    phone ringing sounded. After two rings a sultry feminine voice purred, “Gabe, baby, how are you?” “Diamond. I’m fine. Sorry if I interrupted anything…” he looked at the car’s clock. It was barely past nine. “Don’t be silly, sweetheart. You know I’m always available for you.” Gabriel grimaced at her suggestive purr. The band’s manager had been trying to weasel her way into his pants for the longest time. Unfortunately, for her, Gabriel never mixed business with pleasure. “Right,” he answered a bit hesitantly. “Thanks. I just wanted to know what’s been discussed with the rep from North Star so far.” “Oh…” Gabriel could almost imagine her putting on her business manager mask and fluffing out her fake blonde hair. “They haven’t really said much. I submitted the requests Michael and Rafe asked for in the contract and Mr. Montenegro hasn’t answered yet. I’m pretty sure they’ll accept, but I believe he’s been away on business for the past couple of weeks. Why do you want to know?” Gabriel bit his bottom lip. He wasn’t about to spill the dirty family secrets to her. “Just wondering. Have you spoken to Mr. Montenegro directly?” Diamond sighed out in exasperation. “Well I’ve tried, but that pesky assistant of his always has an excuse to keep him from answering any of my calls directly.

He just wasn’t in the mood for anyone’s company at the moment. “Oh, Gabe, I’m so sorry to hear that,” Diamond said softly. “Would you like me to contact a friend of mine? She has an agency that provides caretakers for sick people. They’re completely certified and licensed nurses.” Gabriel grinned. “Not unless I want my grandmother and Sharmane to put my balls in a sling. Granma thinks she’s just fine and doesn’t want anyone else fussing over her. Sharmane would feel insulted having someone else look after my grandmother.” Diamond laughed. “Fine. Do you want me to come over? I can bring my wine?” she purred suggestively again. Gabriel cringed. “Wow…soundssss really tempting, but I’ve got allot on m mind right now, and I need to work on some personal stuff—“ “Is that girl still stalking you, Gabe?” Gabriel winced at the way the woman’s tone turned venomous. “Mikayla’s harmless, Diamond.” “I’ve got a bad feeling about her, Gabe. I keep telling you to stay away from her. She’s just a little gold digger.” Probably. Gabriel wondered if Diamond knew that the chick was engaged to Daniel Montenegro II. “I’m sure you’re right, Diamond. Don’t worry. I ...
