Jax had dressed for a simple evening of good music and dancing at the Confluence. They rarely went out on a weeknight, but the crowds were thinner compared to the Friday and Saturday ones. Jax watched, as Chance pulled on a black, long-sleeve T-shirt and tucked it into her blue jeans. Once she’d slid into a comfortable pair of worn cowboy boots, she turned to Jax. “Good enough?”

Jax licked her lips and stalked over to her. “I think I’d rather stay right here and take that outfit back off of you. Your ass is superb in those jeans.”

Chance kissed her nose. “You’re biased.”

“Maybe, but I speak the truth, and I can count on a dozen other people—men, and women—to check you out tonight.”

“Likewise, I need to make sure I get my gun.”

Jax felt Chance’s biceps. “With these guns, the metal one can stay in your boot.”

“You’re good for my ego, you know that?”

“I hope I’m good for a lot more than that.”

Chance picked her up and spun her around. “So much more. Now, finish getting ready so we can grab something to eat before Rhebekka goes on. I saw where Karmen’s food is on the menu.”

Jax slipped on a soft, green cashmere sweater that matched her eyes, and slid into a pair of tall riding boots. When she brushed through her long, black hair, she spied several more silver strands. This getting old sucks. “Good. I think she should cater the reception for us in the spare barn. We can stack the bales up against the walls and put round tables around the room. Mags and I’ve got some decorating ideas to make it simple but tasteful.” She felt arms come around her waist from the back and leaned into the muscled body that drew her close. Jax looked in the mirror to see Chance’s gaze devouring her.

Chance smirked and kissed her neck. “Scratch tonight’s plans. We aren’t going out.”

Jax smacked her arm. She turned and kissed her. “Yes, we are. You promised to dance with me.”

Chance bent and put their foreheads together. “It won’t be good for the sheriff to get in an altercation defending your honor. My God, Jax, you’re so sexy.”

Jax kissed her fiancée. “You certainly make me feel that way. Now come on, I’ve got my dancing boots on and I want to do just that. Is Zeus set for the night?”

“Our boy is fed, walked, and napping on the couch. I’ll go start the truck, it’s a little nippy tonight. Make sure you wear your heavier coat.”

Jax applied a little mascara and finished off with a little lipstick. “Yes, Mom.”

She watched in the mirror, as Chance left the bedroom. She stopped for a moment and looked around the room. Chance’s discarded uniform shirt lay over on the arm of the chair, her duty boots sitting below it where she’d taken them off. Jax picked up a photo of them Maggie had taken after they’d announced their engagement and ran her finger over the wide smile on Chance’s face.
