She wore a black pantsuit with a heavy belt that could wrap around her waist and hold the gun at her side. She was FBI and didnt have to worry about concealed carry, so the fact that her gun flashed when her suit jacket flared out, which was every time she moved, wasnt an issue. The gun looked very stark against her white button-down shirt. "Yep," I said. My own gun was at the small of my back, underneath a suit jacket made to hide the gun from the clients at my other job. Id also started getting belt loops added to my skirts so I could wear a belt that could stand up to the weight of a gun and holster. Id come straight from Animators Inc., where the motto was, "Where the Living Raise the Dead for a Killing." Bert, our business manager, didnt believe in hiding the fact that raising the dead was a rare talent, and you paid for talent. But lately my job as a U.S. Marshal for the Preternatural Branch had been taking more and more of my time. Like today. The other very special agent, Mark Brent, tall, thin, and looking barely old enough to be out of college, was bent over the portable computer theyd brought with them, which was sitting on the rooms only desk. He was dressed in a suit almost identical to Mannings except his was brown to match his holster, but his gun was still a black bump, stark against his white shirt. We were in the office of our head honcho, Lieutenant Rudolph Storr. Dolph was currently somewhere else, which left me alone with the FBI and Sergeant Zerbrowski. I wasnt sure which was more dangerous to my peace of mind, but I knew Zerbrowski would mouth off more. He was my partner, my friend, he was entitled. Id just met Special Agent Manning, and I didnt owe her my life story. "The article I read made the proposal sound amazing, like something out of a fairy tale," Manning said. She smoothed her shoulder-length hair back behind one ear and it stayed put, because it was straight as a board. My own curls would never have behaved that well. I fought the urge to sigh. If youre a cop and a woman, never date a celebrity; it ruins your reputation for being a hardass. I was a U.S. Marshal, but ever since wed gone public with our engagement Id become Jean-Claudes fianc Details ISBN0515155667 Author Laurell K.
