After making love two times in the bed and one time in the shower, Bull sure could have used that thirty-minute nap before they started getting ready to go to the fundraising gala.
Layla shooed him out of the bathroom so she could get ready, taking her dress with her. The garment had been wrapped in a dry-cleaning bag so he couldnât even tell what color it was. She wanted to surprise him.
While she got ready in the bathroom he dressed in the main room. Then he texted Rucker to see how things were going with their preparations to join him at the event.
Bull: Getting ready?
Rucker: Working on it. Didnât anticipate the need for four of us to dress formal. Scrambling, but we found suits in time
Bull chuckled. He could picture the others rushing around town, trying to find suitable attire for a formal event.
Bull: Whoâs designated inside?
Rucker: Mac, Blade and yours truly. Dawg, Tank, Dash and Lance have perimeter, keeping tabs of people coming and going
Bull smiled. Those were the people he wouldâve chosen to come inside and pull perimeter duty. Well, maybe not Blade. Heâd be too busy flirting with the women to notice anything untoward happening.
Rucker: Donât forget your communications devices
Bull: Got âem
Rucker: Stay vigilant
Bull: Roger. Out
It would be nice to be plugged in with his team throughout the evening, knowing they were there and could hear him if he needed them. And theyâd be his extra set of eyes and ears as well as having his back.
Bull was concerned about the eveningâs events. Any time there were that many foreign dignitaries and government officials in one place, things could happen. He just hoped that if things went down, he could get Layla and her father out before the shit hit the fan.
Bull: What do you know about the outcome of the riot earlier today?
Rucker: Turkish military quelled the uprising. Nearly one-hundred people were arrested or detained.
Bull: Thatâs a lot.
Rucker: You were lucky to get out. Five people died. One crushed to death, four fired upon by Turkish military upon the presidentâs orders
Bullâs chest tightened. The people of Turkey wanted change. The president had control of the military. If the people wanted change, blood would be spilled. Bull hoped he could keep Layla out of that line of fire.
But the route sheâd chosen was dangerous in itself. Somehow, he had to convince her not to participate with the underground railroad again.
One step at a time.
He had to get her through this eveningâs gala and back to the embassy alive.
His pulse quickened as he thought about what would happen after they got back to the embassy. He couldnât believe sheâd been standing there in front of him when sheâd come out of the bathroom earlier. Sheâd been ready and willing to make love with him. Heâd been dreaming about her, about the kiss and wanting more. It was as if heâd been woken from his dream but was still in it when sheâd climbed into his lap and kissed him.
