"I don’t understand," Tate started slowly, trying to keep her cool "Singapore is like right next door You could be there and back in a day Why not just go to him?"

"Because I don’t want to I like it here"

"So because you like it here, now Sanders and I have to be here with you Indefinitely," Tate clarified Ja the obvious here"

"Then how coive a shit what I said in Boston Plans change, Tate We’re here now, and we’re not going anywhere Deal with it"

Tate hated it when he talked to her like that; it was one thing to get nasty in bed It was quite another during the light of day He wouldn’t appreciate it if she talked to hi since learned that snapping back didn’t work A person couldn’t fight fire with fire, not with Jameson Caler, then sat back in her chair Didn’t say another word till they got to the hotel

She continued not saying anything as they checked in, and didn’t ot to the roo roo for her to say so, to comment on how nice the place was, but she didn’t utter a word After their luggage was delivered, she followed the concierge out As she got on the elevator, Ja Just glared at her as the doors slid shut
