“What are you doing after this? Going straight to Naveah?”

His hair was even messily rumpled, and grrr… I wasn’t happy about this change, not one bit.

He laughed, rubbing a hand over his jaw. “Man. Your reaction right there was more than enough to do this. Matt promised me you’d be pissed, but I think I just got a hard-on.”

“Gross.”

His shoulders kept shaking in laughter, but he grew somber a second later when Fitz came around the corner. Tony straightened from the wall. “What?” He motioned behind me. “We can’t break into an apartment when you have a guard with you.”

I looked over my shoulder.

Fitz hadn’t spoken a word when we made up the plan or left for the plan, and now we were here to activate the plan. Not one word. I should’ve been worried about that, but I was also not in the mindset to look a gift horse in the mouth.

I just shrugged. “He won’t say anything.”

Tony let out a long, dramatic curse. “Are you kidding me?He probably called Kash while you guys were figuring out this whole plan in the first place.”

I looked at Fitz. “Did you?”

He just looked down at me, not a blink.

I groaned.

Tony cursed again. “Fuck!”

Well, crappers.

I took a breath. “How long do we have?”

Now he talked. And he blinked. “Seven minutes, if even.”

Tony pushed farther away from the wall, stalking over. “Is Kash coming himself?”

Fitz swung his head to Tony, but he was done talking. He had fulfilled his daily minimum apparently.

Tony flicked his eyes upward, his hand going to the back of his neck before he motioned to me. “I’m getting you in, then I’m taking off. I don’t want to be here when Colello shows up. He’ll rip me to pieces.”

He turned, leading the way to Camille’s door, and took out a set of keys.

I eyed him, trailing behind. “Do you do this often? Is that why Matt sent you?”

“What?”

I motioned from him to the door, and to his keys. “Breaking and entering. You do this often?”

He laughed. “My dad owns this building. Matt sent me because I have a universal key to every apartment and door.”

Oh.

Oh!

Well, then. “Guess we’re not really breaking and entering, then?”

“No, we are. I have no right to enter her apartment when she’s renting it, but I know the security guys. Got ’em to turn off the cameras for the next three hours.” He inserted the key. It fit. He paused and looked at me. “I mean it. I was going to stick around and wait, but if Lethal Boy Toy is on his way, no way am I sticking around.”

“Seraphina has a crush on you.”

He almost fell into the wall from my words. His eyes went wide. “And? A lot of chicks have crushes on me.”
