“You know, her number is right there if you want to ask her yourself.”

“You think I won’t?”

Levi laughed. “I never doubted it for a second. Go ahead.”

Kinley mumbled something under her breath and pulled out her phone to text Tara. Levi did his best not to grin.

Her phone buzzed almost immediately and Kinley burst out laughing as she read the message.

“She asked ‘who the fuck are you?’”

Levi chuckled. “Tell her.”

“Oh, I will.” She sent another text but didn’t get a response.

“What did you say?”

“I told her I’m the woman you’re in love with, so back the fuck off.”

He couldn’t help but laugh and shake his head.

“Well, hopefully now she’ll leave me alone.”

“Somehow I doubt it.” When the phone buzzed again, Kinley looked at Levi with a raised eyebrow.

“Told you,” she said.

“Read it.”

“First off, what color is her hair?”

Levifrowned but answered. “Blonde.”

He listened as Kinley typed away, then handed him back his phone with a smile. He shook his head.

“I’m afraid to ask.”

Kinley shrugged. “I just told her if she bothered you again, I’d pull her blonde hair out by her black roots, end of story.”

He didn’t say anything, but bit his lip to keep from grinning, as they followed Cody’s truck into the hotel parking lot.

“What a beautiful place,” Kinley remarked.

“Yeah, it is. This must have cost a fortune.”

“Cody can afford it. We all know that. His bulls bring in a lot of money.”

“I’m aware.” Levi parked the truck and turned off the engine before stepping out, stretching his arms, and arching his back.

Kinley followed suit. “It feels good to move around after sitting for so long.”

Levi grabbed his duffle bag and Kinley’s small overnight case from the backseat, and they walked over to where Cody and Addison were waiting.

“Man, I feel like we’ve been driving forever. Even though it’s only a two-hour trip,” Cody complained.

“We stayed up pretty late,” Addison added, her cheeks turning pink as everyone looked at her. “Shut up.”

Kinley laughed. “We were up late too.” She glanced at Levi, who winked at her.
