“Are colleagues off limits?”
Not necessarily, but he’d never noticed Alegria express an interest in him.
“Yes,” he answered instead.
“You might want to tell her that before you make her a partner.”
“Is this the only kind of car you drive?” Ava asked him when the golf cart delivered them to the hanger and she saw another Porsche Cayenne parked outside.
Razor laughed. “Coincidence.”
Ava nodded, but he got the feeling she didn’t buy it.
“Hungry?” he asked after they left the airfield and were on the highway.
“What time is it?”
“Four.” They hadn’t eaten since breakfast; she had to be as ravenous as he was.
“Um…”
Razor smiled, waiting for her to continue.
“Where’s Gunner and the other guy?”
“They went ahead.”
“Oh. Are they staying at your house too?”
“No, but they’ll be nearby. Answer my question, baby. Are you hungry?”
“You can pretty much assume the answer to that question will always be yes.”
Another thing he loved about her. She had an appetite and wasn’t afraid to eat when she was with him. So far, more than he did.
He loved her curves and softness, particularly now that he knew how it felt to sink deep inside of her.
“There’s a place I haven’t been to in years, but it’s been around forever, so I assume it’s still good.”
She smiled. “I’m pretty easy to please when it comes to food, Tabon.”
He pulled off the highway and took a side road up a hill. “The view is spectacular from here.”
Sweetwater was a restaurant he visited often with his grandmother. It had been one of her favorites, and he hadn’t set foot in it since she passed away.
He parked and walked around to open her door, thinking how he never imagined eating here again, and yet, now, it was important to him to share it with Ava.
“It is spectacular,” she gasped, looking out at the three-hundred-and-sixty-degree view of rolling hills of vineyards.
“I thought you might like it.”
He kept his hand on the small of her back as they walked along the garden pathway to the entrance.
“Did you talk to Gunner and the other guy?” Ava asked after they looked over the menu and ordered.
Razor took a sip of his beer and nodded.
“Can you tell me anything?”
