I smiled at him. “Thanks, Evan.” He shrugged, his cheeks turning pink.

“It will come in handy when you’re on surveillance.”

“What’s this one?”

“That’s a works phone.”

“But I’ve already got a phone.” I held it out to him but he stepped away.

“No, you need one just for work, you know for meetings and stuff.” I opened my mouth to say something just as Ty walked back out the office.

“It’s got a tracker on as well, you know, just in case.”

“Let’s go.” Ty walked passed me, held the door open and waited.

“Thanks again for these.” I held them up in the air at Evan and pushed the phone into my front pocket of my jeans.

“Welcome,” he said as he shuffled off to his computers.

I slid past Ty. Knowing that we’d be going in his monster SUV, I waited at the passenger door for him to unlock the doors.

“Here,” he said from behind me.

I jumped when his fingers grazed my neck, the rough callouses making me shiver. His breath hot on my neck. It confused me how he could get this kind of reaction out of me, I’d never felt this kind of connection with anybody.

Even when me and Max first got together I didn’t feel anything close to this.

I felt the ear piece go into my ear. Then he was gone and the lights flashed on the monster.

I shook my head and pulled the door open. What did I think he was going to do?

We sat and watched the same house for an hour. It’s exterior exactly the same as the rest of the houses that lined the street. Each garden was immaculate, the grass a green that could only be achieved with some kind of chemicals. Not one thing was out of place, not even a lone wrapper floating down the street.

It was the epitome of suburbia.

We followed David Rangle all over town, he’d stopped at several different places until he pulled into one of the driveways and went inside.

His file was open on my lap. We were watching for any suspicious activity. But so far, I couldn’t see anything that would be suspicious. Unless you counted his obnoxious sports car, that screamed midlife crisis.

“What do you think he’s doing in there?” I asked.

“Really?” I looked up at Ty, he smirked at me and raised a brow.

I looked from the house to Ty and back again. When it registered I gasped.

“You think…”

“Yeah.” He pulled out his phone and tapped away at the screen before his body turned toward me.

I huffed and closed the file, I hadn’t learned anything that I didn’t already know from the five other times I’d read it.

“Oh look,” I whispered as he came out the house. His hair all over the place and shirt sticking out. I’d say that he had been up to no good for sure. I had a sneaking suspicion that she wasn’t his wife.

Would that warrant as suspicious activity?

Ty sat up straighter and waited for him to pull out of the drive, then followed at a distance.
