24 Inches (Size Matters 2) - Page 42

Fuck.

She's right.

This isn't good.

"Are you seeing what I'm seeing?" April asks.

But I can't speak.

Just like in my dream, words seem to be cemented in my mouth.

My mind is racing a hundred miles an hour and I'm at a loss for words … because there's too many. I know I'd like to strangle Grady, but beyond the anger, I'm also confused.

Deeply confused.

"Hello? Are you still there, Anders?"

April sounds increasingly agitated.

"Yeah, sorry," I say. "I'm still here. Just stunned."

"I know. Me too. I know how much The Virgin Market meant to you."

On the live Facebook feed, Grady is talking about The Virgin Market. He's bragging to the world that he has a copy of the manuscript, and not only that, but he also has the rights to publish it.

Grady has a shit-eating grin from ear to ear. He says that Lana gave him permission—and not only that, but he's saying she signed over the rights for The Virgin Market to Bad Boy Publishing.

He's gushing.

I've never seen Grady happier. In fact, he's so happy that he's talking into the camera with his hands.

"It's going to be A-M-A-Z-I-N-G," Grady beams. "If you haven't already, reserve your copy today. This is a sizzling release you won't want to miss."

What the fuck?

"Did Lana actually give Bad Boy Publishing permission to publish her book?" April asks.

"Are you kidding me? Over her dead body! I know Lana, and she would never sign a contract

with them."

"I don't know, Anders. If Lana didn't sign a contract, how did Grady get a copy of the manuscript?" April asks.

She's right. None of this makes sense. Someone would've had to given it to him.

Then Grady says something even more shocking, as if I wasn't stunned enough already.

"The cover model for this book will be none other than Logan Kane, and believe me … this is gonna be a real scorcher."

Logan Kane? On the cover of Lana's book?

I feel my blood pressure climb and my pulse is drumming its own beat in my neck.

I'm pissed.

I'm more than pissed. I'm fucking livid.

"Let me make some calls," I tell April. "I'll get to the bottom of this."
