Chapter Seven
I looked at the outside of the worn-down mechanics shop. The sign was in French, itâs swirling font almost too elegant for such a manly shopfront. And for the horror that went on behind its rusting roller door.
Iâd never seen the outside of the shop, only the basement where Hope had been held, and the top of the stairs where Luc decapitated the door guard. My heart thundered in my chest. I didnât want to go in, but it wasnât a rational emotion. There was no one in there. The doors were covered in police tape, Hope was safe home in Manhattan, and I was surrounded by some of the meanest beings to ever walk the mortal plane. But PTSD wasn't a rational beast.
âWeâll split up, just in case someone has decided to come back to visit their old haunts. Rouen is with me,â Naz said, his eyes covered with dark shades. His hangover must be a real bitch. I bit my lip so I didnât grin.
Obviously, Rouen was with him. Heâd have to pry Romanus off my ass with a crowbar. I had my swords crisscrossed in a double holster over my back, and I stroked the chest strap. It was so beautiful.
âWeâll take the back,â Romanus said, stepping in front of me and assuming the lead. I could tell he didn't like leaving my back unprotected by the stiff way he held his head, trying to keep his eyes on what was in front of him, but an ear for sneak attacks at the rear. He seemed to be feeling the loss of Rouen in our little ménage.
He halted us at the padlocked backdoor, listening for Naz and Rouenâs confirmation that they were in position.
I drew my sword and held it loosely at my side. It was perfectly balanced to my hand, and I wondered again how they could get it so right without having me there with the swordsmith. Romanus raised a brow at me, probably because I was making goo goo eyes at my swords. He must have guessed my thoughts. âHe makes them himself.â
âWhat?â
âRouen. He makes the blades himself. I helped him source the material for the hilt, but the blade is all him.â
I shook my head at the impossibility of the statement. The swords must have taken days to create, let alone all the fancy swirls and decoration.
âNot impossible when you have superhuman strength and claws that can pierce medieval armor like a tin can. He saw the swords on your wall and wanted to make you a set. He knows how you hold yourself, how you move, your grip, just from watching you do day to day things. Heâs pretty good at the art, even though weâve no need for swords personally.â He gave a soft smile, one I realized was almost exclusively reserved for the other gargoyle. âHeâs a little taken with you.â
I let out an embarrassed laugh, my cheeks reddening. I was a little smitten with Rouen, too.
âIn position.â Nazâs voice came over the comm.
