Devlin

The shock is like a punch to the guts. This same face has been staring out at me from the pin board at the office. And now here he is standing before me.

Marty Dalton, one half of the notorious Dalton brothers. The most elusive criminal family in Kings County.

We know they’re responsible for bringing most of the drugs into the county, but we’ve never been able to pin anything on them. They’re slippery as fuck and smart, with an excellent lawyer.

Instinctively I reach for my belt, but I haven’t got my gun on me.

My gaze goes to Kylie, who looks wide-eyed and shocked but not terrified. Not like he’s broken in.

“What’s going on?”

Marty smiles, a hard smile that doesn’t reach his eyes. “You must be Kylie’s new boyfriend.”

I note the way he knows her name and I hate the way it sounds coming out of his mouth, hard and mean.

“What are you doing here?”

“I was just visiting an old friend. But I’ll be on my way now.” He goes to pass me, but I put my arm up on the door frame, blocking the way.

I’d love to arrest him for all the lives he’s destroyed. Throw him in a cell and lock away the key.

We’ve had a team working on this for months, piecing together enough evidence to take the whole family down for good. We’re this close. And now he’s here before me in Kylie’s kitchen.

My blood turns hot, and a vein in my neck starts to pulse.

“You know this guy?”

I look to Kylie, and she gives me a small nod.

“He’s dating my sister.”

The wind goes out of me. Kylie’s associated with the Dalton family. The woman I’ve been dreaming about for the past two weeks has connection with the Daltons.

I double over with shock, and Marty slips past me.

“I’ll leave you two to your dinner.” He pats me on the back as he goes past. “You’re in for a treat with that bolognaise.”

I watch him go down the steps and get into a dark tinted car parked on the road. I make a mental note of the license plate number, but I expect it will turn out clean.

When I turn back to Kylie, she’s biting her nails.

I’m furious. He was this close, and there was nothing I could do about it. And I can’t believe Kylie is associated with that family.

“Do you want to start talking and tell me what the hell’s going on?”
