“She shouldn’t even have said so much already. I think Freda is as excited as you seem, Mariana.”
Mariana blushed and Freda put on her coat.
“Margarete is correct. Escorts shouldn’t know whom they are escorting until the night of. However, in this case, you may need to brush up on your knowledge of Scottish artists.”
Mariana smiled. “A Scot, huh? Very interesting.”
“You’ll see. We’ll go over everything tomorrow.”
“Thank you, Freda. I’m nervous and excited.”
“You’ll be perfect, and after tomorrow night, I’m certain you will be giving up that courier job and serving at parties. You’re going to be quite busy.”
Freda waved good-bye as Alvin opened the door for her.
“Oh, Alvin, will you give Mariana a ride home?” Freda asked then left before Mariana could reject the offer. She was worried about her and where she resided. How could the poor young woman live in a place where people stole so blatantly? She sighed in annoyance.
“Are you okay, Freda?” Alvin asked as he opened the door to the limo with Benny standing there.
“Just worried about Mariana. I want you to give me an update on her living arrangements tomorrow, okay?”
“Yes, of course.”
Freda stepped into the backseat as Alvin leaned down to speak with her. They locked gazes and she knew he had something on his mind. He was a great man and he always kept her safe.

She smiled.
“Not a project. She’s special and I have two specific men in mind that need a woman like her in their lives.”

“Since when did you become a matchmaker?”
She folded her hands on her lap and stared up into Alvin’s big blue eyes.
“Since I witnessed their first meeting and saw the immediate attraction between her and these two men.”
“And how do the two men feel about this?”
“They haven’t a clue nor does Mariana. You’ll see, Alvin. These three are meant to be together. They just need to get through some of the walls they’ve built up over the years. I love a challenge,” she said, and he smiled.
“Yes you do, Freda. Good night.”
He closed the door, and Freda left for home with Benny driving. She thought about Mariana and how lovely of a woman she truly was. Now, she needed to find out about Mariana and what type of past she was hiding.
Chapter 5
Jax was on the phone with Spider. He was a fellow Marine and now worked for their company as a main investigator whenever Jax or Jameson needed him. Aside from that he was the director of operations for their security firm, X-Caliber.
He was trying to process all the information as he spoke with Spider and looked over the e-mail and documents he forwarded to Jax.
“Son of a bitch. This is a lot to digest,” Jax stated.
“It’s a lot to have found out about in a matter of days. But it’s important to see the signs that this asshole wants to fuck with you.”
