Chase started to pass Mr. Neal, when the man shifted to stand in front of him. This wasn’t the best first impression a man could make on his father-in-law, but he couldn’t worry about it now. Not when Maggie was still in danger.

Mr. Neal poked a finger into Chase’s chest. “If you so much as make my daughter cry, I’ll hire a hit man and put you out of her misery. Do you understand?”

Chase didn’t bother to tell Mr. Neal that all of Maggie’s protestations were bogus, and that she planned to ditch him as soon as it was humanly possible. Annulment, divorce, whatever it took, she planned to untie the knot they’d forged with tequila and good times on the beaches of Cabo.

He couldn’t blame her or her father for their skepticism. If he had a daughter, he’d be livid if she married a guy after knowing him for only a few hours. He’d be worried like Maggie’s father that he’d married her for other than honorable reasons.

“Sir, I can assure you I’m not after your money. Your daughter is special. She’s a beautiful woman who deserves to love whomever she wants. But she also deserves someone who respects her and treats her right. I can promise you, I would never hurt your daughter. I only want to protect her. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I’m going with my wife.” He pushed past Mr. Neal and joined Maggie at the elevator just as the bell rang and the doors slid open. He’d just promised Maggie’s father he’d protect her. Hell, he’d already promised himself that he would. Now, he had to live up to that promise.

As he stepped into the elevator, he heard a shout from the hallway. “Hey, wait up.”

When the doors started to close, Chase pushed the button to keep them open long enough for Trevor to slide through. Then he turned and held the doors for Carson.

Trevor let go of the door and grinned. “We thought you might need backup getting to the airport.”

Carson grimaced as he punched the button for the ground level. “I feel kind of sorry for the ladies we left with Maggie’s father.”

“Me, too,” Maggie said. “He’ll be grilling Gina about now.” Her lips curled upward at the corners. “She’ll give him hell. She loves pushing all of his buttons.”

“I love when she pushes all of mine,” Carson said. “That’s one sassy female.” He clapped his hands together. “Just the way I like them.”

Maggie frowned. “Don’t you hurt my friend.”

Carson held up his hands. “I wouldn’t dare. Besides, she scares me.” He chuckled. “I haven’t felt this alive since I came down to Cabo San Lucas. I didn’t realize how much I missed all the action and danger associated with being a Navy SEAL.” He turned to Chase. “I don’t suppose your boss in Montana could use another SEAL on his team, could he?”

“It doesn’t hurt to ask. All he could say is no.” Chase slipped an arm around Maggie’s waist and pulled her close.
