Chapter 12

I awoke to the sound of my phone ringing. I rubbed my eyes and peered around my bedroom. Somehow I ended up in my bed. The last thing I remembered was being on the couch with Greyson. My ears perked when I heard his voice coming from the kitchen as he answered the phone.

I crawled out of bed and shuffled to the kitchen find Greyson at my table with his laptop. Gus was hunkered next to the laptop staring pointblank at Greyson. Greyson smiled as I entered the room. Gus grunted.

“I’ll see you in a few minutes,” Greyson said into the phone and disconnected. He turned to me. “That was Remy. He found all the bugs and he’s coming to pick me up. I have a lot on my plate today especially with David on the loose.”

I nodded and headed to the coffee maker. There was already hot coffee brewed and the smell wafting from it made me smile.

“I didn’t know you could make coffee,” I said.

He stood and crossed the distance to me. He brought me in for a warm cuddly hug making the coffee seem insignificant.

“I wasn’t born with people waiting on me.”

“What else can you do?”

“I can make an awesome omelet.”

“That’s what I wanted to hear,” I said. I dug out a pan from the bottom cupboard and handed it to him.

He chuckled. “Why don’t you shower, and I’ll make you breakfast.”

“I think I could get use to people waiting on me,” I said. “You’ve got it figured out, don’t you?”

“That’s why I make the big bucks.”

I smiled. “By the way, how did Gus climb on the table? He normally can’t jump that high.”

“He was waddling near my feet giving me an evil eye. I finally picked him up and set him on the table. He’s been vegetating there ever since.”

“You picked him up?”

“Yeah, why?”

“I can’t even pick him up.”

“Can you relay that to David the next time you talk to him? Tell him I haven’t gone one hundred percent soft yet.”

I shook my head with a grin and shuffled to the bathroom. By the time I was showered and changed, my breakfast was on the table and Remy was looming in the doorway talking to Greyson. I took a seat in front of my perfectly executed omelet and dug in.

“You weren’t kidding,” I said as I took a bite. “You make a kick ass omelet. It’s all fluffy and cheesy.”

“I told you I can do a few things.” He strolled over, kissed me on the top of the head, and picked up his laptop. “I have to go back to work. I’ll be in touch with you later about Dagor’s location. We can come up with a game plan once we know what casino he’ll be in.”

“Okay. I think I have to work with Lupier today. I should be free later.”

“You’re working with Lupier again? Even after the last performance?”

“I’ve been told I boosted the ticket sales by mooning every one and then lighting myself on fire.
