Chapter Thirteen

Billy drove Tom Dante’s borrowed Mercedes into the BMW dealership and found a spot right in front of the three-stories of windows lining the façade of the building. The sales guys would be tracking them to see what they were driving and what they would see was a hundred thousand dollar car that didn’t necessarily stand out like Kristen’s Aston would.

“Okay, sweet cheeks. Time to car shop.”

They’d been trailing old Alex all morning in the P.O.S. sedan and when he went to the same park he’d visited two days ago, Billy decided to cut bait on Alex and trail the guy he had met with. Besides, Kristen wanted the 4-1-1 on why Billy was so bent on Alex and he thought following the other guy would distract her. Right now, he wasn’t ready to fess up to the beefhead in the shed and Alex using the same Arabic word. Eventually, he’d have to tell her, but then he’d also have to explain why he’d never shared the shed incident. And he wasn’t ready for that.

Alex’s buddy led them back to the BMW dealership from their last journey.

“So, we’re car shopping?” Kristen asked.

“Pretend car shopping. I’m buying my gorgeous fiancé—that’s you, by the way—a BMW for her birthday.”

She rolled her eyes.

“M.H., just go with it. It’s a cover story. I need to get eyes on this guy.”

“I’ve always liked Beemers.”

“Maybe a convertible. Like your Aston.” He tweaked her nose. “You’ll have to wear a hat with that fair skin.”

“Story of my life.”

He grinned. “Let’s go shopping. Honey.”

The minute they walked through the sliding double doors into the slick, black-and-chrome-encased showroom, a salesman approached them. Billy held his arms wide. “My fiancé needs a hot car. I’m sure there’s nothing half as gorgeous as her, but do your best.”

The sales guy glanced at Kristen then back to Billy. “Certainly. I’m Dave.” He stuck his hand out and Billy shook it.

“I’m Jack. This is Elle.”

“Nice to meet you Jack and Elle. Did you have a price point in mind?”

“A lot.” Billy scanned the showroom and all the desks lining the far wall. No park guy.

Dave took another gander at Kristen’s fancy dress and spiked heels and apparently determined she did, indeed, have that I’m-loaded look. “Let’s head over here. I have a nice 7 series you might like.”

“This blue one is nice.” Kristen dragged her hand along the hood of the car like she’d done with her Aston that day in front of the hotel, and Billy breathed deep. Something about the way she did that always turned his thoughts carnal.

He cleared his throat. “Yeah, honey, get in there. See what you think. Maybe we’ll drive it. I’m gonna check out the service department.”

“Our service department is the best in Miami,” Dave said. “Ranked number one three years running.”

“Even better. Take care of my girl while I check it out.”

“He has a fetish with service department cleanliness,” Kristen said. “So high maintenance.”

Billy cracked a smile at her theatrics and headed through yet another set of sliding doors.
