Natural-Born Protector / Saved By The Monarch - Plot & Excerpts
Melody said into the phone the next morning. She sat at the kitchen table, a cup of coffee forgotten near her elbow. “That’s who Lainie was supposed to have a date with on the night of her murder.” “How do you know that?” Zack West’s deep voice boomed across the phone line. “I had a talk last night with James O’Donnell. He told me.” There was a long pause and she could almost feel the lawman’s disapproval wafting through the wire. “How would he know who Lainie had a date with that night?” he finally asked. “He was stalking her. I think he knew more about her life than anybody realized.” Melody thought about the way James had looked at her. Something in his eyes had made her feel dirty and violated. “Are you sure his alibi for the night of the murder is solid?” “As solid as anyone else’s. His mother insists he was home at ten and they watched a movie together until after midnight, when he went to bed.” “Is it possible his mother is lying?” Melody pressed the receiver closer to her ear.
