CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN

Abbie

I left Gabe with my bag. That wasn’t my intent, but I was rattled by how fast we’re moving, and at this point, I just need to make arrangements for the dog.

I enter the airport, the cold air behind me, warm heat suffocating me, yet it’s this man who’s suffocating me in all the right and wrong ways, as insane as that may sound. My head is spinning with him, my ex and God, everything. I don’t know how I went from trying to hire Reid, to kissing Gabe by the bathroom.

I walk to the counter and speak to the woman there. “Hi. Grayson Bennett rented a chopper and Gabe Maxwell and myself are supposed to be passengers. Gabe is on his way in, but he has a dog that needs to ride along.” I have this moment, where I realize what a couple we’re acting like.

“Of course. There will be an extra charge.”

“Expected,” I say. “And this is a large dog.”

We chat back and forth and I know the moment Gabe enters the airport and not because of the gust of air behind me, but because of the tingling awareness in my body that only this man creates. No one else has ever awakened every sense I own. No other man has ever taken me so off guard and held me so very close, and I’m not even speaking literally.

He steps to my side and Dexter starts whining for me, acting like he hasn’t seen me in years. I bend down to pet him and Gabe does the same at the exact same moment. We end up facing each other with Dexter’s big nose nuzzling my neck. “Hi,” I say because why wouldn’t I say “hi” right now.

He grins. “Hi.”

He leans in and kisses me. “You’re a tough bargainer, Abbie Tanner.” He presses his cheek to mine. “We’ll negotiate the terms of everything.” He pulls back and winks. “Right now, I need to get Dexter set-up.”

I swallow the crazy dryness he’s created in my mouth while making other places quite wet. “I took care of him.” I kiss Dexter and stand up with Gabe right along with me. “Did you now?”

“I did.”

“We’re here for Dexter.”

At the male voice, Gabe and I turn to find two men in khakis and white shirts eyeing Dexter. “That was fast,” Gabe said.

“You paid quite a lot for the service,” I whisper, warning him.

His lips quirk and he cuts me a look. “Did I now?”

“Yeah. You did.”

He laughs. “I’ll just eat ramen next week to make up for it.”

One of the men approaches and Gabe hands him the leash. He tugs on Dexter and Gabe grabs his arm. “He’ll kill you if you give him a reason. No tugging, shoving, kicking, hitting, biting, or yelling. Sweet talking and licking are allowed and good practice for other parts of your life. Talk sweetly to him. Love him. Show him you’re worthy.”

The man looks indignant. Gabe hands him a bag of treats he must have gotten at the shelter.
