And he was going to do everything in his power to make sure nothing changed when they got back to the city.
If this was the life Brooke wanted, he was going to make sure she had it.
Thirty-Four
Brooke
The cameras came out of nowhere.
“Tyler! Lee! What is the big announcement for the StarCon?”
“What do you plan to tell the shareholders tomorrow?”
“Who is your friend?”
Brooke’s head whipped in one direction and then another as the reporters threw out questions in the lobby of StarCon. She held up a hand to protect her eyes from the constant flashes. They had tried to prepare her on the ride from the cabin, but she didn’t think there was a corporate manual that covered this kind of media ambush.
The quiet and remoteness of the wilderness already felt a million miles away.
Tyler stepped in front of her, shielding her from the barrage.
Lee’s hand slipped in hers as he whispered in her ear, “We’ve got you. Just keep walking and we’ll be in the penthouse in just a minute. They’re just curious.”
She plastered a smile on her face and walked, feeling steady with his hand in hers and Tyler keeping her protected from the mob of reporters.
“What surprises do you have?”
“Any big concerts this year?”
“How was your corporate treat? What is this new launch?”
The reporters followed them to the gold elevators. Tyler grinned. “You’ll just have to see tomorrow. Thanks for coming out. We have big news for you tomorrow.”
He waved as the doors closed.
“Oh my God.” Brooke felt the breath she had been holding escape.
“You ok?” Lee asked.
She nodded. “I had no idea it was going to be like this. Do you deal with this all the time?”
Tyler chuckled. “When we are together or have press events. We seem to have a way of drawing a crowd.”
“It doesn’t help that we’ve been out of the public eye for three months.” Lee rubbed his scruffy beard. She hoped he didn’t shave it just because they were back in the stylish corporate world.
She realized Lee was still holding her hand. She didn’t let it go.
The doors retracted and deposited them in the penthouse of the StarCon building. It was the private home of the two men she loved.
Brooke’s jaw dropped. She’d never seen anything like it in her life.
Tyler walked to the bar. “I think our first day home calls for a celebration.” He poured a round of drinks and handed one to Brooke and then Lee.
“What should we toast to?” Lee asked, holding his glass in the air.
Brooke felt the heat of their stares fall on her. She was at a loss for words. They had a way of making that happen. Being around them lately made her feel like she had so much to learn about herself.
“To a mutually successful launch.” Tyler winked. “To our star artist.”
