Chapter Thirteen

Belfast

Once Georgia, Nash and Zoe settle down and talk calmly for a spell, it doesn’t take them long to figure out we’ve all been chasing our tails.

After breaking into his house and putting a gun to the back of his head while he was having sex with his wife, I now find myself with the surreal experience of standing in Nash Garrison’s kitchen exchanging pleasantries.

It’s definitely been a strange morning. And one I don’t care to repeat any time soon.

“By the way, I owe you for putting the boots to me—and we will settle up one day.” He glances side-eye at me. “I can promise you that.”

It’s obvious he’s still furious, despite the fact that we’re all trying to play in the same sandbox now. Way to hold a grudge, Nash.

“Relax, honey,” Zoe cautions.

I smirk. “Yeah, hun, relax. It’d be a damn shame to get your ass kicked again so soon.”

“Thank you,” Zoe steps in between us, “for taking care of Georgia.”

“Believe me, Georgie can take care of herself.”

She smiles at me for the first time. “I know that, but I can see she means a lot to you.”

“A lot?” I can't help but laugh. “I’d murder my way through this city, killing every man, woman, and child in it, just so I could exhale my last breath at her side.”

“That’s because you’re a criminal with no morals,” Nash rudely interrupts our quiet moment of conversation, “and murdering comes easy to people like you.”

“Keep talking shit, Garrison, and give me a reason to get started right here.”

“Can I talk to you?” Georgia grabs my hand and leads me into the living room.

“Are you okay with all of this?” She’s worried.

“Which part?” I chuckle and pull her into my arms to allay her fears.

Her arms wrap around my waist. “Are we wrong for trusting them?”

“No, Nash seems legit.” I pick her chin up gently and kiss her bowed lips. “And if things do go sideways, luv, I promise you we’ll be the only ones walking out of this apartment.”

The door buzzer in the front lobby cracks over a speaker by the door, interrupting us all.

“That’ll be Mikey.” I stop Nash from answering the call. “It’d probably be best if I do the talking where Mikey is concerned. He doesn’t like strangers. Or most people in general.”

“Fine, you get it then.” Nash is pissed. “But Sam better be with him and he better be okay.”

He just can’t help himself can he?

Georgia and I exchange a harsh look as I step over and buzz Mikey into the building. Things are about to get tense, again. Or should I say more tense considering how thick the air feels right now?

Two minutes pass before they walk into the apartment.

“Mikey.” I step aside to let him in.

“Brennan.” He walks by pulling a still restrained and hooded Agent Beck along behind him.

“What the fuck?” Nash shouts at me.

“Oh c’mon, Georgia, take that off.” Zoe isn’t happy about it either.

“Relax, he’s fine.” I pull the hood up and off Sam’s head.
