Chapter 9

Spencer yawned and stretched as she finished up the paperwork on a client. After pizza she and Larkin decided to try and figure out who the woman was that Alan had supposedly been involved with. After she ditched Joffrey, that is.

Freak. He sent chills of distaste up her spine and she just couldn’t put her finger on what it was about him that she didn’t like. Except his television commercial hair and cool, smug attitude. Gross, he was just gross and even if he was her life mate—she didn’t give a rat’s fuzzy ass—he wasn’t signing on for the lifetime plan in Spencer’s world. Not ever.

And then there was Larkin. Tough, hot-headed, brash and a consummate lover. He made her ache with just thought of him and she’d known him less than a week. She’d boinked him in less than a week. Did that make her a trampy vamp?

She giggled. Larkin was everything she shouldn’t become involved with and maybe that was part of his appeal. He was also human.

Human, human, human. That alone should have been her first big neon sign. But no, why not take your first dip into the lake known as sexual without so much as testing it.

Hell, she’d done a half gainer off the back wall right into the deep end, but she couldn’t summon up any good reason why she shouldn’t. So he was human…and a cop…a cop who had suspicions about her family’s involvement in Alan’s death.

Spencer hoped to assuage those assumptions on Larkin’s part. But what would happen when he was done investigating Alan’s death? Spencer figured he’d go home, wherever that was.

Note to self—ask Larkin about warm, fuzzy shit.

So probably this was just a fling. Okay. She was a big girl. She could deal with that—she would deal with that. She tapped the pen in her hand against her desk and ignored the butterflies in her stomach.

“Hey, gorgeous. How’s smellin’?”

Spencer’s head snapped up at the sound of her brother’s voice and she flew around her desk, throwing her arms around his neck. “Ethan! You smart-ass! Leave my damn nose alone, will you? How are you?”

Ethan hugged her tightly and swung her around. “I’m good.”

Spencer looked into his dark, handsome eyes. When he’d gone away a month ago, he wouldn’t talk about what was troubling him. He just said he needed time to figure some things out and left. Her parents had given him their full support, because they were nothing if not supportive, loving parents, but Ethan’s departure left Spencer unsettled and it was obvious he still wasn’t ready to talk about what was going on. “Really? I mean, you can talk to me, Ethan. You know that, right?”

Ethan gave her another squeeze, avoiding her eyes. “I do know that, Spencer, and we will, I promise you. Lemme get settled in and then we’ll talk. So what’s new with you? Anything exciting in the embalming business?”

Lost virginity, death, mayhem, mind reading, possibly murder…nah, nuthin’ new. “Well, we did have a sort of exciting moment or two with a recent customer.
