Step One: Set the ground rules early on. Clear communication is key. You’re
the muscle.
She’s the target. Simple. Easy.
“My name is Constantine Leos, and I’m your bodyguard.”
The beautiful blonde who’d been swiping a rather shady-looking white
cloth over the top of the bar paused at Constantine’s announcement.
He kept
his shoulders back and his arms loose at his sides. This was supposed to be an
assignment that he didn’t fuck up, and he was going to stick to the Wilde
rules on this one. Okay, fine, so maybe Wilde—the security firm that now
employed him—didn’t exactly have a set of rules when it came to this precise
situation. So Constantine had decided to improvise.
Slowly, the blonde tilted back her head. Deep, dark chocolate eyes—
warmed with flecks of gold—locked on him. Her bow-shaped lips curled in
the faintest of smiles as she nodded. “Does that pickup line often work for
you?”
Voices rose and fell behind him. It was a Friday night, and Sal’s, the bar
in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, was certainly hopping. Plenty of people were
hooking up in the bar, no doubt about it, but Constantine hadn’t traveled
across multiple states and enjoyed the comfort of his boss’s private jet just so
he could hit on a pretty blonde. “It’s not a pickup line. It’s the truth.” He
turned his head and cast an eye around the packed place.
“Too many people
are here. I don’t like it.” Talk about a logistical nightmare.
“Then, ah, if you don’t like it, you should probably leave. There are lots
of less crowded places in the area.” Gravely polite.
His attention shifted back to her. “I’m not going to leave without you.”
She took a tiny step back. He saw her hold tighten on the off-white
cloth. The smile slipped from her lips. “I don’t intend to go anywhere with
you. My shift doesn’t end until 2 a.m.”
Constantine’s head shook. “Bad mistake. You never, ever tell a stranger
when you’re getting off work. I could be planning to stay around and wait out
back for you. You come out on your own at 2 a.m., and then I could grab
you.”
Her eyes flared with alarm even as a gasp tore from her.
I am screwing this up. “Not that I intend to do that, of course,”
Constantine rushed to reassure her because he certainly didn’t want her
terrified of him. Her terror would just make things awkward. “I’m your
bodyguard. My job is to keep you safe.”
There. She should be feeling better.
She backed up a little more. Constantine noticed that she’d dropped the
cloth. “Right.” Now she smiled again, and the smile took the woman before
him from being pretty to absolutely stunning. Unforgettable. It was the most
charming and warm smile he’d ever seen in his life, and Constantine found
himself leaning forward because he wanted to get closer to her as—
“Johnny, gonna need you to escort this guy out.” She pointed straight at
Constantine.
