Daddy’s Good Girl
“When this is over, when we've dealt with Thomas and Delilah and whoever the hell ordered that hit on us, you can retire. No more missions, find someone, settle the fuck down and just live, Nico.”
Nico was quiet for so long I thought he might have fallen asleep. Then he said,
"There might be someone."
I raised an eyebrow, immediately wincing at the movement. "Yeah?"
"Maybe."
"Who is she?"
"It's not a she."
I laughed. "Liar."
A small smile tugged at Nico's mouth. "Okay, fine. It's a she. But it's complicated."
"It always is."
"She's young. Smart as hell. Impulsive. Stubborn."
