nodded. She was feeling more comfortable with even Thane, who seemed to have accepted her as a member of the ‘team’.
When they exited the room, the guys let her elbows go and took her hands. She didn ’t pull away—she was startled though. This was the first time they had ever touched her in anything other than a friendly manner, this felt like something more.
Harper remained silent and let them take the lead. She wanted to see where this was going to go, with everything that is going on right now, she needed to make sure they knew she wasn't into a quick fuck right now. Well more like ever, she never really saw the point to them. She had been in only two relationships that led to sex, none of them fulfilling. She could get herself off faster than she could get the fumbling idiots who like to stick it in then come and fall asleep.
When they reached her door both of the men held her hand for a second before letting go and Drake turned her to face them.
“ Sleep well, sweetheart,” Joel said, leaned in, and kissed her. She was caught off guard and it took her a moment to respond but when she did, Harper put everything she had into the kiss. They had been driving her nuts for too long.
Joel was gentle but commanding. His lips were firm and extremely talented, as she had thought they would be. It only took a few brushes of their lips to feel the heat and Harper opened her mouth without thought. Giving her access to Joel without question. His tongue swept through her mouth in a demanding way, not letting her take back what she had given him. He explored, teased, and dominated her mouth. By the time he pulled back, she was breathless.
“Uh…okay,” Harper said and then was swept into Drake’s arms quickly.
He gave her no notice and wasn't the sweet kiss she had just received. No, Drake was explosive, just like she knew he would be. His kiss demanded a response from her the moment their lips met. She didn ’t want to even take a breath for fear that it would end. She felt his desperation, and it matched hers. Damn, when he released her, she instinctively leaned forward trying to keep their connection. Harper felt Drake's chuckle and opened her eyes.
“ Game on, little one,” Drake drawled, letting her go and then both men pushed her into the room gently before telling her to dream of them.
Bastards .
“ Are you fucking kidding me?” Diego roared. “That idiot did what?”
His second shifted on his feet, when they had learned that Lipit had indeed survived the initial poisoning, Diego had ordered him to take care of it. He hadn't been mad or irritated at all with him because the drug, if caught early enough, could be stopped. But they had known where he was and had many contacts who would have been able to end it swiftly. However, before they had been able to, their missing contact had decided he was going to take care of it himself without checking with him. This is why he hated to deal with Americans.
“He has been taken into custody,” his second said.
“ Where?” Diego snarled.
He told him with the FBI, and Frank was under lock and key, he was fortunately not his only mole. “Kill him.”
“ On it. What do you want me to do with the others we are seeking?” he asked his boss.
“ Assign someone else, I want this dealt with personally by you. Kill him and then come back. We are going to begin planning to get this over with and leave the country. The rest of our plans can be fulfilled somewhere else. I just need to get my brother and his bitch out of the way, plus this team is going to die by my hands and soon."
His second left the room, and the outrage began to flow through him. His mother entered the room and he turned to look at her.
“Fix this,” she said firmly and stared at him.
“ Dario will not live through this,” he commented.
She shrugged and walked out of the room again.
In the next office, Dario was
