🎁🎁🎁TANNER🎁🎁🎁
As Xax and I walked out of the room, the fact that Jasamina hugged me surprised me since I hadn't been expecting any gesture like that from her. The girl has always been afraid of any physical contact.
"A penny for your thought?" Xax asked, drawing me back to the present as we entered the living room.
"Nothing." I replied gruffly.
"We have to talk. " Xazix said as quietly as he could manage nudging his head into the direction of the nearby chair.
I had an idea what he wanted to talk about but I said nothing as I walked side by side with him to the sitting room. We settled down on two different couches facing each other.
He was silent as was I as we waited for the first person to start the conversation.
"What happened Tan? "He started.

The events of yesterday filled my mind.I smiled as I stared at Jaimie. He had woken me up twice in the middle of the night to breastfeed and change his diapers. After cutting my sleep short, here the little man is...sleeping like there's no tomorrow.I kissed his rosy plump cheek and rose from the bed. I flushed at a remembered event. I can't believe I actually hugged Tanner, last night.I'm more surprise that I didn't freak out while doing it, especially when his arms wrapped around my back. I felt safe. At home.I've gotten pretty used to him. Even Jaimie.I imagined hugging another man...even his brother....and shuddered at the thought. Men scare the devil out of me. And with good reasons too.

I whistled as I took off my clothes, ready to use the shower. Another call came in. I scared at him and recognised the number.I placed the call to my ear. "Rutherford speaking.""Xazix?"I recognized the voice instantly. "Mark!?"It's me, man! Longest time!" His voice cake through, making me smile. Mark was my best buddy back then when I was still a full-time bounty hunter. Mark hunts like crazy. He hasn't lost his touch and he still hunts."How have you been? I lost contact with you."

Xazix shook his head, the memory clear on his face.They must have been really close as brothers, I thought. I drew my eyes away from them to stare at Jaime again."And each time I make a mental note not to leave you in charge of the food anymore but because of your nagging and self confidence that you can do better the next time. I always end up leaving you to it." Tanner groaned."I end up burn

I just saw him and yet I miss him.I miss Tann. The old Tann. The jovial one that smiled all the damn time, especially when Suzy is within sight. Or Dannie. The fun Tanner that loved to cook and goof around.Suzy's death ate deep into him, he has been a shadow of himself ever since the incident; consoling himself with bottles of alcohol and drowning himself in the temporary somewhat "pleasure" intoxication brought unto him.

Someone's happy for momma!"He giggled again, making a grab for my hair. "Ouch!" I raised my hand and gently untangled my hair from his little hand."You'll yank off mother's hair." I admonished with a smile. Unbiddenly, my mind went back to the last time my hair was yanked off.Dale was thrusting into me from behind, being so rough! Oh, the way it had hurt! I was heavily pregnant with Jaimie....not that it mattered to Dale. He was so rough, and he kept

The silence of the house shows that Tanner was still sleeping.I took that time to arrange the house that has become home, and run a bath for myself. All the while, my mind feathered on Tanner.He has become a refuge to me. I never thought I'll ever be comfortable with another man, the way I am with him.Out of nowhere, I wondered what it would feel like to kiss him. The thought took me by surprise because it's a thought I've never had before. Not even before I married Dale and certainly, not during our marriage.I closed my eyes and put the thought at the back of my mind. Tanner is my friend, my savior and everything in between.
