Chapter 13

Cormac

Once Aileen is secured and I know she’s in good hands, I take off after Nolan. His blond hair glints in the moonlight, and it’s the only way I know where the hell he’s going. He’s faster than I am.

“Nolan!”

He doesn’t respond, but I can hear him racing ahead of me, and another set of footsteps in front of him. Who the hell did he see? He shouts something, there’s a crash, then a decidedly feminine scream. I almost trip on a tangle of limbs.

I stop short in surprise. Nolan’s got someone in his grasp, but I can’t see a damn thing. I pull out my phone and slide the flashlight on. The beam falls on Nolan wrestling a disheveled, furious redhead.

“Get it outta my fuckin’ eye,” Nolan growls at me. I swing the beam away so it doesn’t blind him. If it were a man he held, he’d subdue him in no time, but he won’t use his fists or vicious force on a woman.

“You need help?” I ask, standing to the side.

“No,” he snaps. “I’ve got this one.”

“Let me go, or I’ll call the police!” she howls, wriggling fruitlessly in his grasp. “I’ll scream!”

He gets to his feet, and holds the woman to his chest, his arms like a straightjacket around her.

“Go ahead,” he says with nonchalance. “Explain to the police how you trespassed on my property, will you?’

She huffs out in indignation.

“I’ll tell them how you abused me!”

“Abused you?” he says, with the bored drawl of someone waking from a nap. “Go ahead, lass. I’ve got my brother as witness.”

“I’ll—I’ll—”

“Make another threat and leave here with your knickers around yer ankles and yer ass reddened? Aye.”

“How dare you threaten me!”

“You’re the one issuing threats, doll,” he says evenly. “I’m only tellin’ you how this’ll go.”

He’s walking her back toward the house. Dragging her, more like. I keep the light trained on the ground in front of him.

“You want me to call in anyone at all? Keenan?”

“Oh, no,” Nolan says, and if I’m not mistaken, he’s taking immense pleasure in overpowering the woman. “I’ll see to her on my own, and will fill you in in the morning. You’ve a wife to see to, Keenan’s got his own family. Little miss nosy and I will have a bit of a chat then she’ll be on her way.”

“We will not,” she says.

“Aye,” he says cheerfully. “But we will.”

It finally dawns on me who she could be, the reporter he mentioned to Keenan that night in the club. “She the reporter?”

“Oh, aye,” Nolan says when we reach the steps.

“Just doing my job,” she says to me. “Tell him to let me go.”

“Ah, no. Sorry ‘bout that,” I say. “Can’t do that.”

I can’t see her in the poor light, save the masses of red hair.

“Aye, lass,” he says. “And I’m just doing mine.”

I open the front door and he drags her in. Several uniformed servants stand nearby, but no one even looks their way. They’re used to us bringing folks in, and they’re paid well to mind their own business.
