“It wasn’t like this before. With Liam she was so sweet. But I swear the damn devil has possessed my wife and she might kill me in my sleep one night.” I laughed. “What the hell is so funny?” he asked. “I sleep with one eye open and one leg hanging off the bed touching the floor at my side. This way if I have to move fast I feel I’m one step closer.”

I enjoyed the remaining part of the day with Nan. And my evening with the most beautiful woman wrapped in my arms. It was exactly how I imagined spending the remainder of my days. And soon we’d have a little piece of us here to share it with too.

“Have I told you lately how amazing you are? Because you are, and the way you calm me, the way you give me a sense of clarity even in my weakest of times, just confirms how perfect you are.”
“I’m not perfect, Chase,” she whispered.
“You’re perfect for me,” I whispered.

“Dance with me,” Trinity said. As if I could deny her. I hooked my arm around her waist and pulled her body to mine. “I’d love too.” I couldn’t promise I wouldn’t be terrible at it, or that I wouldn’t step on her toes more than once, but I’d try. Because she wanted me to. I’d do anything for her.

Had I thought 7 years ago that I’d be where I am now, feeling the way I felt, I would have spent the last 7 years counting the moments until Chase found me. Sometimes, most times, I still felt like it was all a dream. He was a true southern gentleman through and through. He loved and cared with all he had.

Chase,” I whispered and his lips touched my forehead in a delicate kiss. When he remained in that position as if it was impossible to pull away, I then felt safe. Completely safe. All that mattered in that moment was the man who remained close, as if he needed to feel my skin against his to register that I was okay. Because that was exactly what I needed too. “You scared the hell out of me, sweet girl,” he whispered.

They were her people, I knew that. But I had every intention of becoming one of those people she relied on. I wanted her to love me and trust that I also wanted her happiness. I wanted it all for her, and I would be the one to give it to her. I’d be sure of that, because nothing had ever been more important to me than her smile.

Daisy Dukes didn’t even begin to describe the shorts Danielle wore as she walked toward our group.. The smirk she wore as her gaze locked with mine told me she had an idea what might be rolling around in my head. “That girl right there is trouble with a capital W. And I hate whores.” Jackson chuckled at his wife’s words.

“Child, I already know you’re here, ain’t no use in trying to sneak out the back door.” I froze, ramrod straight. I was terrified. “With you two moaning and squealing, sounding like a buncha baby pigs all night, there’s no way I couldn’t know you were here,” his grandmother added. Mortified. I was absolutely and completely mortified.

Chase never once made me feel like what we had wasn’t good enough. He was the sweetest, most gentle man I’d ever met. From the looks of him, you would expect something much different. Those tattoos and that pretty boy smile of his screamed dangerous. But the only thing he was dangerous for was my heart. I knew with just the small amount of time we’d had together, if he chose to break me, it would be so easy to do.
