Unable to let her leave like that, I went after her. I caught her arm and pulled her to a stop. When I saw that she was crying, I felt my bear rage inside me. “Come on. My office is right down here.”

She let me scoop the boys up and pull her with me. Her hand gripped mine tightly and I could hear her heart racing. We were passing the ice cream shop again when the same woman who’d upset her initially stepped out and scowled. Heidi froze.

“Is that someone else’s husband you’ve got your hooks into? Shame on you!” The woman’s voice was harsh and cruel, her eyes just as condescending.

I put myself between the two woman and looked down at Heidi. “Come on, Heidi.”

She shook her head. “We’ve really got to get home. I have something to do that I just remembered.”

I felt my blood boil as she took the boys from me, a distressed look on her face. Before I had a chance to argue, she was rushing away, a child in each arm, sticky little hands in her hair, and ice cream dripping down one of the boy’s cones and onto her shoulder.

Spinning around to face the woman who’d hurt my mate, I found her staring after Heidi with a vicious scowl on her face. I didn’t like to yell at woman. I didn’t like to hurt women. Of course, in my line of work, there were exceptions. I’d dealt with women who could make Osama Bin Laden look like Mickey Mouse. With the sour woman before me, I was sorely tempted to snatch her up by her ankles and shake her.

“Who are you?” My voice was barely more than a growl and when the offending woman heard it, she stepped back.

“It doesn’t matter who I am.” She shook her head but took another step back concerned for her safety. “Are you married?”

I frowned, confused by the woman’s obsession with marriage. “Of course not! What’s your deal, lady? What do you just go around spewing vitriol and hurting people?”

“Me? ME? Don’t you know who she is? She’s the one who hurts people. A shameless hussy who breaks up marriages with her selfishness.”

It was my turn to step back. The venom coming out of the woman was overwhelming. “What are you talking about?”

“That’s Heidi Garcia from Love In An Instant. The TV show?” She rolled her eyes. “She was on the first season that came out. She’s a monster. She slept with people’s boyfriends, just to cause trouble. Her motto was something about being a slut and proud of it and she certainly showed the world her true colors. A complete trollop.”

I saw red and stepped closer to her. I lowered my voice and growled at her. “Watch your mouth. You’re behaving this way because of something you saw in a TV show? You’re the one who should be ashamed of yourself. I would say that you’re lucky you’re a lady, but I think we both know that you’re no lady.
