Mike (Henderson Security Book 1)
Page 23
“Fuck, you’re a horn dog.” I laughed.
“Like you’re any better. How many did you have last month at the same time… three, four? I could hear their screams from my room,” proclaimed Dozer, laughing.
“Well, gotta keep in shape, and not only is it a great way to do it, but it’s more fun.” I winked at him and then sighed. “I’m sick of it, though, Doze. It’s not holding the appeal anymore. I want to settle down and have kids, you know? Fuck. I wish she were here,” I muttered.
“I know what you mean. Why don’t you find her and see how she is?” he suggested.
“What if she’s happy and married with kids, Doze? I couldn’t do that to her.”
“What if she’s not? You’ll never know if you don’t look.”
“Yeah, true. Maybe I’ll look her up. If I see her happy with someone else, it’ll break me all over again. I mean, I’ll be happy if she’s happy, but he will have what I want, and I don’t know if I can do that to myself. You know what I mean?”
“Yeah, I do. You’re damned if you do and damned if you don’t,” Dozer replied.
I nodded.
Kid said his goodbyes and hung up, ending the call, and then looked at me with his usual smile.
“He put me onto a guy named Mike, who said to come on over. They can see us now, but we have to go to them because they’re currently training new recruits which they can’t get out of. Or we can wait and make an appointment for another day.”
“Well, there’s no time like the present. What do you say, boys? Who wants to ride and see what the professionals are like?” I asked, smirking.
All thirty guys stood up, and I chuckled. “Right, let’s ride.”

Australian author MLJ Quigg – lives in NSW, Australia, with her husband, three adult children, and six cats—yes, you heard that right, six.
Growing up in a huge family of eight kids was always noisy and didn’t give her enough alone time to unwind.
Books have always given her an outlet from the craziness that is her life. Nothing is better than curling up with a good story to take her mind off her surroundings.
As a new author, she hopes you enjoy her stories and helps you get out of your world and into hers for a few hours.
