It was like the fly chasing the spider

Kitt recognized the name on the business card, and she recognized the firm he represented. Mel Belyle, Corporate Attorney, Castle Enterprises, New York.

Castle Enterprises was the corporation created expressly to handle the housing project in Crystal Creek. And this was the man her boss had predicted would never speak to her.

Yet here, in all his glory, was Mr. Belyle himself, trying to pick her up. She began to sound him out. “So,” she said with a demure smile, “what takes you to Austin?”

“Business,” he said. “What about you?”

“I’m going to visit my aunt.” After all, it wasn’t a lie. “I haven’t seen her in ages. It’s a shame to be out of touch with family, don’t you think?”

For a split second his smile wavered. He didn’t answer her question. “So what do you do?”

She shrugged as if her job was of small interest. “I work for the Gilroy Group.” This was misleading, she knew. The Gilroy Group owned six magazines, but was far more famous for its other holdings, especially its television network.

His eyes kindled with mischief. “Gilroy? Are you connected with that Uptown Girls show?”

You lecher, Kitt thought. “That would be telling. I’m not going to discuss it until I know you much, much better.”

He leaned closer. “That can be arranged. What do you want to know?”

“Everything,” she said. “Tell me simply everything.”
