Luke hugged her with a smile and shut the door. "It's fine. I've already taken care of it."
Annie was astonished. "Huh?"
Sitting on the bed with her, Luke said, "Just pretend that you don't know anything. If anyone asks you, have them talk to me directly. Right, here's my contact. Keep it."
He gave her his card.
They had only exchanged numbers before. Luke hadn't given her a card, which had his title on it.
Annie read the card, only to be surprised. "The Major Crimes Division of LAPD? You're a level two detective?"
She had thought that Luke was a rookie officer, or maybe an intern, or he wouldn't have been sent here to be a safety training instructor.
Luke stroked her back to calm her down. "There's an inside story to this – it's best if you don't know anything about it. Don't worry. I just pissed off some guys who don't appreciate the rules."
