Chapter Thirteen

Hurrying out of the hotel, I practically jogged to the van. I was running behind. I had a lot to do, and traveling three hours was only one of the items on my to-do list. Groaning, I kicked the van’s tire. Driving the beast another six hours was not appealing at all. Thinking, I debated on using my Council credit card on a rental. So what if I had to pay it back? Maybe I could appeal it and convince them that it was necessary for me to perform my job duties. The beast could suddenly die a horrible death, and that would be a good enough excuse. Smiling to myself, I began to think of ways to end the lemon’s life.

“Please tell me you aren’t driving that thing again.”

I spun around to see Drake standing several feet from me. He was wearing a pair of jeans that hung low on his hips and a dark gray T-shirt. It was so unusual, I had to blink several times and jog my brain to catch up. He was dressing casually, for once.

“Why are you here?” I asked, opening the van’s door. I could abandon it somewhere. Maybe offer the keys up to a teenager at the mall.

“I’ve come to talk to you.” He grabbed my arm to prevent me from climbing in.

Sighing, I pulled away from him, immediately missing his skin touching mine. “I have to travel to the bank.”

“I’ll drive you,” he quickly offered.

“It’s three hours away, Drake.” I rolled my eyes.

“I don’t mind. I cleared my day for you.” His smile appeared. “It will be just you and me, getting to know each other.”

It was tempting. Really tempting, but I had to focus on the murders. “I can’t. You’ll distract me, and I’m already behind on this case.”

“I distract you?” His eyes darkened as he came toward me, forcing me to put my back up against the van. I opened my mouth to protest, but his was already on mine, fingers kneading my sides before traveling around my back so he could pull me closer. I moaned, eager to keep the kiss going. He groaned, responding to my eagerness.

Someone cleared their throat near us and my eyes shot open, glancing in their direction. The mother was shielding her son’s eyes, glaring at me as they hurried away. Blushing, I touched my lips with my fingers. “Distract me like that. I can’t do this with you today.”

“I’ll be good,” Drake promised, raising his eyebrows.

I busted out laughing, slapping him on the chest. “Yeah, right. You’re a good liar.”

Drake gave me his best puppy dog expression. “Come on. I’ll drive you. This will be fun.” His accent came out a little thicker, the Irish causing my whole body to shiver with desire. It was a huge turn on. I didn’t realize how much until it became really noticeable. I wonder if he purposely avoided the accent, or if it just went away over the years.

Giving in, I finally nodded. “I don’t want to drive the van, anyway.
