I curled up on the loveseat in my suite, tugging the sleeves of a light sweater over my wrists, and tried to concentrate on a magazine. I could feel his presence like a parasite on the back of my neck, this albatross that would forever be strapped around my neck. Just when I thought things had gotten bad enough, Juan brings in this asshole.

“I’m not going anywhere. You don’t have to watch me every second.”

“I have my orders.”

“I’m sure you do. Did he tell you that he’s gotten threats on my life? That he thinks that someone might be out to get me because he was such a playboy before he married me?” I laughed, a sound that was less humorous and more sarcastic. “It’s the same line he’s used with all the other security guys he’s hired to watch me.”

“He’s done this before?”

“Every fucking time he’s gone out of the country since we got married.”

“Watch your language!”

I laughed, this time more amused. “Oh, you’re one of those.”

“One of what?”

“Uptight Christian hypocrites.”

“Hypocrites?”

I glanced at him, my heart doing this little flip when my eyes took in the beauty of him. At least Juan had picked a good-looking guy this time. A little distraction was always a nice thing.

He was tall, wide, but not in a sloppy sort of way. He was muscular, his arms straining the arms of the sports coat he was wearing over a pair of dark jeans and a polo shirt. There was a telltale bulge under one arm—he was packing. That didn’t surprise me. Most of Juan’s security dicks carried. But most of them were skinny, dark Latinos. This guy…he was blond, and he had amazing green eyes. And there was this little bit of scruff on his chin that I normally disliked, but there was something about the way it looked on him that made my fingertips itch to touch it.

He was so good looking that I was losing my train of thought.

“Why are Christians hypocrites?”

I shrugged. “They’re all pious and polite in church, but the moment they walk out into the real world, they cheat on their wives, beat their children, and decide who should and shouldn’t be allowed to get married. A bunch of hypocrites.”

“Not all Christians are the same.”

“Enough are hypocritical to make it more a rule than an exception.”

“Then asking you not to use that curse word makes me a hypocrite? You don’t even know if I’m a Christian.”

“You’re right. I don’t know. But if you’re anything like the rest of Juan’s bodyguards, you are.”

He crossed his arms over his chest, but he didn’t say anything. I smiled, liking that I was clearly getting under his skin. Goading these fools was the only fun I had most days.

“Did you grow up here in Texas?”

He glanced at me, his eyes narrowed just slightly. “I don’t really like to share information about my personal life with clients.”

“Yes, well, we’re going to be locked up in here for the better part of a week.
