“I’m n?—”
“You are, and I won’t hear any more of it.”
There was a knock against the wall before Tech peeked his head around.
“Hey, hi, hello,” I greeted.
He smiled. “Mornin’, Rommy. Your brother and Maya are heading off shortly. He sent me up here to grab you.” His gaze slid to his sister, face tightening. “What’s goin’ on?”
Turning to Eve, I raised my brows. As far as I was concerned, it was the best time to tell her brother about her and Quake. Ideally before she chickened out and her thoughts got the better of her. I’d happily drag her back to reality about how awesome she was.
Eve drew in a deep breath and said, “Quake and I are something.”
I smiled proudly at her before I looked back to Tech… and wondered why he grinned evilly.
CHAPTER TWELVE
QUAKE
My gaze kept swinging to the plate Rommy had left behind. Saint had told me it was hers, but she’d gone upstairs a while ago. What was she doing that kept her up there? Her food would go to waste, and she seemed like the kind of woman who would be annoyed if she didn’t get to finish a meal. She loved food just about as much as I did.
Hell, she probably loved it more based on her moans.
She’d surprised me earlier, and not about wanting to sleep with me if Eve wasn’t in the picture. It was because she’d, in her roundabout way, told me to not give up with Eve.
Could that mean they’d talked?
Did I have a chance to make Eve mine?
Christ, my gut fluttered at the thought.
Texas and Maya stopped by the table. Texas tipped his chin up. “Mornin’.”
“Are you two sure you don’t want me to come to the airport?” Low asked.
“We’ll be?—”
“Tech, wait” was yelled, and we all turned towards the stairs to see Tech striding down them with Eve and Rommy following. Rommy was grinning, but Eve looked panicked.
I stood as they got closer. “What’s goin’ on?”
“Tech, don’t?—”
My brother stopped in front of me, pulled his arm back, and punched me in the face.
“Tech!” Eve snapped.
I turned to Tech, who was up in my face. “Been itchin’ to do that for some fuckin’ time.”
“Why?” I asked hesitantly, glancing to Eve and back. My cheek stung like a bitch, but I ignored it.
She wouldn’t have said anything, right?
If she did… fuck me, but I’d be damn thrilled.
“Why?” Tech clipped. “You and my sister, ring any bells?”
I shot my wide gaze to Eve. “You told him?” I asked, smiling wide.
