Chapter 21

Roman's watch showed quarter to six when he entered the house through the garage door. He was hungry, tired and damp to the bone. Then he heard Nikki laughing.

She had a great laugh. It matched her vibrant voice.

Sexy.

Sultry.

Provocative.

A rejuvenating grin transformed his weary features.

Deciding to sneak up on her, Roman shed his shoes and padded soundlessly down the hall to the den. He expected to find her curled on the sofa, enjoying a program on the TV.

The tube was on.

The sound muted.

The room—unoccupied.

Another seductive laugh tantalized his ears. Tossing his blazer and tie on the kitchen barstools, he released the top four buttons on his shirt. "Ahh...she's probably on the bedroom phone talking with the Cortlund's." However, the master bedroom also proved to be empty. Roman opened his mouth to call her name when feminine laughter became entwined with words.

Words delivered by a deep voice.

A masculine voice.

An unfamiliar voice.

Frowning, Roman long-legged it down the hall to the spare room.

The door was half closed.

The people inside could be heard but not seen.

The instant Roman's fingers curved around the door knob, he felt the insistent pressure of cold steel against his nape together with a nasal voice that droned in his ear, "Don't move or I'll blow you away."
