Chapter Fourteen

Zev

As if my life already wasn’t a fucked up mess, Simon left to go see our mother, Denise, so I have to watch over all his shit, too. Then, Adrian told me five minutes ago that he wants to meet with Noah tonight. I’ve been putting it off, worried that it will send us straight to prison.

I know Sanders is going to be pissed that he’s being called out on cheating. I can only hope he doesn’t want to give up the good thing he has going at our hotel.

I’m nervous, too, as I wait for Tara to show. Any moment, her tight body and irresistible smile are going to walk through that door and knock the wind out of me.

Speak of the devil, or more like angel. She’s stunning as she peeks around the corner to my office.

“Hi,” she says while flashing me a grin.

“Hi, come in.” I can’t help but smile back as I take in the sight of her. She’s in a pink, snug skirt that hits right above the knee. Her white blouse tucked into it is silky and thin, and I think I spot some lace beneath it. She’s dressed for the office, with her hair put up neatly.

She must notice I’m staring since she glances down at her attire. “I’m overdressed, aren’t I?”

“Yes, but you look great. Hardly anyone comes back here, so I don’t expect you to dress up.”

She grins again. “It gave me a reason to go shopping today. I like to shop.” Her hand comes out as she gets an animated look on her face. “Actually, it’s not so much the shopping. It’s about what I can do to make myself look nice. I’m happier when I take care of myself and look good.”

“You must be happy most of the time then.”

Her skin blotches red, but she doesn’t break our gaze.

“Thank you. I am a happy person for the most part. People tend to mistake it for dumb. Why is that?”

I exhale a breath a little too loudly.

“I’ve found that sometimes bubbly girls equal brain deficiency. They say really stupid shit.”

“Maybe they’re only nervous. I mean, being around a handsome guy like yourself makes me nervous, so no telling what could come out of my mouth.” She’s still smiling, and I know what I’d like to slide right into her mouth.

“Well, what do I know about women?” A memory from my past invades my mind. I was throwing a football with my dad the summer before he died. I was sixteen.
