She was carefree. Happy. Safe.
Which he always wanted her to be. So he secretly scooped up a handful of flour and flung it at Jared. Some of it landed on her but most of it hit the side of his face.
Jared slowly turned and North smirked at him. Shock filled Jared’s face. Then he grinned back.
“Oh, it is on.”
Angie didn’t thinkthat she’d laughed so hard in her life.
Jared had sat her safely down at the table so she didn’t get hurt. But watching her two men engage in a food fight was utterly hilarious.
Of course, by the time they finished, Jared had North in a headlock and was grinding his cock against the other man’s ass while he bent him over the kitchen counter.
Hot.
Freaking hot.
The kitchen was a disaster, though.
“It’s going to take you guys a long time to clean all this mess up. And we still haven’t baked a proper cake for the tea party.”
Both men shot their gazes to her and straightened.
“It’s going to take us a long time?” North drawled. “You participated in this. In fact, some might say you started it. So perhaps you should be the one cleaning up the mess.”
“I can’t. I’m too Little.”
Jared folded his arms over his chest. “Little girls need to clean up after themselves.”
She let her lower lip drop out on a pout. “But I’m injured, too.”
Jared and North shared a look.
“I’ll clean it,” North said.
Jared nodded. “I’ll help.”
North raised an eyebrow. “Since when does the boss help with clean-up?”
Jared shrugged. “I’ll expect payment later.” His phone started ringing before they could begin cleaning.
And she did intend to help, she had just been pretending.
He frowned as he glanced at the screen. “Zander? What is it? What are you talking about?” Jared moved to pick up the TV remote. He turned on the TV mounted to the wall, flicking through the channels.
Angie gasped as the news reporter started to speak.
“Two bodies have been found buried in a forest near Stugley, Wyoming,” the reporter said. “Police are not speculating about the identity yet, but it is believed that they could be the bodies of two women that have gone missing recently.”
Several photos came up. There were two women missing near where she’d lived?
All of them blonde. All of them small.
And all of them looked like . . . her
“One piece of information that we have discovered is that the bodies were not intact. The heads were found first, buried separately.”
“Fucking hell,” Jared said.
