Destiny jolted up when the door of her cell started to grate across the floor. Detective Caleb Forest stood outside waiting, and he'd never looked so good. From those wide shoulders to his long legs, the man looked good in a suit. Particularly if he'd come to spring her.

As she hurried forward, she couldn't help the idiotic grin on her face. Oh, please, please, Lord, let him be my ticket out of here.

She shrugged her shoulders. "Well?"

"This way, Destiny."

He pointed for her to precede him down the corridor, and she moved past. Why couldn't he just say it? Did he have to keep her in suspense? Her momentary high spirits took a decided downturn as they walked toward the door of freedom, but she shook her head as if to ward off doubt. Just because he hadn't said anything in this horribly public forum didn't mean he didn't have good news. Besides, any time spent away from the other detainees was definitely a plus and a reason to kiss the man's feet.

As the alarm sounded and they waited for the electronic door to glide open, she studied his feet. Large and boot-clad. Such a Texan. Her daddy would like that. Even when Caleb hadn't approved of her, the man had always remained a gentleman. And his lecture on how to appear less appealing to men with less than stellar appetites…Priceless!

She ignored a few of those less than stellar men now as they yelled obscenities. Caleb took another step closer then hurried her through the exit. As they passed the sentry seated in the cubicle, Caleb took her elbow. He maintained the close contact until they gained the elevator and punched a button then he faced her.

When he studied her from head to toe as if she were a decidedly puzzling science project, she crossed her arms over her chest. She would not be the first to speak. If only she had her notebook right now, a few words came to mind that she'd like to recall later.

"Destiny…" He sighed then shook his head.

"Caleb."

The elevator opened, and he led her past an officer to an unmarked door. She jerked her head to gaze up at him in question, but he was already nudging her through. From what she could see, this was a small office. It held a desk, filing cabinet, and two chairs, but little else. Whoever worked here appeared extremely tidy, as the desk was barren of any clutter at all, not even a photograph.

Caleb pushed at the door until it remained open only a slight gap then he sat behind the desk and waved her to a chair. "Sit." He pulled out that voice recorder he was so fond of and held it where she could see it. "This is a recording device. It isn't connected to the internet nor does it transmit signals of any kind. Would you care to inspect it?"

Destiny shook her head.

"I'm telling you that, Destiny, because I want you to know I'll be recording everything we say.
