Beau Boyette pulled into the parking lot at the Gautreaux Chateau on the
bayou west of New Orleans, Louisiana. Dressed in a Robin Hood costume,
complete with a green coat, a quiver of arrows, a thick belt and the
signature green hat, he felt ridiculous, mostly because of the goddamn green
tights. He prayed his Brotherhood Protectors teammates hadn’t seen him
leaving the boarding house in Bayou Mambaloa. He’d never hear the end of
it.
He dug into his jacket pocket for his cell phone. Having put off this call
as long as he could, he needed to get it over with and clear his slate for
however long his mission might take.
“Beau, cher,” his mother, Josephine Boyette, answered on the first ring
in her heavy Cajun accent. “Comment ça se plume?” Translated: How’s it
plucking?
Beau grinned at his mother’s favorite Cajun saying. “Bien, Maman.”
“Why we have non seen you in da past week? You’re gonna be here for
da Sunday dinner, oui? It will be da first time in eight years since all ten of
mes enfants have been together.”
“Maman, I can’t make the family dinner on Sunday. I got my first
assignment and have to work.”
“You no can put it off ‘til Monday?” she asked.
“No, Maman,” he said. “I work 24/7.”
“You no in l’armee anymore. You come to da dinner.”
“No, Maman. I’m not in the Army anymore, but I work providing
protection for people,” he explained for the fifth time since hiring on with
the Brotherhood Protectors.
“Surely, you get a day off,” his mother said. “Do I need to talk to da
boss?”
God forbid his mother should talk to his lead over the Bayou
Brotherhood Protectors. He’d never hear the end of the ribbing he’d get
from Remy Montagne or the rest of the team. Or she could make it worse
and take her complaint to Hank Patterson, the man who’d started the
original Brotherhood Protectors organization.
Beau sighed. “Maman, you don’t need to talk to my boss. I signed on to
dis job, knowing it could mean working 24/7 to protect our clients. I’m just
calling to let you know I won’t be at da family dinner. I’ll try to make it
another time.”
“But—” his mother started.
“Je suis désolé,” I’m sorry, Beau said. “I have to go. My job starts
tonight. Je t’aime. Au revoir.” He ended the call before his mother could get
all wound up and talk for another thirty minutes.
Beau didn’t have time to talk. He’d been hired by Senator Marcus
Anderson to protect his daughter Aurelie.
