Chapter Sixteen

Rich dumped his suitcase and Mina’s by the door of the hotel suite, not even bothering to carry them back to the bedroom.

God.

What would he give to sleep in his own goddamn bed just one night? They’d bounced from Boston to Italy to Charleston and back to Boston in less than a week. He was no stranger to travel—his work required him to spend time on the road, well, in the air. But if his personal assistant had ever set him up with a schedule like this, he would have fired him on the spot.

Mina followed him in, walking over to the couch to sit down, then drumming her fingers on her knee in a way that betrayed her anxiety. She was pissed about losing the tablet and concerned about what this would do to her case. She had given them a succinct summary of the Morrison indictment, and Langston’s eyes widened when he realized just how stiff the penalty was for even lying by omission. Rich suspected Langston was suddenly viewing his behavior at the binding ceremony in a different light.

They’d all catnapped on the flight to Boston. Sheer exhaustion had finally won, and the three of them had crashed hard before the plane had even taken off. While that two-hour nap had left him groggy, it appeared to have worked wonders on Langston and Mina, both of whom were fairly buzzing with nervous energy.

A car had been waiting for them at Logan International, driving them straight to the Boston Public Library. Deep under the library, the Grand Master had been waiting for Mina. He and Langston had been included in the meeting, meaning they’d been offered a place to sit in a small lounge-turned-conference room that Rich hadn’t known existed, then summarily excluded from the conversation as Mina, the Grand Master, and another lawyer, Harper, discussed the legal ramifications of the stolen tablet, and what—if anything—in Mina’s files about the Morrison indictment could potentially damage their case.

Once the meeting was over, Mina and Harper walked together toward the elevator and continued discussing the case. Langston excused himself, and Rich had watched as the other man asked if he could speak to Juliette in private. This time, she granted his request.

Rich had nearly called out, begged Langston to wait. He hadn’t had time to talk him through what he needed to say. Well, that wasn’t exactly true. He could have made time, but instead opted for sex and fun.

Rich had waited in the entrance hall, his anxiety growing, as he wondered if this was it. If Langston was asking to dissolve their trinity.

And how the Grand Master would take it.

If Langston didn’t play it the right way…

He’d glanced down the hall. Mina had been pointing to something in a file folder, she and Harper oblivious to the fact he and Langston hadn’t followed them.

When the door opened, Rich had heard the Grand Master say, “It will all be okay.”

Rich hated being in the dark. Hated that his future was so up in the air.
