Los Angeles

Webb watched his brother’s approach. Raising his hand, he managed to get his attention. He knew by the expression on Basil’s face that he was less than happy. Unfortunately, he refused to let go of the fact that he hadn’t signed Justin Glover to Slow Wyne. Losing the singer to Serenity Records had made him virtually impossible to be around.

When Basil joined him in the booth in a secluded corner of the restaurant, Webb signaled for the waitress to bring his drink order. He clapped a hand on Basil’s shoulder. “Either you lighten up or I’m going to forget you’re my big brother.”

A wry smile twisted Basil’s full lips. “That will never happen.”

Webb gave him a level stare. “Yes, it can if you don’t let me take care of your problem.”

Reaching up, Basil loosened his tie, and unbuttoned the top button on his shirt. He’d wanted to go back to his house and relax, but Webb had insisted he meet him for drinks. “You know we could’ve done this back at my place. Have you forgotten I have a fully stocked bar?”

“No, I haven’t. There’s a reason why I wanted to meet here.” He leaned closer. “I know you’re expecting to see your pretty little secretary later on tonight.”

The intense gray eyes darkened until they appeared black in the dimly lit restaurant. “What does this have to do with Camille?”

“Do you know why I told you to invite her to spend the night at the Beverly Hills hotel with you instead of you going to her place?”

“No. Why?”

“Because the bitch has been taping everything you do and say.”

Slumping against the leather banquette as if he’d been shot, Basil closed his eyes. “When?”

“When I got the footage back from Omar Thornton’s place, and it was clean I knew the only other person you might trade secrets with is your so-called executive assistant.”

“So you bugged her place without telling me.” Basil’s tone was accusatory.

“I knew if I’d asked or told you it wouldn’t have gone down, brother.”

“At least you could’ve warned me beforehand.”

“There wasn’t time. Our window of opportunity was so small that my men couldn’t take the risk the maintenance staff would miss their uniforms. They had to get in and out in under half an hour. But, instead of planting bugs, we found a few. All they had to do was splice the feed and when I viewed the footage I discovered your girl has been running off at the mouth.”

“Do you know who put her up to it?”

Webb touched his scarred cheek. “No. It doesn’t matter because she’s done.”

Basil sat up straight. “What do you mean?”

“She’s going to be out of town for a while. I know you liked her, brother, but she’d become a liability.”

Basil noticed his brother said liked not like. He held up a hand. “Don’t tell me anymore.”

He did like Camille—a lot more than he had a woman in a very long time. She was beautiful, sexy and went out of her way to please him.
