The rendezvous point is five minutes away. He’s there when I arrive.

“Well, don’t you look like one of those sexy librarians today?” He gives me an up and down gawk that makes my stomach curdle.

I hand him the envelope. “Just take your money and fuck off.”

He does indeed take the money, but he declines to fuck off. As I start to turn, he grabs my arm, his dirty fingers digging into my skin. “How’s your boyfriend? You tell him about us yet?”

“There’s no ‘us,’ and no need for him to know a damn thing about you.” The keep your fucking mouth shut that I don’t say is implied by my glare.

He cocks his head and squints like he needs a translator to make sense of simple English. “Is that so?”

I rip my arm out of his grasp. “I have to go.”

“I can’t wait until this all comes out in the open and none of us are hiding who we are anymore. Won’t that be nice?”

My instinct is to flip him off but I don’t even have time for that. I have to get back to the diner and over to the stadium for tonight’s game. I’m not quite late, and Beck got his pregame sex this morning, but he knows where I sit and he’ll be worried if I’m not there before the puck drops.

So I break my number one rule—Never turn your back to the enemy—and put the slimy bastard in my rearview mirror.

I’m holding my breath when I walk back into the diner. But when I re-emerge from the rear hallway, Monroe and the security guard are happily chatting. I let a relieved exhale escape my lips.

It’s fine. Everything is fine.

For now.
