“Didn’t Eagle tell you what he did before inheriting this place?”

She shook her head.

“I’m going to head out,” he said without looking at her. “Enjoy your lunch.”

“Why do they call you Sunny?” she asked unable to help wanting to know.

He met her eyes before smirking. “Because I’m a ray of sunshine, of course,” he said with sarcasm dripping from his voice

She watched him leave, uncomfortable with the slight hollow feeling that seeing him walk away left inside her.
