missing. Are you aware of something in particular that was taken?”
    Evangelina had her head pillowed on Adrian’s large chest. She bit her bottom lip as she glanced over at her friend. “Just some undergarments.” No way was she admitting in front of these guys that BOB was missing. And wasn’t that just beyond sick? Her ex-boyfriend breaks into her apartment, tears everything to shreds, ejaculates all over her bed and lingerie, and then steals her vibrator. WTF? Who does something like that?
    ' She still isn’t telling the entire truth,' Aiden stated as he watched her body language. Their mate couldn’t lie worth a damn.
    ' I know, but let’s not push the issue right now. She’s drained, and I surely do not want to be the cause of another crying fit.'
    'You are right. The lock has already been compromised, so it should not take much to come back here after they are gone, ' Aiden stated, as he ran his hand up and down her arm, comforting her.

    Three hours later, the men let themselves back into their mate’s apartment. They waited until the girls had arrived safely at Angel’s house, and then waited until all of the neighbors’ lights were out. Silently, they jimmied the lock and opened the door. Keeping lights off, they used their dragon vision to maneuver around and search the place, looking for clues of any kind.
    “He must have done this while we were at the bar with the girls,” Aiden growled. “The question is, why?”
    “You think he saw the four of us talking and was jealous?” Adrian questioned.
    “Yeah, my gut is telling me that is exactly what happened.”
    In talking with the girls earlier, it was easy to see Evangelina was scared of her ex. She had informed them before leaving, “One thing about Gerald you need to know, if he doesn’t get his own way, he gets very ugly. I firmly believe he has some mental issues, but I have also seen him turn malicious and evil.” They had watched her visibly shudder after telling them.
    Fadri, who had been listening in on their mate’s conversation at the time, had perked up immediately . 'Oh, tell him to bring it on. I’ll incinerate his ass in 3.5 seconds. Or maybe he’d like to be frozen with the breath of liquid nitrogen. Either way is fine by me. Come on, boys, let me at this scumbag. I saw what he did to our mate’s personal belongings.' He had been pushing them to join so he could mete out his punishment on Gerald. It had taken them quite some time to get Fadri to settle down.
    Now, three hours later, they sifted through every inch of Evangelina’s apartment. When they reached her bedroom, Adrian let out a low whistle. “Oh, man. I know you and Angel said it was bad back here, but this is horrendous. No wonder she didn’t want anyone seeing this.”
    “Yes, well she is still hiding something from us, and call me the curious cat, but I am determined to figure it out,” Aiden stated.
    Fadri decided to pick his heads up and chime in. ' Cat??? They are disgusting little fur balls that lay around and get fat and lazy all day. Why would anyone want to be a cat?'
    Aiden huffed out in annoyance. ' It was a figure of speech, Fadri. But to please you, we’ll change it to curious dragon, okay?'
    They went through and picked up a bit more, throwing out the scraps of what used to be their mate’s clothes. It was under the nightstand drawer that was lying upside down on the floor that Aiden found his first clue.
    “Hey, look at this.” He held up a narrow box about 10 inches long. “States it is a personal massager. Yeah, I bet I know what was in here.” He stopped and opened the box, sniffing the inside. “Yep, our girl had one of those sex toys.”
    Adrian rolled his eyes and shook his head. “Aiden, they are just called personal massagers for advertising purposes. Everyone knows what they are. And just about every woman who is sexually active has one nowadays, I daresay.”
    “Really? You mean to tell me human men cannot or will not take care
