didn’t want to be with me. They were meant to be together she has just not realized it yet. Granted it had been only a few days since they had first spotted each other but he felt that she was his from the start.
“Mrs. Homan.”
“It’s Laney.” She smiled with all the seduction she had as she played with his tie.
“Mrs. Homan I need to converse with my colleagues and get back to you but thank you for your insight into Elizabeth,” he said as he pulled his tie from her grip. He was not in the mood for her shit. He didn’t know if she could tell he had interest in Elizabeth but her telling him about helping Elizabeth become sexier was not helping her cause.
She got off the top of his desk and walked around to get closer, bending slightly trying to give him a good view of her fake tits and purred, “but we didn’t really go over anything. I don’t want to go to prison. Is there anything I can do to get you, I mean me off?”
“You can behave. You propositioning men and fucking half of them is bound to be used against you.” He stood up, fucking annoyed with this broad, but now she was too close. He actually felt trapped by the barracuda.
“You could use this against me.” She tried to reach for his junk but he pushed her hand away. “I don’t have ti me for you to try and assault me. I have someone to use it with and I don’t double dip, so back off.” He was livid now, the bitch didn’t quit.
He walked her out of his office and to the bank of elevators, “We will contact you for our next meeting.” He knocked on Cal’s door with the Homan case file in hand.
“Jackson , what’s up?” Caleb lifted his eyes up from the file in front of him. It was the one the new attorney was going to be working on, he wanted to see if he could help her out. When she interviewed he could not take his eyes off her and he was praying to God that Jackson wouldn’t go after her. Luckily Jackson seemed to not even notice she was female let alone a beauty.
“I am going to be straight forward with you. I want off the Homan case.” His look was so serious that Caleb found it comical and decided to fuck with his buddy.
“Could it have anything to do with the hot ass jailbait that was just here?” Uh oh, the boss man looked like he was going to give me a foot up my ass. I still kept the smirk on my face. I knew he wouldn’t do anything unless I really crossed the line but I wouldn’t. I saw the way they looked at each other. Little Miss was clearly under the mistaken impression that Jackson was fucking the step-mother, which was telling, so was the fact that he tried to correct that assumption. Jackson was looking territorial throughout the whole meeting and that was new; so she must be someone special.
Jackson practically growled at him. “First of all don’t talk about her like that and yes it is.”
“Wow dude, calm down. I knew you had it in for her but damn, relax. Why do you think I left the room to take my imaginary call? It was only my alert to pick up my dry cleaning. You two needed time to talk. I never thought I’d see the day when you let a woman affect you like this. It’s really that bad?” Jackson nodded.
Walking up to his sideboard he poured both of them a drink. “Here , I think you need this man.” Jackson took the drink and shook his head. “Here is the case file for her. I think there is something funny going on with this one; something is off. Look it over and let me know if you need me to do anything. Now I am going to actually get some work done then I am going to look for my wayward girl and make her understand what her new reality will be.”
Chapter 4
I have been trying Tommy’s cell since I left Jackson’s office. I had to leave him a message telling him we need to talk. I knew things were going to go south with Jackson if I didn’t tell Tommy it’s over, but I can’t reach him. I am starting to panic. This is so frustrating. These past four months have been a total
