I\u2019m not cheap and I fly private these days,\u201d Dash said, a professional sense of humor had him fighting the grin he clearly wanted to give. Austin chuckled. \u201cIt\u2019s funny because it\u2019s true,\u201d Austin said dryly. \u201cBut please, let Slade\u2019s love life cost me thousands of dollars.\u201d I had canceled our meeting twice because I didn\u2019t want to jeopardize the balance Mace and I had created by leaving for any length of time.<\/p>\n

What I should have done was promise to keep the next meeting no matter what happened. I didn\u2019t do that, knowing full well that I still wasn\u2019t ready to leave my cocoon. So I nodded a good convincing shake of my head. \u201cDash, after I talk to Mace, we may need more of your services,\u201d Kitt said.<\/p>\n

\u201cSure, what\u2019re you needing?\u201d Dash asked and sat back. A notebook rested on one thigh, a pen in hand. \u201cHe\u2019s seven hundred dollars an hour, Slade. Do you really need him, or would a cheaper legal advisor be enough?\u201d Austin asked. \u201cHey. I\u2019m giving you my friends and family discount,\u201d Dash countered. \u201cI pay him enough a year to put all of those kids through college,\u201d Austin shot back.<\/p>\n

\u201cSlade and his partner Mace are lookin\u2019 to start an animal refuge. They\u2019ll need help and someone who is really watchin\u2019 their back. You take care of us so it seems we could extend your services to Mace,\u201d Kitt explained to Dash, clearly the voice of reason in Austin\u2019s life. \u201cSlade has an attorney,\u201d Austin explained, showing his profile as he turned to say those words directly to Kitt. \u201cI suspect Mace is overwhelmed. Dash has that way about him that makes you feel better,\u201d Kitt explained to the screen, refusing to look at Austin.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou don\u2019t know the man,\u201d Austin said, still facing Kitt. That was enough of a statement to frustrate Kitt, who jerked his head Austin\u2019s direction. \u201cYou\u2019re a cheapskate. This guy\u2019s been through it,\u201d Kitt said, shaking his head dismissively. \u201cI\u2019ll pay for it.\u201d \u201cWe share everything. What\u2019s yours is mine,\u201d Austin said, defensively. \u201cSlade, I\u2019ll happily handle whatever you need,\u201d Dash said, talking loudly to cut through their disagreement, directly to me.<\/p>\n

\u201cThank you. Kitt\u2019s not wrong, Mace\u2019s had a difficult time. He needs someone on his side. I\u2019ll pay but it\u2019s probably best if you\u2019re willing to represent Mace\u2019s interests,\u201d I said, wanting my guy to feel safe and informed every step of the way. \u201cSure. I\u2019ll handle this myself, although I\u2019m semi-retired. That just means I work forty hours a week and no more,\u201d Dash explained. \u201cAlso, only as a heads up, if I travel overnight, my family comes with me.\u201d<\/p>\n

I miss you every minute of every day. It never fades. 1kitap1.com\/en Prologue Mason Sutton 7 years ago The ear-piercing squeak of the swinging saloon doors came with all the creaking that only hand-carved more than a hundred-year-old white oak could achieve. How the batwing doors were still attached to the doorframe was a marvel in itself.<\/p>\n

As far as I knew, the hinges holding the doors in place were forged before the industrial revolution became a thing. Those double-action hinges had stood the test of time but did nothing to help my aching head or tired body. The clanking bells attached to the modern front door didn\u2019t help either. The culprit who let the doors make all that racket was technically the man who owned this bar.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
