And with that assurance, I walk out to fly home to Live Oak, Alabama, to wait for Seary to return to Vegas.

Leaving the flight line, I check my iPhone for any new messages, but there aren’t any.Beverly’s weekly update is late.

Walking back to debrief my students, I wonder if no news is good news.It’s been over a month since Seary vanished.

Back in hardcore survival mode, my heart is on lockdown until the gorgeous golden goddess returns.I finally find a woman who makes me feel alive, and I’m not letting her go.It’s not a matter ofifI will have her, but when.

My phone vibrates as Dos Gringo’s song, "Has Anyone Seen My Wingman?"announces a call from Dirk Sam.I hit ignore and let it go to voicemail.I know why he’s calling.The British babe he married has decided on which apartment complex she wants to live in.I’ll handle it on my way to work in the morning.

The next morning,I pull into the parking lot, turn the key in the ignition, and shut my truck down.My eyes scan the landscape.It’s a nice, high-end apartment complex.Upscale and quiet.

Dos Gringo's sing.My wingman is calling.I pick up my phone as my eyes focus on the office building."Moore speaking.Yeah man, I'm at Dogwood Court now checking on the apartment for you...."

The office door swings open.A bolt of lightning shoots through me and I stare dumbfounded."What the hell?"

My hand lowers the phone and I grip the steering wheel as I stare at the most beautiful girl in the world as she casually walks across the parking lot right in front of me.I hear Sam talking and lift the phone back to my ear."Let me call you back."

I can't believe it!Seary!Seary is here.Right there!

My eyes follow her like a hawk hunting its prey.She looks professional, but there is no hiding her curves.Her breasts pushed up by her bra, strain the buttons of her white shirt, and the cut of her black skirt hugs her nice ass.There is no hiding a body built like that.She IS simply stunning!

She stops next to a customized Shelby GT500, and accidentally drops her keys.With her back to me, I watch as the flexible dancer slowly bends over her stiletto’s.Her skirt sliding up to hug her perfect ass as she reaches down to them.She takes a small step to the side to balance herself as she reaches under the car to retrieve them, and she flashes me.

She is panty-less!I laugh out loud at my view."This girl is perfect!"

Another lightning bolt jolts me, and the word 'perfect' echoes around in my mind, taking on a completely different context as I watch her pull her skirt down then lower her voluptuous body gracefully into the car.She glances my way as she eases out of the parking spot and a ray of sunlight highlights her face."She is simply stunning" falls off my tongue and out my mouth again as I watch her drive away.When she vanishes out of my sight, my gut tightens, Ihaveto have her.

I close my eyes and lean my head back, absorbing what just happened.I see her dancing on the stage.I feel the fire she lights within me, scorching my soul.Her golden tips, swaying so hypnotically.I stare at the ceiling.My heart has come alive with feeling again and my whole body fills with longing for her.I need her like I’ve never needed a woman before.

Grandpa Al’s voice echoes in my mind."You will find someone, Maximus, who can handle your secrets."Then Grandpa Moore’s, "Your grandmother completes me, son.She makes me whole."

What if this woman, who has this extraordinary effect on me, is the one who not only can handle my secrets but who will complete me?

I look down the drive where Seary vanished.

And what are the odds that our paths would cross right here, right now?They are truly astronomical.

I grip the steering wheel and hang my head, struggling to think logically."She's on my turf.I'll take her on my terms.I am going to make this happen right now!I am not waiting for her to return to Vegas.”

I open the truck door and get out.As I walk to the apartment building, I call Dirk back."Sam-I-Am, sorry about that, but the girl of my dreams just walked by."
