Chapter Eight

graph-definition>

Bruce let himself into his cramped, dirty little apartment and promptly relocked the door. Contrary to his brother's perceptions, he wasn't an idiot. He had to be careful and on the lookout— for himself and Bryan.

He hated the apartment, but it suited his disguise as one of the more impoverished denizens. He was able to stay close, keeping tabs on his women and on his brother. God understood his concern where Bryan was concerned.

But Bryan wouldn't.

No way was he going to leave his brother's back unprotected. Sure, someone had gotten to him. It happened to the best of them. But he wasn't helpless— not by a long shot.

Bryan wouldn't accept that. He was a protector by nature, as pure in his motives as Bruce could ever be. Not that he'd ever acknowledge any heroic, protective tendencies. Bryan preferred to see himself as the black sheep in a family of snowy white lambs.

Bruce laughed quietly to himself. His brother was really something else. Something good.

And Shay. He shook his head. She had Bryan going in circles, and when it all came out in the end, he had no doubt that Bryan would blow his stack. He just hoped Shay had enough fortitude to carry through on her mission.

Yes, he knew her. Not personally, but he'd followed her work in the papers, admired her from afar. She was a remarkable, very giving person, and she'd gotten a bum rap in a situation that wasn't her fault.

Unfortunately, once the media labeled you, no one retrenched. It didn't matter what information was later presented; the ugliest slant was the one that stuck, because it sold the most papers.

Bruce wished her luck, especially now that her newest mission in life seemed to be loving his brother.

For once, the lumpy, smelly bed didn't bother Bruce as he stretched out, already busy formulating plans. He'd protect Bryan the best he could, but he'd also try to protect Shay. She didn't know Bryan the way he did, and she didn't know about Megan and the effect she'd had on someone as proud as Bryan. It all factored in.

The Crown Princess had her work cut out for her this time. But with God's help, and Bruce's interference, his brother would find a "happily ever after" in the end. Bruce would see to it.
