between Simone
and his friend. Callum looked totally taken with her.
He understood what his friend saw. She was sex on legs, but she was hesitant.
There was no way she was going to make life easy for them. He finished his food
taking little glances at the woman eating noodles.
After all the women he’d dated he was waiting for the panic over the
calories or some comment about going for a run like most of the other women
said during eating. She did neither. Her gaze would travel around the room as
she ate. Nothing stopped her enjoyment of her food.
“I think it is time I went home,” she said, putting the carton down.
“I’ve got stuff to do and a resume to sort through.”
“I thought I told you it wouldn’t look good,” Cole said.
“For when this crap is all over. I don’t like the thought of
spending the rest of my days as either of your plaything. I want my own life
away from all this.”
“You’ll be in the public eye for quite some time.” Callum spoke up, his gaze never straying from her face.
Cole had to admit to himself that it
was a battle to not watch her tits. She really had a good handful of breast.
“Maybe you can break up with me, and
I’ll cause a scene. Everyone wants the next big story. Screw a model or
something just to get me out of the picture. I don’t care. How do I get out of
here?” she asked, turning toward Cole.
“I’ll drive you home.” He finished
his food then made his way down to the parking lot. Callum stayed behind with great reluctance. Cole saw it. He wanted to make sure Simone
got home safely.
“Can I sit in the front seat?”
He chuckled. “Of
course.”
She climbed in beside him. Her skirt
rode up her legs, and he couldn’t help admire the fullness of her curves. She
really did have a body to die for. He wondered how she’d feel wrapped around
his dick.
Cutting the thought off, Cole but
the car into reverse and started to pull out of their space. The thickness of
his cock made him move in his seat. From the sight of her alone, he was hard as
rock.
“How long have you two known each
other?” she asked.
“You’re going to make small talk
with me.”
“We’ve got potentially an hour’s
drive back to my place, depending on traffic. If you want to spend the whole
time in silence then do so. Me, I hate silence. I feel like talking, and I’m
talking about you. You should be pleased.”
He burst out laughing. “You’re
trying to get information out of me about Callum .”
“Nope. Not interested about that asshole.”
“From what I heard on Friday night,
you were really into that asshole,” he said. Simone didn’t even blush. He’d have
to give her credit for that.
“On Friday he was giving me what I
needed. Today, he’s taking back everything he gave me on Friday. I’m pissed,
and I don’t like it.”
Cole stopped at a traffic light and
waited for the people to cross. “You know, this could be dangerous for you as
well.”
“How could it possibly be dangerous
for me? This is insane. You dragged me into this, and I’ve got no say in what I
do.”
He reached over tapping her thigh.
“Whoever is stealing from the company, they’re trying to make you take the
fall. You’re in danger because now they know your connection to Callum , it could get ugly.”
The traffic light turned to green,
and he pulled off.
“You sound concerned.”
“You don’t know me, Simone.”
“You’re right. I don’t know you, but I hear the concern in your voice. A
lot of people sound the same when they are concerned.”
His sigh echoed around the car. “Look, Callum is my best friend. I never want anything to happen to him. In
the past women have been hurt because of our association. You could be
hurt.”
“And yet you’re the one who started this.”
He couldn’t argue with that. The moment he’d seen that smug smile on her
lips as he passed her along the corridor he’d wanted to see her again. Who she
was didn’t matter to him. He’d
