Blood and Bones Blood Ties
The study felt smaller with the four of us in it — Declan, his uncle, Luca standing sentinel by the door, and me seated at the edge of the long table, watching the man who’d helped raise Declan into the leader he’d become.“You think I’m the leak,” his uncle said, not a question, his voice steady in a way that could have meant innocence or decades of practice concealing guilt. I’d seen both kinds of calm too many times in my father’s world to tell the difference on instinct alone.“I think someone with access to flight logs, security rotations, and wedding planning fed information to Rinaldi,” Declan said. “I think that list is short. And I think you deserve the chance to explain yourself before I draw conclusions.”His uncle’s eyes flicked to me, something unreadable passing behind them. “And the girl. She’s part of this conversation now?”“She’s my wife,” Declan said, with a finality that settled something warm and unexpected in my chest despite the tension choking the room. “She’s
Blood and Bones What he knows
“Say it,” I finally said, when the silence became unbearable. “Whatever you’re thinking. Say it.”Declan’s eyes stayed fixed on the passing city, jaw working before the words came. “He didn’t just anticipate us falling into bed together. He orchestrated the opportunity for it to happen. The jet, the timeline, even the itinerary — Luca booked that flight through his usual channels. If Rinaldi had eyes on the schedule three days before the party, that means someone in our own operation is feeding him information in real time.”“A second leak,” I said, the words tasting like ash. “Not just Nico.”“Nico was a tool. Someone closer gave him the target.” Declan’s hands tightened on the wheel, knuckles whitening. “Which means whoever it is has access to flight logs, security rotations, probably the wedding planning itself.”The implications spread out in front of me like the map in the study, red pins multiplying faster than we could track them. Someone close enough to know our schedules. Som
Blood and Bones Nico’s Trail
“You’re supposed to have two men with you at all times,” he reminded me as we climbed into the car, an edge of something almost like humor threading through the exhaustion in his voice.“I have you,” I said. “That’s one. Fergus is driving. That’s two. Do the math, Callahan.”He didn’t argue further, though the look he gave me said he knew exactly what I was doing — needling him, keeping things light, because the alternative was sitting with the silence and the fear clawing under my ribs for my father. Better to spar with Declan than drown in that.The apartment was empty when we arrived, exactly as Fergus had predicted. Not ransacked — cleared. Every drawer emptied with a precision that spoke of professionals, not panic. Declan moved through the rooms methodically, checking behind mirrors, beneath floorboards that had been pried up and nailed back down just slightly crooked.“He’s thorough,” Declan said, crouching by a floor vent that had been unscrewed recently, the dust pattern dist
Blood and Bones The Leak
Maeve found it first, just before dawn broke fully over the estate — a discrepancy buried in three months of security logs that nobody else had thought to cross-reference against the catering staff hired for the engagement party.“Here.” She turned her laptop around so Declan and I could see the screen, her finger tapping a name highlighted in yellow. “Nico Ferretti. Hired through an agency two days before the party, no prior work history with any of the vendors we usually use. He had access to the east wing for four hours setting up the audio equipment.”“The east wing overlooks the airstrip,” I said, the pieces clicking into place with a cold, sick certainty. “If he had a clear line of sight from up there with the right equipment—”“He could have photographed the jet on approach,” Declan finished, already reaching for his phone. “Luca, I need everything on a Nico Ferretti, agency hire, four days ago. Now.”Luca was gone before the sentence finished, footsteps receding down the hallw
Blood and Bones The War Room
By two in the morning, the estate’s private study had become something closer to a command center than the quiet room my father used to disappear into with his brandy and his ledgers. Declan stood at the head of the long table, sleeves rolled to his elbows, a map of the city spread out in front of him with red pins marking every property Rinaldi was known — or suspected — to control.Luca sat to his right, running through the guard rotation logs on his laptop, searching for the gap that had let five armed men walk into a house that was supposed to be impenetrable. Fergus stood near the door, arms crossed, silent in the way he got when he was furious and saving it for later. And Maeve, who’d arrived sometime after Luca with her hair still damp from being woken out of a dead sleep, was already cross-referencing every name Marco had managed to give them before the sedatives took hold.I sat across from Declan, a mug of coffee cooling untouched in front of me, my mind running through the
Blood and Bones Aftermath
The house didn’t feel like mine anymore once the gunfire stopped.Declan’s men moved through the estate with brisk, practiced efficiency, zip-tying the guards who were still breathing, calling for a cleanup crew, sweeping every room for anything the Ghost might have left behind. I stood in the middle of the foyer, blood — not mine — drying on my knuckles, and tried to remember how to breathe like a person who hadn’t just watched her home turned into a battlefield.“Sera.” Declan’s hand found my shoulder, gentler than it had any right to be given the last ten minutes. “You’re not hurt?”“No.” My voice came out steadier than I felt, which seemed to be the theme of the night. “Not physically.”His jaw ticked — that same tell from the car, except now I understood exactly what it meant. He was furious, and not at me. He crouched down beside Marco, who one of the medics was already working on, pressing gauze against the wound in his shoulder with quick, competent hands.“He’ll live,” the me
