Nineteen

Jordan strode back into the office and used his badge to enter the security office. Walls of television screens showed cameras from all angles. Every elevator. Every hallway. Every entrance and exit.

Stan glanced up from his desk, unsurprised since he’d been able to watch Jordan’s approach the entire way. The light from the computer monitor made RoboTech’s security chief’s skin appear pale and ghostly. “Hey, boss. What’s up?”

“Don’t let Heather hear you say that,” Jordan said with a smirk. He skipped the pleasantries. “What happened with Diego?”

Stan sat back in his chair. “He took the bait.”

“Damn. I liked that kid.” Jordan sighed and leaned against Stan’s desk. “Any word on where he’s trying to share it?”

Stan shot him a look. “Shouldn’t I be discussing this with Heather?”

“Probably.” He crossed his arms. “But discuss it with me too.”

“Same buyer as three months ago. Wants specifications for the drone.”

“And did Diego get them?”

“The ones we planted?” Jordan nodded. “Yup. I’ve got my guys trying to track the buyer. They’re slippery as always, but the transaction has got to be clumsy if the hormone-riddled moron was using it as fodder for picking up girls.”

“Girls?”

Stan shook his head. “Girl. Not plural. Abigail Roberts.”

“He hit on Abigail?” Jordan’s voice was a growl. Pathetic, but there it was.

“Who wouldn’t?” Stan asked. “Not only is she gorgeous but that body—”

“Shut the fuck up.”

Stan froze, eyes narrowed as he studied Jordan. “Something we need to discuss?”

“Nope.”

“Abigail is a nice girl,” Stan said.

“And how would you know?” Jordan said. So what if it sounded like an accusation? Who the hell was Stan to say such a thing?

A flash of humor crossed the other man’s face before it went blank. “I worked security for her father about five years ago. Doubt she remembers me since she wasn’t around much. But it’s kind of hard to forget her . . .”

“I’d be careful with your next words.”

“You’ve got a big ego, O’Keith, if you think you could take me,” Stan said, amused. “But that’s not what I mean. There’s something vulnerable about her. I didn’t like seeing the hurt in her eyes.”

Neither did Jordan. Especially when he was the cause of it. “Yeah.”

“Her dad is kind of a dick.”

Jordan snorted. “I know the feeling.”

“That you do.” A pause. “So the specs?”

He released a frustrated breath. This whole thing was a fucking mess.

“They won’t do the buyer any good. They’re flawed and incomplete.”

“You know that,” Stan said. “I know that. But the rest of the staff doesn’t. And they’re getting pretty ballsy if they’re entering Heather’s office to steal information.”

Jordan rose to his feet and thrust a hand through his hair. “Keep the last two around for a bit, see if they get pinged and are stupid. It might give us the information we need.”

“Might not,” Stan countered. “It’s a risk.”

“We’ve got to plug the leak.”

“Thought you were supposed to be on a beach right now. That this all was Heather’s problem.”

“Things change.”

One brow went up. “Not that much.”

“It’s complicated.”

A smirk. “It’s a girl.
