“It was a prank phone call,” Tessa said hurriedly. “I got spooked.”
“What did the caller say?” Henry asked.
“Nothing that made any sense.”
“Can you be a little more specific?”
“He said he knew what I had done,” she replied.
“There’s someone you were thinking of? Someone who might want to scare you?”
“The kidnapper pops to mind,” Kayla offered before Tessa could respond.
Too bad. Henry would have liked to hear Tessa’s answer.
He had a feeling the kidnapper hadn’t been the first person to pop into her mind. She’d told him very little about her past. But that seemed to be Tessa’s MO: very little information and very few details.
He wanted to protect her.
She wasn’t making it easy.
He was about to tell her that when something crashed through the window a few feet away, smashing the pane of glass and shattering it into millions of tiny shards.
“Get down!” he shouted, diving toward Tessa and tackling her to the ground as light flashed and a ball of fire shot across the room.
