“Yeah, I have.” Apparently, the time hadn’t changed his gruffness.
He was a man of few words as an adult.
Even when they were younger, he hadn’t spoken much. He’d listened to Anya ramble all day long and barely said two words.
They made it to the front entrance. Dallas put his hand on the door and blocked her from opening it.
“You’re not going to tell me why you are here, are you?” he asked.
“Everything is fine. Officer Cain took care of something for me. No need to worry.” She prayed she sounded convincing.
Dallas released a grunt.
He didn’t believe her.
“Take my number. If you need anything, you call me,” Dallas ordered in usual Dallas fashion.
She pulled her phone from her purse and inputted his contact information. “Got it.”
“Take down Dalton’s, too.”
“That I have already.” She cleared her throat and pushed her hair behind her ear. She slid her phone back inside the compartment in her purse.
“Really? You’ve run into my brother?”
Anya glanced back at the desk, and Officer Loot stood there, not hiding the fact she was listening to their conversation.
Just great.
Dallas patiently waited for her to continue. His arm still blocked her from escaping through the door, leaving her no choice but to answer him.
She stepped closer, not wanting the crabby woman to hear her. “Let’s just say I was with him this morning,” she whispered.
Confusion crossed Dallas’s face before understanding dawned on him. “Oh.” He blinked a few times. A small smile crossed his lips briefly. “Well, I’ll be. You finally caught him.”
“Hey!” Anya swatted his arm with her hand and was met with hard muscle. She pressed her stinging hand to her chest. “I did not chase him.”
“Whatever.” Dallas snorted. He pushed open the door and followed her outside. “You need me. Call me. Anytime.”
“Yes, Dallas.” She rolled her eyes, but deep down inside, she was comforted. Even though they hadn’t seen each other in forever, he was still acting as a protective big brother.
Some things didn’t change.
Dalton scowled at the sight in front of him. A massive warehouse fire was currently taking up his off day. Because of the size of the burning building, several fire stations were involved.
What he wouldn’t give to be back in his bed with Anya. He’d taken great pride in giving her more orgasms in one night than she’d ever had before.
The memories of her spread out on his bed with her legs wide open waiting for him would be forever etched in his mind.
“Lieutenant!” a voice shouted, catching his attention.
Dalton snapped back to the present and glanced over at Anton, making his way to him. He was covered in soot, dirt, and ash.
“What is it?” Dalton asked. He had on his flame-resistant suit, prepared to jump in to help his men. Dallas hoisted his air pack on his back and secured his mask on one side to allow him to still converse. Part of his job was supervision, but when needed, he worked alongside his men.
“The north side is lost. We are going to just let it burn down to the ground,” Anton reported.
They walked toward the building. Dark smoke filled the air, marring the beautiful blue sky.
