WMIS 06 Tied With Me (34 page)
“Bullshit,” Cary responds, leaning forward in his chair. “Lo, the man wasn’t afraid to put his hands on you when you told him to leave . . .”
“What?” Ty exclaims, but Cary continues.
“So you need to tell me what he threatened to do to you if you don’t give him what he wants.”
I shake my head and close my eyes, remembering the feel of Jack’s nose pressed to my neck and the crazy
look in his eyes when he wasn’t getting what he wanted.
“Excuse us for a minute, Cary.”
Ty takes my hand in his and leads me toward the door.
“Uh, my client, Ty, remember?”
“We’ll be right back,” Ty assures him and leads me into his office and shuts the door behind us.
“What did the asshole threaten to do to you, Lauren?”
“You said no yesterday, Ty. This isn’t your case.”
He shrugs, as if what I just said is of no consequence.
“Answer me.”
I simply shake my head. “It doesn’t matter. Cary and I will figure it out. You don’t have to stay in there with us.”
I try to walk past him but he catches my hand in his, keeping me in place.
“Lauren . . .”
“Stop, Ty. You don’t want me—I get it.”
“Are you fucking kidding me?” he asks, his voice deceptively calm. “Do you know why I turned you down
yesterday, Lauren?”
I shake my head, my eyes wide and pinned to his.
“Because it would be a conflict of interest. I can’t be your lawyer because I’m your friend, and I want to be a whole lot more than that.”
If I thought I was stunned before, it’s nothing compared to this. My jaw drops as he closes the gap between
us. He doesn’t touch me, but his face is mere inches from mine. His eyes are on my lips as I bite them and watch him. I’m completely thrown by this turn of events.
“You have the most beautiful lips, Lo.”
“What?” I whisper.
He takes a deep breath as he lays his thumb gently on my lower lip and pulls it from my teeth. “I want to
taste these lips.”
It’s whispered so softly, I can barely hear the words. I can’t tear my gaze away from his mouth and I take a
deep breath, inhaling the musky scent of him.
I’ve forgotten Jack and his threats, the lawsuit.
Everything.
Ty clears his throat and backs away, watching me carefully. “Cary will remain your lawyer, but I want to
know what the hell is going on, Lo. I can help.”
I blink and continue to stare at him, completely dumbstruck.
He wants me?
“And another thing, Lauren. You’re not settling. Fuck Jack and his lawyer.”
