Chapter Sixteen

Tess

As far as days in court go, this one kicked ass. As I’d expected, we had a working lunch so I could coach my client one last time before I put her on the stand. So long as she didn’t royally screw up, we had this one in the bag, but I never assume anything in court.

I managed to give Bobcat a quick thank-you kiss without anyone seeing, but there wasn’t time for more. He said he’d see me when he came to bed, and he was gone.

Could this actually work? He didn’t seem upset that I couldn’t have lunch with him. Would that last?

Meanwhile, Mac gave me a heads up when the news of Andretti’s embarrassing information went so viral, even the news stations were talking about it. Images of him walking down the street looking terribly chummy with a known murderous drug lord had gone out, along with a few facts the senator probably didn’t want known.

Now, to wait for his response.

I focused fully on my client and the court case when lunch was over. I’d hired people to keep me alive, so I needed to trust them to do it. My inner animal was focused on who was lying, who was pleased, who was distressed. She was also keyed in to the jury, and on who we still needed to convince. Eye contact while talking to them, unless that seemed to turn them off. There’s so much to making sure you win your case, and my inner animal fully understood what I needed from her in these situations.

She also smelled the wolves at our back, watching over us. This let her focus more intently on the trial as well.

Thankfully, we wrapped it up in a day, and the jury came back with a verdict around three. We won, of course. And yes, I was aware my client was guilty and I’d just gotten her off, but her ex-husband had needed killing. Seriously. Dude had broken her jaw two months before, and while she was in the hospital, he’d roughed up their fifteen-year-old son. So yes, I got her off and I felt good about it. The bastard was worm food and she’d made it happen. Good for her.

I followed my guards’ protocols to get into the vehicle so a long-range sniper wouldn’t have a shot. I sat in the back seat with my eyes closed, Mac driving and Ranger beside me instead of up front. A few deep breaths, and I was ready for whatever came next.

“Tonight will be your last night as the MC’s guest. We’d like to move you around the city, but having Bobcat come to you is a security risk once we relocate you. He isn’t likely to be followed, but if he is...”

“Then he won’t come to me. Whatever you need to do to keep me safe.”

“If you want him with you, we’ll work that into our plans. I suppose my question is whether you want us to do that or not.
