I hear the words he is saying and I get what he means. Maci is a lot of work. A lot more work than I normally have to be in for. But, I will be fuckin’ damned if I let her sink through my fingers.

He whistles in the back of his throat. “Well, I guess what I’m askin’ is are you gonna pursue this? She’s not like our normal girls who is gonna let you hit it and quit it. This is an ol’ lady kind of girl.”

“I’m pursuing it.”

He clucks his tongue. “Prez, you got it fuckin’ bad. What do you even know about her?”

That’s the question of the day. What do I even know about her? There is not one thing I know about Maci besides how beautiful she is and how I want to sink inside her. That’s all I know.

What I don’t know is why she’s so shifty on the phone and why she doesn’t have a past. Everyone has a past. She has to have something.

I rub the back of my neck and sprawl out in the chair. My boots are feeling heavier than normal. My body is begging for a release that only Maci can give me.

“I don’t know jack shit about her,” I answer honestly.

There is a little knock on the door and I see Maci’s cute face peering into the room. She is holding two coffee cups in her hands.

“Kaylie said you might want a cup of coffee?” Maci says quietly. Her eyes are dead set on Capone’s and I could kill him. I want her to be looking at me the way she’s looking at Capone. What the fresh fuck?

Did I push her too hard?
