Mac opened the door, but positioned his body to
block Rex from entering.
“You get five minutes, Brewer. Then I want you out.”
“You’ve got no right to issue orders, McKenna. Step
aside.”
Towering above Rex, Mac didn’t budge.
“Come on, McKenna, don’t be an ass.”
Before he showed Rex exactly how much of an ass he could
be, Cade stepped between them.
“Hey, partner, he’s gonna see Eve eventually. Move and
let him in. The sooner he sees her, the sooner he’s on his
way back home, and out of our hair.”
Mac looked at Eve. A full grimace replaced her
half-smirk. Her eyes were all but pleading with his. Damn.
He let Rex in.
“Don’t forget, Brewer, five minutes.” Mac tapped the face
of his watch. “Starting now.”
Cade silently left the room. Mac stepped to a corner,
stood with his feet firmly planted, and crossed his
arms.
Rex moved to Eve’s bed and looked over his shoulder at
Mac, suspicion etching his features. “How about some privacy
here?”
“No fucking way, Brewer. You’re wasting your five
minutes…nope, make that four minutes, thirty-two
seconds.”
“Mac, please.”
Unable to refuse her, he gave in. “I’m right outside the
door if you need me.”
He zeroed in on Rex. “I’m watching the clock.” For good
measure, he added, “And you.”
Mac stomped from the room, deliberately leaving the door
open. Cade, standing in the hall, grinned and shook his
head.
“That little show of manliness make you feel better?”
“Fuckin’ right.”
