What Happens in Vegas: Doesn't stay in Vegas

Chapter 18

Mayas POV

Monday is back to work as normal. I walk into the office and place my bag in my drawer. I promised Carina I would get my name changed taken care of first thing. I made an appointment at the DMV for the afternoon and go from there. I take Carina her coffee and wait for her instructions for the day. She's on the phone but finishes the call as soon as she sees me. "You're later than usual."

I smile. "I made an appointment to get my name changed."

She smiles back at me. "Very good." I roll my eyes. I go over her schedule and when I finish, Carina begins going through today's tasks that need completed. I walk around her desk to give her a kiss when a knock sounds at the door. Carina holds my hand, keeping me in place as she gives the person on the other end permission to enter. "Enter"

Dean has got to be over 6 foot. He's gigantic. He has dark chocolate skin and a deep voice. I've met him once and he's a hard man to forget. He comes in holding a file folder. "Ma'am." Dean looks at me then back to Carina, as if he's asking if it's okay to speak infornt of me.

"What is it?" Carina asks.

Dean places the folder on the desk in front on Carina. "It wasn't an accident."

Carina looks through the file. There are pictures, police reports, medical reports and also a USB drive. "Does he have an accomplice?" She asks.

Dean nods, then speaks. "Yes Ma'am. I haven't identified him yet though." Carina hands back the file but keeps the thumb drive. "Sit on it for a few days. I want him to sweat." After Carina gave him the order, Dean closes the door behind him as he leaves.

Carina spends the rest of the day in her office. I cancel all of her meetings for the day as per her instructions. The day slips away and eventually it's time for me to go to my appointment. I knock on Carinas door. I walk in and go straight to the room. Carina is lying down with her face hidden in the crook of her elbow. I walk to her side. "Carina? I'm leaving now. I have that appointment I have to get to."

"What appointment?" Oh thank goodness she isn't asleep.

"At the DMV. Do you have a headache? I can get you some pain relief if you want?" I ask her.

"I'm just not able to think about work right now." I kiss her soft lips and feel her kiss me back, but her arm doesn't move off of her face. "Tell Ryan to bring Dean and Kyle with you."

I stand up straight. "Okay I will. Why don't you go home for the day? There's no point being here. I'll be there as soon as I can." She takes a deep breath.

"Okay. Hurry home."

Ryan work some kind of magic because we are in and out in 15 minutes. He takes me home as soon as we were finished. Mrs Bailey greets me as I come through the door. "Is Carina home?" I ask her. I hope she says yes.

She has a look of worry on her face as she says, "Yes miss. She's in the bedroom." I nod and make my way to our room.

I walk into our room. I put my bag down, take off my glasses and kick off my shoes. I'm shaking out my hair when the bathroom door opens. Carina walks out in only a towel. She stops as soon as she sees me. "I thought you had an appointment?" She asks kind of confused. It's cute.

She's cute.

I'm caught in an extremely sexy spiders web. I can't make myself move, let alone look away. "I.. I finished."

She smirks at my stuttering. "You're staring."

I swallow. "Yeah, well... it's ha..hard not to."

She steps closer to me. "And why is that?" She is like a predator with her prey in her sights. We're standing chest to chest and she's making direct eye contact with me.
