“Thank you for being an exemplary employee. I wish you much success at your new job.”

  “Thank you, Sir.”

  “Kaylee, you’ll always have a job here if you change your mind.”

  “I appreciate that but I know I’ve made the right decision.”

  Kaylee took one more look at Declan and then walked out. She wanted so badly to just tell him that she was leaving because it hurt too much to see him every day and knew she would never be good enough for him. When he apologized for kissing her, it broke her heart. She knew then that she needed to move on and forget about Declan King.

  “Lucy, hurry up we’re going to be late.”

  Lucy opened up the bathroom door and when Ace saw her walk down the hallway his heart skipped a beat. She looked like a princess. Her dress was sage green silk and it just hugged her body so perfectly.

  “You look so incredibly beautiful.”

  “Thank you. Now let’s go.”

  Lucy grabbed her purse and her wrap and they were off.

  Chace woke up to a blow job. He thought at first he was having a really great dream until he opened his eyes and sure enough his cock was being sucked by a very sexy blonde. Instantly, thoughts of last night flooded his head, drinks, sex, more drinks, more sex and Declan and him sharing a girl. Damn what the hell was wrong with him? This wasn’t college anymore. He needed to get a grip.

  “Hey, umm, hey.”

  The girl just looked up and smiled while she continued to suck his cock. Chace decided now definitely was not the time to get a grip, maybe later. He grabbed a hold of that long blonde hair and pulled it and pushed his cock deep down her throat over and over until he came.

  “Good morning.”

  “I think it’s my turn. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day.”

  Chace leaned down and dragged her up his body and sat her on his face. The minute he plunged his tongue inside her she shrieked and moments later he heard footsteps. He looked to the side and he had two more girls standing there in the room with him. One walked over and started to kiss the girl he was teasing with his tongue. The other chose to grab hold of Chace’s cock and play with it until it was hard as a rock again, then she climbed on and started riding him. It was like a scene from a porn movie and he didn’t want it to end. He had his face in one pussy, his hand in another and his cock was balls deep in a third one. Everything would have been perfect except his phone wouldn’t stop ringing. He knew by the ring tone it was the police station. Finally after the fifth time he knew it was urgent and he had to man up and answer that phone.

  “Sorry, girls but I have to answer the phone.”

  “Oh Baby, no.”

  “Oh Baby, yes. Now both you girls dismount ok.”

  The other girl grabbed Chace’s phone and handed it to him. He hit last call and dialed it back.

  “Chace, where the fuck have you been?”

  “Shower, what’s going on, Kyle?”

  “Two more women were found. Get your ass down to the station.”

  “I’ll be right there.”

  “Girls, I’ll make it up to you, I have to go, duty calls.”

  Chace headed to the shower. The girls watched sadly as he got up and left them.

  Ace stood in the church watching Lucy as she walked down the aisle. He wanted so badly to just grab her and tell her how much he loved her and ask her to marry him, right then and there. He knew he couldn’t but in just a few hours he would be proposing. His stomach felt as if he had swallowed dozens of butterflies.

  “Son, are you alright?”

  Ace looked up and Lucy’s dad was staring at him.

  “Yes, Chief.”

  “If you look like this now, I can’t imagine what you will look like at your own wedding.”

  “I love her so much.”

  “Can’t say I blame you, she is one smart, beautiful woman.”

  Lucy’s mother grabbed their arms.

  “Todd, Ace, you need to hush up. You can talk later after the ceremony.”

  “I’m sorry, Sandy.”

  Lucy’s mother smiled at Ace. She loved him and was thrilled he was planning to ask Lucy to marry him.

  Shane spent the morning working out. Buddy brought in a new guy for Shane to spar with. Shane wasn’t quite sure he liked him. Andy never made eye contact with Shane and he tried to kiss up to Buddy. Shane felt as if Andy wanted to steal Buddy away from him. He also had the feeling Andy didn’t like him much.

  “Shane, show Andy here what you are made of.”

  Shane nodded to Andy and the two of them went at it.

