She saw him lick his lips, and that flood of wetness only got her panties wetter.
“Be careful who you tease, Calyx. At some point, it might get you in some interesting predicaments. I only have so much control. One day, I might not have any. You never know with me.”
“Control is overrated, Remmy. I’m not afraid of you. You are one of the good guys. I can see the heart and yours is damaged. Like I said, I’ll wait. One day, you’ll come around.”
Oh, he didn’t doubt it.
Like right now. He was picturing himself between her thighs buried balls deep in her body.
Neither spoke.
Finally, he did.
“We need the names of the mercenaries. The Hunters are moving on Artemis before she sends them to slaughter. Do you know who she hired to take the lawyer, his daughter, and the cop couple?”
She said nothing.
“The person who took them raped the women and did the same to the men. He tortured them, and he had his buddies use the college-age daughter and wife. Please. For me.”
She knew why he asked.
Normally, she didn’t want to cause war, but she knew that Remington took that kind of thing personally.

He wanted insurance that she’d live.
Then, he’d take a chance. The family told him he would be safe, and all he wanted was that sign that she was meant to be his.
Hopping down from the stool, she tossed her hair over her shoulders and knew what she needed to do.
“Follow me.”
When he didn’t move, she laughed.
“Remmy, come to my office. I’m not going to tie you up and molest you. Well, unless that’s your kink. I have what you want.”
God.
He bet that she did.
What he wanted was to take her in some wild, wet romp in her office.
What he could do was pray that he was able to get out of there and back to Chartres.
Jerking off last night as she touched herself had taken the edge off, but not nearly enough. In fact, it made him wilder. Because now, he knew what he wanted.
HER.
