“Come on, you little flirt,” Brody rumbled, a smirk on his face as he came over, pulled her off and lifted her up into his arms. With his face close to his daughter’s pouty one, Brody said, “What did Daddy tell you about mauling people for kisses?”

“But I likes him!” she wailed, blinking like she was on the verge of tears. “I wants to keep him!”

Muffling a laugh under his breath, Brody gentled his voice. “Cianna, baby, he’s not a toy for you to keep. Now stop it with the crocodile tears and give your old man some goodbye squishes.”

“Yes, Daddy,” she whispered, as she threw her arms around Brody’s neck and hugged him tight.

“You gonna be a good girl and help take care of Nana?” he asked, nuzzling her curls.

She nodded as she lifted her head, but her lower lip started to tremble. “Whens you come back?”

“I’ll come see you tomorrow, baby girl. And Mommy’s going to be here to stay with you when she gets back from taking Jack over to visit with her friend Rachel. Okay?”

She nodded, and Brody lowered her back to the ground. As soon as her little feet touched the grass, she ran over to Cian and hugged his leg again. He figured he knew exactly what the Grinch felt like at the end of that holiday movie, because his damn chest was feeling all mushy and big.

As soon as he and Brody were back in the truck and reversing out of the drive, he waved to Cianna one more time, and said, “She’s adorable, man.” His chest shook with a low laugh as he turned his head and looked at Brody. “You know you’re gonna have your hands full when she’s older, right? Boys’ll be lining up from Shadow Peak all the way down to the Alley, wanting to ask her out.”

“They can try,” he muttered, flicking his signal on as they neared the next corner. “But if they’re smart, they’ll stay the hell away from her.”

They had the windows down, letting in the fresh air, and Cian braced his arm along the top of the door. “How old is Jack?”

“Two months.” Brody slid him a rueful grin, then looked back at the road. “Between the two of ’em, I’m already going gray. But Mic wants to have a few more, so I figure the more the merrier.”

He shook his head and grinned. “It’s crazy to think of you having a family, but I’m happy for you, man. I always knew you’d be great at it.”

Brody grunted in response, and they sat in silence for a mile or so, until the Runner made a rough, frustrated sound in the back of his throat and smacked the top of the steering wheel with his hand. “I want to be able to forgive you, Cian. But you pissed me off.” Keeping his narrowed eyes on the road, Brody went on. “I’ve spent years feeling guilty as hell for not realizing you were going to bail on Sayre and everyone else.
