“Speaking of which, have you seen Harrison?” I ask, sweeping my eyes over the faces on the beach.
“Not since he and Liv had words.”
“What about?”
“Not sure. She came out looking pissed and marched right over to him. They fought for a while, although I didn’t hear what about. She went to the beach, and he stormed off.”
“Huh. Will you excuse me for a minute?”
“Sure, man.”
After searching the back yard for the weasel, I walk around to the front of the house and notice his car is missing. I go inside and find Maria. “Will you be okay if I leave for a minute?”
“Yes, but where are you going?”
“I need to check on something.”
“Okay. Sure.”
I kiss the top of her head. Tori and I make eye contact.
“I’ll be right back, Tor. Take care of my girl.”
“What was that all about?” Tori asks.
“I’m not sure, but he seemed upset, huh?”
“It’s probably work related. His job is pretty intense.” I frown. “What’s wrong?”
“It’s nothing.”
“You’re worried about how your past might affect him at work?”
“Not might, it will eventually.”
“Try not to worry about it. Tug and Brady have the ultimate say at Gibson and Brady supports the two of you dating.”
Brady’s approval makes me smile.
“And how do you feel about it? It must be awkward.”
“Me? I’m happy for Tug.”
“I meant knowing Brady used to come into the club to see me. I swear nothing ever happened between us.”
She puts her hand on top of mine.
“I know. Brady told me about you, and I trust him.”
It must be nice to love someone without doubt. “He’s a great guy.”
“He is. They both are.”
Knowing this woman’s had sex with Tug is unsettling. I have a question I shouldn’t ask, but I also have to know the answer, so I’m going to anyway.
“Can I ask you something?”
“Sure.”
