Deputy Nick Dalton carried the case file into the sheriff's office. “Here you go, sir,” Nick said. “Thanks, Dalton,” the sheriff said and took the folder. “Have a seat, Dalton.” He couldn’t imagine what the sheriff wanted to talk about. He had finished his reports yesterday and turned them in already. Nick sat down in the chair across from the sheriff’s desk. “Dalton, normally I wouldn’t complain about a hard working man, but you have worked twelve-hour days, six days a week for almost a year now. Surely, you don’t need the money. Your brother’s estate was settled three months ago,” the sheriff said. He knew that because Nick had taken a day off to go to the hearing. Nick remained quiet. He had to come up with another excuse. His brother’s estate was worth $1,500,000, so he couldn’t say he still needed the money. Nick figured out what to say and it wasn’t a lie. “I like my job.”The sheriff got up and walked to his office do

Gabriella drove on the Arizona back road. The wind from the open windows blew her long, dark hair. She was going to visit her cousins. She hadn’t seen them since her father died. The last time she had spoken to them on the phone was fifteen months ago. They didn’t know she was coming. She didn’t either until she had stormed out of her mother’s house in Mexico for the last time.She had no idea where her older brother was. If you looked up the word, drifter, his picture would be next to it. A loud pop echoed from the front of her Honda Civic. The car leaned to the right.“Shit!” Gabriella pulled over on the side of the road. She got out of the car and walked around to the passenger side. The side wall of her front tire had a hole in it.Gabriella dug in her purse for the directions. She looked at the computer printout. She was fifteen miles away from her destination. She had a donut in the trunk, but she didn’t know how to change a tire. “Ugh, great.”Thirty minutes later, Gabriella st

Nick planned to settle in at home with a book. Tomorrow morning he was going to call the P.I. he had hired to help him find Ghost. There was a knock at the door. Nick opened it. It was the sheriff and Goldman. “Look alive, Dalton,” Goldman said loudly and entered the living room without being invited in. The sheriff walked in behind him. “Why do you have on boxers and a T-shirt?” Goldman asked. “Because it’s nine-thirty. I was about to go to bed,” Nick answered with annoyance. “On a Friday night? You’re off. We’re off. Get that pussy repellent clothing off, put on something decent, and let’s go,” Goldman demanded and plopped down on the couch. “We’ll wait. Won’t we, General?”The sheriff smirked and put his hands in his pockets. “And where are we supposedly going?” Nick asked. “Garvey’s,” Goldman answered. “What? On a Friday night? You’ve lost

Nick’s mouth dropped open when he saw Jackie standing on stage. Her dark, natural curly hair cascaded down her shoulders. She wore a black teddy with black high heel shoes. Nick’s eyes widened at the sight of her. He knew the contest hadn’t started yet, but Jackie had to be the hottest woman in the room. Her long light hue legs and hips were magnificent. Nick felt a familiar twitch in his pants. It was rising. Jackie’s voice was like velvet on the mic. He continued to gawk at her. “Dalton!” Goldman yelled. Nick snapped out of the haze he was in. “What?” Goldman smirked. “Close your mouth.” He frowned at him. “Not bad for - what did you call her? A rigid anal repressive,” Goldman teased. Nick didn’t know what to say. “You may as well shake that bulge off. You said yourself, she hates you. You’re not getting any from her.” Nick felt an excitement that he hadn’

It was Saturday night at Garvey’s. The customers were still talking about the wet nightie contest from last night. It was 9:30 p.m. Garvey’s wasn’t over capacity like it was last night, but the staff was still busy. Jackie helped Trina at the bar. Jodi helped Daniel in the kitchen. Gabriella waited tables with Becky and Sandy. Gabriella sat down a drink order for two men and two women at a booth. She turned to head back to the bar when she noticed Jeff Goldman and Nick Dalton walk in with three brunettes.The three brunettes were all over Nick. Jeff proudly grinned. Gabriella’s curiosity got the best of her. She put a smile on her face and headed in their direction. Jeff beamed when he saw her. “Hey, my little hot tamale.” Gabriella put her arm around his strong and solid waist. He placed his arm around her shoulders. They gave each other a half hug. “Hi. Back for some more fun?” she asked.“Absolutely,” Jeff said in a deep voice and gav
