NOAH

“What’s wrong?” I asked as Ford stomped back into the office, phone in his hand and a glare on his face. I wanted to reach out and cup his chin, force him to look at me, but we were at work. And though we were blending everything else in our lives, we decided it would be easier if we didn’t make out at work, because we were the bosses, and we didn’t need to screw everything up in every aspect of our lives.

“I swear to God, I’m going to scream if I have to deal with that woman one more time.”

I raised a brow, grateful that we didn’t have any clients in the building. But it wasn’t like Ford to blurt things without thinking.

“Was it her again? I didn’t know you have her on the docket.”

“I don’t. Daisy helped her yesterday, and apparently she wasn’t happy. She somehow got my phone number and won’t stop texting me.”

Alarmed, I sat up straighter. “What the hell? We’re unlisted for a reason.”

“Yeah well, it’s my personal number, and you know we use our numbers for every fucking thing to log in. I guess I’m listed somewhere, and she found me.”

I cursed and held out my hand for his phone. “Let me see.”

“You want to see her texting me and raging that I’m not helping her?”

“Yes, and then you’re going to tell Daisy about it, we’re going to stop working for Jocelyn Price.”

Ford ran a hand over his face and slid over the phone. “I hate this. I don’t know why she suddenly either has it in for me or decided that we meant something more to each other than her being a client that I set up security for. I don’t want her to feel unsafe, but dammit, it’s getting weird.”

I rubbed my temple as Gus walked in, box in hand.

“What’s that?” I asked, exhausted already. It was a long day, and I still needed to go work with my clients after they had postponed our appointment four times.

“Just some of the equipment that we pulled from the last appointment. It’s bugging me, and I want to figure out if I can fix it.”

Gus was a whizz with technology, and I nodded. “Sounds good. Do you need help?”

“You have an appointment to go to, don’t you?” Ford asked as he held out his hand for his phone. I had already copied everything over, scowling at the texts demanding that Ford help her in every way possible.

No, we would not be working with Jocelyn Price anymore. And I would make sure that either I or Daisy would handle it. I knew Kane and Kingston would as well, but since I was here, and Daisy had been the one to work with her last, it would be one of us.

Nobody hurt Ford. He was mine, if only for the moment, so I wasn’t going to let anyone hurt him.

“You’re working with Henderson again today?” Ford asked, and I sighed.

“How do you know?”

“Because you get this little pulse at your temple whenever you think of him.
