After six o’clock, Lincoln comes out of his office with my bouquet in one hand and his laptop bag in the other. He glances over at me.

“Good night, Nevermore.”

I look up, shooting him a look.

“Seriously? You really won’t tell me who you’re giving my flowers to?”

“They’re donations, aren’t they? I told you, they have a home. Unless, of course, they aren’t really for charity and you want to tell me who sent them.” His gaze hardens.

I glare back with arctic defiance.

“They’re for charity. The rest is none of your business.”

If he’s fazed by my challenge, he doesn’t show it. He just turns his back and starts walking.

Ugh.

For some unholy reason, curiosity eats at me like a dog with a bone.

I want to know who he’s giving my flowers to. So as soon as he gets in the elevator, I decide to do something stupid.

I get up and run for the elevator, squeezing into a corner before I mash the button just in case he’s still lingering in the lobby.

Nope. I get to the first floor just in time to see him outside, climbing into the company car as he says a few words to Louis.

I’m too late.

There’s no way I’ll catch up with him on two wheels.

But when I see a flash of yellow driving by, I just can’t help myself. I throw myself outside and gesture for the cab.

Water splashes my shins as the taxi swerves to the curb, spraying the afternoon rain puddles before stopping.

Awesome. Now that I’m drenched, I guess I’m committed.

I climb into the back seat and look around.

Lincoln is two cars ahead of us now, wedged between a sleek sports car and a service van for a cable company.

I point in front of us. “Follow that town car, please.”

The guy in the front seat laughs and looks back at me in the mirror. “Just like the movies, huh? As long as you’re not expecting me to break any traffic laws...”

“Whatever. No. Just follow them!”

I sit back, remembering to breathe. The driver’s reaction reminds me how crazy this is.

Here I am, openly stalking my lunk of a boss who gets in my face about mystery flowers and then seemingly has the perfect place for them. Not something that would rustle anybody normal.

But a normal person would run.

Far, far away from this stupid crush after the half kiss that night overlooking the city that almost detonated our entire lives.

I’m not normal, though.

I’m a freaking Poe.

So I let my brain feast on all the crazy possibilities involving Lincoln Burns and that bouquet as we drive for about fifteen minutes in slow traffic.

We pass Sweeter Grind without the town car stopping, and then wind around the city for a few more blocks.

The other end of the park, I realize.

Oof.

Was he serious about giving my flowers to the homeless? But why would Wyatt want hydrangeas?

I’m totally baffled.

“You want me to make the block before I pull in, so they don’t know you’re stalking them?” taxi driver asks, looking back at me with a nosy grin.
