CHAPTER THIRTY FOUR

CREED

I wanted to drive straight through but Truly begged me to stop in Albuquerque again. When I climbed out of her Escape my knee was stiff as hell and she heard my grunt of pain.

Truly put her hands on her hips and scolded me. “That’s it, tough guy. You’re off that leg for the night. I’ll draw you a bath so you can soak it.”

I felt a little ridiculous when she ordered me into the tub. Once I got in the warm water though my body was grateful. My muscles relaxed and the throbbing in my leg subsided. Truly knelt by the side of the tub and examined my swollen knee.

“Hey,” I tugged at her shirt. “If I have to be naked then you have to be naked. It’s only fair.”

“And I do care about being fair,” she drawled as she pulled her clothes off. She looked down at my body and it seemed like she was trying not to smile. “You’re supposed to be relaxing.”

I pointed at my dick. “I can’t do a thing about him. He’s got a mind of his own.”

She laughed and then leaned over to jerk me off with her hand. Later, when we were in bed together and listening to a rumbling thunderstorm pass overhead she asked me what I was thinking.

I’d been thinking about people. It had always looked to me like everyone else walked alone except for us Gentry boys. My brothers and I were lucky enough to have each other in a world full of sad, lost souls. I didn’t see how I could have made it without Chasyn and Cordero. But there was more to life than brotherhood. I’d seen it first when Cord found Saylor. And now I had it for myself. I hoped Chase would someday find it too. If anyone ever needed a woman’s love it was him. Our fates would always be bound up together. But there was more than just the three of us now. I hugged Truly to my side and answered her.

“I was thinking that I had always kind of figured I would be on the outside forever. That the things which came so easy to almost everyone else weren’t meant to be mine so it was better if I never wanted them in the first place.”

She kissed my neck. “Like this? Us?”

“Yeah,” I said. “Like this. You know that Eric dude is pretty cool. We got to talking about women and about life. I told him what I just said to you, about being on the outside. He laughed and said, ‘The world is exactly how you decide to see it, Creed. Take it from a black cowboy in the middle of Oklahoma.’ Then he ate the rest of my French fries.”

Truly sat up suddenly. She straddled me and grabbed my arms, pinning them on either side of my head. I let her.

“Yield to no one,” she challenged me in the darkness.

“I’ll yield to you, baby,” I told her. She let go of my arms but continued to sit upright, watching me.
