“What’s got you thinking, Bryant?”
Damn, he can be sexy when he’s not so serious at work.
“Us,” I reply, my lips inches from his chiseled chin.
“Is there gonna be an ‘us’?”
I can feel his hard cock pressing against my hip. Something about his green eyes makes me question everything. I don’t like all the answers I’m getting.
“There shouldn’t be.”
“Why not?” His lips draw close, very close.
“Because we work together and have cases to solve.”
“And because she’s still in love with me.”
A voice fires from the shadows, shooting straight into my heart.
“What the fuck?” Jameson’s head snaps around.
I wrench away from his touch, knowing exactly what I’ll see the second I peer around him.
Redix.
He’s leaning against the wall beside the elevator to my building.
Waiting on me.
CHAPTER SEVENTEEN
MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT by Elley Duhé
Nope. I made a thousand rules about why this can’t happen.
I pull away from Jameson, rage hitting me like a bullet.
“Leave, Redix.” How dare he explode into my life again? “You had your chance. And left. As usual. We’re done.”
“I need to talk to you, Cade.” He doesn’t budge.
“She said you need to leave.” Jameson’s steps threaten a confrontation. “Do it, or I’ll make you.”
“I’d like to see you fucking try.” Redix’s sneers can piss off the Pope. “Come on. Bring it, big boy.”
Redix has two inches and lots of muscle on Jameson, but Jameson has skills like me, ones untrained muscles can’t fight.
This can’t happen. Not again. Not another fight over me.
“Both of you put your dicks back in your pants,” I snap. “We’re not playing whose is bigger because mine is, and I’m not dealing with any shit tonight.”
Jameson touches my arm. “I’ll stay if you need me.”
“She doesn’t need you, dude.” Redix keeps poking the bear. “And she never will.”
That charges Jameson toward Redix, but I grab his arm and turn him around.
“Stop!” I gun my eyes up at his. “Don’t be baited by him. Just go. I’ve got this.”
