“Excuse me, ma’am, I got another dress for you to try...” Renee’s voice trailed off.

Delilah froze under me, and I lifted my head and glared at Renee in the mirror.

“Leave, now,” I barked.

Eyes wide, Renee scurried off.

Fuck! What was I about to do? Fuck Delilah in the damn dressing stall?

Abruptly, I moved away from Delilah. Her face was flushed, her pupils were dilated, her breathing heavy and herlips were swollen. Just then my phone rang, and without another word, I stepped out of the stall and into the changing room, my cock still rock-hard.

It was Dominic.

“Obsidian’s in town,” he stated as soon as I answered.

“I know.”

I heard movement in the stall.

“When did you find out?” Dominic’s voice was clipped. “And why didn’t you mention it?”

“About two days ago. He was also involved in Eso’s death, and I’m positive the deaths of Eso’s boys who came to demand the protection fee, too. Vega said they were found slaughtered.” I kept my voice low.

“Do you know why?”

“No, idea. But my boys are on it.”

“And why didn’t you mention he was in town?”

“Because I didn’t think it mattered. I have my boys looking into him and the reason he's here. I didn’t see the need in worrying everyone unnecessarily.”

“Seb,” Dominic warned, “as soon as you found out, you should’ve told me. You should’ve told us that he was in town. After what happened between us and Obsidian, we all have to watch our backs. He may not be here for us, but still be cautious.” Dominic continued, “And, let me know what your guys find out about Eso’s death.”

“Will do.”

“Good.”

The line went dead.

Delilah had stepped out of the dressing room, the pile of dresses clutched in her hands, looking at me nervously.

“We’ll only be taking the red dress you just had on.”

She nodded, her fingers trembling as she removed it from the pile. I opened the door of the changing room and allowed Deliah to exit first. As we made our way to the register, I noticed Renee was nowhere in sight.

Smart girl.

After paying, we made our way outside and I helped her into the vehicle.

“I won’t be driving back with you. Something came up.”

I didn’t miss the look of disappointment that flashed across her face as I shut the door and hopped into the SUV parked next to it.

“Follow them and make sure they get home safe, then take me to Lunaire,” I ordered the driver.

An hour later, I was on a video conference call with my brothers. Dominic thought it wise to let everyone else know that Obsidian was in town.

“Do you think Obsidian knew that you and Eso had a history together?” Axel asked.
