Think about that and meet me tonight at our special place
after your shift. -Luke
Along with the note is a picture of Zander and I getting married, but not the picture that’s splashed across the tabloids. It was taken by someone that was in the room with us because the angle is from the back corner of the room. Goosebumps break across my body as a shiver rattles up my spine.
I place my head in my hands and faintly hear Ashlyn talking on the phone to who I assume is either Zander or Josh. She runs out to the bar making sure Emily can handle the rest of my shift by herself which she agrees to before heading back to me. Doing a squat in front of me she grabs my hands in her own.
“Savvy, Luke seriously has a problem. I called the boys and they’re on their way here right now. I told them to come in through the back door so nobody will see them in here.”
I pull her into a hug as we wait for the guys to arrive. Not even five minutes later there is a loud knock at the back door. I get up to let them in seeing as Ashlyn is trying to finish her shift. The kitchen is too busy for her to leave work before her replacement comes in. Once I get the door open I am engulfed in Zander’s arms as he squeezes me tight.
“Where’s the note Savvy?”
I walk him over to the countertop in the back where I left the envelope and hand it to him. He practically rips the envelope in half as he takes the contents out. The air in the room changes as he reads the letter, then looks at the picture
“Baby, where was your special place?” he speaks through gritted teeth which shows that he barely has a hold on his anger.
“Honestly, I didn’t even know we had a special place. If I had to guess, I bet he’s talking about the park over on Arch Street. We went there a couple of times early on when we were dating but I wouldn’t call it our special place,” I shrug my shoulders, that’s the best place I can think of. “Wait why do you want to know?”
“Because when that fuckwad is waiting for you to show up for whatever the hell he has planned, he is going to get a surprise visit from me.”
Rolling his neck back and forth while clenching his fists I know if I let him go he’ll end up in jail. This is not good, if he goes and meets Luke with all of this anger at the surface he’ll freaking kill him!
“Babe I don’t think this is a good idea. I just won’t go, he’ll figure out I’m not interested if I don’t show up.”
“Non-negotiable baby,” he walks up to me and pulls me into his arms. “You are my responsibility now wife, I will do whatever it takes to keep you safe. If intimidating an asshole ex is what I need to do for him to leave you alone, well then that’s what I’ll have to do.” I hide my head in his chest nodding in agreement. Maybe he can intimidate him without an altercation, Luke always seemed to cower when it came to confrontation.
“Okay, just promise me you’ll be safe.”
He bends down and kisses my lips. “Always. You should be getting off in an hour. I’m going to head over there now because I’m sure he is waiting. I’d rather catch him off guard.”
I’m relieved Zander decides to bring Jayden and Josh with him incase Luke has something planned and he might need back up. He orders Kyle to stay with us as our watch dog until he’s done.
CHAPTER 19
Zander
Who the fuck does this guy think he is? No way in hell would I let him near my wife. The fact that he thinks he can go behind my back and stalk her… nope, that doesn’t work for me. Just thinking about him lurking in the shadows, possibly even following the girls to work has me seeing red. I saw the look on Savvy’s face when she opened the door at the bar, and I will do whatever I have to keep that scared look off of her face. After this little “meeting” I need to call a friend that lives in Vegas and have him pull up the footage from our wedding. That picture was definitely taken by someone in the room when we got married and I know it wasn’t my brothers. I don’t remember seeing anybody there, but I was shit faced so who knows. The fact that this asshole got his hands on that picture doesn’t sit well with me.
