Summary
Tess is a powerful underworld figure, brokering information. When an internal threat has her questioning the loyalties of those closest, she must enlist the help of someone who has just as much to lose as she does. A bodyguard/boss AU set in the 1970s.
His fingertips brushed through the curtain of hair hanging to her waist. Dressing like a goddamn hippie with motivations that were resolutely square. A capitalist muckety-muck playing dress-ups with the beautiful people. Tess had some goddamn nerve and he wanted every last piece of her, Duke’s warnings be damned.
Because Duke was right – he’d never met anyone like her before. And maybe by getting a little closer he could unravel the enigma, because he’d meant what he’d told Duke – one woman was, essentially, the same as another. There were a finite number of parts people could play. And she was just playing one of them, concealing it a little better than most.
Tess whispered again in his ear: “You answer to me, now.”
