CHAPTER THREE

DREAM MOORE

This has to be a dream.

My feet were planted in their place like a hundred-year-old tree. My eyebrows were raised, my lips parted and a soft chuckle sprang forth from somewhere within me. I sucked in a quick breath and covered my mouth as my heart raced, still disbelieving every bit of what my eyes filtered into my mind.

He reached behind himself with his right hand and used his open palm to push me a step back, creating additional space between us. “Three,” Sex-on-a-stick counted. He hadn’t counted to one or two, and skipped right past those numbers. He ran forward and covered the distance between him and the closest man in two steps.

Payton had called the warrior guy “Monroe.” He was without question the largest of the three and the biggest threat as far as I could see. He was also the closest to us, and the one Sex-on-a-stick chose to engage first. Monroe swung a wild, but strong right hand and hit nothing but air, as Sex-on-a-stick came in crouched and low. He exploded upward with his left hand balled tight in a tremendous fist and connected with the side of Monroe’s head. The force of the blow staggered Monroe and he stumbled into the right fist Sex-on-a-stick sent as a follow up attack to his midsection. It seemed like the punch blasted through Monroe, as he bent forward with a loud grunt and dropped to one knee. Sex-on-a-stick didn’t give Monroe a chance at recovery, because as soon as Monroe fell to his knee, Sex-on-a-stick delivered the final blow with his left fist, crashing it against Monroe’s temple with such force Sex also fell to the ground and landed on both hands. Monroe’s eyes rolled back into his head and he tumbled to the ground in a twitching, convulsing mess. The entire encounter lasted only a few seconds, and Sex-on-a-stick was back on his feet. He glared at the remaining two men, and curled his upper lip in a savage smile.

“You son of a bitch,” Club bouncer guy exclaimed and drove forward.

“Come here,” Payton called out.

Both men spread out and assumed the two points on a triangle, with Sex-on-a-stick splitting the difference between the two as the third point as they sought to surround him.

“You sure you want to do this?” Sex-on-a-stick asked. “You saw what I just did to your boy. You might want to get him some medical attention, cause if you do this then neither one of you will be awake to help him. And then all of you are going to need some help.”

“I’m going to kill you,” Club bouncer guy growled.

“Bring it on, Ted,” Sex-on-a-stick goaded. “I need a practice dummy to go against. I’ve gotten rusty since I’ve been on vacation.”

Ted roared and charged like a raging bull from Sex’s left. Payton, in a coordinated effort, rushed in on Sex’s right side. Sex sidestepped Ted’s charge in a fluid motion to rival any a skilled bullfighter would do, and
