“You have her credit card statement?” asked Lucas skeptically as he looked over the paper that Meredith handed him.

“Believe it or not, you weren’t our first choice in tracking down Lily. We did hire a real investigator, but I feel that time is of the essence. He wasn’t able to find her, but he was able to find you.”

“That’s because I wasn’t hiding because I didn’t do anything wrong,” he said between clenched teeth.

Harper reached over and set a hand on his shoulder. “I’m sorry, it’s early. We had trouble sleeping last night. We’re both very excited to start the search for your daughter.”

Lucas scoffed. She had trouble sleeping? She didn’t have a full-on erection for over half the night. If he was smarter, he would’ve gone to the bathroom and taken care of himself, but he kept on assuming it would go away.

Of course, when it came to Harper, his erection wouldn’t just go away. He was half convinced she would eventually let him crawl into that bed with her, but she held steady in her refusals. He wanted to respect her for that, but the sexual frustration made respect just a little bit too damn hard right now. Between sexual frustration and the normal run-of-the-mill frustration, he was SOL.

“So what do you expect me to do with this information that your other PI couldn’t?” he asked in as civil a tone as he could manage.

“To be bluntly honest, I expect you to call Lily the second you’re free from this house and hopefully the two of you can sort this out easily enough.”

“Trust me. If I had her number, I would’ve called her already.”

“Trust is earned.”

“And yet somehow I’m supposed to trust that you’re going to have the bullshit drug charges dropped any day now?”

“I don’t care if you trust me or not, Mr. Stone. I’ve laid out my terms and conditions, and you can take them or leave them. I don’t need you to sign your soul away in order to get your consent.”

A rumble somewhere between a groan and a growl escaped his throat as he sat back. He half expected Meredith to be recording everything that had gone on in Lily’s bedroom with video or at least audio. He’d been one hundred percent comfortable with the idea of them listening in on any frisky times he and Harper might’ve had—hell, it would serve them right—but from the sounds of it, Meredith was a hundred percent convinced that Lucas knew exactly where Lily was.

Harper took the credit card statement and looked it over. “This will give us a place to start. I’m ready to head to the city when you are.”

He glanced over to her and didn’t see any hint of sarcasm or humor. She was taking this joke of a “case” seriously. He still wanted to know why. Harper wasn’t anything to him. He’d only just met her.

“You know, forty-eight hours isn’t a lot of time,” said Harper as she looked over the statement.

“It’s already forty-eight hours from when I’d like to have her home,” said Meredith.
