Back at Royal Road, I went straight to the bar. Place was packed per usual, a good sign since the arena was still out of business. Our fights brought in the most profit. Without them, funds were tight.
I waited for Paisley to finish pouring drinks. I’d ask after Eve and then go give her the news about Hallow. Warn her, at least, then I’d be going home to my bed. To my Ol’ Lady.
But Opry appeared first, tipping his cowboy hat.
“How’s the honeymoon going?” He asked.
I laughed. “Brother, I need a drink.”
“Whiskey?”
“I wish.” Whiskey was life, but when life was messy, I liked a Kentucky Bourbon, neat.
Opry knew. He poured out half a glass of Eagle Rare.
“She wants to talk to you,” Opry said, his gaze directing me.
To my surprise, an unmistakable blonde graced the stage. Memphis was back.
I tapped the glass, asking for more.
Paisley finally got a moment for her Prez.
I asked her, “Where did Eve end up?”
“I told her she could rest in my room. If I were you, I’d let her sleep tonight. She needs rest. I can give her a message.” Paisley fished for the story.
“No, I’ll talk to her in the morning.”
Finishing my drink, I got up to go make things right with Sky. But turning, I bumped into two fake titties and their owner, Memphis.
She flipped her long platinum hair. “Can we talk a spell?”
“No.”
“You owe me, Kingpin. Big time.”
That was all she had to say. Memphis and Junebug weren’t only my guards but my confidants. Memphis knew secrets that if they were revealed would make my life real hard, real quick.
“Five minutes.”
I sat back down on the bar stool.
She crossed her arms, halfway. She couldn’t wrap them around her large breasts.
“In private,” she insisted.
I followed Memphis to my office, punched in the code, and sat behind my desk.
Memphis sat on the other side of the desk, raising a knee. Running a hand down her calves, she tried to show off her body.
“Do you know how bad I miss you?”
“It’s been two days.”
“No, Sky’s been here over a month. You’ve ignored Junebug and I that long. And then you go off and get married without even asking... telling us.”
“Where’s Junebug?”
