“I may be unavailable by phone or messages of any kind, but I want you to know that everything is fine, and if anyone comes here looking for me, you are to tell them I’m on a business trip.”

His lips parted as his face fell.

“And whenever you can’t reach me, I want you to put such trips in my work calendar. If you get too nervous, block out vacation time. Can you do that?”

“No,” he rasped

“Excuse me?” I asked slowly, deliberately, my brow rising despite my efforts

    From my research an hour earlier, I had confirmed that the product Leon had delivered for auction was heading in different directions.Some to black market organ traders, some to very tightly organized sex traders, some to underworld crime organizations to serve one, both, or other capacities, and two were heading to families; homes, as what, I didn’t need to care.This could not be the first, nor would it be the last of such dirty business Leon was into. This, hell, half of this, could get him sentenced to prison for the rest of his natural life.But he had money and connections. There were at least fifty ways he could wriggle out of anything anybody presented in a court of law.That was the problem with courts and laws: too many loopholes.I had to get inside Leon’s home, his office, his world – without touching anything there. I had already been burned thirteen years ago; I didn’t need to experience what the upgraded version of this devil could

    I knew Jade was not with him. My man had been out of the country for a few days.And he had missed giving a report to Jade on Friday? A report on what? His experience? His views on the inspection? That’s a business relationship, however informal or relaxed it may be, I mused.No, my brother was no gem to Jayden Malroy. The architect extraordinaire was taking his add-on role seriously, as he took all things when it came to his fucking family business.Sir Sinclair had made a request, and Jayden Malroy would be damned before he failed the old man.He’s grooming Adrian. It’s his job. I concluded in my mind, exhaling mentally.I paused the videos. All of them.I closed my eyes.I felt his kiss from two hours ago. Warm. Not hot. Paced, deliberate. Not feverish.His eyes when he asked about my client.What was that about? He did the same thing last night. And then this afternoon. What does he mean by givi

    By five p.m., it was time to part ways.I walked them both to their car.As Liam drove away and Adrian sank low in the back seat, I placed my hands in my pockets. My phone buzzed.“Was that good enough?” Bash droned into my ear.“Excellent, sonofabitch!”He laughed.“See you next week.”“Sure thing, and thank you, man.”“Anytime, shit-face.”He hung up. I smiled into the distance.==========Leon’s POV.Something is up with Jade. I can’t put my finger on it, but it’s there, and it’s in my fucking face, I mused.How could he kiss me like that? Where did he get the balls? Fuck! Those eyes of his! Shit! I wanted to take him with me. Drag him by the fucking hair all the way to the car and bang him as the driver took us to my home. Then I would have had him dragged out, naked, and locked to my bed where I would have him till he begged me to stop. Then

    Liam croaked. I gave the man extra points for not doing a backflip before the giant touched him.“I'm Sebastian Norwood. This is my place,” he said courteously, holding both Liam’s hands and eyes.The reserved guard blinked at him, his mouth falling open, but no sound formed.“Oh, no, please. It’s my honor to let the public experience the riches of knowledge and history all in one place. If I didn’t do this, I would have two Disneyland parks, and honestly, do we really need more theme parks?” Sebastian droned as if he were answering a question from the poor man.Liam pressed his lips together.“Tell me, what do you think so far? I could give you a private tour.” He was sitting now, in my chair. I wanted to take a picture of Liam’s face for posterity, but my mind would have to do.A scraping sound drew all three of our eyes.Adrian was fuming. It was an even more precious sight.I bit my tongue. I needed to see this.“Wha

    Jayden’s POV.Liam… Good man. I mused as he sauntered in.There’s no way he would have left the boy with me. Not after the sports club. Not in a million years.But I had also just confirmed something else.Leon didn’t know. Or, more accurately, Liam was not Leon’s man. His allegiance was to the boy’s father, even though he was clearly not sharing everything with Sir Sinclair, for his ward’s sake.Very good man; I ruminated as my secretary’s face flashed in my mind. I almost smiled.I shook my head mentally, and when my eyes focused, he was staring at me, hands in his pockets, shoulders rolling.I blinked and averted my gaze to the exit.I took a step forward, and he blocked my path with his body.I raised a brow.“What?” I asked, barely able to keep the irritation out of my tone.“You don’t seem happy to see me,” he droned. I nearly closed my eyes; that fucking voice of his should be illeg

    His sheltered life, and the secret he was so concerned about, kept him away from large groups during daylight hours.Today, he was not only outside, but he was also in the company of a single person – a male. And while I don’t spend my time bragging about my looks, I was confident my outfit wasn’t helping him relax.My long-sleeved shirt and my trousers were loose. But the cut and style spoke volumes. The shirt was white, flowy. No buttons, but sharply cut at the neck, open to just before my chest began. Every step forward had the cloth define my outline, while revealing nothing.It was tucked into my equally white pants, giving me a slimmer silhouette.The pants were loose above, but tapered to a slim fit at the ankle. No belt. Gurkha styled, trousers with neat lines.My shoes were leather slip-ons. White, with a gold button on the side, the size of a penny.I stood out, but in a wholesome, tasteful way.I had dressed for him, the on

    His mouth opened, but not for me; I went in anyway. I tasted the blood as I searched for his tongue that was avoiding mine.I burst inside him, again, and his body spasmed, but there was nothing but sweat on my stomach. A dry orgasm. His second for the night.I pulled out and fell o

    “Leon, tell me seriously, do you think I’m that kid you knew? I mean, take a good look,” I leaned forward, his throat bobbed. My eyes searched his, but I kept my expression neutral.“Do I look like your puppet?” I whispered, as if I was saying something that no other ear should hear, as if

    “I’ll take care of –”“Pleeeassee,” he stressed, his face red, his breath coming in short gasps.I sat back, still on him.“What’s wrong?” I tilted my head slightly, my shoulders slouching.“This, Jayden. This

    An energy drink, a towel, and a few other items I had treated in advance – lotions, plasters, disinfectant sprays – in case he managed to avoid the water, were also ready; insurance for what had to get done.This wasn’t about pleasure or messing with the kid for fun; I wa
