Once I finish my breakfast, I make quick work of the dishes and clean up the kitchen. All the while listening to Mac, Ronan, and Harper make light-hearted conversation. I can’t wipe the stupid grin off my face, and she didn’t even spend last night with me, for fuck sake. In all of the years we’ve lived here, I don’t think this apartment has ever felt as bright as it does this morning.

And it’s all thanks to her.

I mindlessly move through the motions of putting everything away where it belongs. When the three of them are finished eating, I clear their plates and load them into the dishwasher before pouring myself another much-needed cup of coffee. I didn’t even have the energy to throw on a suit this morning, which is saying a lot coming from me. Not only did I lay awake most of the night listening to Ronan and Harper fuck each other’s brains out, but Ronan proceeded to burst into my room at the ass-crack of dawn. I wanted to throw a pillow at his smug face when he told me to meet him and Mac in the kitchen but I knew it must have been something important if it was worth him leaving a naked Harper in his room.

Once Mac and I strolled into the kitchen, Ronan filled us in on Liam’s impromptu visit while we were at Kings. As Ronan explained everything, I watched his relaxed demeanor slowly slip away, and his usual state of rage took its place. That is until he saw Harper again.

Every time I looked at Mac, I could tell he was biting his tongue, trying not to scream, “I fucking knew it!” Mac has never wanted this life. Liam realized quickly that Mac was a force to be reckoned with. Mac is faster and stronger than the rest of us, and Liam knew it. It’s why he trained him to be the kind of killer he is. However, sometimes I wonder if it was only to teach Mac a lesson. It was clear that he often despised Mac’s nurturing and caring nature. Liam saw it as Mac’s biggest weakness.

“Don’t be so fucking soft, Cormac.” I heard Liam bark at him on more than one occasion. Which is why, as years passed, Liam pushed and pushed Mac until he became the man he is. One our enemies fear. He hates his father for forcing him to be someone he doesn’t want to be, someone he despises.

I’ve had a more challenging time straightening out my feelings for Liam. I know he’s not a good person. Hell, none of us are. But the older I’ve gotten, the more I’ve realized just how much Liam McDermott lacks even the smallest conscience. His only goal is to get ahead and take out anyone who steps in his way.

Anyone… even Harper.

The thought of him hurting her makes my blood boil. Yet, I still can’t shake the feeling that I must obey him. I owe him. Don’t I?

He and Emma saved my life when I had nothing.
