Marcia disconnected her call. Vi had sounded like her usual upbeat self and was in the process of retiring from her job as a teacher. She would be a great help. She rolled her neck and wondered when the pain would stop. It was either her leg or her head that was hurting, and she’d be damned if she was going to take another one of those prescribed pain pills. Nothing but Tylenol for this girl. But man, she hurt, and the doctor said she could expect this for the next week!

She pushed up from the hotel bed and eyed the clock. She eyed the Uber app on her phone, the car was five minutes away. Based on her hobbling speed, she’d just make it to the lobby in time to meet him. Visiting hours weren’t going to last much longer. Too bad Frick and Frack had taken so long with her ‘debriefing’ today. Just how many times could they ask a question in a different way? You would have thought that she was a criminal or something.

She was so mad, she tried to slam her hotel room door shut, but in the end, she just couldn’t bring herself to do it. Somebody might be trying to rest. Then when she started stomping toward the elevator, she just ended up hurting herself.

Yay for team Price, what an idiot.

At least punching the button a bunch of times for the elevator didn’t hurt her.

“In a hurry?”

A tall man dressed in a suit was smiling down at her. But it was the wrong tall man. He didn’t have dark eyes, high cheekbones or warm caramel skin, and his smile didn’t make her melt.

“Just trying to get to the hospital before visiting hours are over with,” Marcia answered.

“Family?” he asked.

His voice didn’t rumble. He could be quiet any time now as far as she was concerned. She pressed the button again, letting her hair hide her face. “Nope, a friend.”

He shut up.

The elevator opened, and they waited in an awkward silence until they got to the lobby, Marcia did her best not to limp as she headed to the front. Her car was waiting. It was good it wasn’t cold in San Diego, she only had a light coat. She’d gotten some clothes from someone on the aircraft carrier and a few more here in San Diego. How they had managed to get her ID, bank card, and a replacement phone so fast, she had no idea, but she wasn’t just dealing with the military, she was dealing with Homeland Security.

“Lady, are you listening to me? Where to?”

She gave the address for the US Naval hospital she’d memorized.

Now that she was on her way to see Zed, she was nervous. The man was a SEAL, he probably had women throwing themselves at him all the time. What were they called? Buckle Bunnies? Nope, that was for girls who liked the men in the rodeo. Silly Putty! Lesley knew this kind of thing. She always knew things.