  “Hartless, is that the best you got?”

  Now Shane was pissed, he was trying to give this kid a break but not now, now this kid was going to get a run for the money. Shane swung and knocked Andy on his ass.

  “How’s that feel?”

  Andy looked up at Shane and smirked. Then he stood up swinging. It wasn’t long before they were rolling around on the floor. Shane had Andy pinned between his legs.

  “Shane, go easy on the kid.”

  Shane looked up when Buddy yelled out and Andy took advantage of that and punched Shane in the face. Shane wanted to give Andy a beating but instead he released his hold, stood up and and climbed out of the cage.

  “I’m done, Buddy.”

  Shane was pissed. Andy sat there smiling. Buddy however, stood there staring as Shane walked away.

  Chace arrived at the station to find Chloe there talking to Kyle. That woman drove him crazy and crazy wasn’t what he needed after a long night of drinking and wild sex.

  “Damn, you look like shit.”

  “Rough night sleep.”

  Chloe looked up at Chace and then shook her head.

  “Looks more like a rough night of partying.”

  “Or rough sex.” Kyle laughed.

  Chace was annoyed now. “If you really want to know, yes I was partying and yes, there was rough sex, in fact when you called me, Kyle, I was with three lucky ladies.”

  “Real lucky.” Chloe rolled her eyes.

  “Don’t knock it, until you try it.”

  “Try it? If you were the last man on earth, I would become a lesbian.”

  Chloe grabbed her briefcase and walked out. Kyle couldn’t help laughing while Chace stood there with his mouth gaping open.

  The ceremony was over and Lucy and Ace had arrived at the reception. Ace’s nerves were shot. As each minute passed it got closer to their boat ride where he would ask her to marry him.

  “Ace, are you feeling alright?”

  “I’m fine, Sweetheart. Would you like to dance?”

  “As long as you promise to hold me tight in those big, strong arms of yours.”

  “I promise.”

  Ace took Lucy by the hand and led her to the dance floor. He pulled her close in his arms and she rested her cheek on his chest.

  “I love you, Ace.”

  “I love you too.”

  Ace held Lucy in his arms for the next three dances. It wasn’t until Lucy’s father cut in that Ace stepped back. He watched as her father twirled her around on the dance floor for a few minutes until he decided it was a good time to run off to call Declan for a pep talk to calm his nerves. He found a room off of the main lobby that was quiet and he walked in and reached for his phone.

  “Hi there.”

  Ace looked up and Lucy’s friend Janey was standing in the doorway. She walked into the room and then turned and closed the door. Ace jumped up, he wasn’t sure what she wanted but he knew being in a room with a closed door could get him in trouble with Lucy and he wasn’t taking any chances.

  “Hi.”

  “I see Lucy hired you to be her date.”

  “I love Lucy, that’s why I’m here.”

  “Oh please! Guys like you don’t settle down with one woman unless they are paying you enough.”

  Ace felt angry and hurt. He walked towards the door. As he reached for the door knob Janey grabbed his cock and when he turned his head she
kissed him. He pushed her off of him.

  “I told you, I love Lucy and what kind of friend are you anyway?”

  “What if I told you, I would give you triple what she’s paying you?”

  “I know you will find this hard to believe but I am a wealthy man, Lucy lives with me and I support her. It isn’t about money, we love each other. Now, I’m going to find Lucy and dance with her.”

  Ace pulled the door open and walked out. Janey mumbled under her breath, “Nobody turns me down. You’ll be sorry.”

  Declan caught a glimpse of Shane as he stomped across the Casino Room floor. He headed towards him to see what was going on with him.

  “Shane!”

  Shane stopped and turned around. After seeing Shane’s swollen lip he was almost afraid to ask what had happened. Shane loved to fight but losing wasn’t an option, not even back in their wrestling days.

  “I’m in no mood to talk, Dec.”

  “Ok, now talk?”

  “You’re a dick.”

  “Talk, Shane.”

