Inwardly, Tiana was seething, but she couldn’t afford to indulge herself and show it. Somehow, exercising supreme control, she managed to keep her feelings under wraps.
“Tomorrow, then,” Tiana said to him as civilly as she could.
“Tomorrow,” Roland said with a smirk. “Or the next day.”
She turned on her heel and began to walk away. It was either that or lose all control and strangle the pompous ass.
When Brennan fell into place beside her, she looked at him almost accusingly. “I can find my way out of here without your help.”
“I’m your ride, remember?” he reminded her cheerfully.
Roland, apparently, hadn’t heard him say it. “Where are you going?” he demanded, eying Brennan, as if outraged that he’d leave without being dismissed.
“I’m taking her back to her car,” Brennan answered. “I drove her here, thinking it was better if she didn’t have a way to leave from the hotel unless you wanted her to leave.”
Roland appeared rather impatient for a second, then shrugged.
“Not half-bad thinking. All right, be quick about it—and then come back. I want details from you about that motel room and then I might have another assignment for you. See if you’re worth my time,” he said loftily. “So whatever you’re going to do,” he ordered, and it was clear he wasn’t referring to just a simple drop-off and delivery, “make sure you do it fast.”
“I’ll see what I can do to move things along,” Brennan replied respectfully, playing up to the man because there were a great many lives at stake if he played the game correctly and well.
He was well aware that the woman beside him—who in his opinion remained an enigma—clearly had contempt in her eyes when she looked at him.
