“This is a nice surprise,” she said, smiling at both of us. “I only have a few minutes until my next meeting though.”

“Plenty of time,” North said. His gaze swept over her hungrily. She went over and sat down on his lap and he pulled her in to kiss her. Their kiss got so hot and heavy I got lost in it for a minute and had to adjust myself as my cock hardened. She pulled back breathlessly, her eyes searching his before she looked over at me.

“So what brings you guys here in the middle of the day?” She asked.

“West was poking around and he doesn’t like how lax your security is on your camera feeds,” North said, jumping straight to the point.

She blinked and her eyebrows shot up as she looked at North again.

“Why was Westpoking around?” She asked, lingering on the words ‘poking around’ as though they offended her. She looked at me and then back at North again and sighed. “This is related to our conversation earlier isn’t it?”

“We just want to make sure you’re safe everywhere, gorgeous,” I said, because regardless of why or what was happening, keeping her safe through it all was paramount and something we both agreed on.

“Then why don’t you tell me what you’re keeping me safe from,” she said, her eyes narrowing as she looked back at North, already knowing he was the reason for all of this. “Because I can guarantee, those death threats you found are not coming from anyone capable of hacking into my camera feeds.”

North just fixed her with a look and she sighed and gestured to her computer. He scooted the chair up with her still on his lap so she could reach her keyboard.

“Call West,” she said, her voice resigned.

“Good girl,” North murmured and I watched his eyes darken in approval. Kaelin visibly shivered at his tone. I loved watching her visceral reaction to us, it would never not turn me on. North pulled his phone out of his pocket and dialed West, putting it on speaker in front of them.

“Yeah boss,” he answered.

“I’m with Kaelin. You’re on speaker.”

“Hey Killer, what can I do for you?”

“I heard you were ‘poking around’ my video surveillance,” she said dryly. “Since you seem to have done a diagnostic on the weaknesses already, I thought I could save myself some trouble and just loop you in—”

They started talking in heavy tech terms and North watched Kaelin’s fingers travel quickly across the keyboard as she coded.

“And save me a backdoor or T will kill me in my sleep,” West said.

Kaelin laughed. “I’m half tempted to kick you out and make you hack in all over again.”

West groaned. “Please don’t.”

“So why the increased security?”

West fell silent. “We’re a private military company who specializes in security and protection—unfortunately, you’re dating the boss and that means you get the brunt of his obsessive attention to detail. You know he means well. He cares about y—”

“Okay, sounds like we’re done here,” North interrupted.

“Bye West!” Kaelin got out before he hit the end call button. Kaelin looked over at North and smirked, kissing him on the cheek. She still looked a little annoyed, but then her eyes shuttered and she squirmed in his lap. I couldn’t see his hands but I knew what he was doing just by watching her face flush.

“See, that wasn’t so bad,” North murmured.

“You can’t fix everything with sex,” she tried to argue, but it wasn’t very convincing.

I chuckled. “I beg to differ.”

“Me too,” North said, running his nose over the curve of her ear. He growled against her neck.

“I should ban you from ever wearing panties,” North muttered, and I assumed his fingers had found their way under her skirt.

“Theron, I have a meeting in—” She looked at the computer clock. “Two minutes.”

“In fact, I’m putting that policy into effect immediately,” North said, ignoring her comment. “Take them off.”
