After grabbing two sodas, he headed back into the den. It wasn’t very far from the kitchen, but it was long enough that he had time to realize how lucky he was with that woman. She was right where he was so often, and always just as surprised to see him as he was to see her.
She might be a good actress, but not that good. In fact, she couldn’t hide her emotions at all; her face showed everything that ran through her mind.
In the den, Louisa was no longer watching TV, unless she was watching from the back of her head. She was facing the pervert, and not just facing him—she was on his lap, and they were kissing.
Dropping everything he was carrying, or throwing it all, he rushed the couch and grabbed the kid by the shoulder, pulling him away from his sister. The kid’s hands were so caught up under his sister’s shirt that Jonas thought it had ripped as she fell to the floor.
Slamming the kid into the coffee table, it splintered under the force. All he could see was what the pervert had been doing to his innocent sister. His only goal was to keep her that way.
“Jonas, let him go!” Louisa yelled from the floor.
“In a minute,” he mumbled as he drew back his fist. The kid shut his eyes, seeing what was going to happen and having no way to stop it.
“Jonas, what are you doing?” Judith demanded from far away.
Before he could punch the punk, something barreled into him, knocking him off the kid and onto the floor. Once he figured out what was happening, he realized that Bea Bradford had tackled him. Currently, she was holding his body down with hers, which was no inconvenience until she sat up.
Her eyes didn’t meet with his, and she didn’t say anything to him. That she had come to Brett’s defense was confusing; did she know him?
“Miss Bradford, no need for dramatics. Jonas, leave Brett alone. You’ve been mad ever since he moved in. You’re just a guest in this house, Jonas, so act like it,” Judith chastised, then turned to Bea and added, “Brett just moved in over the weekend. He and an old family friend, Ross, are staying with us as they go to college.”
“He was kissing Louisa,” Jonas defended himself.
“She kissed me back, man.” Brett sat up finally, realizing the danger was over.
“I kissed him, Jonas. Are you going to hit me?” Louisa stated angrily as she got to her feet.
“You’re thinking about nothing but sex.” He pointed at Brett, who was still on the floor. Jonas had been that kid once.
“Maybe I am!” Louisa yelled at him before Brett could defend himself, but her words caused the kid to smirk.
“Louisa May, do not talk about sex. Nobody wants to hear about it,” Judith argued.
“Louisa May?” the redhead whispered beside him, suddenly staring at his sister. “Louisa May Alcott?”
“Louisa, go to your room. Jonas and Brett, clean up the coffee table. Miss Bradford, we have menus to create.” Judith was over the fight it seemed. Apparently, she didn’t care that Louisa had said she was thinking about sex, and there were two single men in the house not two doors down from the room she had just been sent to.
Getting to his feet, he realized that Bea was still watching Louisa as she left the room in a huff. Grabbing her hand, he pulled her to her feet. She was shorter than he remembered close up, but then again, they hadn’t spent a lot of time comparing height before.
“You have menus, Chef Buzz-Buzz.” His words snapped her back from wherever her mind had went.
“Leave me alone. I don’t know you, and you do not know me,” she hissed and walked out of the room.
Except there was no way he didn’t know her, but he did want to know her better.
