Chapter 23

Rowley rushed up the sidewalk to Leera’s place. What the fuck was going on? Police cars and an ambulance were parked along the road. Lights flashed and sirens wailed. Paramedics loaded Leera into the back of the ambulance. Trailing behind the paramedics, Peter held a BlackBerry to his ear.

“What the fuck happened?”

“I don’t know. Why don’t you ask him?” Peter pointed to the creature the police escorted out of the house in cuffs.

Rowley marched up and shoved him in the chest. “What did you do to her?”

Its vacant eyes met his gaze.

“Sir, step away from the suspect.” The officer gestured.

Wasn’t this exactly what he’d been warning Leera would happen? He closed his hand into a fist and socked the creature in the face. Nothing. No reaction.

“Say something.” Anger boiled inside him.

The officers loaded it into the back of the squad car. If it didn’t go down for the murder of the president, Rowley would ensure it paid over and over in another way for this.

Meg came to the door with her coat open. “Thank goodness you’re here. They are taking Leera to Georgetown Hospital. And in all the mayhem, I’ve started to have contractions.”

“We can take my car.” He held out his hand, leading her to the vehicle and opened the door.

The hospital wasn’t too far. Thankfully. If she had the baby now, he hadn’t the slightest clue what to do. He climbed in and headed east.

“I feel just horrible, and to think I invited him,” Meg said.

Better he not speak. If he did, he’d finally tell her what a nitwit she was. How Peter managed to put up with her, he couldn’t fathom. What man wanted to listen to mindless chatter all day long? Maybe that was the point, though. Mrs. Waltz had been quite the handful from what Leera told him. Perhaps Peter stayed with Meg because she just wasn’t smart enough to ask the right kind of questions about his whereabouts, leaving him to bang his secretaries all he wanted?
