Chapter 15

Tanner

She didn’t seem grateful that I’d killed her would-be rapist. Maybe she was still pissed, or maybe she couldn’t quite grasp the magnitude of the gesture I’d made for her. Okay, all right, maybe I hadn’t done it entirely for her. He’d touched her and she was mine. Nobody played with my toys but me. No one touched my things without my permission. He’d taken liberties, and while when I’d been working for The Organization my actions might have resulted in discipline, this was my world now, my playground, and I made the rules.

I looked across my desk at Flynn and silently willed the other man to leave. He was in the middle of his pitch. I didn’t care. I’d heard it over the phone a dozen times, I had no desire to hear it again, but out of professional courtesy I acted as if I cared. I really didn’t want to be on Flynn’s bad side – I might need him one day. All the others had left, leaving me Flynn and a couple of his men. Even Victoria was gone, with her new owner. And all I really wanted was to get to Emily and ensure she was aware of my grand gesture. She’d thank me when she understood.

“So what do you say, son? Join us.”

I sat back in my desk chair and steepled my fingers before mw. “I’m sorry Flynn. I’m done with this life, for now at least. I have everything I want and need right now, there just isn’t anything you can offer me.”

Flynn frowned but slowly nodded. “That’s unfortunate. I saw your work with Victoria and was very impressed.” He shrugged. “The other one definitely needs more work.”

Something within me coiled in anger. She didn’t need work. She was just the way I wanted her. All right, maybe not exactly, but she was coming. I didn’t want a fucking drone. “She’s fine,” I growled.

A grin spread across Flynn’s slips and he nodded. “I think I’m beginning to understand. You realize I would be fine with you keeping your pet while you worked for us. There’s no rule you have to get rid of her. For that matter, there’s no rule you even need to do the training yourself, just oversee. That’s all. You make the rules, Tanner.”

“I just don’t think it’s going to happen. Again, I’m sorry.” I stood and extended my hand to Flynn. “But if I change my mind…”

With reluctance, Flynn stood and took my outstretched hand. “Very well, then.”

Once Flynn and his guards were gone, I groaned a sigh of relief. Finally we were alone. The house was empty with the exception of me and Emily, just the way I wanted it. I’d locked her in her room for safekeeping, but now I could bring her back up and we could make some supper. Maybe we’d watch a movie. We could play happy, boring couple for a night. I couldn’t remember the last time I’d actually done something like that – pretended to be in a ‘normal’ relationship It might be fun.
