But fuck Tacker was piloting the small aircraft with his fiancée beside him that he was set to marry within a feeeks I’d heard rumors that she didn’t die instantly, but suffered for quite a while before she did Tacker was pinned in the wreckage and couldn’t help her I’d heard it took rescuers over four hours to reach them and if his fiancée took any amount of that ti, I can’t say I blauy
If that had happened to Blue—
Fuck…I cannot even think about that
Yeah…I’ht—
Because Legend is no longer fucking Valerie, the flight attendant, we can’t quite playa room at each hotel we stay at for Blue and I to share I consider it to be perhaps the best use of the insane amount of money I make
Idisposed of the condom I’d just filled and slide back in bed next to her I don’t bother to pull the covers up yet as I’m still warm after that insane bout of sex we just had Despite the fact I’y in o at it hard with Blue
Tonight, I also had a bit of anger brewing deep inside me because of what happened to Tacker earlier I texted Bishop when I got to the rooot back to the hotel from the arena No one’s seen him since and I hope the fucker is okay
A bunch of the guys went out tonight, and I had several of my former Demons teammates try to induce lory days here I declined for two reasons First, I don’t want to be around the they’d all think it was pretty fucked-up what Nilsson said to Tacker, they’re still teammates with the man and would be loyal to hiht
But ht I have the option to bring Blue along, but I don’t want her to seewithdays are behind her as well, and I remember all too clearly how offended she hen I called her a party girl
Forbeside her quietly in bed—than go out tonight
“So you,” Blue says into the dark as she rolls toward ertips to stroke patterns on my chest
I siving each other extre silently
“You know that fight Tacker got in tonight?” I ask her
“Yeah”
I proceed to tell her why it happened, feeling coe over what Nilsson said to Tacker I hold her quietly while she vents her own anger, using very colorful curse words and asking o kill Nilsson Just like Bishop, she asks, “You knohere he lives, right?”
But she settles just the way I do, and then she turns melancholy for Tacker “I wish he’d let us help him”
“Not sure we can,” I reply as I stroke her back “How do you help athe woman he loves die?”
I know I couldn’t get over Blue dying
I wonder if thatit probably doesChapter 24ErikMy house is quiet when I enter through the garage, straight into the mudroom Of course it’s quiet because I’m the only one here which is par for the course Except now the quiet bothersme
I juggle the shopping bags in my hands as I put my keys on the small rack by the door I find solace in the fact that Blue will be here soon While I was at an afternoon practice, she went to see Billy for a bit then she had plans to do her laundry before co back to my house where we’d ht Toary, which is the teahteen I played two years there for the Wild and then three years for the Atlanta Sting before I went to the Demons
