Yep. There was horrified begging that came with the revelation that something terrible had happened, but she wasn’t ready to face it. “Your dad is being an asshole. TJ at no point had his dick out. It stayed in his pants the whole time.”
Kala bit her lower lip as though thinking the problem through. “Lou, did you keep your skirt on?”
“You know we should be getting ready for the debrief.” Cooper always tried to stay professional.
Kala didn’t let up. “That is what I am asking. I happen to know Lou likes briefs. Cotton briefs. That’s her jam. So the question is did my cousin debrief you, and that is what made my dad blind?”
Zach actually gasped. It was such a surprised sound coming from the normally rock steady, let-nothing-get-to-him captain he was. “Oh, fuck. It was bad when I thought this was about TJ taking a leak or something and the glasses caught his dick swinging. Did the big boss see you and TJ doing it? Holy crap. You and TJ did it in his interrogation cell?”
“We’ll never hear the end of this,” Cooper said with a shake of his head. He turned onto what looked to be a main road. They were somewhere in Bavaria, green forest rising all around them.
The forest where fairy tales were born.
Some fairy tale she had. Even her one and only encounter with the man of her dreams had turned into a nightmare. “Maybe he won’t want to talk about it. You know he sometimes buries trauma deep. He’s always telling us to swallow pain down like real men do.”
“You’ve met him, right?” Zach asked.
“Lou, my father is going to talk about this moment until death takes him.” Kala sat back, propping her feet on the sleeping guard. “He will bring it up at every meeting, every party he ever goes to for the rest of his life, so we need a reasonable explanation because we have to avoid this at all costs. So let’s think, people. Why would Lou get caught without her undies? I need solutions.”
“I don’t think there’s another explanation that Big Tag will accept,” Zach said with a shake of his head. He’d pulled the balaclava off his head and stowed his rifle and tactical vest. Cooper had done the same, so there wouldn’t be questions from the locals about a paramilitary group wandering the countryside.
“So we really think Lou and TJ were going at it?” Coop asked. “We don’t want to, you know, come up with something else.”
“Yes, some other reason,” Kala insisted. “Did one of the guards like punch your pussy and you needed TJ to make sure your pelvis wasn’t broken?”
“Yeah.” Coop got into it. “I told Big Tag I was worried because those guys seemed rough with her. We can work with this.”
She was slightly offended. After all the sex she’d been around because her friends were perverts of the highest order, and this was what she got from them? Like sex was for everyone but Lou, who should stay sweet and pure and never have a single physical need of her own. “Well, if that’s the option you choose, you’re going to have to explain why TJ felt the need to use his tongue during his very thorough examination.”
Kala went a bit pale, and Coop stiffened.
That felt better. If she was going to do the time, she wasn’t apologizing for the crime. Well, she also wasn’t going to tell them the real truth. That she’d gotten so caught in the moment she hadn’t thought about anything but how that man could make her feel. “The glasses went out when we entered the compound. I wasn’t sure how long you would be.”
“So you went straight for oral?” Kala had a hand to her head. “This is worse than I thought. We should keep driving. I didn’t like this job anyway. Coop, let’s go to one of those countries my dad doesn’t believe exists. Oooo, Luxembourg. He thinks it’s a European joke.”
How should she explain? “No, I didn’t go straight for oral. I didn’t go… TJ was hurt and I was nervous, and we might have gotten emotional. Honestly, I needed to give him something to do because he wanted to talk too much.”
“That’s why you had sex with TJ?” Zach had his head turned, a brow cocked over his eyes. A judgmental brow.
“I didn’t exactly have… Not in a full-on sense. It was more like a distraction in a lot of ways.” Yes, that was what had happened. Sure. She hadn’t been ready to keep her legs spread, to let him shove his cock in without anything close to protection. Nope. That hadn’t happened.
“You distracted him?” Cooper asked. “You couldn’t have like given him a riddle to solve or something?”
“You should think about that because my dad will ask the same questions,” Kala pointed out.
