Just as he turned the corner into the parking lot, someone grabbed his arm.


“What are you doing here?” one of the guards asked.


“Going for a walk. Last I heard that was allowed.”


“In back. Nowhere else. Now move it.”


“Just a damned minute. I’m not one of the kids that you can order around.”


“Do you want me to report you to the men in charge?” the guard asked tightly.


“Okay. Okay, message received.” Derek turned away, heading back toward his cottage. He could almost feel the guard watching him. Stopping halfway there, he knelt as if to tie a shoelace, glancing over hisshoulder as he did. The guard was nowhere in sight and Derek heard a car start up. Seconds later headlights lit the driveway, telling him the guard had left.


“Damn it to hell,” Derek muttered, standing again. He walked back to the lot, just in time to see the second guard take off. So much for that plan. He frowned, wondering why they left ahead of schedule. Maybe something’s going down?
