***

Ethan was used to being inside an interrogation room. Over the years, he’d gotten plenty of interrogation experience. So he sat back and made himself comfortable as he waited. He glanced at his hands. His knuckles were red. Scratched. And he still smelled like fire and ash.

My club…destroyed.

But it had just been a building. Wood, bricks, and mirrors. Reflections could be replaced. If something had happened to Carly, if she’d been hurt—there would have been no replacing her.

The door opened. Agent Victor Fucking Monroe stood there. The guy looked cocky and arrogant. That wouldn’t last long.

Ethan just lifted a brow as the other man approached him and sat down at the little table in the room.

“For someone who just committed a major screw-up,” Victor drawled. “You don’t look particularly concerned.” He tilted his head to the side. “No lawyer?”

“Sophie is in D.C. If I need her, she’ll be here immediately.” But he didn’t think he needed Sophie Sarantos, not just yet. He also didn’t want to pull her into this mess, not until he figured out exactly what was happening. He and Sophie had been friends since they were kids, but the woman was happy now. All snug and in domestic bliss with her fierce bastard of a lover. While Ethan didn’t always like the guy, he respected the hell out of Lex Jensen. Lex was fanatical about Sophie’s safety, so if Victor called in his lawyer and Sophie came to New York, he knew that Lex would be in tow, too.

“Oh, I think you’ll need her,” Victor said. He touched his lip. Yeah, it was busted. So what? “You assaulted a federal officer, and I got about ten witnesses who say you also assaulted Curtis Thatch, when all the guy did was say he was a doctor who wanted to help.”

Ethan laughed. “I don’t believe in coincidences. They just don’t happen.”

A furrow appeared between Victor’s eyebrows.

Did he really have to break this shit down? Fine. “My place explodes, and just who happens to be standing outside my door? Curtis Thatch. Standing there, just waiting for us to run right out after Dr. Nelson calls with his desperate warning…”

“We’re still trying to locate Nelson,” Victor said. “I’ve got techs trying to track his phone.”

“Good for you,” Ethan murmured.

Victor’s blue eyes narrowed.

“Coincidences,” Ethan continued, giving a shake of his head. “No, it wasn’t by chance that Curtis was out there. He was waiting for us. Maybe he planted the bomb and he wanted to see for himself when Carly and I both were blown to hell. Maybe he’s one of those hands-on types.” He shrugged. “You’re the FBI agent. You figure that crap out.”

Victor leaned toward him. “You’re right. I am the FBI agent. And I’ve definitely figured out one thing in particular. You’re dangerous. Unstable. You can’t be trusted to keep Carly Shay safe, and I think you’re a threat to everyone you meet.”

Which meant the guy wasn’t going to let him walk out of that building anytime soon.

Unless…

“Coincidences,” Ethan murmured.
