CHAPTER THREE
Three Months Laterâ¦
At the big oak door of Dekeâs office, the man paused briefly and knocked. When Deke called out, he opened the door and came inside. The office was neat and tidy. The large oak desk in front of him was littered with papers and a laptop but he paid them no mind. As his eyes met the manâs behind the desk, Wiley swallowed hard.
Deke was a big man, six foot six inches, and at least three hundred fifty pounds of raw muscle.
His short black hair was brushed back away from his face and his eyes were the color of ice. His hands were just as big as the rest of him and could easily break a man in half. âWhatâs up, Wiley?â
âWe have someone sniffing around, asking questions about one of the dancers.â
Deke sat back in his chair. His fingers steepled while his steely gaze met his Sergeant at Arms.
âNow who would be foolish enough to do that?â
Wiley shrugged. âIt was a young woman. She first asked Hal about her but when Hal wouldnât give her any answers, she went into the ladies room after Candy. I donât think Candy would talk, but you never know what chicks are gonna say.â
âBring Candy in here,â Deke ordered as he got up and moved from behind his desk.
A few minutes later, Wiley escorted Candy into the office.
She took one look at the big manâs face and began to tremble.
âI understand we had someone asking about Peaches.â
Candy groaned. âShe asked but I didnât answer.â
âWhat did she want to know?â
âShe said she was a friend and just wanted to know if Peaches was okay,â Candy answered truthfully. âShe told me to have Peaches call her.â
âCall her where?â
âSheâs at the Star Bright, room 104. I swear boss thatâs all she said.â
Deke stared at the woman for a moment then nodded. âItâs okay, you arenât in trouble, but the next time someone asks anything, you better be the one to bring it to my attention, not Hal or Wiley. I run a good place here and give you girls the protection you need to feel safe. I need you to look out for each other as well.â
Candy almost wilted in relief. âI understand boss. Iâm sorry I didnât come to you first thing.â
Deke watched as she turned and left. Then he looked over at Wiley. âMaybe you and a couple of the boys should go find this woman and bring her to me. I need to know what she wants with Peaches.â
âSure thing Prez.â Wiley grinned as he turned to leave.
âDonât hurt her man,â Deke called out, âJust bring her in.â
Wiley nodded at two other men and they all made their way to the parking lot. Mounting their bikes, they roared off.
A few minutes later, they parked near the Star Bright Motel, just down a few spots from the Jeep heâd seen the woman drive away in. Wiley glanced around the parking lot. No one else was around and he didnât want trouble.
Dismounting their rides, they all made their way to the door of room 104.
