The only question now is, will I install what he wants, or not?

“You can’t install it,” Ty says, as if he'd read my mind.

I tilt my head to the side, running my finger along the edge of my laptop. “If I don’t install it, he’ll know something isn’t right.”

“And if you do and we can’t catch him again, then he’ll have access to all of those things.”

I smirk, a laugh bubbling up in my chest as I watch Ty freak out. “Do you not know me?”

I shake my head, not quite believing he hasn’t realized by now. I turn my gaze to Luke, he has the same smirk that I do.

“What?” Ty asks, his tone deeper than usual as his cell starts ringing. He ignores it and continues to stare at me, his hands hanging loosely on his hips. “What are you both smirking at?”

“Do you really think I’d install this and not put a code inside that means I can switch it off remotely?”

He narrows his eyes at me, stepping forward. “Why the hell didn’t you start with that?”

Ty’s cell starts ringing again, the sound echoing around us, but he ignores it once again.

“Well…” I stand up, crossing my arms over my chest. “It’s fun to watch you worry.”

“You little—”

“Hey, hey.” I hold my hands up, letting the laughter slip free that has been bubbling up for the last few minutes. “There’s no need for that, I’m anything but little.”

“One of these days, Evan.” He shakes his head, but the grin on his face is at a complete contrast with his words.

He pulls his cell out at the same time mine starts ringing, and when I see Kay’s number, I press the answer button.

“Aloha.”

“Evan!” she gasps and I’m on high alert immediately, my eyes cutting to Ty’s.

“Kay? What’s going on?”

Ty steps forward, his shoulders tensing as Luke stands up.

“Geena, she came over and I don’t know what she said… she won’t come out. I can see she’s panicking. I don’t know what to do, we can’t leave her here like this on her own.”

“Whoa.” I hold my hand in the air. “Calm down, start from the beginning. Take a deep breath.”

“Give me the fucking cell, Evan,” Ty thunders, holding his hand out.

I move the cell from my ear, pressing the speakerphone button and setting it on the table as I lean over.

“Okay…” I hear Kay take a deep breath. “So we were coming out of the precinct and we saw Lexi.” I lift my eyes up to Ty and then Luke, seeing the questions in their gaze. “So we went and talked to her and I think I put my foot in it.”

I groan and rub my hand over my face. “What did you say?”

“I… I erm… I may have insinuate

d that you two, you know…”

“Okaaay.” I bite back my laugh.

“Then she got really erm, I don’t know… defensive? But she walked away and then Kitty may have shouted that she wants to know if you two had sex.”

“Fuck.” I can’t help the smile that kicks up on my face, imagining Lexi as she panicked about talking about us. There’s no way that I’d keep her a secret, not after the other night. She does something to me, the way she makes me feel. There’s no way I’m giving that up, not after what happened with Geena.
