It Wasn't Me (KPD Motorcycle Patrol 2) - Page 50

“I do,” Piper said as she pulled out the letter. She looked over at me with a grin. “I was going to have my dad’s friend look into it. He’s a guru on the computer.”

I squeezed her hand and sat up, wincing slightly at the soreness in my body.

“All right, Mr. Crew.” The nurse came in. “You’re all ready to go.”

I looked at my nearly naked state.

I was in a pair of boxer briefs and nothing else.

She laughed. “I have a set of scrubs in the back I can get you.”

I waved her off and looked over at Piper. “I have a gym bag in the back of my truck. Could you go get it?”

Piper nodded, pressing a soft kiss to my cheek. “Yes.”

Then she was gone, leaving me with two men who were staring at me with curiosity.

“What?” I asked grumpily.

“You love her,” Captain Morgan said.

I gave them both a look of disgust. “Of course I fuckin’ love her.”

Rios grinned. “It’s just surprising. You’re the biggest asshole at the station. You don’t like anybody…not even your brother. But her? You love her.”

I thought about that for a long moment, then shrugged.

“I do.”Chapter 14People say I’m condescending. (That means I talk down to people.)

-Text from Piper to Pru

Piper

“Are you sure that you want to go?” I asked worriedly.

Jonah rolled his eyes and took the keys out of my hand, pocketing them before opening my door.

Even in his hurt state, he was still being courteous and solicitous.

I loved him.

God, how I loved him.

When that police officer had come to the door earlier and told me that Jonah had been in an accident, I’d been a wreck. Hearing that he was okay hadn’t dampened my fear.

As Jonah prowled around the hood of his truck, I watched him. Watched as he didn’t limp or look hurt at all.

Hell, if it wasn’t for the stitches on his face, you wouldn’t be able to tell that he’d been in an accident period.

When he got inside and fixed the seat that I’d had to pull forward an entire foot, I continued to watch him.

It was only after we were pulling out of the parking lot that I repeated my question that he’d yet to answer.

“Are you sure that you want to go?” I asked again.

He glanced over at me.

“Yes, I’m sure,” he answered. “I want to meet your father and mother, officially, as your husband. I also don’t want to start off on the wrong foot with them.”

I smiled.

“My dad is already going to be pissy because he’s recuperating. He’s going to be extra pissy when he finds out that he didn’t get to walk me down the aisle,” I pointed out.

He grumbled something under his breath, and I had to strain to hear.

“We’ll just get married again if that’s what he wants.”

I smiled all the way to their house.

When he pulled up into the compound, and I told him the gate code, we rolled inside and stopped in front of the first building.

Jonah

“Nice place,” I murmured. “I thought this was the office.”

“It is,” she admitted. “Dad’s sat his ass in front of the security monitors, from what I’ve been told. He’s been doing some shit from the office because he’s tired of us ‘hounding him’ about ‘being okay’ and ‘doing too much.’”

“Maybe y’all are driving him fuckin’ out of his mind,” I suggested.

She rolled her eyes and got out.

But before she could go inside and lead me along with her, Piper’s sister called her name from the house across the way.

The house was beautiful. It was something that you’d see out of a fuckin’ Home and Country magazine, only it was in the middle of Fort Knox.

The compound was made up of quite a few homes that I could see, and there were even some smaller dwellings off to the side that looked to be in use, too.

But all of the homes were encompassed in a rather large compound guarded by fences that even the most hardened of criminals couldn’t breach without losing a leg in the process.

“Piper! Come here, I want to show you something,” Pru called. “Holy shit, my baby is walking!”

Piper left me like a hot potato, and I wondered whether I should go inside to talk to her dad or go with her to see whatever baby was walking.

I would’ve followed Piper had the door not opened and a very pissed off looking Sam stared out at me.

“Jonah,” he said. “Fancy seeing you here.”

I felt my gut clench.

His eyes narrowed on my face.

“What happened to you?” he asked.

I gestured with my chin to him as I climbed up the stairs. “The same thing that happened to you, only I got out a bit easier than you did.”

Sam’s eyes studied me, then moved to Piper who was clapping and cheering with his girls.
