“Getting you to take any kind of help. Jesus, it took you years to ask Savage and I for shit without feeling bad.”
I thought about what he said and then nodded. “Yeah, okay.” I served myself some pasta.
“So, getting back to these little Dukes you mentioned…”
“Forget I said anything.”
“Not likely. You mentioned kids.”
“Not really. I mean, I mentioned them in the generic sense. Not the actual sense. I’m not ready.”
“Ready for the actual kids or this conversation?”
“Duke,” I sighed. “Please.”
“Fine. I’ll let it go. For now. But just think of a little Duke with your hair and my dimples. Tell me that doesn’t do things to you.”
“It does nothing to me,” I lied.
“Okay.”
“Don’t sayokaylike that!”
“Like what?”
“Like you think I’m lying.”
“Youarelying.” He grinned. “I know your tells because Iknowyou. And you’re thinking about it.”
“Am not.”
“Are too.”
“You’re ridiculous,” I said, but I couldn’t stop the laugh.
“I am.”
I was about to take a bite when my phone rang. “Sorry,” I said around my fork.
“Like you have to apologize.”
“Right.” He was a biker and constantly getting calls. I looked at my phone. “It’s Savage.”
“Answer it,” he said.
“And say what?”
“Whatever you want.” His eyes bored into mine.
I pressed the answer button. “Hey.”
“Where are you?” he asked.
“I’m out to dinner with a client,” I lied, wincing when Duke’s jaw clenched.
“Damn, sorry. I wanted to see what you were up to.”
“Why? Are you bored?”
