Chapter fourteen
Tank walked into Ranger's office and noticed him looking out the window. Looking out the window over his shoulder he could see what Ranger was watching. A beautiful, curly headed brunette.
"Ranger!" Knowing Ranger would not want to hear what he had to tell him.
"Yeah."
"Bobby called. Morgan has surfaced."
Ranger cussed and turned to glare at Tank before turning back to the window. He watched Steph walking on the beach knowing that soon he would have to break the news to her. He would be leaving. He didn't want to leave her, not now, not ever.
He sighed and then turned back to Tank.
"Where?"
"Vegas."
"Tell Bobby to get the team together. We'll meet him there. Book us seats on the red eye tonight."
"What about Bombshell?"
"I'll tell her at dinner tonight."
"Your daughter will be here in the morning."
"I'll call Maria and let her know what's going on. Victoria will be fine here with Steph."
"Yeah but will Steph be okay here with Victoria?."
He looked at Tank. "She's fine with her nieces." He knew he was skirting what Tank was getting at.
Tank was grinning. He was finely going to have the two woman he loved in one place and he wasn't going to be here.
"They'll be fine." He smiled. He wondered what kind of trouble they would get into together. He would remind the men to be extra cautious, he didn't want either of them trying to sneak off and follow him. He wouldn't put it past either of them and together, no telling what they might come up with.
"Are you still planning on taking Bombshell out on the boat for dinner?"
"Yeah." He smiled. "Tonight she's going to say yes, I hope." And Tank thought he looked a little green around the edges.
"Man you got it bad."
"Yeah, and I hope never to get over it."
Tank shook his head. "Buddy at least you know what you're getting into. The
woman is beyond high maintenance, and she draws trouble and crazies like a magnet."
"Tank, I love her."
"What about that scary hair?."
"I love the feel of her curls on my skin and wrapping them around my finger."
"Like I said man, you got it bad."
Tank left the room shaking his head. He agreed Steph was beautiful, him and all the guys were crazy for her, yeah she attracted men as well as crazies. That was one reason she was so good at distraction jobs. It was her spirit, it shined from her like a beacon.
