Chapter 14

Grant stood with Ginny, Burt, and Burt’s wife near the end of the food table, keeping an eye on Jillian’s first Wine & Cheese with the Artists event. The coffee shop downstairs held the bar while the food laden tables were at the top of the stairs so that patrons could sample the cheese, fruit, and desserts as they wandered around, admiring the artwork.

“Earth to Grant,” Ginny called out, elbowing him in the abdomen.

“Umph,” he grunted as he whipped his head around to glare at the pint-sized officer attired in a cocktail dress and heels. “What’d ya go and do that for?”

“Because you haven’t stopped shooting daggers at that artist standing over there next to Jillian for the past ten minutes.”

He had not been able to relax since seeing Jillian upon arrival, gorgeous as always, but in a sexy cocktail dress. He had to admit it was pure class. In fact, the dress was modest from the front with a simple neckline that scooped down but did not show much of her cleavage. He had no idea if the blue material was silk, but it flowed off her figure and landed mid thigh. Paired with her high-heeled black pumps, she looked beautiful…and totally fuckable. And when she turned around, he groaned once more. The back of the dress dipped way below where he thought her bra strap should be and yet, there was nothing but satiny skin showing.

“Just making sure everything is going well,” he lied. Standing there pondering what lingerie contraption was worn underneath Jillian’s dress since her nipples were not showing from the front, he barely heard Ginny as she spoke again, rolling her eyes.

“Uh huh,” Ginny laughed, walking away with her plate filled. “Keep telling yourself that.”

Aiden and Brogan walked up, sampling the hors d’oeuvres as well. Brogan watched Ginny walk away, his eyes glued to the beautiful officer, her hair down for the first time he could remember.

“Who’s the guy with Jillian?” Aiden asked.

“He’s fuckin’ not with Jillian!” Grant growled, moving his head back so he could keep Oliver in his sights. “He’s an artist who happens to have some work here, that’s all.”

Aiden and Brogan shared a grin. “Hmm, sure looks like he’s with her,” Aiden continued, egging his friend on.

“Fuck you, man,” Grant said, huffing as he stuffed another bite-sized egg roll in his mouth.

“Wait, I think he just put his hand on her waist,” Aiden commented, unable to contain his laughter when Grant almost toppled over in his attempt to see through the crowd.

“Cut it out,” Brogan said, although his own laughter almost drowned out his words. “Grant, my boy, now that you’ve got your head outta your ass and finally made it official with Jillian, you’re getting a taste of what she’s had to put up with.”

Hanging his head for a moment, he nodded. “I know…and that doesn’t make it any easier.” Looking over, he watched Jillian step away from Oliver, putting a small display case between them. Her gaze shifted around until it landed on Grant’s, her smile blinding as it beamed toward him.
