now. But you can’t save everyone, and you can’t do it alone.” “I don’t want to do it alone,” I whisper back. “Tell Dec.” I sigh. “I will.” I find Owen in the kitchen again.

He has his shirt off. Of course. Music blares from a speaker in the corner of the kitchen, and he hums along. He doesn’t notice me right away, and I pull myself up onto the island counter and pluck a blueberry from the bowl and pop it in my mouth. The muscles in his back ripple as he stirs something and moves along with the music. When he finally turns and notices me, he jumps and clutches his chest. “Fuck, Nora,” he says, breathless.

I can’t help the ruthless smile. “Didn’t want to disturb your hard work.” He watches my mouth and drops his hand. His gaze narrows. “Or you wanted to enjoy the view for a little while longer.” I roll my eyes. “Why would I have to sneak a peek when you willingly flaunt yourself every second of every day?”

He gapes at me, and I laugh. “Two can play this game, Mr. Mills.” He shakes his head, putting down the spoon that appears to be covered in tomato sauce. “Once again, you surprise me, Miss Riley.” Shrugging, I pop another blueberry in my mouth. I go to jump off the counter, but he stops me. “How’s the arm?” he asks, serious now. “Fine.” He walks to the island, picks up a small tin, and hands it to me.

“My grandmother makes it. Helps with healing.” Staring at the container, I twist the lid off. The smell hits me—honey and beeswax and flowers. It’s divine. “Let me help you,” he says, reaching for my arm. I must be in some sort of shock because I do without objection.

He pulls my arm out of my sleeve, careful not to expose my chest. Unwrapping the gauze bandage, he dips his long fingers in the balm. The smell of it grows more intense, and I subconsciously inhale deeper.

How everything could have gone to shit so quickly and unexpectedly grates at me. I grind my teeth and take cover behind a market stall that sells jewelry.

The vendor fled minutes ago. Bullets fly everywhere, their target unknown to me. This was clearly a setup. But how? For whom? I’d never screwed up an assignment as thoroughly as I’ve messed up this one. My civilian casualty count was five until today. That number has jumped by more than thirty, if I had to guess. “Fuck!” I whisper to myself, trying to determine my next course of action. If I want to get out of here alive, I need to make it to the rendezvous spot, but it lies between me and a dozen bullets.

I’m not much of a crier, but if I were, this whole situation would have me sobbing.
