Excerpt from Saving Gabi, Cajun Connection Series, Book #4
“I could use a little more info, Boudreau.”
“Samuel wants to brief you on the case personally. What a crock! Dammit, we’re talking about my baby sister, not some stranger off the street.” Boudreau blew out a long breath, hands clenched around the steering wheel until his knuckles shone white. There was a not-so-subtle shift in the air, anger radiating off the other man in almost visible waves.
“I forgot you have a sister. She’s in trouble?”
“Depends on who you’re talking to. You ask her, she’d say we’re blowing things out of proportion.”
Dylan chose his words carefully. “But you’re not buying it?”
“No. Neither is anybody else at Carpenter Security.”
“Gotcha.” He stretched his legs out, uncomfortable after the long flight. Confined spaces like airplanes tended to bring back bad memories, and now sitting in a car—he’d much rather be walking or running, expending all his pent-up energy. “We headed to the office now?”
Etienne shook his head, glancing in the rearview mirror and changing lanes. “No. We’re going to meet at my dad’s house.” He paused for a moment. “Less chance of being interrupted there. Plus, it’s remote…and private.”
Dylan pondered the implication of the other’s words. Sounded all super-secret and on the down low. He didn’t need intrigue or spy stuff. He’d had enough subterfuge to last a lifetime. But he’d play along—for now. He owed Carpenter, and Dylan Roberts always paid his debts.
“Your dad’s Gator Boudreau.” It wasn’t a question, merely a statement of fact. He’d heard an earful about the man from Ranger Boudreau, back when they’d both served together in the Navy. They’d worked several jobs together, part of their SEAL experience, though they’d been on different teams. Apparently, Gator Boudreau was some kind of local legend. Ranger had told him the people of New Orleans treated Gator like he walked on water.
“Yeah, and let me tell you, we’re damned lucky he’s out of the country right now. If he even caught a whisper Gabi was in trouble…well, let’s just say Hurricane Katrina would seem tame in comparison.”
Dylan chuckled at the description. “Tell me about Gabi.”
A tender, thoughtful expression crossed Etienne’s face. It was clear by the light in his gaze he adored his baby sister. He’d seen the same affectionate look on Ranger’s face when he’d spoken about her.
“She’s the youngest, of course. Only girl in a passel of boys, so she grew up part tomboy and part pampered princess. She can outrun, outshoot, and out fish just about anybody in the parish. Or she used to, until she went to college. Could cuss like a longshoreman down on the Mississippi docks, although she’s pretty much cleaned up that part of her act. She attended Tulane. After graduation took some time off with one of her friends and traveled throughout Europe.”
“What makes you feel like she’s in trouble?”
Etienne sighed. “It probably should wait until we get to the meeting. Besides, I’ve been pretty much kept in the dark about everything, so I’m probably not the guy to be giving you the facts. I know something or somebody has been bothering her, and I’m going to find out who it is and end it.”
