pics are more like someone hid cameras in your house and clicked when you walked around and got out of the shower,” Roman said through a clenched jaw.
    â€œWhat the hell?” Carter exclaimed. “Who did it?”
    â€œWe don’t know for sure. We sent our security guy over to sweep her condo. He got them all, but we couldn’t trace where the feed was going.”
    â€œThis is getting nasty.” I shook my head in amazement.
    Fredrika spoke up. “Sad to say, it gets worse. Looks like Kevin is up to some new tricks. He’s got a swimsuit distributor saying you offered to do him regularly if he got your orders out the door first. A Harry Jamison out of New York.”
    â€œTo do him?” I shouted.
    â€œYeah. Like sexually. Must we spell it out?” Beau winced.
    â€œOh, for Christ’s sake. I talked to him on the phone once. Once! He made a half-assed pass, I laughed it off, and we moved on. I didn’t even handle his order; I sent him over to Inez in sales. I never even met this Harry guy face-to-face.” I snapped, slamming my palm down on the table.
    â€œIsn’t Jamison a notorious ass-grabber?” Yazlyn scoffed.
    â€œAnd a loudmouth to boot. No worries, though, chère ,” Beau said gently. “We already have three other designers that will attest to Harry’s bullshittery.”
    â€œI like the usage of bullshittery as a noun. Was that the good news?” Carter asked.
    â€œActually, no.” Beau continued, “The good news is that we’ve started digging into Kevin’s past and his business dealings.”
    I leaned forward. “How’s it looking?”
    â€œNot good for our friend Kevin. Seems he’s a flagrant asshole.”
    â€œI could’ve told you that with no special investigative skills.” I rolled my eyes.
    â€œAs could we all, sis,” Roman added. “But we found out he made some enemies on the way up by taking shortcuts and stepping on a lot of feet. We won’t go into details until we have all the facts, but if he wants to sling mud, looks like we’ll have plenty of our own to launch.”
    â€œOther good news: Your video statement was well-received. The more salacious aspects of Kevin’s original claims are still circling the newswires, but we haven’t lost any clients yet. And sad though it may be, the nude photos have actually upped our orders,” Belle said.
    â€œMy bare ass is glad to be of service,” I huffed.
    â€œWe have to have a pretty good criminal or civil case for fabricating the video and the stalker-y pictures by now, right?” Jewel asked.
    â€œWe will when we can prove that Delancey’s behind it,” Carter said.
    â€œSomething about this, though,” Beau pondered. “I can’t put my finger on it, but it feels like more than just a jilted dude with a big ego getting some revenge.”
    Belle nodded. “It does. But anyway, Kit-Kat; it’s up to you. We can let this thing die naturally or we can go to war.”
    â€œIf it was just him calling me a ho, I could let it go.” I shrugged.
    â€œCould you really?” Carter quirked a brow.
    â€œMaybe. But him coming after the design house like this, trying to muddy up all of us? The Montgomery name and whatnot? I can’t let that slide.” I glanced over at Carter, who nodded in agreement. He dropped his hand to my thigh and gave an encouraging squeeze. Who knew? Carter Parks was touchy-feely and I liked it.
    â€œThen we battle,” Beau said, rubbing his hands together.
    â€œYou don’t have to look so excited about it,” Roman scolded.
    â€œHey, he came after one of us, besmirched the family name. This I do not forgive,” Beau said with dramatic gestures.
    â€œIs that a Godfather impersonation, bruh? If so, it was pitiful,” Carter drawled.
    â€œIs that your hand on my baby sister’s thigh, bruh? If so, it is disturbing,”
