Chapter Nine

Kim grabbed the backpack off her desk, along with some work she wanted to take home. She’d arranged to get off at a decent hour so she could get ready for Rakesh, but the front office door opened, and Akaar Singh strolled in, looking around for her. His hands were filled with flowers, and a bottle of wine sat tucked under his right arm.

Shit! Thank God her desk was in the back so she could slip out the rear door to the alley and run to her studio. “Hello, Professor Singh.” She called this out loud enough for the whole office to hear. While they swamped the oh-so-famous, at least for this crowd, Akaar Singh, she made her escape through the back door.

She might have ten minutes to get out of her studio and boogie away to wherever Rakesh wanted to have dinner before Akaar got the information about where she was living from EnVirons staff. As she hustled past her car in the alley, she dug her keys out, opened the door, and dumped her bag, along with the work she’d planned to do that evening. She stopped when she saw a note on her counter. It was on creamy notepaper and just said:

I will be a bit late. Could I take you out for dessert after nine?

Rakesh

He left a phone number on the note. “Why didn’t he just call me?” She shoved aside a spurt of disappointment, mixed with concern that he’d somehow gotten into her locked apartment. Akaar would be on his way here soon. She needed to leave now. The note crackled in her hands as she tucked it into her pocket.

Go, go, go, dummy!

“I’m on it, IB.” She locked up, jumped in her car, and pulled out, heading for the East Bay and a restaurant she’d always wanted to visit. “Might as well, since Rakesh can only do dessert.” A shiver gripped her when she remembered “dessert” from the night before. Jeez. It would be stupid to talk to Rakesh again about that insane dream. That would scare him off for sure. And she didn’t want that.

If that scares him off, he isn’t worth it.

“Oh, please. Rakesh took me out to a really prime restaurant and treated me to not one but several orgasms.” She edged to the lane that would take her to Highway 80 and the bridge. “Then he stayed the night. He’s the best thing that has happened to me in such a long time. I am so not kicking him to the corner.”

She roared up the approach to the bridge. A gray Jaguar slid into the space behind her and blinked its lights. She looked into her mirrors and groaned.

Akaar waved from his car.

“What did he do, put a tracker on me?” She wouldn’t put it past him. The word on Akaar was that no affair was ever over until he said it was. She had been warned off by several of his past students, but had she listened? Hell, no.
