Tailwind (Love By Design 4) - Page 40

My phone rang and sure enough it was Chase. He had this uncanny ability to ring me and force me to dump all my problems on his lap. Didn’t matter if it was the dog refusing to eat or my package that never showed up from Amazon and I was convinced the mail carrier had it out for me.

“Winsome…” Chase drawled over the phone.

“Are you drunk?” I asked trying to ascertain the mood he was in. It wasn’t often he imbibed alcohol and his lazy words sounded sexy through the phone.

“Nope.” He popped the p and I giggled.

“Yes you are.” I countered.

“Okay, maybe a little but the guys went for tattoos and I had to supervise my future brother in law.”

“Hunter?”

“No, Damien. It’s inevitable.”

That poor guy had a reputation which I didn’t think was one hundred percent undeserved but still.

“Are you sure, and don’t think we’re not going to circle back to the tattoo business.”

“I’m positive.” He sounded like he was choking and holding back.

“Chase?”

“I caught him banging my sister and threw up in my mouth.”

“Pretty sure I didn’t need that visual either.”

“Sorry. I couldn’t keep it to myself. My eyes would like a bleach bath but then I couldn’t perform surgery.”

I thought about this for second and despite everyone’s reservations, it probably wasn’t our business to interfere either.

“They are cute together.”

“I’m sorry, is this my girlfriend?”

“It would seem so.”

“Okay, don’t defend Damien. You don’t know him well enough.”

“Sounds reasonable.”

“Trust me. So tell me why your parents are not there this weekend?”

“Because my mother got some crazy idea in her head that my dad is still cheating on her so she flipped out when he was fifteen minutes late in downtown traffic and decided to not get in the car with him. Dad got mad and drove to the hospital instead of coming up here by himself. He’s prepping for a residency in Albany.”

“Ouch.”

“Yeah, but it’s better than having them here fighting and driving me nuts.”

“And you’re by yourself.”

“Are we counting the three souls of Satan?”

“Generally, no.”

“Than yes.”

“I’m sorry, Win. I really wish you were here.”
