CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

Galen glanced at the clock next to their bed before sticking her tongue out at the ringing phone. She’d spent a great afternoon in bed enjoying Hadley’s romantic mood, so it had to be important if whoever it was decided to bother her here.

“Are you going to glare at it or do you want me to answer?” Hadley said from behind her as she tickled along her abdomen.

“I’ll get it since, if it’s about Kai, I’ll feel guilty for putting it off.” She answered, and Natal started off apologetic but did assure her it was important. “Give us twenty minutes and bring it to my office.”

“Was it about Kai?” Hadley asked as she guided Galen back down and covered her with her body.

She relished the sensation of Hadley’s hand slowly moving up her inner thigh, but they had to go. “Remember where your hand is right now so you can start there later, but we’ve got to shower and meet Natal in a half hour. To answer your question, though, it’s sort of about Kai, or at least what they found.”

“I guess they were ours after all, and Kai will think we’re spying on her no matter how much I deny it.”

“Isn’t it you who always preaches not to guess until we have all the facts? And you won’t have all the facts until you take a shower.” She pushed on Hadley’s chest and laughed when she wouldn’t budge. “You smell like you just had sex.”

“Think if I had another hour or so,” Hadley said and kissed the tip of her nose. “I’d need two showers.”

Since neither of them knew who Natal was bringing with her, they decided to dress a little more formally than they wanted, but Hadley held her hand as they walked toward her office. Their life seldom held this much mystery, but she knew Hadley wasn’t lying, and no one who reported to Hadley would’ve dared to overstep themselves to spy on Kai.

“What’s your best guess?” Hadley asked as they neared the door.

“Sometimes I wonder if we need to speak since you’re so good at reading my mind.” She stopped and gazed up at Hadley, profoundly glad this strong, intelligent woman had agreed to share her life with her. Hadley not only loved and adored her, but she was also fun and the best champion she could’ve hoped for.

“If someone screwed up, she’s not going to believe me, is she?”

“Honey, Kai will believe you because she trusts you more than anyone else in the world, and more importantly, she knows you trust her.”

“I’m glad you’re so optimistic,” Hadley said and kissed her. “Let’s go see whose ass I’m going to kick for this mess.”

Natal was alone, and from the ramrod-straight posture, whatever she had to say wasn’t something she particularly wanted to hear. When Hadley squeezed her fingers she figured that’s how her consort felt as well.

“At ease,” Hadley said and waved Natal to the table Galen used for small meetings with her immediate staff. “You look like you’re about to crack in half.