After the girls told me earlier about the problems he caused the night of my fight I called my friend to look into him. I found out that he lives in a tiny apartment ten minutes from my house, about fifteen from Savvy’s. Luke being so close is not reassuring to me in the least bit, if I had my way after tonight he’d move to fucking Siberia. An interesting bit of information I received was he got fired from his job about a week ago. I called the trucking company that he worked for saying I was an employer looking into his references and I got all the gritty details. They said he has been unstable lately, missing days without calling in, showing up late, leaving early, he even got into a few fights with his coworkers. They decided to let him go when they found him in the break room cornering a female employee up against the wall. His former boss said that he was overheard yelling at this woman, calling her some other woman’s name along with every other misogynist name in the book. Two guesses to what name he was calling the woman who was a dead ringer for Savvy by the way he described her. This guy is definitely unstable and I need to remember that when I approach him because desperate people are unpredictable.
We pull into the parking lot across the street from the park and I cut the engine. Luckily my truck is black, perfect for looking without being seen. Jay suggested we hang out for a bit in the truck to figure out what he is up to before we jump into this situation halfcocked.
I notice after some time passes that there is a guy walking back and forth between a spot on the playground and his car. I can’t see what he is carrying but luckily the spot he chose in the park has a light overhead. When he’s finished with carrying all of his shit we see him start to set up.
“Fuck me. He thinks he can lure my wife with a fucking romantic dinner on a merry go round? Who does he think he is, fucking Pee Wee Herman?”
“He clearly didn’t think this through bro. That shit moves in circles, he’s going to put everything on it and with one turn it will all be on the floor. Total rookie mistake,” Jay pulls out a bag of chips from under his seat, opens the bag and proceeds to eat like a fucking camel.
Josh and I stare at Jay in disbelief. “When the hell have you set up a romantic anything for a woman?”
“All the fucking time bro. Don’t you know that’s how to get the good ones into bed. You do some nice shit and they feel like they found the one. By the end of the night BOOM! Fuck city bro!”
I look down at my hands wondering how we even share DNA. If he wasn’t Josh’s twin I’d seriously question if he was adopted. He was probably dropped several times as a child, that’s the only explanation.
I look over to the playground again and begin to laugh. This asshole has a small table and chairs set up on the fucking merry go round. How the hell does it even fit with all of the bars? It even has a white table cloth and some flowers up on top. Seeing him walking around the area I can see what I’m going up against. He’s a decent sized guy looking just a little shorter than me and more on the skinny side. He definitely came out to impress tonight wearing a button-down shirt and tan pants. I decide this is my time to make a move seeing as Sav gets out of work in about ten minutes. I tell the guys to stay in the truck but they refuse. Getting them to at least agree to stay a good distance back I step out and shut the door. I continue to size him up while I walk my way towards him. Being sure to stay in the shadows as I approach, I know the element of surprise is going to work in my favor. No way does he think I’m the one joining him on his little date tonight.
Getting within fifteen feet the fucker finally hears me and whirls around facing me with a smile on his face and a rose in his hand. Clearly he thought his little stalker letter would persuade Sav to rush right down here.
“What the fuck are you doing here asshole?”
A giant sinister smile spreads on my face at the realization that I definitely caught him off guard. “Where should I begin? You see this douchebag decided to send my wife a fucking love letter l
ike we’re all in middle school. Even though she is a married woman now, this dick still thinks he has a shot with my girl. I am here to set him straight.” I stare him down but he doesn’t cower, changing his attitude and deciding to show no fear. Dude has a set of balls in those khakis.
“Leave Savvy the fuck alone asshole or you’ll be answering to me. She doesn’t want your notes, showing up at the bar or any other form of contact whatsoever. Grow the fuck up, realize she is done with your ass and move on. It would really save me some time and energy and you see, I really need my energy. I’m a newlywed and my bride is insatiable.” I can’t help but provoke him, it’s in my fighting nature. I’m trying to get him to slip up and lose his calm demeanor.
“THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT! YOU BRAINWASHED HER! We were so happy before you came to town and now she won’t give me the time of day. I know she loves me, I can see it in the way she looks at me. She was planning on coming tonight but you probably have her locked in a closet somewhere!” Bingo, now I have him where I want him although I definitely wasn’t prepared when he grabs a butter knife off of the table and lunges at me. Being trained in self-defense I expertly block him; does he realize he is going up against an experienced fighter? Idiot.
