Masters & Lovers Box Set Three
Chapter 40
“Put your things in there. It’s the guest room.” He eyes the holdall she is carrying. “Is that all you have?”
“Yes. Max had them pick up some of my things, but I couldn’t carry much from the hotel.”
“Give me your keys and your address. Tell me what you want. Make a list. I’ll pick it up for you.”
She jots down…
… For the long term…
… Never going back…
… Clothes and personal items, a box she keeps containing bank books, tax records and similar, her client records and diaries, a few precious books. A cookie jar she uses for handy cash.
Frank scans the list. “Sure that’s all?”
“It’s fine. I won’t stay with you longer than I have to.”

“I’ve brought back what I could, Mitch, but I couldn’t find all of it.” Frank dumps a suitcase containing clothes by the bed, then another. Your books are still in the car, but I couldn’t put hands on those records you were talking about. Or the cash.”
Wide-eyed, she chews a lip. “But… but they must be there…”
“Weren’t. I looked high and low. They’re not in there.”
She looks at her feet. “The police must have taken them.” She swipes a hand through her hair. “Never mind. I’ll go to the bank. Draw out some cash.”
“There’s one just down the road. I’ll drive you.”
*****
“What do you mean? I can’t have it? It’s my money. That’s my ID there…” Mitch pushes her driving licence under the counter at the teller.
“I’m sorry madam, but the account is locked. There’s nothing I can do about it.”
“Let me talk to the manager.”
“I’ll see if he’s available, but these matters are handled by headquarters.”
*****
“Any luck?” Frank pushes a mug to her. “It’s peppermint tea. I know you like it. I got some in for you.”
“Thank you.” Subdued, she sips. “No. No luck. All they would say is that my account is frozen.” She raises liquid green eyes. “What am I going to do? I’ve no money…”
He sits by her, lays a hand on her thigh. “You’ll get it back when it goes through the courts, Mitch.”
“Frank, don’t you see? I don’t dare do that. Someone is trying to frame me. Someone has framed me. Someone with police connections. My lawyer’s already been murdered. What kind of people d’you think these are?”
His voice is flippant. “You can earn more money, Mitch.”
He doesn’t believe her…
Not really…
Not deep down…
“How? I can't show my face. Frank, I’ve got to get away from here.” Pressing fingers to her forehead, “Christ, I’m painted into a corner. I’ve no money. I can’t work. If I moved away, I’ve nothing for a down-payment on a new place…”
“Hey, Mitch. Calm down.” He tightens his hold on the thigh. “You’ve got me. Stay as long as you want.”
“Frank, I can’t pay rent or housekeeping or anything…”
He smacks a kiss onto her forehead. “Don’t worry about that. There’s more than one way of paying rent isn’t there?” She turns to meet him full in the face. “And besides…” He waggles a finger at the silver butterfly hanging around her neck. “… You’re still wearing it. So, Larry or no Larry, you must like me, eh?” He slips an arm right around her, curving around spine and ribs to settle on a breast, giving it a squeeze. “What d’you say?”
What choice does she have?
Slumping, eyes brimming, Mitch turns to look the other way. Slowly, and for the first time in her life, feeling like a whore, “Alright, Frank. I’ll stay.”