  “Buddy hired a new kid to train with me…”

  “Ahh, and he gave you a run for your money, huh?”

  “No, he’s a damn suck up and he sucker punched me when Buddy yelled for me to take it easy and I looked up.”

  “So are you upset because he’s a good fighter or because you’re jealous he is trying to suck up to Buddy?”

  “Neither. I’m a better fighter and Buddy is MY trainer.”

  “Maybe you need to talk to Buddy about this?”

  “No, I’ll just show this kid what I’m made of and not go easy on him. He won’t be able to keep up. He will be crawling out of here within the week. So why do you look so pissed?”

  “Kaylee resigned this morning.”

  “Shit, why?”

  “She said she had been thinking about it but she also eluded to the fact that she was still upset about me kissing her.”

  “When did that happen?”

  Declan looked down at the floor. He prided himself on being a professional, never mixing business with pleasure, well almost never, well maybe only with Jenna because she felt the same way and it was purely just sex. He was so angry with himself about what happened with Kaylee and the fact that it made her resign.

  “I told you.”

  Shane grabbed Declan’s arm.

  “Umm…no, I don’t recall you telling me.”

  “It happened the night of your fight.”

  “So you only kissed her and she is this upset or is there more to this story?”

  “I picked her up and hugged her when you won your fight. Then, I don’t know what happened but next thing I knew I was kissing her. As soon as she stiffened up, I put her down and apologized. She had been avoiding me but I just figured in time we’d be ok again.”

  “Hey, do you have feelings for her?”

  “No. I was just excited and she was there.”

  Declan thought for a moment, could he have feelings for her and that was why he was so upset with himself? No, he didn’t have feeling for Kaylee. Definitely, not.

  “Ok, if you say so.”

  “Say so? You don’t think I know so?”

  “Fine, you know so. Look, I have a meeting with my publicist about my fight next month. I have to get going.”

  “Vegas, can’t wait.”

  “Happy you and the guys are going to come with me. We’re going to have a blast.”

  “Shane, we haven’t missed a fight yet. Well until your last one and I watched from my office.”

  “Yeah, I missed you there.”

  “I know. I promise it will never happen again.”

  Declan grabbed Shane and hugged him. Shane pulled away and Declan smacked his ass as he headed back towards the door.

  THE DAY WAS COMING to an end. The wedding was almost over, the bride had tossed her bouquet and now the groom was about to toss the garter. Lucy was nudging Ace to get out there with the other single men.

  “Go on, get up there.”

  “But Lucy, you didn’t catch the bouquet. I don’t want to…”

  “Get out there, Son.”

  Lucy’s father had walked over and given Ace a push. Ace stood amongst the other men and although he didn’t try to catch the garter it landed on his shoulder.

  The DJ called out, “Ok, let’s get that lucky man over here to place the garter on this lovely lady’s leg.”

  Lucy and her parents stood there chuckling as Ace made his way across the dance floor. He knelt next to the woman who was smiling and looking at him like he was a piece of meat. The DJ keyed up the music and Ace knew that was his cue to slide the garter up the woman’s leg.

  “I remember you from the bachelorette party, I know you’re not shy.”

  Ace hoped nobody else heard that remark. He decided best he just slide the damn thing on and distance himself from her as quickly as possible. He took the garter and placed it around her ankle. As he began to slide it up the DJ yelled out, “No hands, you have to use your teeth.”

  Ace looked at Lucy and she was laughing as she thought the whole thing was funny to watch him squirm.

  “Ok, if that’s what you want.”

  Ace leaned down, grabbed hold of the garter with his teeth and dragged it up the woman’s leg. She grabbed hold of his hair. Ace pulled away and gave her a snide look as he stood up and walked back over to Lucy.

  “You did good, Sweetie.”

  “I need to use the bathroom, I’ll be right back, Lucy.”

  Ace gave Lucy a quick kiss on the cheek and continued on to the bathroom. Lucy and her parents started to walk back to their table when Lucy’s so-called friend, Janey, tapped her on the shoulder. Lucy turned around and smiled.

