Chapter Fourteen

Tyler slipped into the dim, closet-sized room where Lacey stood ramrod-straight behind the one-way window overlooking the interrogation room. Without a care for the other officers, the DA—or even the chief, who flanked her in a protective semi-circle—he cut through the crowd of guys. Though Mason had kissed her on the lips in front of their co-workers before they’d had one final private conference in the hall, he wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her shoulders snug against his chest.

Whatever happened, they would watch it together. Since he had no intentions of skirting his relationship with Lacey—or Mason—ever again, he shrugged off the cleared throats, elbow nudges and stares of the few gawkers. Most of the men in the room he trusted with his life, both public and personal. The rest could go to hell.

His hands fanned out over the fuzzy, cornflower blue sweater Lacey had thrown on over the sexy jeans molding to the rise of her hips. From this angle, he caught a glimpse of the plump swell of her breasts framed in the V-neck.

Son of a bitch! He forced himself to concentrate on the action unfolding under the horrid green glow of the fluorescents next door. Mason stalked across the cracked linoleum to the mustard colored bucket chair that barely held all of Jerome’s massive build. The giant dwarfing the tiny plastic seat appeared at ease despite having been detained for close to two hours already. The detective on the case hadn’t been able to make any progress. He’d gladly turned the suspect over to Ty and Mason for a change of pace.

“If you planted that shit on Lacey’s coffee, I’m going to fuck you up.” Mason got right in Jerome’s face as he snarled the threat.

Behind them the chief cursed. “Is he going to be able to keep his act together?”

“Depends on if he believes the dude or not.” Tyler shrugged. If Jerome had caused the wreck, Mason was likely to kick his ass but someone would probably pull him off before he did permanent damage or got himself fired.

Lacey shuddered in his hold. “Jerome wouldn’t hurt me, Tyler. I keep telling you guys that.”

“We’ll see, little one.” He refused to entrust her safety to blind faith. “I hope you’re right.” If not, maybe Jerome would get his ass kicked twice. Once for causing the crash and once for betraying her friendship.

Jerome laughed at Mason’s bluster. “You expect to come in here and scare me into confessing with that bullshit? What is this, some bad TV show from the 80’s?”

“That man must have a death wish,” the rookie, Razor, mumbled as he shook his head.

Mason slapped his palms on the stained Formica table. “You only have something to worry about if you’re the bastard who drugged Lacey. Only if you’re the fucker who caused her to crash into that tree.” Jerome grimaced, his chocolate eyes matching Mason’s heat for a moment. “I don’t know jack about any drugs but I’d never do something to put that girl in jeopardy.
