“Here’s the deal,” she said. “I’ll blow you for twenty-five. You can fuck me for fifty, and you can fuck my ass for seventy-five.”

I shot my brow upward. She was a hooker? A fucking hooker?

I stood, my groin still tight. “Not exactly what I had in mind.”

She let out a raucous laugh. “Kidding, Bob. Just kidding. Do I look like a prostitute to you?”

She really didn’t want me to answer that honestly.

“You think any hooker worth her salt would let you into her apartment without seeing the money first? Oh, man. You should see the look on your face!”

“Uh…”

“And by the way, no one fucks my ass, so if that was your plan, you can go quietly.”

Hadn’t been my plan, but I remained standing. “I think I changed my mind, Heidi.”

“Bob, I was fucking with you. Can’t you take a joke?”

I was four-plus bourbons in with a hard-on for another woman. All I wanted was a fuck. This conversation hadn’t been part of the bargain.

But she stood, forwardly cupping the bulge in my jeans. “Sure you want to go?”

I wasn’t sure at all. The only thing I was damned sure of was that she was a poor substitute for Marjorie Steel.

But she was a substitute, and she was willing to let me fuck her.

I walked toward the bed. “Coming?”

Chapter Nine

Marjorie

“Talon!” I banged on the door of his bedroom. I could hear the whoosh of the shower. I turned the knob on the door and then banged again on the bathroom door. “Talon! I need you!”

The shower shut off, and Talon appeared at the door, a towel around his waist. “What is it?”

“Jade. She’s in pain in the kitchen. I’m scared.”

“Shit!” He grabbed his robe while I turned away. Then he followed me to the kitchen.

Jade was still doubled over.

“Baby? What’s wrong? Tell me.” Talon knelt beside her.

“I don’t know. It hurts.”

Talon scooped her into his arms. “We’re going to the hospital.”

That meant a trip to Grand Junction. Talon could get her there before an ambulance made it out to the ranch.

“I’m going too,” I said.

“You have to stay with the boys,” Talon said. “Call Jade’s doctor and have her meet us there.”

Right.

“Talon, the baby…” Jade sniffed back tears.
