Adelina

Graff and Rafe are coming home soon , I told myself. Repeatedly. Still, I paced back and forth, cutting across the rug in my suite in the Parisi Hotel he didn’t show kindness.

My husband was a hardened man, and that aspect of him did things to me that I shouldn’t mention aloud to anyone. He called out the childish side of me, the brat who wanted everything her way, and then he tamed her with his rough touch.

Was it possible, though, that there was something softer in him I was missing?

With a curt nod, she said, “Among all the other calls I’ve gotta make, I’ll get you an appointment. Then, I’m hitting the books for the state bar exam.”

She rolled her eyes, and I scowled, not following.

Melanie stopped, seeing my confusion. “Since they denied his bail and keep throwing blockers, I’m going to need my license in Nevada.”

I slouched “ More red tape?”

“Yeah.” She gave me a small smile. “But you sit back and be a good little wife in the law’s eyes and see if you can ferret out some info from that husband of yours. I’ll give you a call as soon as I have the time for you to see him.”
