The moment Carter bursts through the door, I rise from the chair.

His features are tight with anger and worry, and he first walks over to Jamie, inspecting her sleeping face and pressing a kiss to her forehead before turning to me.

“What the hell is going on at Trinity?”

“We’ve brought in the police after we found hidden cameras in her old suite, but there’s no way of knowing for sure whether they were placed in the room before or after she moved in. I’m arranging private guards for Jamie. Right now, the hospital is running tests. The police have also sent what’s left of the smoothies Jamie drinks for testing.” I tell Carter everything I know.

Crossing his arms over his chest, he shakes his head as he looks down at Jamie again. “The minute she wakes up, I’m taking her home.”

His words shouldn’t surprise me, but they do.

Not liking the idea of being separated from Jamie, I say, “That might not solve the problem. If this person is serious about hurting Jamie, they might just follow her to New York.”

There’s a painful look of frustration on Carter’s face. “How many guards will she have?”

“As many as it takes to keep her safe,” I answer. All I want to do is lock her in a room until we’ve dealt with the bastard, but that would be insane.

Carter seems to think about something, then says, “Rhett’s father-in-law is a retired Navy Seal. I’m going to give him a call and ask for help because I don’t trust the police to catch this psycho in time. Hayden and his teammate, Max, have dealt with situations like this one before.”

I’m caught by surprise and feel a slither of relief. “That would help a hell of a lot.”

I watch as Carter pulls out his phone and dials a number, then he says, “Hey, Rhett. Sorry, I know it’s late. Jamie’s been drugged again. I’m at the hospital. Can you do me a favor and give Hayden a call? Ask whether he and Max can lend us a hand?”

Carter listens for a moment, then replies, “Thanks. I appreciate it. I’ll keep you up to date if anything happens here.”

As he cuts the call, movement from Jamie has us both stepping forward. When she opens her eyes, she blinks up at us a couple of times before glancing around the room.

Confusion masks her face for a moment before panic tightens her features. “What happened?” Pain flashes in her eyes as she slowly sits up.

“How are you feeling?” I ask, wanting to know if I should call a nurse.

“It feels like I have one hell of a hangover.” She looks from Carter to me, then asks, “It happened again, didn’t it?”

“What’s the last thing you remember from last night? I ask.

She thinks a little, and bringing her hand to her face, she rubs her eyes. “Ah… we were sitting in the living room.”

“You had a smoothie, and on the way to the studio for a piano lesson, you started to show symptoms of being drugged,” I bring her up to date.
