Love is hard...

A Few Weeks Later…

She feels safe now, I gave her that. My silence has made it easier for her to live. But the time for waiting is up. She is mine and mine alone. Do they think I will just walk away from what belongs to me? He is one of my challengers. I’ll take him first. My angel needs me. She craves what only I can give her. She will wait no longer for my hand. It’s time for me to collect…

Alex was still here. Not only that, he’d turned her life upside down. He’d had bullet proof glass installed on all of her windows. He’d added more security around the perimeter of the house. He had appointed himself as her protector and he meant it.

His PI Ben was good, she had to admit. Somehow he’d found one of the places Josh was using as a hideout. The FBI was there along with the Chicago PD. They believed Ben’s investigation was causing Josh to veer from his plan and that meant he might start making mistakes.

As for Alex himself, he was starting to grow on her. Hell, who was she kidding? She wanted him like a grown ass woman wants a sexy ass man.

“Do you like it?” she asked hesitantly. Unlike him she’d given up half way through her plate.

“No, not at all,” he said honestly, earning a laugh from her. She’d gotten used to his frank nature. He didn’t like lying so he didn’t do it.

“Then why are you still eating it?” she asked, her eyes sparkling with amusement.

“Because I like you and I appreciate that you tried. But we should probably leave the cooking up to me. You’re a good cleaner, though,” he said taking a long sip of his wine.

“I am really good at that. Some people say that I excel at it,” she said dryly.

“And those people would be right,” he said, putting his glass down. “I have to go to New York for the weekend to check on a client and I want you to go with me.”

“How long?” she asked. She ignored the heavy beating of heart at the news of his leaving. He wasn’t hers. She needed to remember that.

“Just a couple of days. I have security for the trip and we will be staying at my