Side stepping him I grab his arm bending it at an awkward angle until he is crying out in pain and dropping the knife. I give him a little shove, not even a quarter of my strength, and he barrels face first into the grass. It’s almost comical how easy he is making this on me. I hope he stays down so that we can end this and move on with our lives.
Choosing the wrong option, he gets up and lunges for me. I easily put him in a head lock and bring my knee up into his ribs. Falling to the ground I think he’s had enough. Getting up once again, I let out a breath of frustration. Dude deserves props at his tenacity. I notice this time he has a rock in his hand he plans on using as a weapon. Blocking him once again I get a couple punches in on his face before he falls back into the grass appearing to be passed out. I’m barely breathing heavy as Josh and Jay flank me.
“Why didn’t he stay down? Dug his own grave each time he got back up. Although I have to say, dude must have a massive sack to come at you the way he did.”
“He came at me with a mother fucking butter knife! Total pussy move bro.”
I notice Luke squirming on the floor and nod my head at Josh to go and check on him. I may not like the dude but I don’t want to leave him here if he’s really hurt. He doesn’t get too close but looks him over before he looks back at me and nods that he is okay. This is my cue to finish the intimidation portion of this evening.
Stepping over him I bend down so he can look me in the eyes. “You stay the fuck away from my wife. If I even hear that you came within a ten-mile radius of her, what I just did will look like child’s play. You got me?”
“Just remember I had her first. When she is done with you I’ll be waiting with open arms. She will come back to me, make no mistake.”
“You just don’t know when to quit do you? I asked if you got my point, the correct answer would be yes, I will steer clear of Savannah from now on.” Landing one more punch on him I’m satisfied I got my point across when he is writhing on the floor holding his bloodied and most likely broken nose.
Now I get to go home to my wife and hopefully sink myself balls deep in her hot little pussy. My adrenaline is always through the roof after a fight. I love calling her my wife, who would have known I’d become one of those guys. The ones that can’t stop thinking about their girl, talking about them to their buddies, consumed with the thought of being with them. I can’t help it, I love that girl so hard. I would literally do anything for her, case and point the asshole on the ground.
Walking back to the truck we all get in as I start it up.
“Dude Savvy is going to kick your ass,” Josh always the observant one points out as if the thought hadn’t already crossed my mind.
“No shit bro, but in my defense, he came at me with a knife. I didn’t really want to use my fists to get my point across. He provoked me to defend myself resulting in a beat down.”
Jayden looks over at me, “Let me get this straight bro, you were hoping the outcome tonight would be a few harsh words spoken and ending in the two of you shaking hands and going your separate ways?”
“Fine maybe I wanted to smack him around a bit, but in no way did I see this turning into that douche knocked out on the ground. Do you think I should pick up flowers on the way home?”
“What a puuussssaaaayyyyyy!” Jayden starts to sing as I punch him in the shoulder.
“Fuck dude! I told you I bruise easy, knock that shit out. The ladies think I’m into weird shit when they see random bruising.”
“You are into weird shit, we’ve always shared a room growing up. I know all about your weird fucking fetishes.” Josh clears his throat, “Oh yeah baby, just like that, play with my ass.” We bust out laughing, the stuff poor Josh had to go through growing up.
“Hey man we haven’t shared a room in a long ass time! Plus, ass play is highly enjoyable for a man!” crossing his arms over his chest he stairs us down.
“Have you guys ever partaken in a little bum fun? I bet you haven’t because you guys are BORING in the sack! You don’t know what you’re missing out on. This chick was blowing me in an alley outside of a bar and right towards the end she shoved her finger right up the old ass. She set me off like a firecracker on the Fourth of July.” Jay gets a giant smile on his face as he reminisces about what seems to be a great memory from a sketchy encounter.
