When Princes Go Rogue

But I don’t care about that right now.

Gabe’s standing with his back to me, completely oblivious to the fact I’m now screaming his name.

This is not the time for a polite conversation.

I grab his arm and unceremoniously yank him away from the barbecue.

He pulls out his earbuds, swinging around to face me. “What the fuck?”

I see the moment he realizes who he’s just sworn at because his face turns an interesting purple color.

“The cook—” I start to say.

Before I have a chance to explain, there’s a loud explosion behind us.

Gabe and I both jump.

Suddenly, Teddy and Mike, two members of my security team, are pushing me to the ground. My breath slams out as Teddy lies on top of me, frantically talking into his walkie-talkie.

“It’s okay, it’s okay.” I struggle to free myself from the tangle of bodies. “It’s just an aerosol can exploding from getting too hot.”

Teddy pulls back. “It’s what?”

“A pressurized aerosol can. They can explode if they get too hot.”

I climb to my feet, trying to brush off the grass sticking to my sweater, my hand shaking slightly. I’m suddenly aware the whole crowd is watching me, so I say it again in a louder voice.

“It was just the cooking spray. You need to keep it away from hot grills.”

Mike has gone over to inspect the warped metal remnants of what used to be an innocent-looking aerosol can.

He picks it up, turning it over in his hand.

“This thing could’ve taken out someone’s eye,” Mike says.

I nod enthusiastically. “When I worked in insurance, I dealt with claims from aerosol cans exploding. They can start house fires. People don’t realize the cans are pressurized, so they can explode when heated.”

There’s a buzz of noise as conversation breaks out among the guests.

Quinton comes over, white-faced.

“Thank you.” He shakes my hand. “Thank you so much.”

“It’s not a big deal,” I say, suddenly aware of all the cameras trained on me.
