?”
    “Yes,” she snorted. “You’re not getting jealous, are you?”  
    “Of course I am. He’s there with you and well, I’m here.”
    “You could fly to me. You have a private plane.” Could I? I’d already attended all the important meetings this week. Maybe I could surprise her. It would only be for a few days. I could put Miles in his place, too.
    He didn’t like me because he had feelings for Jade. It was written all over his face when we first met. I’d told him that I was releasing her from The Seductors. He didn’t seem to like the idea at first, until I explained that he would be moving, too.
    “I wish I could, Beautiful,” I sighed, pulling up my appointments on my computer. I only had four tomorrow, and I was sure Sylvia would be able to reschedule them for next week. Most were overseas conference calls anyway. I could do a few on the jet if I had to.
    “Shame. My bed is awfully big here. It was so hot last night that I had to sleep naked too.” The little minx.
    “Miles better not still be listening.”
    “He’s not. I’m alone.”
    “You’re not the only one that can tease over the phone.”
    “I don’t have time for your dirty mouth right now. I need to focus.”
    “My dirty mouth wants to do a lot of things to you. In fact, it wishes it was in between your legs right now.”
    “Oh God!”
    “I miss tasting you, Beautiful.”
    “I need to go. Bye.”
    “If you must,” I snorted, knowing she was getting flustered. “I love you.”
    “I love you, too. You’ll call me before you go to sleep later, right?”
    “Of course. I can’t sleep without hearing your voice. I’ll speak to you later, Beautiful.” Jade sighed, saying goodbye before we both hung up.
    I reached for my intercom. “Yes, Mr. Kirkham?” Sylvia asked.
    “I need you to cancel all my meetings until Monday, and can you arrange the jet please?”
    “Where will you be heading?”
    “Washington DC.”
    “I’ll get to it right away.” To an outsider, I may have looked like a lovesick fool. Oh, who was I kidding? I was a lovesick fool. I needed to see Jade. A week was too long to be without her.

    “This is a pleasant surprise, Oliver.” General Johnson greeted me once I’d gone through the security checks.
    “How is Jade doing?” I asked, shaking his hand.
    “You were right about her. She’s invaluable. She’s given us so much information already.”
    “Where is she?”
    General Johnson motioned toward one of his staff. “Jones, can you escort Mr. Kirkham to Miss Phillips’ office, please?” I followed the guy down corridor after corridor. How did Jade not get lost in this place? When we got there, her office was empty. After asking around, I discovered she’d gone to get some fresh air.
    My heart was racing as I followed my guide outside. I could see Jade in the distance with her back to me, sitting at a table with Miles. This guy was starting to piss me off. He must have alerted her to my presence because she suddenly turned around. She quickly got up and rushed over to me.
    “You came!” she gasped, falling into my arms as I picked her up off the ground and swung her around, kissing the breath out of her.
    “You seem to have an effect on me. I can’t keep away,” I whispered as our lips parted.
    “What about your appointments?”   
    “There was nothing that couldn’t wait until Monday,” I smirked, running my hands through her hair. Miles had finally reached us. “It’s good to see you again, Miles.” I greeted, holding a hand out to him while my other arm was still wrapped securely around Jade.  
    “You, too, Mr. Kirkham,” he mumbled. “If you’ll excuse me, I have work to do.”
    “Was it something I said?” I frowned at Jade once he’d gone. Secretly, I was pleased that he had run off.
    “You intimidate him,” she grinned. “Though I have no idea why. You’re not that scary. Even I could beat your ass.”
    “I have no doubt that you could.” Pulling her toward
