“And who the fuck is that? Can’t be the police, they don’t dare show up here…” Esposito murmured. “One of Luis’s? A woman?” He pulled out his gun and raised it slightly. “Hey, Angelo, take the boys. Check that car out.”

As four goons all pulled out their guns, an abyss was spreading under Channing’s feet.

Not now. Not now, goddamn it!

Panic gripped him and he shoved it down, commanding himself to get it together and think.

He had to keep them away from her. He needed her to leave.

“No!” He waved with Daniel Esposito’s gun. “Stay back. Let me go and check.”

“Stay back?” Leo frowned. “What is this? You don’t have to be a hero. We have an army to protect you. Come on, guys. Go.”

Fucking hell. The men pulled out their guns and walked towards Ella.

Channing hurried and stood before them, blocking their way. “I said no.”

Leo’s teeth glinted as he bared them. “You don’t say no to my orders. And you don’t fool me. Let’s go, Angelo.”

He marched past Channing, shoving him in the shoulder. He raised his gun and pointed it straight at Ella. Channing chased him and stood between Leo and Ella. He must be losing his mind.

I’ll do anything to stop Ragnarök… I’ll do anything for a chance of us…

His promise crawled under his skin, spilling a feverish ache into his muscles.

Anything…

Leo’s snarl fell, he paled, and a muscle under his eye twitched. “Get out of my way.”

“This may be dangerous for you,” Channing said.

The car door behind him opened and closed and snow crunched rhythmically as Ella walked towards them.

No.

His anger gone, Leo was watching her from behind Channing with curiosity.

Channing closed his eyes for a moment and let his chin fall onto his chest. He needed to calm down and be on top of his game. He had to protect her, no matter what. If Leo found out that she was a cop… They’d kill Channing and then they’d kill her.

And her family.

He turned to her. She was beaming the brightest smile. Her blond hair was tied into a knot behind her head.

“Hi there!” She waved her hand. “Sorry to butt in on you like that.”

Leo and his goons watched her with glossed-over eyes. She wove her fingers into Channing’s, connecting their hands, and planted a kiss on his cheek.

“I’m Ella. Channing’s fiancée.”

No!

Leo’s eyebrows crawled up to his hairline. “Fiancée, huh? Well. It’s a pleasure. I’m Leo.” He put his gun away and stretched his hand out to her, flashing a charming smile. “Channing’s father.”

Fucking hell!

Ella’s eyebrows crawled up to her hairline as she grasped his hand and shook it in return automatically. She blinked and shot a glance at Channing, a glance full of daggers. She might think this was just a cover he’d come up with. What would she think if he told her this was the truth? That he was Mafia by blood.

“Nice to meet you. Sorry. I was worried about him and was looking for him.”

“How did you find him?” asked Leo.
