Chapter 5
âWhat?â Brandy had to pull her eyes away from Lica when he came into her office. Good lord, if he looked this good with well-fitting clothing on, then naked, heâd be, âBrandy, is something wrong with what Iâm wearing?â
âNo. I just never thought of you in a suit before.â He grinned, and she turned her back to him. âYouâre more of a jeans person like Iâve seen you wear since Iâve met you. But Lenord was correct. A suit off the rake would never hang on you, right.â
Embarrassed when he laughed, she went into the conference room off from her office and started putting the files in front of each chair that was set close to the long table. He asked if he could help, and she pointed to where the bottled water was and asked him to put them on the table.
Brandy could only carry about four, maybe five bottles of water to the table. Lica picked up the case in one hand and used his free one to set the bottles where she told him. Then he put out napkins to go under them when he found a stack of them, too. Having him around was going to be helpful in so many ways, she thought to herself. He asked her if she had a moment that he could talk to her.
âI have two questions for you. One, Iâm not in a hurry to get an answer, but the second one is, do you want me to have any opinions in this meeting? Am I going to beânot being mean but like a boy toy to you while here? I didnât mean boy toy. I meant a heavy, someone to keep you safe. The way you looked at me when I got here, thatâs what made me think of theânever mind. My mouth got ahead of my head, and I apologize for that. The first question is about getting cameras set up around the ranch to keep an eye on the cattle.â She asked him if heâd ever been to a business meeting. âJust when I get turned down for a loan. The banker here, Howard Slaven, he wonât allow our kind to open an account unless itâs for a business. Even then, heâs very particular about what we take the money out for. I donât know why but thatâs just what he does. I sometimes wonder if he has a list of all the shifters in town and keeps a daily accounting of their accounts. I donât know, I guess thatâs silly.â
âHe needs a good swift kick to his head is what he needs. When I was putting money in yours and your brothersâ accounts, he didnât have anything to do with it because I did it on line. I wonder what he would have said to me had I come in and done it.â Lica told her that he simply wouldnât allowed her to do it. âSo itâs doubtful that he knows the balance to your accounts.
