Chapter 641

Jake’s attention was pulled back by the gray-haired suit extending a hand, some feeble attempt at agreeing to a lunch date for a business chat. Jake hadn’t even been listening, so overly aware of the warm, soft hand in his and the way Emma was curling gently around his side. He wanted to have more contact with her than this. He wanted to wrap himself up in her. Pulling her in closer, Jake tucked her slender arm under his and grasped her hand a little firmer, closer but still not close enough to be able to deal with these idiots holding them up. Right now, he would agree to pitch a million at any stupid idea as long as they shut the fuck up and got out of his way.
Finally, the suit moved, and Jake moved to get them going again. They didn’t get far before another one slid in front, blocking their passage. Jake almost yelled at him in sheer frustration.
For fuck’s sake.
