Chapter Six

A week later

“Do you think we’ll ever hear from her again?” Logan asked. They were underground, riding in the golf cart, headed home for a few days’ break from the Western park. Logan hadn’t once mentioned her all week, until just now.

And Kendall knew exactly who “her” was because his best friend’s question was one he had asked himself every morning since Jocelyn had left a week ago. “I don’t know. I hope so.”

“Me, too.” Logan didn’t say anything else. He’d been quiet since Jocelyn left. Unlike him. Plus, they hadn’t so much as mentioned sleeping with or getting together with any another woman since she’d gone. Also very unlike them both. Logan had never once been the least bit moody, preoccupied, or lost in thought over any woman they’d ever shared. Until Jocelyn.

For his own part, he felt like their time together had been preempted and he hadn’t been able to pull himself from those fantasies. Or that’s what he told himself was the case. Truthfully, she’d been on his mind most of every waking minute of each day that she’d been gone. He even dreamed about her, making his unconscious mind a cohort in the sappy, lovesick way he felt.

Kendall heard the phone start ringing as soon as they stepped inside the home they shared, and not for the first time felt his heart leap, hoping for a call from Jocelyn. They were upstairs in the main house this time, and not in their basement play area. He picked up the phone before it rang a second time.

“Hello.” He hadn’t meant for his tone to sound so eager. So he was even more than slightly disappointed when his brother Clay said, “Hey, it’s me. I heard you called a while back. What’s up?”

“Not Jocelyn,” he mouthed to Logan. “It’s about time you called me back, bro,” Kendall added and watched Logan nod then head upstairs.

“Well, I was on the run, dodging an assassin for a bit. Then I got married again. Sorry to keep you waiting so long.” Clay told him briefly about the person who tried to kill him, and also about the woman he married. Her name was Angelica. Each subject was equally intriguing, but Kendall was under the gun from the other owners to resolve this security issue with the compound computer being hacked, and additionally, last week’s break-in from Reggie.

“Wow. An assassin, and another wife. You have been busy, but that’s still no excuse. I’d love to chat with you more about your jet-set lifestyle, and I’d also love to meet your wife, but first you need to get up here and take a look at our security system.”

Clay’s long sigh came over the phone. “What’s the problem? Maybe I can just talk you through it over the phone.”

“Someone hacked into the compound computer security about three weeks ago. The report that spit out only said there’d been a breach, but not where it came from.”

There was a long silence at the end of the phone line.
