I ran a hand over her hip, and felt her breath stutter. She moved against me, and I swallowed a curse.
“Let me go through the books on your shipping company.” Her voice was breathy.
“Done. When you bring me a warrant.”
“You have to stop touching me.”
“Now that, I won’t do.” I pressed my lips to her neck.
Even with the loud music, I heard her small moan.
“I don’t think you want me to stop either,” I murmured.
What was it about her? She was beautiful, yes. Smart, absolutely. Maybe it was that drive and dedication?
She pulled away and turned. Our gazes met. Her eyes were wide.
“I have to go.” Then she spun and stalked through the crowd.
I watched her go. I couldn’t drag my eyes away. I hated that I saw several men turn to watch her.
Releasing a breath, I headed for the bar. I needed to do a little digging. I needed to make sure London didn’t put herself in danger.
As I waited at the bar, I felt someone step up on my left, then on my right.
I stiffened. I was penned in.
“Who was that?” Beauden asked.
“Whoever she was,” Dante said, “one, she walked away from Kavner. And two, he couldn’t take his eyes off her.”
“Or his hands,” Beau added.
I signaled for a drink, and felt my other two nosy brothers join the party. Reath was staring at me while Colt leaned on the bar.
“Her name is Treasury Agent Coleman,” Colt said. “She’s got a hard-on for Kav. Thinks he’s a criminal.”
“A Treasury agent?” Reath shook his head. “You sure you know what you’re doing?”
The bartender slid a whiskey across the bar, and I smiled my thanks. I took a long swallow of the liquor. “I’m not a criminal. She’ll work that out soon enough.” I glanced at them all. “I like her. I plan to enjoy her.”
Dante cocked a brow. “Just another passing dalliance?”
“I like variety.” Nothing and no one held my interest for long. I enjoyed beautiful women, and I made no apology for that. “She’s digging into money laundering here in New Orleans. I plan to keep her safe while she does.”
Colt watched me for a beat. “He’s fucked, and he doesn’t know it.”
I straightened. “What?”
Dante nodded. “This is going to be fun.”
“Fuck you all.” I set my glass down. “Now if you’ll excuse me, I have more whiskey to taste.”

LONDON
It was too quiet without my sister. I missed her already. She’d messaged me to say her flight had been uneventful and Phoenix was hot.
