âI feel like a fucking mummy.â
âWell, ya look like one too, so unless you got a hot date, shut the fuck up and sit down.â
âRose,â I whine, sounding like a child, but I must look shocking. Call me vain, but yeah, here we are. My face is bandaged up with old Irish healing herb poultices to bring down the swelling. Itâs working, and the pain isnât as unbearable, but two days later, I could really do with just being a hundred percent fixed up and back to work. Working from home has never been my thing. Although the lack of company appeals to me, I feel I have a lack of motivation. Home is home. Work is work.
âSit,â she commands, and I do as she says, grateful when there is a knock at the door.
My heart leaps into my throat as I sit up straighter. âRue,â I murmur. Please let it be Rue. There is absolutely no way I can allow myself to hope it is Serena standing on the other side of the door.
Rising to answer it, I stall halfway, hovering over the sofa, when Rose yells, âSit yer fecking arse down, you fecking stubborn cunt. Iâve got it.â
Holding my hands up in surrender, I plant my ass back down, turning to face the front door with bated breath.
âOh, itâs you. Come on in, I guess.â
Frowning, I see itâs Guy. Iâm not sure how I feel about him right now. His action got my ass handed to me by the uncle of the woman Iâm falling in love with. Ignoring the enormity of that wayward thought, I sit back and fold my arms over my chest when he lets out a loud guffaw at the sight of me.
âWhy did you let him in?â I complain to Rose. âAnd why are you even here?â
âYouâve not been answering my messages.â
âBeen kind of busy not being able to see.â
âWhat happened?â
âA lot. But none of it is important. What have you got for me?â
âA lot. Can we go upstairs?â
The drop in his volume gets me to my feet. âSorry, Rose, Iâm taking this off for now. You can wrap me up again later.â
Pulling the bandages off and leaving them on the coffee table in an herbal-smelling heap, I lead Guy upstairs. My sight is much better, but Iâm still struggling to focus on small words like text messages.
Turning to face him, his wince does nothing to assure me I look any better, even though I know I do. I was an absolute mess a few days ago.
My ribs ache from the trek up the stairs, making it look like Iâm in no pain, so I fold my arms over my abdomen, gripping the side of my white tee for support.
Guy lowers his voice even more than before. âItâs big. They found him.â
It takes me a second to register what he said before the blood rushes to my head, making it swim in a tumultuous whirlpool of nauseating emotion. âWhat?â
He nods. âYou look like you need to sit.
