Chapter Twelve – Adam

Adam leaned against the wall, looking down over the hotel garden and daydreaming about Frankie. Their world was all kinds of mixed up, but it wasn’t messed up. Not yet.

“You wanted to see me, Adam?” Julius passed him a mug of hot coffee. “I thought you might like one since Hank tells me you’ve been wandering around like a lovesick fool this morning.”

“Did he?” Adam accepted the coffee. “Thank you.”

“Things are going well with Frankie?” Julius asked, looking down toward the Gothic folly.

“They are.” Adam stood up straight and turned to face Julius. “I have a couple of things to ask you, actually. Both directly or indirectly to do with Frankie.”

“As long as she isn’t asking you to leave your job, then I’m all ears.” Julius sipped his coffee, turning his face toward the sun. Summer was within touching distance, the birds were busy feeding their young, or teaching their new fledglings to fly, while the plants in the garden were ready to put on their most colorful display. It was a perfect time to show off the hotel and its grounds to the general public.

“No, she knows I’m married to the hotel,” Adam assured him. They’d talked it over last night after he took her home, and they showered together, before he made love to her in her bed. Twice. Then they’d stayed up talking, Frankie telling him of her plans for the animal rescue center, if Ronni okayed them, while he explained to her how the hotel had given him a lifeline when he needed it most.

“Then fire away.” Julius was in a jovial mood, so different from the man he’d been when Adam first started working here. Then they’d been a matching pair of brooding males, bereft of their mates, and dwelling in the constant shadow of loss.

“Frankie has started to volunteer at the local animal shelter, and she came up with the idea of a dog show. She hoped to draw attention to the plight of homeless dogs and cats.”

“And she asked if we could hold it here?” Julius asked, his voice quiet as he thought over the prospect. Julius never gave a vague answer, he was a yes or no kind of man, and always took his time to think things over carefully, weighing up the pros and cons.

“I would organize it. I thought it would show off the hotel when the gardens were looking their best. Frankie would organize the advertisements, and create a stir on social media. That’s something the hotel lacks, a big social media presence. We rely on word of mouth, but with the right push, I believe we could be booked solid every day of the week.”

“Did you practice that speech?” Julius asked.

“No.” Adam gave a short laugh. “But I do believe I’m right.”

“So do I. So the answer is yes. We can host it, but due to other commitments, as you know, we only have an opening in three weeks’ time.” Julius drained his coffee cup. “If you think you can pull it off, and I trust your judgment as always, then go ahead.
