caller?” Logan wondered aloud.

“The voice was scratchy. The person was obviously trying to disguise himself, but it did sound a little familiar. I just couldn’t place it for sure.”

Logan leaned forward, a thoughtful expression on his face.

“Did Dale have a best friend he might have confided in?

Perhaps this person might blame you for what happened to him and wants revenge or at the very least, they want to rattle you a bit.”

Zora snorted. “Dale didn’t have friends, he had admirers.

He surrounded himself with sycophants because he threw his money around so freely. He had cronies, not friends.”

“But was there anyone he hung out with more than others?

Someone who might have considered him a friend?” Gavin asked.

“There were a couple guys, one guy’s name was Craig Martin and the other Ron, but I can’t remember his last name.

Those two don’t really strike me as the stalkerish types.”

“We have to look into all possibilities at this point.” Heath reached across the table. “Our main priority right now is ensuring your safety, and trust us, we will get to the bottom of this.”

She believed them when they promised to keep her safe, but if someone was really after her, who would keep them safe?

Chapter Thirteen

A month had passed without incident and they’d fallen into a nice routine. Zora helped out in Gavin’s practice two days a week, organizing files, handling billing and confirming appointments. Two days she spent in the store with Logan, doing the bookkeeping and keeping track of the inventory.

On her day off, she threw herself into redecorating the house and having lunch with Heath. It was hard to believe she could be happy again when her nana had passed, but now not only was she loved, she was in love. Some people would say her relationship was unconventional, and in the beginning she had doubts herself on how to make it work, but now she’d have it no other way.

With it being her day off, she’d spent the morning looking at paint samples, trying to find the right shade of yellow to paint the kitchen before finally deciding on a soft buttercream.

With that decision made, she fixed a special picnic lunch for her and Heath to share in his office. They usually went to a local restaurant, but she figured this would be much more intimate.

Once she finished packing her picnic basket, she showered and prepared herself to leave. Her men had gifted her with a car to get around in. She missed Christine, but Zora got over it the first time she slid behind the wheel of her brand new Mercedes SUV. She buckled up and dug her cell phone out of her purse to call Logan and Gavin to let them know she was on the go. She loved Gavin, Logan and Heath with all her heart, but they drove her mad with their overprotective ways.

Because their investigator never found any leads on who the harassing phone calls were from, they were leery of letting her leave the house alone. Zora refused to live her life in fear.

She’d run before, she wasn’t going to do it anymore.

After arguing, begging, pleading and even a little seduction, they’d finally relented a little. However, they made her agree to call them whenever she left the house so they’d know where she was going at all times. When she picked up her phone, she noticed several missed calls from a number she didn’t recognize. She went into her voicemail and saw it was empty. She wanted to think it was a wrong number, but a wrong number wouldn’t call so many times, would they?

She’d think about it later. In the meantime, she made her calls to Logan and Gavin. Heath already knew she’d be there at noon so she saw no point in calling him.

As she headed toward Heath’s office, she turned on the radio and sang along. She didn’t notice the car following so closely behind until she happened to glance in her rear view mirror. “What the hell?”

There were too many nuts on the road to make a stink about it, so she got over to the right lane to allow
