Chapter Six

Two hours later, Rafe pulled into a service station, got gas, and handed the wheel over to Diamond.

“You are too much, Raferty Carmichael. Jeez, a whole hour and a half, lucky me,” she said as she switched places with Rafe in the SUV.

Rafe hated his decision the moment Diamond pulled onto the freeway. She drove like a bat out of hell. He held himself back from saying anything. Rafe kissed the dashboard when they came up on the exit for Halverston, a city right outside of Louisiana. His relief was short-lived as Diamond took the exit like she was an Indianapolis 500 racecar driver.

“Dammit, Diamond!” he yelled, and sent up a prayer to the master of breath, God, and even threw in a couple of Hail Mary’s. He would have to have a serious talk with her about her driving. He was not going to be worried about her every day of their lives together because of her driving. Wait a minute…where did that come from? He didn’t know where it came from, but he could deal with that. Diamond was his woman, whether she knew it or not.

“Shit! Diamond! This is a truck, not a car. You want us to flip over?” he shouted.

“Oh, stop your bellyaching. We’re here now,” she said, pulling into the Halverston Hotel parking lot.

“Thank you, Jesus!” he said, opening his door and jumping out of the truck. “Remind me, in case I forget, to never let you drive me anywhere.”

“What! We arrived safely, didn’t we?”

“Barely! Who taught you how to drive anyway?” He walked around to the back of the truck, grabbed their bags from the trunk, then walked around to where Diamond was standing by the truck and swatted her butt. “You scared the shit out of me, woman.”

“Ouch! The hell!” she screeched. “What was that for? Or are you just kinky like that?”

“To answer the first question, for adding more grey hairs to my head, and yes, I can be as kinky as you need me to be, sweetheart,” he said. “Come on. Let’s go check in. I need a shower.”

“I need a shower, a nap, and food. And in that order.”

“Lead the way, Brown Eyes,” Rafe said.

They walked into the plush lobby of the Halverston Hotel, which held all the amenities anyone could want: restaurant, boutique, fitness center, and indoor/outdoor pool. Halverston was definitely a nice place to live. If she didn’t love her home in Savannah so much, she would’ve loved to live here.

“Are we checking in, Brown Eyes, or what?” Rafe asked.

“Sorry. This is such a beautiful town. The hotel is magnificent! I can’t wait to explore!” Diamond’s excitement showed on her face.

“I can’t wait, either. Now can we please check in? I’m tired as hell.”

“Okay, okay, old man,” she teased.

“Humph, I got your old man,” Rafe grumbled under his breath.

“Whatever, old man. Either put up or shut up,” she tossed at him as she made her way to the concierge desk. Well almost. She almost made it.
