“Of course. Now stop shooting daggers at me, and remember that I am not the enemy.” She gave me a dirty look and turned back to the screen.

“Go on and make your call, and I’ll think about forgiving you.” I snickered and fed her a piece of fruit. She was so busy causing mayhem that she’d barely touched her breakfast in the last few minutes. Her family was going to be here any minute for our last day together before we headed off to our honeymoon.

I’d had to turn my phone off because of all the calls about my marriage once the interview dropped. I had no doubt that people were even now digging into her life, but I had my people handling it, and since I already knew everything there was to know about her, I didn’t foresee any surprises.

Some people were annoyed that they hadn’t been invited, which I will handle once we get back from New Zealand, but I wasn’t too worried since most people who know me know that I answer to no one. But I don’t want anyone looking at her with disfavor because of something I did, so I’ll have my people smooth the ruffled feathers.

The truth is, I didn’t really think of anyone else when I put my plans in motion. It’s not like I had a lot of time anyway, which the interview was supposed to take care of since I spelled it all out then. But there are some associates and acquaintances who seem to think that I should have valued them enough to invite them.

I guess no one would believe that I would ever be the type for such rash behavior, and those people are going to be in for even more surprises. I find that I don’t want to be my usual take charge steam rolling self with Alyssa. Not that she’d let me any damn way.

But surprisingly, with her, I don’t have that pressing need to be in control of everything. Don’t get me wrong, when it comes to her safety and happiness, I’ll take point there, but as for everyday life, I kind of like her hair-brained approach.

There’s no real order to the way she does things, and yet if you look closely, there’s structure, and it all stems from her thought process. She doesn’t see grey, as far as I can tell. Everything is black and white, even with herself, meaning she holds herself to the same standards, which is rare. Most people are hypocrites; they just don’t seem to notice it about themselves.

With Alyssa, she means what she says and sticks to it no matter what. I can just imagine that little eight-year-old who had her heart broken by her father. That little girl is still in there, and the hurt has never healed. That’s why I’m willing to help her instead of getting in her way.

I know for a fact that with her temperament if I tried, she’d see it as me condoning the things that had been done, which I would never do to her. It may seem odd to others, but I get it. She’s as simple and complex as that.

She’s also very cold in her actions when need be, but she is not calculating; that’s where I come in. I knew about her posting the sheet five minutes before she told me she’d done it. She’s brutal and one hundred percent uncompromising. I wonder if she realizes how much comfort I get from her moral stance.

As someone in my position, it’s never easy knowing who is real and who just wants to get close for their own personal gain. It’s not like I go around investigating everyone after all, not the way I did with her. But I only did that because I knew where my interest was going, and I needed to be sure.

Now, I have no qualms about her or our relationship and believe, with everything in me, that I would never have to worry about her stepping out on me or abusing my trust. Since that was one of my biggest detractions to the marital state, she can have no idea how much it means to me to have found her.

That’s why I’m going to help her take care of business. See, her vengeance can only go so far, but someone with my resources can take it much further. Once we’re back from our honeymoon I’ll let her in on how much power she now wields as my wife, but I want in on some of the fun, too.

I don’t like that these people had hurt her. t may seem silly, after all, I didn’t even know her when these things occurred. But she’s still carrying the pain from not only Denny’s betrayal but Helen and her Dad’s as well.
