I reach behind my back and lock her door Then I pull down the blinds, concealing us from the outside world If Kennedy picks up on my actions, she doesn’t show it

I stroll toward her desk, doing er–Joker ilaring down at the file "My ot hiainst the corner of her desk "Are you going to retry him?"

"Absolutely The son of a bitch deserves to spend the rest of his life in a cold, dark hole, and I’ and ieful streak is dah She doesn’t sht now"

"YeahI don’t particularly feel like talking either But--"

Surprising her, I yank her chair out, spin it around, and braceher in

For a hot second I’m distracted by the way her chest heaves, the way her eyes round, and her lips part--just wide enough to slip ue in My cock would require her to open wider--and that thought’s pretty da too

"But--whether ant to talk or not, it looks like I need to lay soaze burns into hers and my voice is almost as hard as my dick "Rule number one--you don’t set one pretty toe out ofme up first Ever"

"Like what?"

"Like you wantto kiss you, Kennedy--I’m pissed off at you"

She squir between ether ever so slightly And a groan catches inpissed off at her

Jesus, the fun I could have with that

But I stay focused "Ground rule te talk Not about the case, but everything else is on the table Noaway"
