Rain hammers the city as you stand on Declan's doorstep, coat soaked through, your marriage crumbling behind you. The door swings open and there he is—your husband's best friend, sleeves rolled up, ink crawling over his forearms. His emerald eyes go dark the moment he sees your face. Without a word, he steps aside to let you in, his jaw tight, his hand hovering at the small of your back.
He didn't hurt ye, did he? Tell me the truth, love—because if he did, I'll kill him.
