Free The Wildcat that Tamed the Tycoon by Sabel Simmons Page A

tell me.  Any child of mine will grow up with
both his parents in his life.  Do you hear me?”
    His voice was rough and hoarse.  His
eyes burned into hers, waiting for her answer. 
    She nodded and silently cursed
herself.   With his mother’s history and after what she just said, she had
placed herself in the same category as the one woman he hated above all.

Chapter Six
    Shane
glanced from the one to the other and shook his head.  The atmosphere between
Logan and Madison was so thick he could cut it with a knife.  She barely looked
at Logan when they got into the helicopter, but greeted Shane with a friendly
smile and chatted with him nonstop.
    Logan sat staring out the window, next
to him.  He never sat in the back!  He shot up in his seat.
    “What are you doing back here, big
bro?”
    Logan grunted, but did not bother to
respond.  He frowned.
    “Madison?”
    “Maybe I have suddenly grown horns.”
    Shane stuck his head around the seat,
and looked back at Logan.
    “Nope, no horns.”
    “Maybe it is my new perfume.”
    Shane leaned closer and sniffed in her
neck.
    “Wow … That is some potent perfume.
Hmm …  hey!”
    Shane complained when Logan grabbed
him by the neck of his shirt and threw him back against the seat. He glared at
him for good measure.
    “Okay … maybe you’re right.  It is
your perfume.”
    “Or maybe I am just trying to keep
from wringing her bloody neck!”
    “Now I am curious!  Do tell big bro!”
    “Curiosity killed the cat, little
bro.  Now kindly shut up, your incessant chattering is giving me a headache.”
    “Well, do you blame me?  Come on, out
with it!  You took him and Deidre to Dallas last night, didn’t you, Maddy?”
    She just landed the chopper and did
the shut down before she responded.
    “Yes … and I would prefer never to be
reminded of last night ever again, if you don’t mind.  I’d rather forget about
it altogether!”
    Shane huffed and jumped from the
chopper.  Before Madison could follow, a hard hand closed around her shoulder.
    “Look at me.”
    She turned her head and his eyes
caught hers, burning fire at her.
    “If there is one thing I never would
have thought of you, it’s that you’re a hypocrite.  You, my Wildcat will not be
able to forget last night and neither will I.”
    He leaned closer and kissed her hard
and possessively on her mouth before he turned and got out of the chopper.  She
closed her eyes and forced her thundering heart to slow down before she handed
the chopper over to the ground controllers and walked with dragging feet to the
Jet already warming up a short distance away.  She hoped he stayed in the back
all the way to Houston as well.
    Lady luck was on her side.  He sat
working on his laptop the whole trip, but then turned the tables on her again
when they stood next to the SUV they rented for their use.
    “In the back, Shane.  Madison is quite
an adequate chauffeur.  She’ll drive us around.”
    Madison glared at him and he raised a
sardonic eyebrow her way.  Shane looked from the one to the other and sighed
heavily.
    “You do know it is no fun to be the
only one left in the dark!  You’re sure Maddy?”
    “I believe I do not have much of a
choice.  As I was told last night … I am your employer, I give an instruction,
and you carry it out!”
    She deepened her voice in imitation of
Logan’s and Shane burst out laughing, ignoring Logan’s glare.
    “You said that to her?  You?”
    He couldn’t stop laughing until Logan
clobbered him on the back of his head.  He sobered and glanced at his brother.
    “Even tonight?
    “Even tonight.”
    “You do remember that you invited
Dottie to join us for dinner?”
    “Yes and your point are?”
    Shane glanced at Madison who stiffened
and her glare incinerated Logan.
    “No, I will not!  Do you hear me,
Logan Dalton!  I will not!”
    He just grinned and got into the back
seat, forcing her to play the role of chauffeur once again.  She grumbled and
got in
