“I’m supposed to do that,” Nicholas protested and marched toward her. “You don’t know what you’re doing.”

Scarlet stepped aside, and folded her arms over her chest, while Nicholas stopped only a foot away from Anita and grinned at her.

“As you wish,” Scarlet said. “Just thought I’d warn you not to touch what belongs to Cooper. He’s gonna rip your head off if you touch her.”

“Cooper?” Nicholas immediately stepped back as if bitten by a hornet. He looked her up and down appreciatively. “Fuck!”

Anita caught Scarlet winking at her. “Yep, so, you’d better not touch. And don’t look down her cleavage either.”

Nicholas’s head shot up, and Anita realized that Scarlet was having fun chastising him and felt sorry for him.

“Nicholas? I’m Anita. I’m sure Scarlet is only exaggerating.”

“No, she isn’t.”

Anita whipped her head in the direction of the door from where the familiar voice had come. Cooper stood there, a smirk on his face.

She shook her head at him. “You’re terrible.”

Cooper shrugged, the reprimand pearling off him like water off Teflon. Then his expression turned serious. “We’ve got a plan.”