Josh clears his throat. “Huh. You would be correct in assuming nothing has ever been up my back door. I don’t know, it kind of skeeves me out dude. Not to mention none of the girls I’ve been with have ever brought it up or been into it themselves,” he shrugs his shoulders and they both turn to me expectantly.
“What are we on fucking Oprah?” I don’t want to talk about ass play with my brothers like we’re a bunch of golden girls.
“Sharing is caring ass face. How are you going to please Savvy if you aren’t willing to broaden your horizons?”
Little does Jay know I have a little minx on my hands. “Believe me, Savvy’s horizons are fucking broad as shit. But no to the ass question.”
“DUDE! Savvy takes it up the ass? Do you know you have unicorn on your hands?? I’m getting a chubby just thinking about the image playing through my head right now. Does she call you daddy? I love when girls call me daddy, or captain.”
“Dude shut the fuck up! You’re talking about my wife, have some respect! And no, she doesn’t fucking call me daddy, I’m not a pervert. There’s something wrong with you man?”
“Alright I’m sorry, I’ll just put that image in my spank bank for later. There we go, my mind is now clear of any sexual acts involving Savvy. But seriously dude, if she’s adventurous have her shove something up your ass, you have no fucking idea how intense it makes your orgasm with that kind of stimulation. Man, I need to get laid!”
With that conversation thankfully over, we begin our journey home. I know Savvy is going to be pissed things got physical but she surprises me with her reactions sometimes, so hopefully this time she’ll just accept how I handled things. Fucking Josh, now all I can think about is Savvy on her knees in front of me sucking my cock. I wiggle in my seat trying to hide the erection that is tenting in my pants as a throat clears. I look over to Jay who is smiling like the Cheshire Cat looking back and forth between my eyes and my dick.
“Shut the fuck up asshole.”
*****
Savvy
When we get home I anxiously pace back and forth, I’m so freaking nervous. Kyle steers me to the couch where he puts on a movie to keep us occupied until the guys get back saying my pacing was starting to make him a little anxious. Ashlyn looks bored, how can she not be shitting her pants right now?
“How are you guys so calm? What if Zander kills him? I’m still a newlywed! I’m way too young to be making conjugal visits!” I know I sound
crazy but I refuse to have sex in a communal room in prison, I’d have to stay celibate for his whole prison term. Ash gives me a look that tells me to calm the fuck down so I turn my head back to the TV pretending to pay attention to the movie.
Forty-five minutes’ pass before the guys enter through the front door and I bolt off of the couch and make a bee line for them. I notice Zander looks pleased with himself but he’s holding his hands behind his back. I narrow my eyes at him and demand to see his hands.
“Baby before you freak out, just know that I did it to protect you. We showed up and that douchebag had a candlelit dinner set up on the fucking merry go round. When he saw it was me that showed up, he accused me of locking you up somewhere. Luke has himself convinced you want to be with him, as crazy as that sounds. The situation might have escalated when I called him a pussy and told him to stay away from you. He came at me with a butter knife, a mother fucking butter knife Savvy! He definitely has some screws loose. I had to lay him out to protect myself, well, and to teach him a lesson. He now knows what happens when he fucks with what’s mine.”
I reach behind his back and pull his hands out in front of him. I gasp when I see how red they are, a few knuckles even have open cuts that are bleeding. I run out to the bathroom in search of a first aid kit. When I get back to him I pull him to the kitchen and make him sit down while I clean up his hands. They don’t look too bad after the blood is wiped off.
“Is it weird that I’m totally turned on from you defending my honor right now?”
I sit in his lap making him wrap his arms around my waist. Diving in for the kiss, he pulls me even harder against his hips. “You have entirely too many clothes on for what I have planned babe.”
I hear Ashlyn groan in frustration. “You can’t fucking wait until we’re at least out the door? Guys unless you want to see your brother drilling his wife I suggest a fast as shit exit.”
