“Which is also probably the quickest way to lose it, because Dawn will hate everything about it.”

“She’ll be okay, Ice.”

“I’m not so sure,” I murmur.

“I am.”

“How?”I ask, hoping he can convince me.

“Because she has you and you will be there to pick up the pieces.”

“You have a lot of faith in me, Liam,” I mutter with a sad, exhausted sigh.

“All the faith in the world, Ellie.All the faith in the world.”

He kisses the top of my head and I close my eyes feeling secure and loved.Liam and I have a lot to work out, but right now I feel nothing but hope and happiness when it comes to the two of us.

I pray that Dawn gets that feeling one day.I really want that for her.

“Hey, Ice.”

“You don’t look like you’ve had a good day, honey.”

I slide onto the barstool, thinking her words might be the understatement of the century.She hands me a cold beer.It doesn’t escape my attention that it’s the brand I always drink.She remembers.Since having her back in my life, everything has just clicked into place.Does she realize that?Does she feel the same emotions that I feel?

“You can say that again,” I mutter, twisting off the top, taking a deep pull.

“No sign of Wolf?”

“Not one.He could already be headed to Chicago,” I mutter, frustrated because I was hoping to catch this motherfucker and finally giving Devil and Torrent some good news.

“But, if he didn’t get the information from the church, he wouldn’t know to do that, right?”

“Yeah, I guess so.It just doesn’t make any sense that he would disappear.”

“Maybe he’s tired.You said it had been over a year.Maybe he just decided enough is enough,” she suggests.

“He’s not the type to give up.If he thought he could do something to cause trouble for Devil or Torrent, he’d move heaven and earth to do exactly that.He’s as fucking twisted as they come.”

“So, you think he’s still in town.”

“I’d bet good money on it,” I reply.

“Well, if what you say is true, he’ll show up again, Liam.You know that.”

“Yeah, I do.That doesn’t mean I like sitting around here, holding my damn dick in my hand.I hate waiting for this twisted asshole to make a move.”

“I don’t know,” Ellie whispers, leaning in closer to me.“It doesn’t sound so bad being stuck holding your dick in my hands.”

Despite the stress and frustration of the day, I find myself grinning.

“You are a fucking tease, Eleanor Lane.”
