Chapter 7

Aaron stopped outside the entryway to his living room and eavesdropped on Tegan and Dillon. It had been almost two days since she’d talked to the Feds and so far neither they nor the Miami PD had been able to locate De Fiore. If he was even in Miami. Aaron knew they were exploring all leads on the bomber and so far all the cops had been able to find was a few images of a man in a hoodie heading down the street where the bomb had been placed.

They had a time frame for when they thought it had been planted. It had been early in the morning and the man’s image had been caught on multiple CCTVs. But the guy had disappeared into the parking garage of a hotel and from there they hadn’t been able to trace him anywhere. Without an actual face or fingerprints, they were hunting a ghost. It could be De Fiore or not.

“You don’t have to let me win, you know,” Dillon said.

“I’m not. I just stink at this game.” Tegan’s voice was matter of fact.

Dillon giggled, the sound music to Aaron’s ears. He might have screwed up by marrying the wrong woman, but he’d gotten Dillon so it was worth it.

“You really are bad. Not as bad as Daddy. We can play something else if you want.”

“It’s okay, it’s still fun. So your dad stinks, too?”

Dillon gave a belly laugh. “He can’t even get past level two.”

Tegan laughed loudly and Aaron risked peeking around the entryway. The Christmas tree twinkled in the corner, brightening the room. The two of them were sitting on the ground in front of the television, their backs to him. Kali was snoozing next to Tegan, her body stretched out as she lightly snored. Dillon was wearing his Captain America pajamas and Tegan had on a black party dress with a big puffy skirt that had sparkles all over it. It puffed out around her on the ground. Her hair was pulled up in a twist, revealing the smooth, pale skin of her neck and back.

He’d never really thought of backs as sexy, but everything about Tegan was.

Unfortunately, they hadn’t had much time alone together since the meeting in Carlito’s office. She’d been working on her website designs for the past day and a half, and he was pretty certain she’d been keeping him at a healthy distance after their almost-kiss. Much to his annoyance. He was patient, though. And determined.

“So…are you my dad’s girlfriend now?”

Tegan’s entire body jolted and he watched as the character on her side of the screen fell off a cliff. She cleared her throat. “Ah, no. We’re just friends.”

Unfortunately, he thought. He planned to change that soon, though.

“Yeah, that’s what he said. I just thought maybe…you guys might not wanna tell me.”

“I don’t think your dad would ever lie to you.”

“I know. But I heard Nana talking to Grandpa about you when they thought I was asleep. She said you were lovely and that it was about time Daddy moved on.
