On the other side of the city, Amelia and Mason had already made it home.
The moment the door swung shut, Amelia turned on him directly. “Alright. Why did you bring Ethan tonight?”
Mason put on the most convincing innocent expression in his repertoire and spread his hands. “You’ve got me completely wrong. I didn’t invite him. Ethan found out through Tim that Hannah was coming back and asked to be included on his own.
“He and I are supposed to be rivals, remember? There’s only so much coordination that’s believable between two men in our situation.”
Amelia didn’t believe a syllable of it.
She straightened up and leaned toward him until her face was inches from his, studying his eyes with the focused intensity of someone looking for a tell. “Is that so?”
The gap between them was close enough that she could feel each breath he exhaled.
Mason’s expression shifted, and before she could step back, he wrapped an arm around her waist, pulled her in, and pressed his lips to hers in a brief, soft kiss.
When he pulled back, his voice came out low and warm with quiet laughter. “Completely and entirely, Ms. Harlow.”
Amelia’s face went red. She shoved at his chest with both hands, equal parts exasperated and amused. Im being serious right now! This is a serious conversation and you just took advantage of a serious moment!”
Mason looked at the color in her cheeks and broke into a genuine laugh, gathering her into his arms. “Alright. Go shower and get to bed. We have to visit Demi’s old house tomorrow, remember?”
He bent his head toward her ear, and the warmth of his breath against her skin carried words that were unmistakably a threat of the most pleasant variety. “If you keep pushing this conversation, I can’t promise you’ll be in any condition to get up tomorrow morning.”
That instantly destroyed the rest of Amelia’s determination to keep arguing.
She pulled herself out of his arms with her face burning, tossed “don’t even think about it” over her “D shoulder, and disappeared into the bathroom without looking back.
The sound of running water from behind the closed door only deepened the smile on Mason’s face.
He turned and headed for the study to finish some work that had been waiting
After all, Hannah had just called him broke.
That was genuinely hurtful

A full night’s rest later. Amelia dressed in sotnething practical and comfortable and got ready to meet Lenny with Mason.
But just as they were heading out, Mason’s phone rang.
He answered it, and the easy lightness in his expression solidified into something serious. He said a few quiet words, “understood,” and “I’ll be right there,” and ended the call.
“What happened?” Amelia asked.
Mason’s brow was tight. He reached up and touched her hair gently, and the apology in his tone was real “The hospital called about my brother. Something’s come up, I have to go.” He paused. “Today’s visit…”
“Then go,” Amelia said immediately. “Your brother comes first. This is Eldoria, it’s the middle of the day. and Hannah isn’t the only person I’ll be with. I’ll stay alert. I’ll be fine.”
“No.” Mason said it without any deliberation.
After last night’s performance, there was no version of today where he sent Amelia into that situation alone.
He thought for a moment and made a decision. “I’m sending two security personnel with you. They stay in your line of sight the entire time. If anything feels wrong, you call me immediately.”
Amelia recognized the look on his face for what it was. She knew she wouldn’t win this one, and honestly she didn’t want to. She nodded. “Fine.”
The driver took Amelia and the two quiet, capable bodyguards to the agreed location.
