Chapter Six

Monday morning Reganne walked outside, dressed for work. Balancing travel cup full of freshly brewed coffee, purse and tote she carried all of her work in, she hit the key fob button to unlock her car. The skies were overcast, heavy, dark clouds building in the west. The news channel had predicted a storm tonight. Looked like it was rolling in early.

Fumbling for the door handle, she pulled it open, tossed her bags in, then slid behind the wheel. She was about to push the start button when she saw a folded, pink note trapped beneath her wiper.

A rock settled in her stomach as she leaned out and snatched the note off the windshield. Forcing her hands not to shake, she unfolded it. Written in a familiar script were three lines. A poem. Not one she’d read before. But she recognized the script, the flow of words, the message.

Carsen had found her.

The note fell out of her hand, drifted to the floor to rest next to her heel. Reganne clamped a hand over her mouth. God help her, he’d found her. She hadn’t imagined seeing him in the crowd or at her window this weekend. He had been there.

And he’d seen her with Grey.

Drawing in a deep breath to calm her nerves, she brought her car to life. From past experience she knew to keep the note, even if it wasn’t threatening. Well, to the average reader. To her, those three simple lines represented underlying danger.

Tucking the note in her purse, she drove toward the office, her mind reeling. She’d done everything right. Even went as far to have her name left off the practice advertisements. No one would find her in the phone book, online, or on the sign out front of the office. Word of mouth had built her patient list. She gave the term ‘silent partner’ new meaning. Neither of her partners had questioned her request to be left out of the publicity. They were too busy to worry about why she didn’t want to be promoted.

But, no one could completely disappear or erase their existence unless they went into Witness Protection. Since Carsen had never been convicted of anything, that hadn’t been an option for her. No one believed the charming, prestigious neurosurgeon could be responsible for stalking her and putting her in the hospital for three days. No one believed her.

This time she refused to play the victim. She wouldn’t run again. No more new starts. She knew this man and how he operated. That gave her the advantage. Granted, she’d never thought he’d chase her, but that had been her first mistake. Thinking a man like that could ever let her go was her second.

Not again. This time she would be smart.

Even if the man did scare the life out of her.

The day flew by. She barely had time for lunch, let alone to think about the consequences of Carsen finding her. However, she did have a certain Navy SEAL on her mind.
