Ha. More like surveilling her.
I could see from the tension in Aela’s face, the rigidity of her posture, that she didn’t believe that either. She knew a pig always stank, and it didn’t matter if it looked like they were on your side or not—they never were.
She did us proud as she demanded, “Why? What do you think I know?”
Seamus, his gaze whipping between the two women, questioned, “Mom? What’s going on? Why is Caro here?”
“She’s not here to babysit you, butt face,” Aela replied calmly, but her gaze was stony as she stared at Dunbar.
“She worked her way in as a babysitter?” Conor hissed. “Well, that’s a new low.”
He wasn’t wrong.
“I’m here to help,” Dunbar insisted, her arms spreading wide with entreaty. &

CONORIF I HAD any more programs running on my laptop, I figured the RAM on it would send it flying into outer space.It was already throbbing like a motherfucker on my lap, and I might as well have invited the Sahara to come and bake my balls.Did my brothers give a fuck, though, as they breathed down my neck, trying to get information out of me?A big fat fucking no.They didn’t give a crap about the fact I probably wouldn’t be able to have kids after this clusterfuck.And it wasn’t only my brothers’ fault that the future Mrs. Conor O’Donnelly was going to have to visit a sperm bank to get her some baby Conors. Nope, it w

DECLAN“AELA.”A sharp intake of air was my first clue that she recognized my voice, and to be completely frank, I didn’t recognize my fucking voice, so how the hell she did was a miracle.Still, I wasn’t about to question a miracle, not when this entire situation felt very miraculous.Like I was in the middle of a very lucid dream that I wasn’t sure I wanted to wake up from.The cardiac arrest, the feeling like death warmed over, sure, that could be a nightmare. I’d be very happy to wake up from that and not have to piss in a bag, but the stuff with Aela? With Seamus? I was glad that was happening.Life changing, and in a way that was positive. In a way that was usually anathema of how lives changed in my world.“Declan?”

AELAAFTER DECLAN’S call in the early hours of the morning, where he’d laid down the law, it wasn’t a surprise to open the door and find Conor and Brennan there. But welcoming them in felt odd.Like I was conceding defeat on a battle that had yet to be fought.Of course, I had enough battles going down around me, so I needed to pick which ones to fight.My house was a crime scene. There was yellow tape around it, and my bedroom was being processed by forensics, so I’d grabbed all the stuff Seamus and I had been packing with the intention of taking it to New York with us, and had checked us into a hotel instead.How they’d known ab

DECLANBEFOREEIGHT WEEKS laterADRENALINE WAS BURSTING THROUGH ME, making me feel a little light-headed, a lot shaky.Which, of course, made me feel like a pussy.This was my first kill. I knew Aidan and Brennan had killed someone when they were a lot younger than this, and I had no real idea why Da had cut me as much slack as he had, but I was grateful for it.Because I was going to puke.I knew it.I was going to shame Da and my brothers by puking over a dead man.A man who’d betrayed us.A man who’d

AELANOWDECLAN’S PLACE was nothing like I imagined.In fact, it was the opposite.It was… Japanese.Considering the family was borderline psychotic with their patriotism, both for the motherland and the States, that he’d gone for a very Asian influence clued me into the fact that Declan had opened himself up to the world.Hell, I bet he even ate ramen on Sundays, not just roasted meat with two veg.My lips quirked at the thought, even as I took a seat on the futon. Yep, that was the extent to this Japanese fusion Declan had going on.The dining table was low to the

DECLANTHE DAYS after my arrival at home, I slept a lot.More than I’d like.I moved from the sofa to the bed and back again, trudging like a zombie from one to another.As I pulled my best Walking Dead impression, an impression that would usually impress only my bonsai tree unless Ma barged her way in with Da at her back blustering over how I made her worry, and a few of my brothers trickling in through the day to make sure I was on the mend, they were there.Constantly.Maybe it was stupid of me not to anticipate that, but it came as a severe shock.What stunned the hell out of me even more?&nb

DECLANSHE WAS GOING to hate me.I didn’t blame her. Couldn’t, really.None of this was her fault. It was all mine. All because of pride.All because of my coveting something.Two sins, but I lived my life with sins darkening every aspect of it. I didn’t care about my immortal soul. Hadn’t since she’d walked out of my world.Pussy.I let the word flip through my mind, but it didn’t anger me.There was no point in getting mad about the truth.Holding out my hand for her to take, I watched her eye my fingers like they were five snakes skewered onto

AELAIF THERE WAS anything he could have said that would blow me away, it was that.‘I’d just lost you and stopped giving a shit about most things.’I mean, everything about this afternoon blew me away. From the fact he had several lost classics tucked inside his wall, to how I’d rubbed one off on him against the frickin’ door.I mean, the man was ill. Ill! I’d ridden him like a damn pony, but…Inwardly, I sighed.My trouble was I liked ‘naughty’.I more than liked it.It was exciting. He’d always excited me. I knew it was weird, knew it was a bit of sickness considering what he did for a living, but I’d never been frightened. The danger junkie in me enjoyed it… Okay, so my morals were questionable.&n
