Chapter 10

“So, is Corporal Brooks seeing anyone seriously?” Vaughn asked casually.

Well, as casually as a woman could ask a loaded question like that, Alex thought. He and Remy had been in the surveillance van with the narcotics officer for the past three hours, staring at the bank of monitors that lined the interior wall.

Remy threw Alex a quick glance and a smile. Alex immediately knew that glint in his teammate’s eyes meant Remy was planning to tease the narcotics cop about something. Damn, that guy simply couldn’t stop himself, could he?

“Unfortunately, Corporal Brooks doesn’t have a lot of time for women,” Remy said grimly. “Not with the two young children he’s raising on his own.”

Vaughn’s eyes widened in shock, not to mention what looked a hell of a lot like panic.

“Remy’s messing with you,” Alex said, figuring he’d better step in before this got too out of hand. “Brooks doesn’t have any kids, and he isn’t seeing anyone at the moment.”

Vaughn relaxed in her chair. “Thank God. I slipped the shift scheduler twenty bucks to put me on late-night surveillance with him later in the week—alone. I’d hate to think I wasted a Jackson for nothing.”

Alex chuckled. They’d figured Brooks would need a woman who was bold and outgoing. That description seemed to fit Vaughn to a T. He only hoped his pack mate was able to handle her.

Remy looked like he was ready to complain about Alex putting a stop to his antics, but then he leaned forward and adjusted the controls on one of the monitors. “Pendergraff just showed up at the front gate. Maybe that means something interesting will happen tonight.”

“For a change,” Alex muttered.

This was the third different automotive location of Bensen’s that he’d worked since this surveillance job had started. This one was not only the largest, but the one where Bensen spent most of his time, and Alex was hoping they might catch a break here. Having both Bensen and Pendergraff in the building at the same time had to improve the odds.

“You’re recording, right?” he asked Remy.

His teammate nodded. They had half a dozen cameras set up around three sides of the junkyard, praying they might catch a glimpse of something that would tie Bensen to the manufacturing and distribution of fireball. But so far, other than recording the faces and license plates of a lot of visitors—most of whom had no connection to the illegal drug trade—they didn’t have much to show for their efforts.

After ten minutes, Alex sat back in his chair. Their chances of seeing anything interesting happen tonight were getting slimmer by the second. Unfortunately, that meant he was left with his own thoughts to keep him entertained, and they went back to the same place they had since last night—the murdered woman and dead dogs that he and Lacey had stumbled over.

The homicide cops, crime scene techs, and medical examiner had arrived shortly after he’d called it in. The detectives had taken his statement—multiple times—then marginalized him. He understood—he really did.
