Warren took the envelope from her and pocketed it.

“Where did you get that, sweetheart?” Brooks asked casually.

“It was waiting on me when I checked in. The note said it was for the dark-haired man on my next flight.”

“Does this happen a lot?” Warren asked.

“I gave up trying to understand client requests about two weeks after I started this job. I see nothing, and I didn’t hear a thing.”

“Darlin’, I have a feeling we are going to get along just fine,” Brooks winked.

Warren shook his head when the woman nodded. His spotter would be renewing his membership to the mile high club with the curvy stewardess. Brooks’ exploits quit bothering him a long time ago. Besides, he had more important things to worry about. Two more confirmed completions, and he was going on a mission of his own. His Petal was coming home with him. Warren just hoped she didn’t kill him before he could explain. Staring at the screen of his phone, he watched her working until the pilot announced it was time to take off.

He waited until Brooks distracted Evette before opening the envelope.

Soon.

It was the only word printed on the inside of the blank stationery. Warren folded the note and stuck it back in his pocket. He was tired of this endless cat-and-mouse game. Two more contracts before he could hunt this asshole down. Two more, and it was time to get his life back.

Chapter 8

“Earth to Rose.” Franny waved her hand in front of Rose’s face.

“Sorry,” Rose shook her head.

“What’s up with you? Is one of the men bothering you?”

“No,” she answered quickly. “I mean no more than having someone watching your every move would.”

Franny rolled her eyes. “Get used to it. These men are the biggest bunch of tattletales I have ever seen. You can’t get away with the tiniest thing without one of them seeing you and running to tell the rest.”

“It isn’t that. Well, I don’t think it is that. Every once in a while, I feel like someone is watching me.”

“It’s me, Rosey.”

“Ladybug, what can I get you?”

“I have a bunch of stuff with your name on it.”

“If it is in your pants, I’m not interested, and I wouldn’t consider your junk a bunch.”

“A grocery delivery. Although if we are talking pants, those jeans make my cock hard just by looking at you.”

“I didn’t order anything. Did you order anything?” Rose asked Franny.

“I don’t care who ordered it as long as I don’t have to cook dinner. Tank has been holed up in his office all day. Maybe it was him. I’ll go thank him, and you can see what we got.”

Franny was gone before Rose could say anything.

“Someday I’m going to be that lucky.”

“Ladybug, Tank will make you disappear if you hit on Franny.”

“What? No,” Roach frowned at her. “I want a woman as devoted to me as Franny is to Prez.”

“Aww,” Rose smiled. “Look at you being all romantic. I’m sure the future Mrs. Ladybug will be ecstatic to have you bend her over the bar.”

“If she looks as hot as Franny does at fifty, I’ll be fucking her on every surface in this clubhouse.”
