I snort derisively, then relax when she laughs.
“Don’t worry, Agent Bennett. I normally don’t play with boys who wear badges. You’re my only exception.”
Then there’s that. I’m still confused about that. No criminal record means no run-ins with police. Unless there’s a sealed juvie record, but nothing popped when Hadley ran her name through the system.
“Keep me awake while I drive,” I tell her, not commenting on any of the other.
“You want me to tell you about how I broke my vibrator this morning?”
I swerve the car, cursing as a horn blares.
“Logan? You okay?” she asks, sounding genuinely concerned.
“Yeah,” I grumble. “Fine. How’d you break your vibrator?”
This girl… I swear she gets off on surprising me. Every time I think I have her figured out, she throws me another curve ball.
She laughs lightly. “Well, I pulled it out of my drawer, peeled my panties off on my bed, and when I slid it down my body, building up the anticipation as it buzzed…it slipped out of my hand, hit a crease in the bed, and crashed against the floor. The fun part broke off.”
Laughter escapes me before I can stop it, and I feel her smile.
“What if I told you your vibrator could retire for the night?”
“I’d say duh. Because it’s worthless now.”
“I meant, I’m coming there,” I say, still partially laughing under my breath.
“Really? You can get away?” The excitement in her tone has me driving a little faster.
“On my way right now,” I tell her, smiling when I hear her sigh like she’s content.
“Well, good, then you can—”
My phone beeps with an incoming call, and I groan, cutting her off mid-sentence.
“You need to let me go, don’t you?” she muses.
“Yes. Unfortunately. I’ll see you in about twenty though.”
“Be safe.”
I hang up and answer my call without looking to see who it is.
“Bennett.”
“I found a few things that could give us a lead. Where are you?” Hadley asks.
“Just left a few minutes ago. Take what you found to Donny. I’m going to crash for a couple of hours and get some sleep in an actual bed.”
“Your bed?” she asks, an edge to her tone.
“No. Not that it’s any of your business.”
“Logan, we need to talk about something,” she says hesitantly.
“Which is?”
After several long seconds, she finally exhales a loud, frustrated breath. “Nothing. At least nothing for now. I’ll let you know if I find something.”
