I had to work tonight but Tawny called and asked me to watch Larissa for a couple of hours this afternoon. Marcus hadn’t argued with me like Cage would have. He seemed to understand family craziness and gave me a ride over there. He’d made me promise to call him as soon as I was ready to leave. He was going job hunting today and he had a paper to write for one of his online courses. Leaving him was still hard. I was already addicted to him. Not exactly healthy behavior.
As usual Tawny was running late. She’d promised I’d have time to go home and change before work but it looked like I’d be going to work as is. Glancing at my phone for the tenth time in like five minutes I let out a frustrated growl. Why couldn’t she just call or text when she was running late?
The sound of gravel crunching under tires outside ended my frustration and I went to close Larissa’s door so Tawny wouldn’t wake her up from her nap. I’d go outside to call Marcus after I’d dealt with Tawny. I didn’t want her listening in on our conversation.
Walking by the window I stopped. Instead of Tawny’s piece of junk Ford Taurus there was a very expensive black car in the driveway. That couldn’t be good. Turning around I went to the door expecting a knock when it opened and in walked my sister followed by an older guy. Much older.
“You can go now,” Tawny said sauntering into the house and glancing at me as if I were the hired help.
“Um, okay,” I stared back at the strange man. Was this her new sugar daddy? Whoever it was I was getting an introduction before I left. If Tawny was going to bring strange men around my niece I wanted to know who they were.
“I’m late and you’ve got work. Why’re you just standing there?”
The man frowned slightly at Tawny and took a step toward me holding out his hand, “Hello, I’m Jefferson.” That’s all I get? One name? What was he freaking Usher? I don’t think so.
“Willow, Tawny’s sister,” I replied shaking his hand as firmly as I could. A smile tugged at his lips and he was instantly familiar. How odd. I’d never met this man before. I studied his face carefully. What was it about him?
“Okay now you two have met. You can leave,” the irritation in Tawny’s voice was unmistakable. She didn’t want me here. Well now I was curious. So too bad.
“Are you dating my sister?” I asked looking back up at Jefferson the one named old guy.
“Yes, I am.”
“Aren’t you old enough to be her father?”
“WILLOW” Tawny screeched storming back into the room and grabbing my arm so tightly her nails bit into my flesh.
“What? I have a right to know what and who he is exactly. You’re bringing him around MY niece.”
“Get out,” she seethed.
I jerked my arm out of her hold and glared at her.
“No. Not until I get answers.
