“I wanted you to remember me on your own. If you didn’t, I wasn’t sure you’d ever believe me.”
“Why the hell wouldn’t I?” Josh asked.
“Because what we did…” Paige hesitated, unsure how to explain her own fears. “I know we probably weren’t the first operatives to…have sex on a mission. I’d be a fool to believe that, considering the stresses. But you were always so damned hard-line about personal involvement.”
“Until that night,” he concluded for her. “Why would I have changed my mind?”
She had wondered that a thousand times. Once for every day he’d been missing. Because she had always remembered what had been in his eyes when he laid his gun on the ground and looked up at her. She had always known there was some connection between that look and his subsequent disappearance. And the most obvious was that he had known he would never see her again.