  “Janey, hi.”

  “So tell me Lucy, didn’t you think any of us would recognize your stripper friend or did you think we wouldn’t because he was wearing clothes? Tell me, was a wedding date part of the package when you booked the bachelorette party or did he cost extra?”

  Lucy’s stomach knotted. She never imagined a friend of hers would throw Ace’s being a stripper in her face, especially not in front of her parents; who were now standing there staring at Lucy in disbelief.

  “Janey, what the hell is wrong with you?”

  “Nothing’s wrong. I am clearly stating the facts.”

  “You call that stating the facts?”

  “Yes, poor boring school teacher Lucy can’t find a hot date, so she pays a low life stripper.”

  Lucy smacked Janey across the face. Janey grabbed Lucy by the hair. The music stopped and at that point everyone was rushing over to watch the fight. Lucy’s mother was pulling Lucy up from the floor when Ace came running over.

  “Lucy!”

  Ace grabbed Lucy and pulled her into his arms. Lucy burst into tears. Janey smiled from the floor.

  “Hey, Baby, what happened?”

  “Aww, is little loser Lucy crying now.”

  The bride, Mary, who was Lucy’s cousin had come over with her husband.

  “Lucy, Janey, what the hell?”

  “I’m going to take Lucy home now.”

  Ace walked Lucy over to the table and grabbed her purse. He made it about two steps before Lucy’s father grabbed him by the shoulder.

  “We need to talk.”

  “Chief, can it wait? I need to take care of Lucy.”

  Ace looked up and Lucy’s father gave him a look of disappointment and anger. Ace immediately knew what transpired while he was in the bathroom. He always enjoyed stripping and entertaining the women and even men sometimes, it made him feel important, he loved the attention. Now though, he felt ashamed. His heart was breaking as Lucy cried in his arms, knowing it was all his doing.

  “Lucy, stay with your mother. Ace and I need to talk.”

  Lucy looked up at her father with tears in her eyes.

  “There isn’t anything to talk about, Daddy. I love Ace.”

  “I thought I did too. But I don’t think any paid esc
ort, stripper or whatever filth Ace is involved in, is the person I want my daughter to spend the rest of her life with or even worse raise children with.”

  Lucy’s mother reached out her hand to Lucy’s father.

  “Todd, don’t you think that you owe it to Ace to explain or at least hear his side of the story?”

  Ace kissed Lucy on the forehead and stepped back. He knew how important Lucy’s family was to her and how much she meant to them. He wasn’t willing to come between them.

  “I’m quite sure my story won’t differ much from what you’ve heard. I will put in for a transfer out of your house first thing in the morning. Lucy, I love you more than I’d ever thought I was capable of loving anyone and I want so much to be selfish right now and beg you to come with me but I can’t. Not without your parent’s blessing.”

  “Ace, no…”

  “I’m so sorry Lucy, I knew I was out of your league. I should have stayed away. Now all I’ve done is hurt you. Goodbye, Lucy.”

  Ace turned around and with a single tear rolling down his cheek he walked out. Lucy stood there numb. Her father tried to pull her into his arms but Lucy pulled away. Mary grabbed her and held her in her arms while she cried.

  Shane was a nervous wreck about his date with Luke. He spent the last hour changing his underwear three times and then he had worked himself into a literal sweat so he undressed, showered and started over again. He zipped up his pants, looked in the mirror and headed outside to wait for Luke to pick him up. No sooner did he walk out the door then did Luke pull into the driveway. Shane headed to the car. Luke opened the door and got out and walked over to Shane.

  “Hey, Luke.”

  Luke leaned over and gave Shane a kiss on the lips. Then he took his hand and walked him over to the car and opened his door.

  “I couldn’t stop thinking about you all day, truthfully since yesterday when I saw you in your swim shorts.”

  “Had I known they left such a lasting impression, I would have worn them tonight.” Shane laughed.

  “Thank you for giving me another chance.”

  “I almost said no.”

  “You won’t regret saying yes, I promise.”
