“What the fuck is going on?” Ky asks from behind Colt.
“No fucking clue,” Venom says.
Jennings pops his head into the room, and Colt glares at the man who should know this isn’t a time to be interrupted. “We’re a little busy, Jennings.”
“I know, but you got a visitor who needs to talk to you immediately. And you don’t wanna keep her waiting.”
“McKenzie?”
He nods, and Colt waves to let her step inside the coveted room. The door shuts, and she leans against the room. “Soundproof?”
“Yep.”
“Good. No one can know we’re talking right now,” Alex says. “I know you caught the look, and I’m here to tell you it’s not what you think.”
“Then what is it?”
Shrugging, Alex looks almost disgusted. “It’s not exactly easy to find a guy in town who isn’t taken, and it’s even harder to find one who can fuck you senseless. It’s just sex. I don’t even really like him.”
“You don’t?” Brian asks.
“I like… parts of you,” she admits, “but you’re a little young for me. Mentally. Not physically below the waist.”
“What about my mouth?”
Her hand lifts and moves side-to-side. “Eh, that needs work, but I’m particular in my sexual tastes. Brian can satisfy them.”
“I don’t tell her anything,” Brian says, his hands in the air. “And she doesn’t ask. In fact, we don’t really talk. We just… fuck.”
“Wait,” Ky says and steps forward with his finger in the air. “You’re bedding the lady cop?”
“I’m not just a cop, guys. I’m a woman, too. A woman who has needs, and the truth is, very few men can screw like a biker.”
Venom slaps Ky’s shoulder. “I know it’s not okay, but I’m a little impressed, kid.”
“Why should we believe you’re not getting information from him?” Colt asks.
“First of all, have you ever tried to have a real conversation with him? It’s like pulling teeth. Second, I’m the one who called Grayson.”
His eyes widen, and it makes sense. A little. “You’re working against Julian?”
“That’s why no one can know I’m here, and if Julian finds out I’m fucking a Drifter, he’ll have my badge. And then some. But he’s become a corrupt son of a bitch, and so has Travis.”
“She gave Grayson the heads-up that the warrant was being served?” Ky asks. “That’s kind of solid.”
“Look, I don’t want to lose my job because whether you believe it or not, I actually like helping people. And the only reason the city hasn’t gone to total shit is because the big players in the game don’t want to intrude on your turf. You’re doing more for the town by simply existing than Julian and Travis have done in years.”
Venom lets out a long breath. “I mean, if she’s helping us, and just getting her freak on, we can’t really be that mad, right?”
“I don’t even remember how it started—”
“You arrested me, and then we were left in the lockup alone during the power outage,” Brian says. “You ran into me and brushed my cock with your hand. It got hard, you got naked, and then we fucked three times until the lights came on.”
Laughing, she nods. “That’s the most I think you’ve ever said to me. And, sure, I remember. I was trying to help you out, but the truth is, we just meet in the parking garage and have at it in the backseat of a car or against it. There’s no talking. We don’t even say each other’s names. It’s just sounds and grunts.”
“LikeAnimal Planet.”
Colt can’t stop the snort at Brian’s assessment of his relationship. “This ends now, okay? For all of us, this can’t continue.”
