She shook her head, “I called my insurance company last night. They are sending a cleaning crew to my house. I am going to stay at the motel while it gets cleaned up. I’m scared.”
Trace spoke up, “We know you are scared Polly. And we understand why you did what you did when you tried to seduce us. Everything is forgiven. Okay? If you need us, please call either Brek or me and we will help you”
She looked up at him, “I won’t try to seduce you again. I promise. That ship has sailed. I will let you know if I need help. Thank you Brek. And thank you Trace. You are good men.”
Brek stood and hugged Polly softly. “Let us know. We will both want to help you.”
Polly smiled and thanked them again.
They left her room and asked about the woman that had been brought in earlier.
All they could get from the nurse sitting at the desk was that she was in surgery and her grandchildren had been notified of her condition.
Brek and Trace nodded and left. He needed to text Sienna and get back to the station.
This was too much. Thankfully they had caught the man responsible for the break-ins, but Brek still had a feeling that something wasn’t right.
And he didn’t know why. Pulling out his phone while Trace drove to the station, Brek texted Sienna.
Brek: I am sorry I won’t be able to cook for you. I hope pizza is okay for dinner. Today has been a crazy day and I have a feeling it isn’t over.
Sienna: Are you all right? We don’t have to do dinner tonight if you aren’t feeling up to it. It’s okay.
Brek: The only thing keeping me sane is knowing I get to see my girl tonight. I can’t wait to kiss you and hold you.
Sienna: I can’t wait for that either. I miss you.
Brek: I miss you too. I will pick you up at 6.
Sienna: I'll be ready.
Brek grinned and put his phone away.
Trace looked over at him. “That your girl?”
Brek nodded, “It sure is. You going to meet her tonight?”
Trace let out a breath, “Yeah. I can’t wait.”
Brek grinned, “Good. You will love her. I just know it. Just, you know… in a sisterly way.”
Trace went stiff in his seat and Brek raised his eyebrow. And then Trace chuckled, “I can do that.”
Brek laughed and when they got back to the station, they went inside.
They needed to talk to the man responsible for all of this.
