By the time my team left, I was exhausted but still decided to stay up and go through everything I had on the Harpers. My heart felt heavy with thoughts of Devan and what I would say when I finally had the chance to speak with him. I was worried about his reaction, and I feared that he would reject me after he knew the truth.

I was ready to call it a night when Mike returned to my house. I opened the door, and he was holding his iPad in his hands.

“Hey, forget something?” I asked.

“More like discovered something after I left.”

“What happened?”

I looked over at his iPad, and he showed me what he discovered. Before I moved to this house, I had my remote team wire the house and connect up to our servers. If anything or anyone breached the perimeter of the security measures I had in place, we would be alerted to it. I’d been so preoccupied with Devan and all that I discovered when I went to Arizona, I hadn’t had time to review anything else.

“Fuck, who the hell is that?” I said as I looked down at the grainy screen on the iPad that Mike was holding, but I couldn’t make out the figure. Once we were inside, I played back the video feed on the bigger monitor I had in the spare bedroom. Once the image came into focus, I balled up my fists to my side.

“Who is it?” asked Mike.

“It’s my worst fear come true. It’s our target in question, the man who has stolen my fucking heart. That’s Devan Knight!”

“Shit! How the hell did he know where you lived?”

“Come on, Mike. Are you that dense? He’s been here to my home, or did you forget about what I did last Saturday night?”

“Okay, stupid question. I’m sorry. What are you going to do now?”

“Fuck! This can’t be happening. He wasn’t supposed to find out this way, and the bigger question is how much does he know?”

“One way to find out. Rewind the feed.”

I brought back the feed to the time my team arrived earlier at my house. An hour probably went by, and then his car came into focus. The next screen showed Devan walking up the stairs to my front door with his hand mid-air, and then suddenly stopping. He stepped back, but from what I could gather on the screen, he definitely looked as if something caught his attention. Minutes later, he fled the porch. He didn’t show up again on the feed until I walked out with Mike, Jonah, and Marcy. As I walked back up the stairs, a dark figure emerged from the shadows, and it was Devan. He looked shattered and destroyed, believing I had betrayed him.

“There it is. He knows and probably hates your ass,” Mike bluntly said.

“Gee, you think? Get back to Seattle and monitor the Harpers as we discussed. In light of this new development, tell Marcy to cancel tomorrow’s meeting with them and just say that I am following up on a new lead and will be in touch as soon as I can.
