CHAPTER THIRTY-NINE
VICTÓRIA MENDOZA
“I need some answers and I think you’re the only one who is going to give it to me straight.” I walked into Moses’ office without stopping to knock.
He seemed surprised to see me. Before I could say anything else, he grabbed me by the arm and dragged me out into the outer office.
“Shush.” He pointed to the walls and pointed to his ears.
“What the fuck?”
He put his fingers to his lips and shook his head angrily. I wanted to yank my arm from him but I decided to play nice. I didn’t know Moses well, so he certainly didn’t have permission to put his hands on me. Once we were in the hallway he spoke to me.
“I think my office is bugged. Until I find out who is listening, I don’t want to talk in there.”
I was skeptical. He came off like he’d just stepped out of the cuckoo house.
“I know what you’re thinking. Better safe than sorry, though.” He had a point.
If there was any validity to his concerns, I didn’t want my business put out on Front Street. However, I needed to speak with him. He looked worried as he peered back at his closed office door. He drew some keys out of his pocket and locked the door.
“Come on.” Moses turned and walked toward the elevator with me following close behind.
I was still trying to decide if I liked my sister’s husband. He was fine and funny. Did I mention fine? But I wasn’t sure I trusted him.
“Does this type of shit happen to you often?” I asked when we were in the elevator. No wonder my sister was fascinated with him. Life with him would certainly be interesting.
“Actually, this is a first time, but I’m pretty sure I know who planted the device.”
We walked the rest of the way in silence to a small coffee house on Peachtree Street. He walked in front of me, and I got a chance to admire his broad shoulders and his tight ass. I could also see the imprint of his hamstrings as they pushed against the fabric of his pants. I had to admit, he was a well put together package. He held open the door of the coffee shop, and I chose a table near the window so I could look out to the street as we talked.
“Coffee?” he said.
“Please, cream and sugar.”
He walked toward the counter and pulled out his wallet. I looked away as I felt a familiar twinge in my panties. The last thing I needed was to become attracted to my sister’s husband. I was, however, excited to know I was capable of being turned on by a man. Maybe once this mess settled, I could speak to Moses about hooking me up with one of his friends.
He came back to the table and said, “I didn’t know how sweet you liked it.”
He drank his coffee black. I grabbed some cream and three sugars and fixed my cup. He sat back in his chair and watched me until I started to feel uncomfortable.
