Chapter Eleven

Killian was bone tired by the time the Creed Security team extracted him from the black site. However, when he heard what happened at the office, he demanded to be sent back to New York City. He would have swum across the ocean if that was faster, but thankfully Sebastian had anticipated his reaction and had his private jet on standby.

Despite the luxurious cabin of the plane, Killian couldn’t sleep a wink. His inner wolf was anxious and pacing back and forth. It needed Luna—to know she was okay. Hell, he just needed her. His blood ran cold each time he thought of what could have happened to them all in his absence. His mind also raced trying to figure out who would hurt Luna. He vowed that he would find out and stop those sonsabitches.

Sleep continued to escape him, though he did drift off for a few minutes here and there. As soon as the plane landed in New York, he raced back to the city.

“She’s in the guest room,” Meredith said as he entered the loft. His sister was in front of the TV, watching some reality show about housewives.

“Thanks,” he called. “And put a damn security system in your apartment!”

“I am the security system,” Meredith retorted.

He stalked down the hallway to Luna’s bedroom, flinging the door open. She was curled up in bed, a book in her lap. She startled, but when she saw him in the doorway, she tossed the book aside and hopped off the bed, running to him.

“Killian,” she whispered as he swept her up into his arms. Her skin was blotchy and eyes red from crying.

“Sweetheart,” he said, the knot in his chest finally loosening. The wolf calmed down too as soon as Luna’s cinnamon scent hit his nose. His hand went to her stomach possessively while his other hand dug into her hair and pulled her head back so he could kiss her. She tasted sweet and her lips made his head swim. The thought that he could have lost her made anger creep back into his veins.

“Goddammit,” he cursed, and he tightened his grip. “I’m going to kill them. I’m going to find whoever’s doing this to you and I’m going to kill them all.”

“Killian, please,” she said. “Don’t do anything rash.”

“Rash?” he roared. “I’m not going to stand here and do nothing. They can’t hurt what’s mine and get away with it.”

“Getting yourself killed won’t do any good. Just calm down and we’ll go to the police.”

“The cops? Are you kidding me?” he asked, raising his voice. “The NYPD won’t be able to do anything about this. We have to take matters into our own hands.”

“Are you a vigilante now?”

“This is about protecting you, sweetheart,” he countered. “Now, grab your things. We’re gonna head to my place. I’ll have a security system in place by tonight.”

“Killian—”

“And you’re gonna stay there until we find out who’s out to get you.”

“Killian—”

“You’re going to quit your job at the gallery.”

“Killian, listen to me!” she yelled, pushing her palms hard against his chest.
