“I might ask you the same question,” she countered.
While I should be angry with her for ignoring my command, her attitude as well as the harsh look she was giving them created a hard twitch in my cock. No woman had ever stood up to me the way she had and managed to defy me at every turn.
“These are federal agents,gatita,” I said, allowing her to enjoy the game as much as I was.
“And you are here for what reason other than to harass my fiancé?”
The two of them glanced at each other again.
“What is your name, miss?” Walker asked as he removed a notepad and pen.
“Sierra Wynters. May I see some identification?” She wasn’t asking. She was demanding. When she held out her hand, her expression was stern, unrelenting.
While they both pulled out their credentials, I backed away, refusing to interfere. However, I gathered a sense that the two men were absorbing the entire scene, gathering information to fortify their case. It was obvious given their reactions, cautious questions. As if they really believed I would incriminate myself. This was a wild goose chase that they intended to lead to a more permanent prosecution. I would need to have a conversation with Edwardo.
“Specifically, why are you here hassling Alessandro?” she pressed on.
“We are here investigating a case, Ms. Wynters, where egregious crimes were committed.”
“They are concerned I violated my parole.”
“Hmmm… Are they now? In what way?”
“It’s come to our knowledge that Mr. Montenegro left town,” Sykes commented, although it was apparent he was backing off from the questions. The eagerness in his voice had all but disappeared.
She glanced in my direction, searching my eyes. “When?”
“Three nights ago,” Walker answered.
“Your information is wrong. Alessandro and I were here enjoying some… quiet time.”
“Do you have any evidence to prove that or witnesses who saw you?”
In my opinion, Walker was digging himself a hole.
She laughed, pressing her hand over her mouth. “Unless you’d like to see one of our veryspecialmovies, then no. As I said, we were enjoying and engaging in some delicious, filthy private time.” She looked from one to the other as she placed her hand on her hip.
Sykes narrowed his eyes, but I could tell he’d put two and two together, recognizing her name.
“That won’t be necessary, at least for now.” Walker closed his notebook without taking a single additional note other than her name. There was no question about what she did or where she lived.
Because they already knew the answers.
“That’s all we need at this time, Mr. Montenegro, but I suggest you remember that you’re required to remain in the state.” Sykes was indeed pressing his luck with me.
“I have no intentions of leaving my beautiful home, agents. I have a wedding to plan. I do hope you’ll consider attending.” It had been a long time since playing with the Feds had been this enjoyable.
“We just might do that,” Sykes said between clenched teeth.
“I’ll have Matteo show you out.” I pressed my finger against her forehead, narrowing my eyes. “Stay here, mygatita. I mean right here. You and I have unfinished business.”
“I like the sound of that,” she purred.
As I walked them to the door, I knew the best thing to do was to escalate the timing as much as possible. I’d have someone arrange for a photographer as well as a glitzy caption in theTimes. After handing them off to Matteo, I returned to the patio, watching her for a few seconds as she stood staring out at the ocean. “Would you like to take a walk?”
“I’d love that.”
I waited as she removed her shoes, tossing them aside then heading toward the stairs leading to the water without waiting for me. I’d never felt this way around anyone else—with a single exception. That had been years before, but it had provided a solid reason why my line of work and an attempt at a relationship didn’t serve my best interests.
