âArenât I supposed to be the reckless one?â
I look over to where Tennant is leaning against the doorframe, watching me dress. âWorried about me, Ten?â
He scoffs. âDefinitely not. I just donât want to drag your stupid ass out of the meeting when you get yourself killed. Plus, someone will have to tell your kid, and I donât trust anyone else to do it.â
âDonât tell me youâre scared of a fifteen-year-old,â I tease, as I shrug into my jacket.
âScared? No. But I know how lethal he is, and I would rather not end up in his crosshairs.â
âFair enough. But you donât have to worry. Nothing is going to happen.â
Tennant doesnât reply, but he falls into step behind me as I leave the closet and make my way to the bedroom door.
It takes effort to keep my steps measured and not let him know that every movement pulls at my stitches. For all his denial, I know thereâs some attachment to me. Deep, deep inside his fucked-up head.
The car is waiting for us out front, and so is Roman.
âGo back inside.â
My son raises his chin. âNo. Iâm going with you.â
âRomanââ
âI wonât get out of the car,â he says. âBut I wonât stay here and worry either. Every time you leave something bad happens.â
Shit. As much as I want to, I canât tell him no. Heâs not wrong to worry considering everything thatâs happened the past few weeks.
âFine, but you are to stay in the car. No one can know youâre with us.â
He nods and slides into the back seat. I can feel Tennantâs measured gaze, but I donât look at him.
I take the seat next to Roman while Tennant slides in opposite us. âThat a new suit, Roman?â
I shoot Tennant a look, but he just smirks and relaxes back into the seat.
âOne of them,â Roman replies. âFigured it was fitting to wear it now.â
Tennant nods in approval. I tune them out, exhaustion hitting all of a sudden. I donât want to deal with this. Iâm the Boss, the one who makes the hard decisions, and Iâm very good at my job. Except this is one decision I wish I never had to make.
