“I can’t believe the hag just lied straight to my face!” I tell Crow, pacing up and down. We came back to the clubhouse to wait for Nadia and Dee, and I’ve been fuming ever since we left the dance studio.

“What if she spoke to him on the phone but never met him? Or maybe he gave a fake name to her?” Crow suggests, trying to be the voice of reason.

“Okay, so there may be an explanation,” I admit, thinking those two ideas over. “But the way she looked at me and avoided any eye contact, come on! That’s the look of someone who knew damn well who I was, and felt guilty about something.”

I’m sure of it. My gut tells me this woman knows something, and I’m not going to let this go until I know for sure.

“Okay, babe,” Crow says, taking my hand and pulling me to sit on his lap. “Whatever it is, we’ll find out, okay?”

Nodding, I rest my head against his shoulder. “It’s just frustrating.”

“I know,” he says as he rubs my back. “And I understand how much this means to you, okay? We will get to the bottom of it, no matter how many random classes we have to go to. Belly dancing? Cooking? Whatever, we will do it.”

Laughing, I lift my head. “I love you, you know that?”

Yeah, I said it first.

I hadn’t planned on it, but it kind of just came out, and I don’t regret it, because I truly do mean it.

I’m in love with Crow.

How couldn’t I be?

His smile couldn’t be any wider. “I love you too, Bronte. You have no idea.”

He kisses me, cupping my cheeks with his big hands, bringing me as close to him as I could physically be.

With my clothes on, anyway.

“Let’s go to your room,” I say into his ear just as Nadia and Dee walk in, seeing us all over each other and chuckling.

“So while we’ve been doing all the work, this is what you two love birds have been doing?” Dee asks, clucking his tongue in disapproval. “You both owe me.”

“We do,” I admit, climbing off Crow’s lap and letting him hide his erection. Pretending I don’t see it standing to attention, all thick, big and hard. “What happened?”

“We followed her back to her house,” Nadia explains, sitting down on the chair next to Crow. “She didn’t go anywhere else, so there’s nothing fun to report there, but I put a bug in her car. So we’re going to be able to track her movements and listen to any conversations that take place. I’m going to go back to her house tomorrow when she’s teaching her dance class and put a bug in her house, too. I think that’s where we’ll be able to hear all the juicy shit.”

I clap my hands in excitement. “Holy shit, I didn’t even think of that.”

Dee turns to Crow. “She has no idea who we are, does she?”

Crow simply smirks, which means he’s probably thinking that I underestimate them, too.
