********************
Katy walked the brightly illuminated wooden staircase towards a vast decking area to one side of the house. Her secure Blackphone had been buzzing in her bag throughout the journey from the woods to Beechwood but she had studiously ignored it. She was tempted now to throw it out into the sea together with any other device that connected her to the identity she was on the brink of annihilating. Except that throwing it away might just land it on the rocks below, ready to be gathered up by Hargrave's staff and then well and then potentially cracked by his technology. She would have to keep it for now.
She was still wearing her running clothes and her legs felt weak beneath her.
When she got to the top of the staircase she was surprised to see that the deck was as homely and welcoming as a family home. She had expected something more austere from the sharply dressed and weirdly obsessive billionaire.
He was standing with his back to her on the other side of the deck taking a call.
"I thought our security was iron clad, the best there is, I don’t see how anything like this could even happen." His deep, velvet smooth voice carried easily through the evening air and sounded annoyingly familiar already. She didn't want familiarity. Not with him, not with anyone.
He turned around and stopped speaking when he saw her.
"Ms. Maldon. I'm so glad you could make it." He said with the sexiest of half smiles she could have imagined.
"You're shitting me, right?" She said.
He smiled a little more, only adding to his sexiness and then spoke into the phone.
"I'll be in touch Dale, keep me posted on the security breach."
He put the phone away and directed himself to Katy.
"Are foul language and verbal aggression part of your psychological defense mechanism Ms. Maldon? Or is that your actual personality?"
"Psychoanalyst as well as military hardware tycoon. Is there anything you aren't good at? Or is that just a massive superiority complex you have?"
He smiled. This was going to be good.
"You've been doing your homework I see."
"If you want to call a ten minute Google search homework, then yes, I did some homework. Something tells me the research you did on me took a little more than an internet connection."
"Dear oh dear, we are a bit grumpy this evening, aren't we Ms. Maldon?"
"I'm standing in the sweat pants I went for a run in three hours ago and I'm a prisoner in your, admittedly gorgeous, home; should I be singing choruses from the Sound of Music?"
"You really are something." He said with obvious pleasure. "I've never met one quite like you before."
His use of the word 'one' brought Katy back to reality. This wasn't a fantasy date with a supermodel rich enough to outbid Bill Gates, she was here under duress to stay one step ahead of the Russian Mafia, the police and the FBI, and if that wasn't enough she would soon have one of the smartest men she had ever met digging into her past for his off the wall sexual gratification.
