Chapter Fifteen

Mack

I looked at my watch and groaned. “I’m not sure how much more of this I can take today.” We had been watching video surveillance for hours in an attempt to gather evidence against a murder suspect, and were no further ahead than when we started.

“I couldn’t agree with you more. I wouldn’t mind getting home at a reasonable time tonight. I haven’t gotten to spend quality time with Kara in a few days, if you know what I mean,” Jacob said with a wink.

“Then let’s get one of the interns to keep looking through these and flag anything that looks suspicious. I don’t think we’re going to find anything anyway. Witness accounts place him in the area an hour earlier than our current spot in this footage. At this point, it’s just a precaution.”

“Works for me.”

We walked out of the small, cramped room. It felt good to not feel like a cooped up sardine any longer. Once we had our coats, we stopped at the front desk to talk to Regina about putting an intern on our assignment.

“No problem, Mack,” she said, giving me the predatory smile that seemed commonplace for her. Every time she looked at me that way, I fought showing my cringe. She was not my type at all, especially in comparison to the beauty of Megan.

Megan… that was a whole other story in itself. I wasn’t sure what I was going to do with her. Or me for that matter. Things had become so murky and gray with us. All my attempts at keeping distance were quickly obliterated whenever I was with her. The smart thing to do would be to walk away from her, but I was a selfish fuck who couldn’t bring myself to do it.

Ella haunted the piss out of me the night I fucked Megan in the same room as her picture. And it had been fucking with my head ever since. All my coping mechanisms just weren’t cutting it. I was doing the best I could to balance my feelings and not hurt Megan, but every now and then I sensed it wasn’t working. It was a harsh reminder why I never brought women back to my place.

When I turned away from Regina, I found Jacob staring at something off in the distance. I followed his line of sight and stiffened. Looking like a damn wet dream with her black hair pulled back into a tight bun low on her head and her glasses perched on the bridge of her nose was Megan. My body immediately took notice of how contradictory her appearance was to the wildcat I knew her to be. Her serious and intellectual look was the stuff of fantasies. Especially when you knew what was underneath those clothes. She was so damn alluring that I was going to embarrass myself if I wasn’t careful.

“Isn’t that Megan?” Jacob asked, nudging me with his elbow.

“Yeah. I believe it is.” My eyes tracked her movement. She had called me this morning to let me know she was taking on an extra shift for one reason or another.
