Chapter 16

• Alec took her time going back, she needed to settle down and erase what had just happened from her mind. Like that will happen. The man knows how to kiss. I’ve never been kissed like that... Bringing her attention back to the coffee maker, she crossed her arms and glared at it. If Bill would actually get here, she could take some of her frustration out on him. How could he screw up the damn date on the report? That was unheard of. Her aches and bruises were for nothing, the scum was released all because her so-called partner didn’t know what day it was.
• Grabbing the coffee as soon as it was done, she stood blowing on it. You’re procrastinating. She knew she was. Shaking it off, she turned to head back downstairs. A hot kiss doesn’t change anything, you still need to get this done, and then he won’t be... The last time a man had distracted her from her job was... Pausing halfway down the stairs, Alec cursed under her breath. No. It couldn’t be. Taking a deep breath, she hurried downstairs and almost ran through the door to Brent and Reid’s office.
• “Where are the sheets?” She ignored the startled look the three men gave her and went over to the table, flipping through the stack they’d already written off because there were only two brothers.
