Tag attributed it to a purposely planted leak that
Logan and Luke were interested in investing.
“ That’s what you think.”
Logan’s tone was still firm. “Find out what she knows.”
Tag nodded, knowing Logan couldn’t see him.
He fully intended to pay Ms. Thorne a visit soon.
Very soon.
Half an hour later, Tag
was walking into the posh offices of Sensations, Inc. He hadn’t
bothered to call and make an appointment because he knew damn well
McKenna wouldn’t have made time to see him anyway. So, he decided
to surprise her.
“ Mr. Murphy,” Whisper,
McKenna’s extremely attentive assistant didn’t sound all that
excited as she greeted him, but she also didn’t seem
surprised.
“ Whisper.” He still had a hard time calling her that, even if
it was her name. Who the hell named their
child Whisper?
Then again, he wasn’t one
to talk. Tag wasn’t a particularly common name either, and since it
wasn’t short for anything else, people were often interested in how
it came about.
The story his mother and
father had told him wasn’t one he cared to share with anyone. He
was appalled enough when they informed him that, at the time of his
conception, they were particularly fond of chasing one another.
Around the bedroom.
“ She
available?”
“ Actually...”
“ Thanks. I know where her
office is.” Tag smiled, half expecting Whisper to try and stop him,
but she didn’t. However, he did hear her as she gave McKenna the
heads up via telephone that he was coming down the hall.
“ Mr. –” McKenna was
standing at the door waiting for him.
Tag cut her off before she
could greet him fully, grabbing her arm as she shrieked, then
slamming her door and pressing her against it before she could
catch her next breath. Lowering his mouth to her ear, Tag crushed
his body against hers, careful to make sure he didn’t hurt her, but
ensuring she felt his presence in every cell in her
body.
He damn sure felt her presence. For weeks
now she had invaded his thoughts at the most inopportune times,
making his dick hard as all of the things he wanted to do to her
replayed over and over in his head.
“ No need for pleasantries,
McKenna.” Tag breathed in her sweet, addictive scent, and was
immediately reminded of the last time he was there in her
office.
It had been an innocent
visit. At Logan’s request, Tag met with McKenna to get a feel for
what her intentions were, in regards to any stories related to Club
Destiny. For about a week, she had been hinting at future details,
but to this day, she still hadn’t written anything about the club.
Based on this morning’s article, it appeared she’d taken a more
personal interest. On one hand, that was a good thing for his
client, but for him personally, it was proving to be a bit of a
problem.
A physical one.
“ Why –” The catch in her
breath was evident and he knew he’d taken her by surprise, but this
was something else.
“ Don’t play dumb with me,
darlin’. You want to find out what toys I keep in my dungeon? I’ll
be more than happy to show you, under one condition,” he growled
low in her ear, allowing his lips to brush lightly against the soft
flesh of her lobe, using his teeth to nip lightly until he felt her
shiver.
Son of a
bitch .
This woman was bound and
determined to push him, and he knew it. So why was he letting
her?
“ What’s the condition?”
she asked, still breathless.
“ I get to tie you up and
use them on you.” He slid his knee between her thighs, wishing like
hell she’d worn one of those short skirts she favored. Instead,
she’d opted for jeans, but even through the denim, he could feel
the heat of her pussy against his thigh.
When she put her palms on
his chest and pushed, Tag conceded, backing away from her, but not
turning away.
“ Who the fuck do you think
you are?” McKenna bit out, glaring at him with those exotic
eyes.
“ Me? Honey, I’m not the one posting
lies about you all over the fucking
