Rolling her eyes, Pamela responded. “I drive a Jeep, I’m on a rock tour with one of my favorite bands, I eat far too much meat to be accepted into PETA, and…” She unbuttoned her suit jacket and pulled the fabric of her blouse up.
No way. “What in the fuck?” Coming closer, he reached toward her.
Turning quickly, she planted her hand firmly on his chest. “Nobody touches my baby but me, Damion.” When he growled, she corrected herself. “Sorry, Chains—nobody touches my baby but me, Chains.”
“You know how to handle that Glock?”
“I know how to handle my gun just fine thank you.” Throwing the wrapper away from her granola bar, she tossed him that same snotty smile from earlier. “By the way, it’s not a Glock. It’s a Kahr Arms CW9 in these hands. I’ve had issues with my Glock 19 jamming, so I tend to favor this 9-millimeter Luger. What do you carry?”
Holy. Fucking. Shit. She’d just made him hard as granite with that gun talk. Pamela wasn’t carrying some little pink 22 pistol, no, she had some heat in her hands and by the sound of it, she knew what she was talking about.
Without even blinking, he answered. “.357 Derringer.”
“Ahh a cop gun, huh? I would’ve guessed something bigger.” He saw the moment it dawned on her. “Wait. That’s only a four shot, right? You’re carrying something else then, too.”
Hard as a fucking rock, he cleared his throat. “What makes you say that?”
“You’re hired security, a bodyguard; you’re packing more than a four pinger.”
“I don’t pack a pinger at all, sweetheart.”
“You know what I mean.” She stepped closer to him. “That’s your backup gun, isn’t it?”
“How do you know so much about firepower, Miss Pamela Myers, personal assistant to the stars?”
“I’m in charge of my safety, and I plan to stay safe, Mr. Damion Lopez.”
“Chains.”
“Mr. Chains Lopez. Better?”
Chains raised an eyebrow and smiled. “And here I was worried you’d be a delicate little flower that would get trampled on by a bunch of rock stars with shitty attitudes.”
“What’s your main piece?” Looking him over, she asked with her eyes. He nodded, and she ran her hand from his knee down. “This would be the Derringer, right?” He nodded again. Standing, she reached under his arm to his back, and just as she was about to make purchase, his hand grabbed hold of her wrist. When their eyes met, she saw a fire looking back at her. “You wouldn’t be carrying anything less than or bigger than a 9- millimeter.”
If she kept this up, he’d be shooting in his jeans like a goddamn teenager and he didn’t mean the gun. “Ber—” clearing his throat, he started over. “Beretta 92FS.”
“9-millimeter, like I said. No Glock?”
“I’ve had…jamming issues.”
Now, it was her turn to laugh when he used her words back at her…again.
