“The shooters who came for my parents. The accountants who moved his blood money. The officers he bought. Some fell in line for us. Some ended up in shallow graves. Every time I cut another string, he felt it. The explosion was his shot at tipping the table. It was mine too. My unit wrote me off. Burdock buried me. And I used it. I used being dead.” He looked at me then, eyes raw. “I’ve been living in the gray between governments and criminals for so long I forgot there was still a part of my life that didn’t sign up for this. That was you. And instead of leaving you all the way out, I dragged your name into the game because it was the one thing I knew would make Carlos listen long enough fo

Cormac signed to himself but said, “No, there are no skeletons in my closet.” Sam lunged at Cormac and punched him hard. Cormac just accepted the blow passively, and blood seeped from the corner of his mouth. “Sam, calm down.” Brendan intervened. “Mr. Brighthall, I’m sorry for this. It’s up to you if you want to kill or torture me,” said Cormac. “So you would rather die than reveal anything.” “Yes,” replied Cormac with a smile. Brendan clearly understood that it had been meaningless for him to come here. Perhaps he was here just to see Cormac and give him one last chance.

“ I am not some frail toys that will break in a fight I can…“ Her father raised his hand she never got to finish her sentence because he interrupted her. “ you have no power to speak of.

No matter how different you are you’re still one of the cauldron born and we cannot afford anything happening to you.” “M’Lord.” Interrupted Connor her father’s chief guard “ The lady was the only one who manage to kill one of the creatures.“ Cernunnous looked down at Connor “ is that so… Make sure it’s brought to the

"If the Order only exists to put out world-ending catastrophes, it’s not an order at all—it's just a militia waiting for the next disaster. Peace isn't the absence of an ancient entity eating our souls. It’s having the time and the patience to help two old men agree on who gets to harvest the russets." "She’s right," Cormac said, glancing down at me with that slow, crooked grin of his that had always made the ground feel entirely solid beneath my feet. "No black granite altars. No hollow courtyards. No voices crawling out of the woodwork wearing our dead relatives' faces. Just two horses, an unpaved road, and an argument about fruit trees." "When do we leave?" I asked, leaning into his side.

“Havoc wants you.” Darcie nodded once. Taking off at a trot, she headed back to her man and the woman he called grandmother. I followed her more slowly. I wanted to make sure Maggie was ok as well. She had been good to me, shown me more kindness than I had experienced in years. When she lay bleeding and limp in my arms, I thought I had lost her. I was tired of losing people I cared for. Keeping my eyes lowered, I pushed past Cyber. I didn't want to touch him but I had no choice with the way he filled the doorway.

She sounded different, and he was quick to pick up on it. "He does, and they've been doing their job. It's the stress I guess. I want to get out of here, Charlotte. I need to be out, to take care of my daughter. But it looks like Seamus is taking care of you." Cormac Sullivan has always been good at reading people, and he excels at reading his daughter. Something was going on between her and Seamus and he was not sure how to react to it. He knew that Seamus Braddock was a player, but deep down Cormac also knew that Seamus was a good man just like his dad.

I feel my hands sweating with nervousness. I can hear the cars stopping in front of the house. Slowly I walk to the wall-size windows, and I peak out. I am curious to see my future dear husband. One thing is for sure. He should sleep with one eye open because I might kill him in his sleep and become a black widow. I have no problem with that. I close my eyes, shaking my head. I think my books have a bad influence on me. This would be a good plot. I make a mental note to write that story. A mafia story. Who knows. It might even be a best-selling story.

But then, even though my resentment towards the man was rude, I still couldn’t help but be happy for him. I may be a little out of place, but I ignored that. The nuns here are kind, so as the children. I just don’t know why I can’t socialize with them. Maybe, it’s about the truth. The fact that Cormac isn’t really a Carter makes me even sadder. “I am glad that they are at home. . .” Cormac continued. “The anniversary’s coming. Do you have a plan yet?” Throughout lunch, I could not even dare to speak. I don’t know how to feel because of what I found out.

“We will.” We read until the light thinned and the candles guttered. At some point Cormac’s footsteps sounded in the corridor and he came in with news: the trader had been seen in a market two days’ ride east; a caravan had taken him north the day after. Names were vague, but enough to start following. “Be careful,” Cormac said, looking at me with a softness that surprised me. “If someone is planting bait, they know how to make it look like truth.”

- The words poured out of me like fire, burning me up from the inside. "She was 19—she was only 19! She'd just graduated high school. She had everything ahead of her. She was kind—so stupidly kind. Out there, 16 thousand feet up in Deadman's Hollow, she was starving and shaking, but she still gave her last granola bar to Ken when he said he was hungry!
