"Really?"
"Yeah."
"Why are you meeting on a Saturday?"
"Has to be right away. The usual ego BS." He runs his fingertips over my chin. "But it's handled. Aiden isn't gonna bother you."
I nod to my cell—it's still displaying one of the pictures of him. "The explanation."
"Had an offer from an old friend I had to take up. Hazel's our photographer on tour. She was in Chicago."
"She offered to take nude photos of you?"
He nods, but there's guilt in his expression. He's hiding something.
"We promised honesty," I say.
"Yeah." He runs his hand through his hair. "Sit down."
"What happened?"
"Sit." His eyes cloud with frustration.
This is serious. I sit.
He kneels in front of me and takes my hand. His eyes find mine. "Somebody leaked a topless picture of you."
"Oh." No… it's not as devastating as it used to be, getting caught naked on the internet. But it could tear my career chances in half. Lawyers are still held to certain standards of behavior.
Who would do that to me?
My stomach is in knots. I sent Nathan pictures a few times. And there might be some left in one of the accounts Madison has access to. I know my trust meant nothing to them, but this is a new low.
This is my future. Someone is trying to destroy it. Or they're willing to trade it for a quick buck.
"Hey. It's gonna be okay." He runs his hand through my hair. "I know it's scary, but Tom's got his eye out. Anything else comes up, we'll convince the site to change their story."
"But… this could destroy my career before it starts."
"I know." He pulls me into a tight hug. "I won't let it."
"What if you can't stop it?"
"I'll die trying."
"But what if you don't catch it in time?"
He meets my gaze. "There a lot of pics of you floating around?"
"No. Three or four maybe."
"Same person has them?"
"Yeah."
"Then they probably sold them all in one go. If something does get through, I'll do everything it takes to shut the site down."
"But… who would do this to me?"
