to everyone he
wasn't a danger. Besides the fact that if he did—which I doubted—try anything,
the house was already full of mean-looking people who’d take him down. But it
was also a sense that he wouldn’t have the heart to hurt anyone.
     He
straightened, fixed his clothes on his lean body, turned to Blue, and glared.
“Well, really. I like a bit of roughness, but only in bed, honey.”
     Blue
snapped, “Fuck off.”
     I
giggled; I couldn't help it. Blue turned a fierce glare on me, but my giggle
also brought the attention of our guest.
     “Well,
spank me. You must be Zara.” He smiled.
     My
eyes widened. Talon stepped in front of me and said, “You do not speak to her
or look at her, until you tell me who the fuck you are.”
     “Don't
get you knickers in a bunch, love muffin.” He looked over Talon's shoulder to
me. “He is lickably-‘licious, sweetheart.”
     “I
think I love this guy,” Deanna said.
     He
faced Deanna. “Thanks, doll, aren't you gorgeous too. I'm sure the feeling will
be mutual.”
     “Fuck.”
Talon made a beeline for the guy, who started backing up quickly.
     “Whoa,
hold up, Hercules. I'm just making friends here.”
     “Tell
me who the fuck you are or my fist—”
     “Julian?”
The room turned to see a startled Mattie.
     Talon
stopped his pursuit and stalked back to me. His arms wound around my middle
again.
     “Hell,
I think I just soiled myself.” Julian sighed.
     “What
are you doing here?” Mattie asked.
     “Who
is he?” Talon glared at Mattie.
     “A...a
friend.”
     “Seriously,
dickface? You forgot the boy in front of that friend. Or is it because
you've found your sister and a house full of Chippendales that I'm suddenly a memory?”
     Mattie,
with an outstretched hand, said, “No, no. It's nothing like that.”
     “Whatever,”
Julian harrumphed, crossed his arms over his chest, and ignored my brother’s
gaze.
     “Oh,
this is exciting.” I smiled and wiggled my way out of Talon's hold; I walked
over to Julian. “It's so nice to meet you.” I hugged him. “Mattie only got here
last night. I had a little breakdown, but I'm sure if that hadn't happened he
would have told me all about you.”
     “Well,
aren't you just beautiful? Thank you, precious, and I'm so sorry for your loss.
I understand Mattie wanting to find you and tell you himself, but to leave me
behind? Nope.” He shook his head. “That just doesn't jive with me.” He leaned
in and whispered, “I think he was worried how you’d take to him being gay.” He
stood straighter and smiled. “But you're handling it just fine and dandy. Now
tell me, cupcake, how in God's name have you got a house full of orgasmic men?”
     I
grinned and pointed to Talon. “That one thinks he has some claim on me because
he stuck his tongue in my mouth yesterday. He's their head honcho.”
     “Fuck
me.” Talon looked to the ceiling.
     “I'll
take you up on that, Iron Man,” Julian said with a flutter of his eyelashes.
     “Julian!”
Mattie gasped. “Sorry! He’s sorry, he didn’t mean it.”
     “Christ,
enough. What the hell am I thinkin'?” Talon asked.
     I
put my hands on my hips and glared at him. “I certainly don't know. But, I can
easily fix that and leave.”
     “Say
or think that one more time, I'll take you to bed and fuck some sense into you.”
     Julian
squeaked beside me. “He sounds serious.”
     I
looked at Julian and rolled my eyes. “He probably is.”
     “Everyone
shut it. We need this shit sorted.”
     “He's
reeeeal bossy too,” I said to Julian.
     “ Kitten, ”
Talon growled.
     “All
right, jeepers.” I grabbed Julian's hand and led him over to the couch. The
silently watching Violet and Warden moved to stand near Talon across from us.
     Julian
sat between Deanna and me, and Mattie breathed deeply and plopped himself on
the edge of the couch.
     “Hey,
I'm Julian.” He held his hand out to Deanna.
     “Deanna.”
She gave him a chin
