Excerpt
PROLOGUE
My phone
goes off as Siri and I enter the parking garage. It is Brutus, her bodyguard. I
pause letting her go ahead as I lift it and answer. “Moore here.”
“Good
morning. Are you on the move yet?” He asks.
“Affirmative.”
I answer as Siri walks to the car with her perfect ass twitching from side to
side.
“You
haven’t told her, have you?”
“Negative.”
He
chuckles. “She’s with you?”
“Affirmative.”
I tell him as I watch Siri stop at the car and look back at me. I give her a
head nod, and she waits, knowing I want to open her door for her.
“She’s
going to flip out, you know.”
I chuckle
at that. “That’s affirmative.”
“I hate I
can’t be there to see her reaction. Video it if you can.”
"I
will."
“Billy is
expecting you.”
“Thanks,
man.”
“No
problem. Have a safe trip back to Alabama.”
“I’ll give
you a heads up when her rehearsal schedule is confirmed and we will return.”
“Sounds
good. In the meantime, I’ll make sure her security detail is trained and ready
to go when her show starts.”
“Perfect.
Call if you need anything.”
“Will do.”
“Moore, out
here." I smile at my girl, my wife, my Wild Thang as I end the call and
walk to the car. She’s one of a kind that’s for damn sure. To think that just a
few days ago, she was fighting for her life at the hands of a drug addict…. I
shake the thoughts of what could have happened out of my mind. They didn’t and
that’s all that matters now. It was just a fluke thing. She was at the wrong
place at the wrong time. She kept her cool, came out of it unharmed, and
bounced back. Last night’s farewell performance as Seary proved that. She
brought the house down! The out pouring of love and respect from her fans was
proof that what I knew the first time I laid eyes on her was true. I recognized
a gifted and talented dancer before me who moved with the elegance and poise of
someone who should be dancing on a larger, grander scale. She was perfection in
motion and now she’s about to step into the role of a lifetime. She’s going to
be the star of Whitney Houston’s, I Will Always Love You, Cirque du Soleil show
and she’s going to kill it!
Watching me
approach her, she smiles so sweetly at me. To be such a tough girl, she’s so
utterly sweet to her core. She loves everyone and doesn’t judge anyone. I’m so
thankful I found her. She’s the light of my life. Until her, I lived in a state
of hopelessness. Never believing I could love like others. My military bros
nailed my call name Hard-Core. I was hard. Hard to my core. But this sweet
Alabama girl changed all that. Siri Wright rescued me and I love her more than
life itself. I don’t know what I would have done if anything would have
happened to her.
Patiently
waiting for me to open her door because I insist she let me, she flirts,
devouring me with her twinkling eyes. Sex is always on her mind, and her hunger
for me is insatiable. Fuck, I love that about her too. I can give her
everything I have and she takes it all. She’s one hell of a woman.
I slide my
arms around her and pull her curves against me. She tips her face to mine,
puckering her lips wanting my kiss. I
place my lips on hers, knowing she’s going to be ecstatic with the security
solution Brutus and I agreed was idea for her. She will be protected 24/7. No
matter if we are in Vegas, Alabama, or Italy.
She’s
smacks my lips and I let her go. I just have to keep her safe for the next
year. When I open her door, she slides silently in, and I wait as she straps
her seatbelt on. Then I walk around the front of the car and she hits the horn,
making me jump. I roll my eyes. I should have expected that.
When I open
the drivers door, she’s giggling at me. I get in, lean over, and get another
peck from her playful lips. That’s my girl. Always happy. Enjoying life to the
fullest. “I’m glad you’re in such a good mood.”
She grins
wickedly back at me and says, “I’m feeling feisty.”
“Oh, snap.”
I grin as I crank the car and back out.
When I pull
onto the highway and head to the address Brutus sent, she asks. “What’s on the
schedule today?”
“First, we
have an appointment to pick out your new security system. A gun was a good
idea, but obviously, it isn’t practical for you. Brutus and I agree you need
something that is visibly a deterrent and you need to take it everywhere you
go.”
She nods,
knowing we have her back. Then her phone rings. She looks at it, then at me.
Her eyes are big as saucers. “It’s Mama.”
I laugh as
it keeps ringing and she simply stares at it. “Better answer it, Baby Thang.”
She raises
it and says, “Hey Mama.”
For the
next few minutes, I hear Siri give her mother and father the live version of
the video we recorded and sent them announcing we were married. She tells them
again who I am, how we met, that we love each other, and that yes, we are
officially married. She grins at the dashboard and says, “Yes ma’am. I can’t
breathe without him. You were right.” Then she grins at me and says, “Yes, he’s
Zita and Bob’s boy.” She laughs, “Yes, ma’am. We will be home when you get
there. We’ll talk about the celebration then. Okay. Love you too. Give each
other a big hug from me. See ya soon.”
When she
lowers the phone, she says, “They’ll be home at the end of next week.”
“Perfect,”
I grin and know without any doubt she is totally okay with making our home in
Alabama.
“So, this
new security system … is it a taser or what?"
"Or
what."
She smirks.
“Oh, that’s how you’re going to play this?”
I laugh.
“Affirmative. I want you going in completely open minded without any
preconceived ideas.”
She puckers
her lips. “You enjoy making me wait, don’t you?”
I laugh,
“Yes.”
She
pretends to growl at me. “You rascal. How far away are we?”
“About
fifteen minutes. You can wait that long.”
She waits
about two before she asks, “Can I assume it’s new technology then?”
“This
particular model has only been on the market about 8 weeks."
“Wow.
That’s not very long.” I hit the right turn signal, and she looks in that
direction. “Does it come in different colors?”
“Yes.”
“James will
be upset if I have to wear something that doesn’t match perfectly with his
costume designs.” She cuts her eyes at me. “James is very picky.”
“Trust me,”
I smile. “James will be fine with whatever you choose.”
She sits in
silence for another few minutes, looking around at all the houses in the residential
neighborhoods we are driving though, then asks, “Are you lost?”
“No, I know
exactly where I am.” I grin. “As a matter of fact, I own about twenty houses in
this subdivision.”
“Oh.” She
perks up and starts to pay more attention now. “Does Kip manage them for you?”
“Yes, he
and Bianca.”
“They are
an interesting couple.”
“They’ve
been with me for years.”
