She nods, causing the loose strands of her hair to glide along her jawline. My fingers twitch with the need to touch the silky strands. To wrap them around my fist.
“Mr. Bennett,” she says, her voice coated with hesitation, “I need your hel—no.” She shakes her head with an exhale. “I want to know: why did you intervene on my behalf at the Sugar Cube and then again at T&A?”
“That’s simple. I saw you needed help, and I prov...
