She spent the next ten minutes boring him out of his mind discussing the inspection. Luckily, the woman had an awesome rack otherwise he would have taken a pencil to the eye.
“Harrison. Eyes up.” Her fingers pointed at her eyes. “Are you even listening to me?”
He smiled. “It’s tough to concentrate when your breasts are pushed in my face.”
“My breasts are nowhere near your face.”
Neil grabbed her waist and pulled her closer. “Now they are.”
She laughed. “You have a one
track mind.”
Yes he did. And getting in between Carson’s legs seemed to be the only thing on his mind lately. “You’re supposed to be there for me.”
“Yes.” The word came out elongated. “I promised I’d be there for you when you’re anxious about riding.”
A knock sounded on the office door. Neil released Carson’s waist and pushed her away.
Cole peeked in the room. “King, do you have a minute? Oh, hey Carson, how are you?”
“Great, thank you, Cole. Looking pretty snazzy in your chef coat.”
“What can I do for you, Cole?” There was too much nicey-nicey going on. Cole was not getting a chance to horn in on his woman. His woman? Where the hell had that come from?
“Penn told me you didn’t agree to my menu changes.”
“She’s right. I need to look them over in more detail, but it will have to wait.”
Cole fisted his hands at his side. “Neil, this is my restaurant.”
“That may be, but you know the rules. We all have to agree.” He could hardly believe the words he was saying. Was he really trying to play the power card? “Just buy some time and make the new dishes as daily specials. Gauge people’s interests.”
Carson stepped away, but the smell of her still lingered. It was enough to make his cock twitch inside his pants. Everything about this woman made his cock twitch.
“King, it will take you ten minutes to—”
“Jesus Christ, Cole. I don’t have time for this right now.”
Cole jerked back in surprise at Neil’s outburst. So did Carson. She looked at him with concern. Immediately an idea formulated in his mind.
Neil slid his hand over his face. “I’m getting really agitated. You’re really pushing me over the edge right now, Cole.” He looked over at Carson who stood, arms crossed over her luscious breasts and a big grin on her face. “I’m stressing and the only thing I think that can save me is a ride on my bike.”
“You have no license,” Cole blurted.
“What do you mean you have no license?” Carson voice went up at least two octaves. That wasn’t a good sign.
“Uhhh…” He glanced up at her, then at Cole, hoping he’d have an out. His only offering was a shrug. “I…uhh…sort of got pulled over for speeding and had my license suspended for seven days.”
“How could that have possibly happened in less than twelve hours since I last saw you?” She stopped talking and shrank into herself. So she didn’t want Cole to know they spent time with each other outside of business hours. That was all right. He didn’t owe anyone an explanation.
“He was arrested, too,” Cole blurted. “Jack, Finn and I had to pick him up at the precinct this morning.”
Neil shot Cole a dirty look. He didn’t have to disclose the whole story.
“That’s why you missed the inspection?” Carson asked. “Because you were in jail.”
“I’m a dangerous mess.” His shoulders lifted to his ears. “I need help or I’m going to get on my bike.”
