Chapter 6

As the looming hour approached, Serena fought the nervousness she was experiencing, trying not to show it outwardly, but Tanner could smell it on her.

After hastily eating lunch, her stomach in knots, she spread her legs and arms so Tanner could spray the hunter concealer all over her, then she did the same to Tanner.

“Ready?” he asked.

“Yeah, let’s do this.” She thought he looked like he’d hoped she might have changed her mind. She wasn’t giving this up for anything.

They drove over in the rental car and parked nearby. “I’ll knock on the door to ensure they really have gone on the stringray snorkeling trip. If no one answers, I’ll use the lock pick and you can join me.”

“When he’s on trips, he always hides his laptop under the sofa.”

“All right. See you in a minute.” Tanner gave her a hug and kiss, and then he walked to the door with purpose. The cabanas were separated by vegetation, and he didn’t hear anyone about. He knocked on the door, and when no one answered, he texted Serena.

He pulled out his lock pick. As soon as he opened the door, Serena hurried to join him. “So far, so good,” he said.

But anything could go wrong.

She quickly checked underneath the floral couch, but it sat so high, it probably didn’t look like a safe place for Harold to hide his laptop. “Not here,” she whispered.

“Checking the bedroom.”

“He wouldn’t have taken it with him. Not snorkeling. So it’s got to be here somewhere.” She looked in the kitchen. “Not in here.”

He looked in the two bedrooms, smelled that both Harold and Velvet were staying together, which was no surprise there, but smelled they’d had sex here, or sexual activity. “The safe in one of the closets is too small for a laptop, unless it’s really small.”

She joined him. “I can’t imagine he would have locked it in the rental car.” She eyed the safe. “You’re right. The safe is too small for his laptop. Unless he bought a new one for traveling. I can’t figure him out. He always had plenty of money. Why would he have stolen mine?”

“Some people never have enough.”

Harold’s clothes were neatly hung up in the closet, Velvet’s piled on a chair, but Tanner noticed the suitcase behind his shoes. “In there maybe?”

Serena grabbed the mostly empty black bag and set it on the bed. An airline security–approved lock protected it. She used her own key that would work on it and the lock clicked open. After she unzipped the bag, she found a leather case, his laptop. She pulled his laptop out and set it on the desk in the bedroom.

Tanner appeared as relieved as she was that it was there. Now if she could only get into his computer. “I’ll watch for any sign of them returning,” Tanner said.

“Okay, good. I’m into his computer.”

“Anything yet?”

“He’s so predictable. He has all his bank account links set up on his toolbar for one-click access. I’m trying the variations of his passwords to see if I can—holy cow.
