Chapter 10

Breaking News. The police manhunt has been called off. More information will be available later.

Rocco’s heart stopped fast in his chest. What had he just heard?

If he was ten years older, he’d probably be dead from the words.

Off? That made no sense.

Unless this was a trap.

The police must know where he was and any second he’d be carted back to prison.

Why else would there be such a lie on the radio?

Behind him Mica clapped. He turned as she said, “Well, that’s good news.”

The zaps in his heart were more like warning shots now. The danger being over for him couldn’t be true. He swallowed. “Why do you say that?”

Her black dress clung to her long legs in all the right ways as she strode toward him. This time the spike in his pulse was entirely her doing. Her high heels clicked against the marble floor. She reached the counter and let her hand fall right beside his. “They probably caught who they were looking for or realized their own mistake. Either way we’re not going to be bothered, so let’s turn it off.”

Mistake? He’d stormed out of the prison. He’d waded through the sewer after digging a tunnel, and none of that was on accident.

If he stayed much longer in one place, chances of him being caught rose greatly.

If he left, did he walk right into their trap?

His mind raced. Maybe it was better to stay and enjoy his last moments at the chalet with Mica.

Since arriving here, his life felt like it had turned around, like Mica was his personal angel, when that was impossible.

She didn’t know the truth about him. She wanted him physically from what she’d said and done, but he’d avoided that because he didn’t want to disappoint her when she discovered his secret.

He placed both hands in front of him and glanced at the floor. “Mica, there is something I should tell you.”

“Confessions are for dessert.” She patted him on his muscular chest covered in a gray Armani suit.

At least he’d wear nice things for the rest of his time here. He picked up the bowls of beef stew and walked them into the dining room, but as he looked around, he didn’t see the baby. “How’s Jacob?”

If he stayed at the chalet, he might as well enjoy his next few moments, however long they stretched out to be. So he passed her and brushed against her sexy shoulder as she said, “He’s sleeping. Personally I think he’s cute, but I’m super biased… what are you doing?”

He flipped the radio to FM and played with the tuning as he said, “Finding the right… here, this will work.” A woman’s voice with a slow song. Perfect. He’d dream about this night for the rest of his years behind bars. He returned to Mica’s side and held out his hand. “Will you dance with me?”

She clutched his palm and flipped her hair. “You want to dance?”

In school and in the movies, one hand went to her side and one hand was out holding her palm.
