Chapter 20
Iinternally groan. I’ve already shared so much about my past with Bethany. So much more than I have in any other poly. I try to obfuscate with, “I asked. She answered. We’ve been married for ten years.”
Fox’s eyes bore into mine. “You are not a romantic, sir.”
Yes, I am. For one woman and one woman only.
I glare at her and try again. “How are these details in any way pertinent to my clearance?”
A cat-like smile crosses her face. “Sir, you know as well as I do it all comes down to the details when we investigate personnel at your level.”
Fuck. Why did I have to train so many agents so well?
I mentally curse myself for being a fool to think she wouldn’t go down this avenue.
My head moves slightly to the right, where I look through the two-way glass.
Notwithstanding everything that happened yesterday, I can feel her presence somewhere nearby.
Loving me the way no one else can or ever will.
