CHAPTER TWENTY

HE CALLED AS PROMISED, on the one night that Bruce was home early and Anya was curled at his feet on the carpet watching TV. Anya picked up the ringing phone just as Bruce glanced at the screen and saw Daine’s name displayed. He was instantly on edge.

Daine. Wasn’t that the name of Dean’s twin? The same man that Anya feared was out to get them? Why was he calling his wife, and why was she taking his call?

And why was he added to the contact list in her phone?

“Hey,” Anya spoke into the phone. She moved from the noise of the TV and went to stand on the patio. To Bruce, it meant she wanted privacy. That did not sit well with him.

“Is this a bad time?” Daine asked.

“Not at all. I was just watching TV.”

“You should watch me instead,” he suggested playfully.

She giggled.

Bruce heard her laugh and gritted his teeth. His first impulse was to get up, snatch her phone and end the call, but he didn’t want to fight with Anya. Not tonight. He felt guilty about his affair with Patricia, and he’d plan to ease the guilt by making love to Anya tonight.

Although he was unfaithful to Anya, it was hard for him to sit there and pretend the phone call did not bother him.

“So, is your husband home yet?”

She glanced behind her to where Bruce sat. “Yeah, he’s here.”

“Then, I’ll talk to you tomorrow.”

“It’s ok, we can talk.”

“Are you sure? I don’t want to cause any problems.”

“Why would you? We’re just friends.”

That’s not what I want. “I agree, but I’ll feel more at ease when he’s not there. I’m sure he isn’t in a good mood right now.”

Anya glanced at Bruce again. His brow furrowed, and his lips set in a tight line as he stared at the TV.

There was no doubt, he did not approve of the phone call.

“Ok, I’ll call you tomorrow,” Anya promised, and ended the call.

“Who was that?” Bruce asked grumpily when she resumed her seat.

She hesitated. “It was Daine,” she replied shortly.

His face turned to stone. “What did he want?”

She shrugged casually. “He called to see how I was doing.”

“Why would he do that?”

“I told him he could call me.”

Bruce blew up. “What the hell are you up to, Anya?”

“What do you mean?” She asked, with surprise.

“You can’t be serious. Have you forgotten that this man is searching for us? Don’t you remember that his brother died in Kemona’s living room, right in front of us?”

“I haven’t forgotten, Bruce.”

“Then why are you entertaining him?” He thundered.

“I’m trying to throw him off track, okay? He can’t find out about us.”

“I’m not comfortable with this, Anya.”

She twisted to face him. “And I’m not comfortable with your relationship with your ‘baby mama’, but I have to live with it, don’t I? Give me a break.”

Bruce fell silent. For the past couple of days, he had not touched Patricia; he’d been saving himself for Anya, which meant he was horny as a toad. He wouldn’t start a fight with Anya tonight.
