could just make out the swell of her ass, driving him crazy wondering if she was wearing anything underneath. It seemed near impossible considering how low the back was and how open things were.
It made his hands twitch to do all sorts of things to the exposed skin. His cock twitched in his pants and continued to strain against his zipper. If he couldn’t calm down soon, he was going to be in some serious pain. Shifting on the stool, he eased the pressure off that area as much as he could.
He jumped when she leaned forward on the counter in front of him.
“Is there anything else I can get you?” She smiled sweetly.
Kace shook his head and tried not to look down at the open cleavage in front of him.
“I’m good,” he said and took another drink.
Jessica leaned across and squeezed his arm.
“I’m glad you came in,” she said. His dick swelled a bit at her gentle touch.
He choked a little. “Oh?”
Jessica nodded. “It’s always so quiet in here before anyone comes, and there’s just so much room.” She nibbled her bottom lip. “Sometimes it’s just really creepy.”
Kace puffed up a little. “Glad I could help alleviate those fears.”
She smiled widely and slid her hand from his arm. He had to bite back a groan as her hand met the skin on his arm.
They turned when there was a knock on the door. Kace cursed his very evident arousal.
“You go in front,” he said. “If it’s someone up to no good, it’s best they not know I’m here, so I can get the drop on them.”
He sighed when she nodded and walked toward the door.
He eased off the stool and took a second to adjust himself. There was no real hiding it, but it did feel good to shift things around a bit.
He watched through some plants as she smiled and opened the door. A larger man came in, scanning the room for trouble.
“Damn it, Ryder,” Kace said from his position. “Maybe you should text before you come.”
Ryder chuckled when he spied Kace.
“Hiding behind the plant while the lady opens the door?” Ryder hitched an eyebrow at him and snorted when Kace came into full view.
Knowing Ryder, he wouldn’t give him shit now for the massive hard on Kace was sporting, but first chance around the rest of the guys, he was fucked.
Kace flipped him off, which only seemed to amuse Ryder more.
“Let’s go take a seat before you break something,” he mumbled.
Kace mumbled a few choice words back, which only made Ryder laugh harder.
“Want a drink, Ryder?” Jessica breezed past them. Kace turned his head to look at the ugly tables sprinkled across the room.
“Coffee if you have it,” he said.
The two men took a seat and watched her easily move around the bar.
“Here you go,” she said and sat the drink in front of him. “Here’s cream and sugar if you need it. If you don’t have anything else, I’ll just go in the office and get started on some paperwork.”
They both shook their heads and watched her retreat into the back area.
“So…” Ryder snorted. “That’s some dress she’s wearing.”
Kace fisted his hands on his lap. It shouldn’t piss him off that Ryder had noticed, but he was one step away from beating the shit out of his brother. Of course, Reed would have been worse.
He turned and shot him a hard look. “How’s Irene doing?”
The two men glared at each other for a moment before Ryder threw his hands up.
“Fair enough,” he said. “Got anything new?”
Kace shook his head. “You?”
“Not yet,” Ryder said and took a sip. “I’ve got a few leads on Russian movement but not enough to really confirm anything.”
Kace nodded. “And what about the funds?”
“Meg is running a few things and talking to some experts in the UK that have some knowledge on this sort of thing,” Ryder said quietly.
“UK?” Kace glanced toward the back door. “How does she know these people?”
Ryder shrugged. “Guess from school. There were a lot of other people in her computer science program.” He
