Shelby"Thanks for meeting me," Kels says as I slide in, holding my coffee."You didn't have to ask me twice. I love the cinnamon rolls here."A Whole Latte Love has become one of our favorite places to meet. "Me too." She takes a drink of her frappé. "I asked to have mine heated up."I giggle. "Yes, that's why I didn't bring it to the table with me.""It was good seeing you at girls night out."This isn't why she's invited me here. I've known her long enough to know she's beating around the bush. One thing I've learned is to let people come to me. In their own time, they'll tell you what they want. "I can see why our cinnamon rolls are taking a few minutes," Kelsea grins, nodding her head toward the cash register. Trying not to be obvious, I slowly turn. "Oh my God," I hiss as I see Devante and Eden talking to one another. They're obviously flirting, if I'm going by the grin on her face and the way he's leaning up against the counter. "Get you some," Kelsea

Sullivan"Are you sure there's nothing I can bring?" Shelby asks me for the third time.Reaching over, I grab hold of her hand, before bringing it up to my lips. "I'm positive. I asked Mason like you wanted me to, and he said to bring ourselves.""Just checking.""You've checked plenty of times, babe. There's no reason for you to worry about this. You know all of these people."She rolls her eyes. "I do, but I know them in an LSERT capacity. Not in a friendly capacity.""Oh, I think you and the girls are very friendly. Especially if you ask Hector," I laugh, avoiding her hand as she tries to smack me."You know what I mean.""No, I don't. Everyone knows you, Shelby.""But they don't me like this.""Like what, babe? You've got to spell this out for me, because I ain't getting it.""As your girlfriend. We're a couple now. Not just Shelby or Sullivan. Now we're kind of Shelby and Sullivan. Shelivan if you will. We've made the jump," she says like I should know."We

ShelbyIt's a quiet day and I'm slightly thinking about leaving early, especially after the day and night I had. Not even the joy of letting Montana know about her good fortune has been enough to soothe my soul about Mrs. Haley.It's a beautiful afternoon, and I'd love to go for a walk. Reaching over for my phone, I debate on who I can ask to go with me. Scrolling through, I stop at Rowan's name. The two of us haven't done much on our own, and if I can see myself being in Sullivan's life, I need to be in hers too.S: Are you busy this afternoon? I'm thinking of taking a walk. R: Ohhh sounds good, what time? I get off at three. Want me to meet you at your office? I have workout clothes I can change into here.S: Me too, I'll see you then.Putting my phone over to the side with a smile on my face, I'm excited to be spending some more time with her. She's the most important person in Sullivan's life, and I know if I want to be in his, I need to be in hers. Sighing, I take

Shelby"Frank was notified yesterday by certified mail."Montana gapes, her mouth wide open. "She gave all this money to me?""She did." I nod, watching as she looks at the will I wrote for Mrs. Haley. "She knew what kind of a situation you were in. It was her last wish for you to have this and to get away from him."Tears trail down her cheeks. "She knew. This whole time?""From what I understand she did.""He's going to be pissed." Her hands shake as she wipes at the tears. "Not only at me, but at you too.""I can handle him." I shuffle around in my bag. "Here's your first check from the estate. I know you get out of the hospital in a couple of days. If you would like me to deposit this for you into an account we set up for you, I can do that. Then you can start trying to find a new place to live.""How will I move there? I can't lift anything." She's still in shock, looking at me with amazement in her eyes."You let me take care of that. There are plenty of people

Sullivan"Domestic dispute at The Café," dispatch advises, causing me to do a double-take when I hear the location."The Café?" I verify."Yes. Caller states two patrons are having a disagreement."I can hear Leigh screaming on the call. "It's Montana and Frank Gentry. He's cornered her here."Son of a bitch. "I'll be right there."I'm driving a Charger today instead of my customary SUV. As it responds to the way my foot presses the gas, I kind of hope they let me have it for the long haul. Even though I started out halfway across the county, I'm in front of The Café within minutes. There's a crowd, and I can see Frank standing very close to his wife."Frank, back away, or I'm going to have to take you in. You're aware there's an order of protection against you."I don't mention how it'd be my pleasure. I'm still fucking pissed at the way he treated the woman in my life. "Go ahead and take me in," he screams at me. "Ya know what? Turn around, put your hands beh

Shelby"I hadn't quite thought how I would feel to be up for auction when this idea was presented." I pull at the hem of the dress I'm wearing.In front of me Sullivan wears a suit, along with a smirk. A fucking smirk. He looks way too good in the white dress shirt, and dark blue blazer. It sets off the color of his eyes, and the perpetual tan he seems to have. "You look damn good." His gaze eats me up."So do you." I grab hold of the lapels of his jacket, tugging him into me. "Wish I had enough money to spend on you. I'm sure you're gonna go for a ton."I giggle, tilting my head toward him, as he reminds me. "That would be beside the point. Instead of raising money, we'll be spending it."He slides his hand down my back, cupping my ass with his palm. I grin up at him, loving when a smirk spreads across his face. White teeth flash against his skin. "I'd give everything I had for you.""Sullivan Baker, you're too sweet."He dips down, putting his lips to my neck. "Only

Sullivan"Are you okay over there?" I ask Shelby as we head south on the interstate. She hasn't said much since we left."I am." She turns to me, and although I can't see her eyes behind the cloth covering them, I can tell she's sort of irritated I'm keeping her in the dark. "Slightly bored," she huffs. "Thinking about doing something to entertain myself.""Oh yeah?" I shift gears, getting up to speed to go with the flow of traffic. "What are you planning on doing?""I guess I could show you."The glow from the street lights allow me to see as Shelby sneaks her hand up in between her thighs."Oh, Counselor," I groan, putting the car on cruise control. "You horny?""For you? Always, but I would love to point out that you were up on that stage lookin' all hot.""You should've seen yourself, and fun fact, I have a fantasy about you wearing a skirt and letting me fuck you."She breathes heavily through her nose. "A fantasy?""Yeah, one I'm going to make come true when w

SullivanA Week Later"Are you sure there's no one else you want to take with you?" I ask my sister before I practically inhale a drink of the coffee we stopped and picked up. "I'm not sure I'm the person you want to help pick out a wedding dress."She looks over at me from the driver's seat, a grin on her face. "No one helped me the first time around, and this time, I feel like it's important. You're my best friend.""But I'm not a girl.""You don't have to be a girl," she argues. "You more than anyone, know me. You understand what I like and you've been there for me since the beginning.""But shouldn't you bring Mom or something?""If you didn't want to go, you could have said no," she reminds me."I know." I take another drink. "I do want to go, but I have to be sure you want me here."I invited you!""Okay, okay. I'll stop being so self-conscious about it.""Please do, I'm supposed to be the nervous one."I give her that, especially after the first marriage
