Stone
Westmoreland
lifted
a
brow
and
glanced
across
the
room.
The
woman’s
back
was
to
them,
so
he
couldn’t
get
a
look
at
her.
“You’ve
met
her?”
he
asked
in
surprise.
Ian
chuckled.
“Yes,
Storm
introduced
us
in
New
Orleans.”
That
comment
got
everyone’s
attention.
Chase
stared
at
Storm.
“You
took
her
to
New
Orleans
with
you?”
Before
Storm
could
respond,
not
that
he
would
have
anyway,
Ian
spoke
up.
“Of
course
he
didn’t
take
her
to
New
Orleans
with
him,”
he
said,
as
if
the
thought
of
Storm
taking
any
woman
out
of
town
with
him
were
ludicrous.
“They
just
happened
to
be
in
the
same
place
at
the
same
time.
Her
father
was
Storm’s
old
boss,
Adam
Cole.”
Thorn
Westmoreland
took
a
slow
sip
of
his
drink
and
said,
“Her
parentage
is
old
news,
Ian,
but
her
being
in
New
Orleans
with
Storm
is
definitely
something
that
we
didn’t
know
about.”
“And
something
all
of
you
are
going
to
forget
you
heard,”
Storm
said.
The
tone
of
his
voice
matched
the
look
on
his
face.
Highly
irritated.
Totally
annoyed.
Deadly
serious.
“And
I
thought
I
told
you
guys
that
I
don’t
like
you
discussing
my
business
like
I’m
not
here.”
Chase
gave
his
twin
a
dismissive
shrug
and
said,
“Yeah,
whatever.”
He
then
turned
his
attention
back
to
Ian.
“So
what
else
can
you
tell
us
about
Storm’s
lady?”
