Chapter Twenty

Stryker

Colter dragged me down to an exclusive club he was a member at. It was a swanky place with casual sitting areas, a nautical theme, and completely the opposite of what I envisioned when I pictured a member’s only establishment. It fit his laid back demeanor.

He watched me check the place out. “I’m not big on throwing my money around, but it’s nice to have a place to relax without people bothering you all the time. Ever since Beck and I landed on those stupid eligible bachelors lists years ago women have become aggressive.”

For once I didn’t mind being in one of these types of places. There had been occasions where I had to meet clients in private clubs, but this one wasn’t purposefully ostentatious. Despite my reticence to appear wealthy, I’d earned a very comfortable living. Maybe it was because I refused to spend lavishly, but either way, I’d amassed a very healthy bank balance.

Colter was the first rich person I’d met who seemed as averse to flashing his wealth as I was. It set me at ease and made asking for his help with Sabrina more palatable.

We’d both just started to look over the drink menus when Beckett Anderson strolled over. Tall and blond, with Hollywood looks, he’d gotten a lot of press over the years as a famous bachelor. With his appearance and money it was no wonder the tabloids were obsessed with following him around.

“There better be a damn good reason I left my sexy wife at home when our baby just laid down for her nap. Evie was giving me that look, and I found the leather cuffs laying out, ” Beck said as he sat down.

Colter gagged. “In that case I’m glad to drag you out of the house. I’d like to have a second kid before I have a second grandchild. Also, stop telling me about your sex life.”

Beckett leaned back and stretched his arms along the sofa. He smirked, and his eyes practically glowed with mischief. “I was being tame, but I imagine you are well aware of the kinds of stories I could tell since you also have a younger wife.”

I chuckled. It was clear Colter was uncomfortable, but it was too amusing not to join in myself. “There’s something we all have in common.” Images of taking Sabrina on my desk flashed in my mind.

Colter pointed his finger in my face. “Whatever thought you just had, save it. Fuck, I need new friends. Preferably ones who aren’t married to my sister or my daughter,” he grumbled to himself.

Beckett and I started laughing. Then it hit me. Not the part where Colt included me as a friend, which was surprising enough, but these men, virtual strangers, were my family. At least by marriage.

This time it was Colt that laughed. “You just figured out we’re all family, didn’t you?”

I nodded, honestly a bit stunned. “It’s been a long time since I’ve had anything close to family. As you no doubt can understand, Malcolm doesn’t count.
