After Monroe was debriefed, she insisted both Shaun and Aidan go home for the night. Aidan resisted because he wanted to get back to work and find the offender now more than ever.

It didn’t matter to Aidan that the pain in his knee was taking its vengeance, but in the end, he was forced to cave.

He was spending the remainder of the night with his leg iced and propped on pillows as the EMT originally ordered. Cheyenne hadn’t said anything about his injuries, but he was sure the time would soon come—he could see it in her eyes.

Aidan had received a text an hour and a half ago from Agent Douglas saying they had brought Thomas Blake in for questioning. According to him, he’d rented the house to a man named Ron Heady.

Thomas claimed to have never met Heady personally—only over the phone.

Heady had wanted to rent the place off the books, and because Thomas loved money more than background or credit checks, he went along with it.

Douglas ran the background check and learned Heady was an eighty-three-year-old man who had died of pneumonia two years prior.

Aidan made the suggestion to Douglas to go after Jordan Blake for more questioning.

It was making sense to him that his instinct was wrong, and Jordan Blake could easily be The Carnations Killer. After all, he lied numerous times. It didn’t take much to believe he could easily use his uncle’s house to murder the women.

Aidan used the free time to watch various news stations, but primarily WJFX.

Surprisingly, Jordan Blake hadn’t been reporting anything in the last few days.

He had texted Agent Douglas to see whether or not they’d made contact with him. The answer came that Jordan seemed to have vanished. His uncle wasn’t being helpful with his nephew’s whereabouts, which made Aidan all the more suspicious.

Thomas had gone from being helpful to silent.

Did he think Jordan killed these women? Was he trying to protect him?

“Do you need anything?”

Cheyenne stepped in front of the couch where Aidan was lying and looked at him. He grasped her hand and brought it to his lips for a kiss.

“Yes,” he told her. “I need you to sit.”

She frowned. “Aidan, we’ve got to talk.”

The doorbell interrupted them, and Aidan let out a soft curse, which resulted in the famous Cheyenne glare.

“Why does it seem like every day I need to tell you not to talk that way?”

“Sorry,” he said.

Her arms crossed, she went to answer the door, and he heard her scold Shaun for not keeping himself and Aidan safe.

Shaun replied, “We are alive, aren’t we?”

Cheyenne asked which shoulder was the sore one so she could punch the other. Aidan was smiling when his friend entered the living room.

Cheyenne appeared in the doorway to announce she was going to run to the store and pick up a frozen pizza for supper. Then she asked Shaun if he’d like to stay for dinner.

After he answered that of course he would, she said her goodbyes and left.

“How are you feeling?” Shaun asked.
