Page 13 of Micah

Patsy sat up suddenly feeling anxious. Could he figure it out?Oh, my God!

If the interview didn’t go as planned with White, he could tell that man to look into Micah and if they did, she was sure they’d be able to find him. She had no doubt White knew computer hackers and it wouldn’t be hard for them to find out where Micah lived. White’s man was already in Cheyenne.

Dear God! He could find her through Micah!

She got up and ran to the kitchen to look at the phone numbers by the phone. Micah had written down a list of numbers for her. The FBI headquarters, Coby Romero’s number, and his own cell phone. She picked up the phone and dialed his cell phone.

“Turner,” he answered.

“Is he going to call off his man?”

Micah’s sigh came across the line and she knew, even before he had to tell her, that White hadn’t played along.

“No. I dangled aget out of death rowcard, but he didn’t go for it.”

“He’ll tell that man and then he will figure out where I am through you.”

“I have men outside the house, Patsy.”

“Yeah, I know. Thanks for telling me about that, by the way. I could have freaked out if I’d seen them.”

Micah laughed. “Trust me, you wouldn’t see them and neither will anyone else.”

“Like that’s supposed to make me feel better? Damn it, Micah, you should have told me.”

“Why?”

“Why? What do you mean why?”

“Why should I have told you? What difference would it have made? They are there to watch the house and keep an eye out for any suspicious behavior in the neighborhood. Telling you they were there wouldn’t have made any difference to how they do their jobs.”

“Except, maybe I would have felt safer,” she practically shouted.

“Holy hell. I can’t win with you. I’ll be home tomorrow night. Calm down and go relax in the hot tub.”

“I’m not going outside. I’ll just use the Jacuzzi in your bathroom.”

“You know I have a Jacuzzi tub? How is that?”

Shit!

“Never mind. I’ll see you tomorrow.”

She hung up, but not before she heard him chuckle.Damn man!

Patsy laughed as she walked from the kitchen and headed to his bedroom. She was definitely going to use that tub. She’d love to use the hot tub but was too scared togo outside. It didn’t matter that the FBI agents were out there, that man could be anywhere. Now since Micah had talked with White about calling the man off and had no intention to do so, all White had to do was have someone do a little research and find out exactly where Micah lived. White had to have a suspicion she might be under his protection because Micah was the one to speak with him. If they thought she was in a safe house, they could still find Micah to try to get information from him about where she was. Although, she had a feeling Micah would never divulge any information he didn’t want to give up, no matter how they tried to get it from him. She shivered. To say she was terrified was a huge understatement.

She entered the bathroom after stopping in her bedroom to get bubble bath. She turned the water on, and added the bubble bath then stripped while the water filled the tub and bubbles rose to the top. After piling her long hair on top of her head, she stepped into the tub and slid down into the water. Groaning as the warm water engulfed her. The bubbles surrounded her up to her nose.

She leaned her head back and sighed. It felt wonderful. The only way it could be better was if FBI Agent Micah Turner was in here with her.You really need to stop thinking of him!

She snorted. Like that would happen. She’d never forgotten him since the first time she saw him. He was one sexy man and she’d tried to ignore him, but it never worked. She’d asked Bella about him anytime she could without seeming to be desperate to learn anything about him. When Bella had told her he’d been dating someone for quite a while, Patsy’s heart had cracked. Even now, she was frowning just thinking about it. Where was the woman now? Were they still dating? What would she think of Patsy being in Micah’s home?

Patsy had convinced herself she was finally over her infatuation with Micah, that was until she saw him again at Dakota Walker and Megan Carson’s wedding. He oozed sex and she wanted him desperately. Roni and Isabella had teased her about him while they all helped Megan get ready for her wedding but she had denied her attraction. She told her friends constantly that she wasn’t interested in him, but she knew she was trying to convince herself more than anyone else. She’d actually hoped he’d ask her to dance at the reception, but he hadn’t. He had slow danced with other women though, and women were always all over him and his tall, dark, and handsome good looks. Patsy had wanted to pry their fingers from his shoulders when they danced with him.Bitches!

Sitting up, she pressed the button for the jets and immediately was overrun by bubbles. The jets were making more of them. Patsy quickly shut the jets off.

Note to self: never add bubble bath if you want to use the jets!
